Exodus 26
1 Moreover thou shalt
make the
tabernacle with
ten curtains of fine
twined linen, and
blue, and
purple, and
scarlet : with
cherubims of
cunning work shalt thou
make them.
2 The
length of
one curtain shall be
eight and
twenty cubits, and the
breadth of
one curtain four cubits: and every one of the
curtains shall have
one measure. 3 The
five curtains shall be coupled
together one to
another; and other
five curtains shall be
coupled one to
another. 4 And thou shalt
make loops of
blue upon the
edge of the
one curtain from the
selvedge in the
coupling; and likewise shalt thou
make in the
uttermost edge of another
curtain, in the
coupling of the
second. 5 Fifty loops shalt thou
make in the
one curtain, and
fifty loops shalt thou
make in the
edge of the
curtain that is in the
coupling of the
second; that the
loops may take
hold one of
another. 6 And thou shalt
make fifty taches of
gold, and
couple the
curtains together
with the taches: and it shall be
one tabernacle. 7 And thou shalt
make curtains of
goats' hair to be a
covering upon the
tabernacle: eleven curtains shalt thou
make.
8 The
length of
one curtain shall be
thirty cubits, and the
breadth of
one curtain four cubits: and the
eleven curtains shall be all of
one measure. 9 And thou shalt
couple five curtains by themselves, and
six curtains by themselves, and shalt
double the
sixth curtain in the
forefront of the
tabernacle. 10 And thou shalt
make fifty loops on the
edge of the
one curtain that is
outmost in the
coupling, and
fifty loops in the
edge of the
curtain which
coupleth the
second. 11 And thou shalt
make fifty taches of
brass, and
put the
taches into the
loops, and
couple the
tent together, that it may be
one. 12 And the
remnant that
remaineth of the
curtains of the
tent, the
half curtain that
remaineth, shall
hang over the
backside of the
tabernacle. 13 And a
cubit on the one
side, and a
cubit on the other side of that which
remaineth in the
length of the
curtains of the
tent, it shall
hang over the
sides of the
tabernacle on this side and on that side, to
cover it.
14 And thou shalt
make a
covering for the
tent of
rams' skins dyed
red, and a
covering above of
badgers' skins. 15 And thou shalt
make boards for the
tabernacle of
shittim wood standing
up.
16 Ten cubits shall be the
length of a
board, and a
cubit and a
half shall be the
breadth of
one board. 17 Two tenons shall there be in
one board, set in
order one against
another: thus shalt thou
make for all the
boards of the
tabernacle. 18 And thou shalt
make the
boards for the
tabernacle, twenty boards on the
south side southward. 19 And thou shalt
make forty sockets of
silver under the
twenty boards; two sockets under
one board for his
two tenons, and
two sockets under
another board for his
two tenons. 20 And for the
second side of the
tabernacle on the
north side there shall be
twenty boards: 21 And their
forty sockets of
silver; two sockets under
one board, and
two sockets under
another board. 22 And for the
sides of the
tabernacle westward thou shalt
make six boards. 23 And
two boards shalt thou
make for the
corners of the
tabernacle in the two
sides. 24 And they shall be
coupled together
beneath, and they shall be
coupled together above the
head of it unto
one ring: thus shall it be for them
both; they shall be for the
two corners. 25 And they shall be
eight boards, and their
sockets of
silver, sixteen sockets; two sockets under
one board, and
two sockets under
another board. 26 And thou shalt
make bars of
shittim wood; five for the
boards of the
one side of the
tabernacle, 27 And
five bars for the
boards of the
other side of the
tabernacle, and
five bars for the
boards of the
side of the
tabernacle, for the two
sides westward. 28 And the
middle bar in the
midst of the
boards shall
reach from
end to
end. 29 And thou shalt
overlay the
boards with
gold, and
make their
rings of
gold for
places for the
bars: and thou shalt
overlay the
bars with
gold. 30 And thou shalt rear
up the
tabernacle according to the
fashion thereof which was
shewed thee in the
mount. 31 And thou shalt
make a
vail of
blue, and
purple, and
scarlet, and fine
twined linen of
cunning work: with
cherubims shall it be
made:
32 And thou shalt
hang it upon
four pillars of
shittim wood
overlaid with
gold: their
hooks shall be of
gold, upon the
four sockets of
silver. 33 And thou shalt hang
up the
vail under the
taches, that thou mayest
bring in thither
within the
vail the
ark of the
testimony: and the
vail shall
divide unto you between the
holy place and the
most holy. 34 And thou shalt
put the mercy
seat upon the
ark of the
testimony in the
most holy place.
35 And thou shalt
set the
table without the
vail, and the
candlestick over
against the
table on the
side of the
tabernacle toward the
south: and thou shalt
put the
table on the
north side. 36 And thou shalt
make an
hanging for the
door of the
tent, of
blue, and
purple, and
scarlet, and fine
twined linen, wrought with
needlework.
37 And thou shalt
make for the
hanging five pillars of
shittim wood, and
overlay them with
gold, and their
hooks shall be of
gold: and thou shalt
cast five sockets of
brass for them.
