Exodus 26
26
1 MOREOVER, YOU shall make the tabernacle with ten curtains; of fine twined linen, and blue and purple and scarlet [stuff], with cherubim skillfully embroidered shall you make them.
2 The length of one curtain shall be twenty-eight cubits and the breadth of one curtain four cubits; each of the curtains shall measure the same.
3 The five curtains shall be coupled to one another, and the other five curtains shall be coupled to one another.
4 And you shall make loops of blue on the edge of the last curtain in the first set, and likewise in the second set.
5 Fifty loops you shall make on the one curtain and fifty loops on the edge of the last curtain that is in the second coupling or set, so that the loops on one correspond to the loops on the other.
6 And you shall make fifty clasps of gold and fasten the curtains together with the clasps; then the tabernacle shall be one whole.
7 And make curtains of goats' hair to be a [second] covering over the tabernacle; eleven curtains shall you make.
8 One curtain shall be thirty cubits long and four cubits wide; and the eleven curtains shall all measure the same.
9 You shall join together five curtains by themselves and six curtains by themselves, and shall double over the sixth curtain in the front of the tabernacle [to make a closed door].
10 And make fifty loops on the edge of the outmost curtain in the one set and fifty loops on the edge of the outmost curtain in the second set.
11 You shall make fifty clasps of bronze and put the clasps into the loops and couple the tent together, that it may be one whole.
12 The surplus that remains of the tent curtains, the half curtain that remains, shall hang over the back of the tabernacle.
13 And the cubit on the one side and the cubit on the other side of what remains in the length of the curtains of the tent shall hang over the sides of the tabernacle, on this side and that side, to cover it.
14 You shall make a [third] covering for the tent of rams' skins tanned red, and a [fourth] covering above that of dolphin or porpoise skins.
15 And you shall make the upright frame for the tabernacle of boards of acacia wood.
16 Ten cubits shall be the length of a board and a cubit and a half shall be the breadth of one board.
17 Make two tenons in each board for dovetailing and fitting together; so shall you do for all the tabernacle boards.
18 And make the boards for the tabernacle: twenty boards for the south side;
19 And you shall make forty silver sockets under the twenty boards, two sockets under each board for its two tenons.
20 And for the north side of the tabernacle there shall be twenty boards
21 And their forty silver sockets, two sockets under each board.
22 For the back or west side of the tabernacle you shall make six boards.
23 Make two boards for the corners of the tabernacle in the rear on both sides.
24 They shall be coupled down below and coupled together on top with one ring. Thus shall it be for both of them; they shall form the two corners.
25 And that will be eight boards and their sockets of silver, sixteen sockets, two sockets under each board.
26 And you shall make bars of acacia wood: five for the boards of one side,
27 And five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the rear end of the tabernacle, for the back wall to the west.
28 And the middle bar halfway up the boards shall pass through from end to end.
29 You shall overlay the boards with gold and make their rings of gold to hold the bars and overlay the bars with gold.
30 You shall erect the tabernacle after the plan of it shown you on the mountain.
31 And make a veil of blue, purple, and scarlet [stuff] and fine twined linen, skillfully worked with cherubim on it.
32 You shall hang it on four pillars of acacia wood overlaid with gold, with gold hooks, on four sockets of silver.
33 And you shall hang the veil from the clasps and bring the ark of the Testimony into place within the veil; and the veil shall separate for you the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place.
34 And you shall put the mercy seat on the ark of the Testimony in the Most Holy Place.
35 And you shall set the table [for the showbread] outside the veil [in the Holy Place] on the north side and the lampstand opposite the table on the south side of the tabernacle.
36 You shall make a hanging [to form a screen] for the door of the tent of blue, purple, and scarlet [stuff] and fine twined linen, embroidered. [John 10:9.]
37 You shall make five pillars of acacia wood to support the hanging curtain and overlay them with gold; their hooks shall be of gold, and you shall cast five [base] sockets of bronze for them.

Exodus 26
26
Curtains
1“Moreover you are to make the Tabernacle with ten curtains of fine woven linen, of blue , purple and scarlet, with cheruvim made by the work of a skillful craftsman.
2The length of each curtain is to be 28 cubits, and the width of each curtain four cubits. All the curtains are to have the same measure.
3Five curtains are to be coupled together one to another, and the other five curtains are also to be coupled one to another.
4Also make loops of violet on the edge of the one curtain that is outermost in the first set, and do likewise within the edge of the curtain that is outermost in the second set.
5You are to make 50 loops in the first curtain and 50 loops on the edge of the curtain that is in the second set. The loops are to be opposite one another.
6Then make 50 clasps of gold, and couple the curtains one to another with the clasps, so that the Tabernacle may be one piece.
7“You are to make curtains of goat hair for a tent over the Tabernacle, 11 curtains in all.
8The length of each curtain is to be 30 cubits and the width of each curtain four cubits. The eleven curtains are to have the same measurement.
9You are to couple five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves, and double over the sixth curtain in the forefront of the tent.
10Then make 50 loops on the edge of the one curtain that is outermost in the first set, along with 50 loops on the edge of the curtain that is outermost in the second set.
11Make 50 bronze clasps, put them into the loops, and couple the tent together, so that it may be one.
12As for the overhanging part that remains of the tent curtains, the half curtain that remains is to hang over the back of the Tabernacle.
13The extra cubit on one side, as well as the cubit on the other side, which remains in the length of the curtains of the tent, is to hang over the sides of the Tabernacle on each side, to cover it.
14You are to make a covering for the tent of ram skins, dyed red, and a covering of sealskins above.
15“You are to make the framework of boards for the Tabernacle from acacia wood, standing upright.
16The length of each board is to be 10 cubits by one and a half cubits wide.
17There are to be two supports in each board, joined one to another. Do this for all the boards of the Tabernacle.
18You are to make the 20 boards for the south side of the Tabernacle,
19and 40 silver bases underneath the 20 boards. Two bases go underneath one board for its supports and two bases under another board for its supports.
20Likewise, for the second side of the Tabernacle, on the north side, there are to be 20 boards,
21with their 40 bases of silver. Two bases go under one board and two bases under the next board.
22For the back part of the Tabernacle, westward, you are to make six boards.
23Make two boards for the corners of the Tabernacle on the back side.
24They are also to be doubled at the bottom, and in the same way joined at the top by the first ring. It is to be this way for them both, and they will provide for the two corners.
25So there will be eight boards, with 16 silver bases, two bases under each board.
26“Also make crossbeams of acacia wood, five for the boards on one side of the Tabernacle,
27five for the boards on the other side of the Tabernacle, and five for the boards on the back part of the Tabernacle to the west.
28The middle crossbeam in the center of the boards will pass through from end to end.
29Then overlay the boards with gold, and make their rings from gold as holders for the crossbeams, and overlay the crossbeams with gold.
30“You are to raise up the Tabernacle according to the plan which you were shown on the mountain.
31“Make a fine woven linen curtain of blue, purple and scarlet, with cheruvim. It is to be the work of a skillful craftsman.
32You are to hang it on four pillars of acacia overlaid with gold, their hooks being made of gold, atop four bases of silver.
33You are to hang the curtain under the clasps, and bring the Ark within the curtain of the Testimony. The parokhet will divide for you between the Holy Place and the Holy of Holies.
34“Then you are to put the atonement cover on the Ark of the Testimony in the Holy of Holies.
35You shall set the table outside the curtain, and the menorah opposite the table on the side of the Tabernacle toward the south. You are to put the table on the north side.
36“For the entrance of the tent, also make a screen of blue, purple and scarlet, finely twisted linen, the work of a color weaver.
37You are also to make for the screen five pillars of acacia, and overlay them with gold. Their hooks are to be made of gold, and you are to cast five bases of bronze for them.
