Altar for Sacrifices
1He then made the altar for burnt offering from acacia wood. It was square, five cubits long, five cubits wide, and three cubits high.
2He also made the horns on the four corners from one piece, and overlaid it with bronze.
3Then he made all the utensils for the altar—the pots and the shovels, the basins, the forks and the fire pans. He made all the utensils from bronze.
4He also made a bronze grating net for the altar, under the ledge around it, reaching halfway up.
5He cast four rings for the four ends of the bronze grating, to be holders for the poles.
6He made the poles of acacia wood, and overlaid them with bronze.
7Then he put the poles into the rings on the sides of the altar to carry it, and he made it hollow, out of boards.
8He made the basin and the base from bronze, with mirrors from the women who served at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting.
9Then he made the courtyard. For the south side the hangings of the courtyard were finely twisted linen, 100 cubits long.
10There were 20 pillars and 20 bronze bases. The hooks of the pillars and their bands were silver.
11Likewise, for the north side, 100 cubits long, with 20 bronze pillars and bases, and the hooks for the pillars and their bands were silver.
12For the west side the hangings were 50 cubits, with ten pillars and their ten bases, as well as the hooks for the pillars and their silver bands.
13Likewise, for the east side, 50 cubits long.
14The hangings for one side of the gate were fifteen cubits, with three pillars and their bases.
15Similarly for the other side, on either side of the gate of the courtyard were hangings of 15 cubits, with their three pillars and three bases.
16All the hangings of the courtyard all around were of finely twisted linen.
17The bases for the pillars were bronze, the hooks of the pillars and their bands were silver, the overlaying of their capitals were silver, and all the pillars of the courtyard were ringed with silver.
18The curtain for the gate of the courtyard was the work of a color weaver, of blue, purple, scarlet and finely twisted linen. It was 20 cubits long and five cubits high, like the hangings of the courtyard.
19Their four pillars and four bases were bronze. Their hooks along with the overlaying of their capitals and their bands were silver.
20All the pegs of the Tabernacle and the courtyard all around were bronze.
21These are the accounts of the Tabernacle of the Testimony, as they were recorded according to the commandment of Moses, by the service of the Levites, under the hand of Ithamar son of Aaron the kohen.
22Bezalel son of Uri son of Hur of the tribe of Judah made all that Adonai commanded Moses.
23Along with him was Oholiab son of Ahisamach of the tribe of Dan, a craftsman, a skillful workman, and a weaver of colors, in blue, purple, scarlet and fine linen.
24The entirety of the gold that was used for the work of the Sanctuary, including the gold of the offering, was 29 talents and 730 shekels, according to the Sanctuary shekel.
25The silver from those numbered from the congregation was 100 talents and 1,775 shekels, according to the Sanctuary shekel—
26that is, a beka, or half a shekel per head, according to the shekel of the Sanctuary, for everyone who was recorded, from 20 years old and upward, for 603,550 men.
27The 100 talents of silver were for casting the bases of the Sanctuary, and the bases for the inner curtain, 100 bases for 100 talents, a talent for each base.
28The 1,775 shekels he made into hooks for the pillars, overlaid their capitals, and made bands for them.
29The bronze from the offering was 70 talents and 2,400 shekels.
30With it he made the bases for the entrance of the Tent of Meeting, the bronze altar, the bronze grating, all the utensils for the altar,
31along with the bases of the courtyard all around, the bases for the gate of the courtyard, as well as all the pegs of the Tabernacle and the pegs for the courtyard all around.

Making the Bronze Altar and the Basin
1And he made the burnt-offering altar of acacia wood; its length was five cubits, and its width was five cubits—it was square—and its height was three cubits. 2And he made its horns on its four corners; its horns were of one piece with it;#Literally “from it” and he overlaid it with bronze. 3And he made all the equipment of the altar—the pots and the shovels and the sprinkling bowls and the forks#1 Samuel 2:13 mentions a fork with “three teeth” used by priests and the fire pans—all its equipment he made with bronze. 4And he made for the altar a grating, a work of bronze network under its ledge, below, up to its middle. 5And he cast four rings on the four ends of the bronze grating as holders#Literally “houses” for the poles. 6And he made the poles of acacia wood, and he overlaid them with bronze. 7And he put the poles into the rings on the sides of the altar to carry it with them. He made it hollow with boards.
8And he made the basin of bronze and its stand of bronze from the mirrors of the serving women who served at the entrance of the tent of assembly.
Making the Courtyard
9And he made the courtyard; for the south#Or “southward southward” side were the hangings of the court of finely twisted linen, one hundred cubits, 10with their twenty pillars and their twenty bases of bronze and with the hooks of the pillars and their bands of silver. 11And for the north side the hangings were one hundred cubits with their twenty pillars and their twenty bases of bronze and with the hooks of the pillars and their bands of silver. 12And for the west#Literally “sea” side fifty cubits of hangings with their ten pillars and their ten bases and with the hooks of the pillars and their bands of silver. 13And for the eastward side, toward sunrise, fifty cubits; 14fifteen cubits of hangings were to the shoulder,#Or “side,” referring to the span on one side of the courtyard’s entry with their three pillars and their three bases, 15and for the second shoulder#Or “side,” referring to the span on one side of the courtyard’s entry on each side#Literally “from this and from this” of the gate of the courtyard were fifteen cubits of hangings, with their three pillars and their three bases. 16All the hangings of the courtyard all around were finely twisted linen, 17and the bases for the pillars were bronze, the hooks of the pillars and their bands were silver, and the overlay of their tops was silver, and all the pillars of the courtyard were banded with silver.
18And the screen of the gate of the courtyard was the work of an embroiderer, with blue and purple and crimson yarns and finely twisted linen; it was twenty cubits long and five cubits high,#Literally “height in width” like the hangings of the courtyard, 19and with their four pillars and their four bases of bronze, with their silver hooks and with their tops and their bands of silver. 20And all the pegs#Literally “hands” for the tabernacle and for the courtyard all around were bronze.
Amounts of Gold, Silver, and Bronze Used
21These are the records of the tabernacle, the tabernacle of the testimony, which were recorded at the command of#Literally “mouth of” Moses, the work of the Levites, in the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. 22And Bezalel the son of Uri the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, did all that Yahweh commanded Moses. 23And with him was Oholiab the son of Ahisamach of the tribe of Dan, a skilled craftsman and a designer and an embroiderer with the blue and with the purple and with the crimson yarns and with the linen.
24And all the gold used for the work, in the work of the sanctuary, it was the gold of the wave offering—twenty-nine talents and seven hundred and thirty shekels, according to the sanctuary shekel.
25And the silver recorded from the community was a hundred talents and a thousand seven hundred and seventy-five shekels, according to the sanctuary shekel. 26It was a bekah for the individual, the half shekel according to the sanctuary shekel, for everyone who was counted,#Literally “all of the going over to the being counted” from twenty years old#Literally “a son of twenty years” and above, for six hundred and three thousand five hundred and fifty. 27And it was one hundred talents of the silver to cast the bases of the sanctuary and the bases of the curtain—one hundred bases for one hundred talents of silver, a talent for each base. 28And from the thousand seven hundred and seventy-five shekels he made hooks for the pillars, and he overlaid their tops, and he made bands for them.
29And the bronze of the wave offering was seventy talents and two thousand four hundred shekels. 30And he made with it the bases of the entrance of the tent of assembly and the bronze altar and the bronze grating that belonged to it and all the equipment of the altar 31and the bases of the courtyard all around and the bases of the gate of the courtyard and all the pegs#Literally “hands” of the tabernacle and all the pegs#Literally “hands” of the courtyard all around.
