Exodus 39:30-40

30 They made the flower-shaped medallion (the holy crown) out of pure gold and engraved on it (as on a signet ring): Holy to the LORD.

31 They fastened a violet cord to it and tied it on top of the turban. They followed the LORD's instructions to Moses.

32 So all the work on the inner tent (the tent of meeting) was now done. The Israelites followed all the LORD's instructions to Moses.

33 Then they brought everything to Moses--the inner tent, the outer tent and all its furnishings, the fasteners, frames, crossbars, posts, sockets,

34 the cover made of rams' skins dyed red, the cover made of fine leather, the canopy over [the ark],

35 the ark containing the words of God's promise with its poles and the throne of mercy,

36 the table with all the dishes, the bread of the presence,

37 the pure [gold] lamp stand with its lamps in a row and all its utensils, the olive oil for the lamps,

38 the gold altar, the anointing oil, the sweet-smelling incense, the screen for the entrance to the tent,

39 the bronze altar with its bronze grate, its poles, and all its accessories, the basin with its stand,

40 the curtains for the courtyard, the posts, bases, and screen for the entrance to the courtyard, the ropes and pegs--all the equipment needed for the service of the inner tent (the tent of meeting)--
