Exodus 36
36
1 BEZALEL AND Aholiab and every wisehearted man in whom the Lord has put wisdom and understanding to know how to do all the work for the service of the sanctuary shall work according to all that the Lord has commanded.
2 And Moses called Bezalel and Aholiab and every able and wisehearted man in whose mind the Lord had put wisdom and ability, everyone whose heart stirred him up to come to do the work;
3 And they received from Moses all the freewill offerings which the Israelites had brought for doing the work of the sanctuary, to prepare it for service. And they continued to bring him freewill offerings every morning.
4 And all the wise and able men who were doing the work on the sanctuary came, every man from the work he was doing,
5 And they said to Moses, The people bring much more than enough for doing the work which the Lord commanded to do.
6 So Moses commanded and it was proclaimed in all the camp, Let no man or woman do anything more for the sanctuary offering. So the people were restrained from bringing,
7 For the stuff they had was sufficient to do all the work and more.
8 And all the able and wisehearted men among them who did the work on the tabernacle made ten curtains of fine twined linen and blue, purple, and scarlet [stuff], with cherubim skillfully worked on them.
9 The length of each curtain was twenty-eight cubits and its breadth four cubits; all the curtains were one size.
10 [Bezalel] coupled five curtains one to another and the other five curtains he coupled one to another.
11 And he made loops of blue on the outer edge of the last curtain in the first set; this he did also on the inner edge of the first curtain in the second set.
12 Fifty loops he made in the one curtain and fifty loops in the edge of the curtain which was the second set; the loops were opposite one another.
13 And he made fifty clasps of gold and coupled the curtains together with the clasps so that the tabernacle became one unit.
14 And he made eleven curtains of goats' hair for a tent over the tabernacle.
15 The length of one curtain was thirty cubits and four cubits was the breadth; the eleven curtains were of equal size.
16 And he coupled five curtains by themselves and the other six curtains by themselves.
17 And he made fifty loops on the outmost edge of the curtain to be coupled and fifty loops he made on the inner edge of the second curtain to be coupled.
18 He made fifty clasps of bronze to couple the tent together into one whole.
19 He made a covering for the tent of rams' skins tanned red, and above it a covering of dolphin or porpoise skins.
20 He made boards of acacia wood for the upright framework of the tabernacle.
21 The length of a board was ten cubits and the breadth one cubit and a half.
22 Each board had two tenons (projections) to fit into a mortise to form a clutch; he did this for all the boards of the tabernacle.
23 And he made thus the boards [for frames] for the tabernacle: twenty boards for the south side,
24 And he made under the twenty boards forty sockets or bases of silver, two sockets under one board for its two tenons or hands, and two sockets under another board for its two tenons.
25 For the other side of the tabernacle, the north side, he made twenty boards
26 And their forty sockets or bases of silver, two sockets under [the end of] each board.
27 And for the rear or west side of the tabernacle he made six [frame] boards.
28 And two boards he made for each corner of the tabernacle in the rear.
29 They were separate below but linked together at the top with one ring; thus he made both of them in both corners.
30 There were eight boards with sixteen sockets or bases of silver, and under [the end of] each board two sockets.
31 He made bars of acacia wood, five for the [frame] boards of the one side of the tabernacle,
32 And five bars for the boards of its other side, and five bars for the boards at the rear or west side.
33 And he made the middle bar pass through halfway up the boards from one end to the other.
34 He overlaid the boards and the bars with gold and made their rings of gold as places for the bars.
35 And he made the veil of blue, purple, and scarlet [stuff] and fine twined linen, with cherubim skillfully worked. [Matt. 27:50, 51; Heb. 10:19-22.]
36 For [the veil] he made four pillars of acacia [wood] and overlaid them with gold; their hooks were of gold, and he cast for them four sockets or bases of silver.
37 And he made a screen for the tent door of blue, purple, and scarlet [stuff] and fine twined linen, embroidered,
38 And he made the five pillars of it with their hooks, and overlaid their ornamental tops and joinings with gold, but their five sockets were of bronze.

Exodus 36
36
More Than Enough!
1“So Bezalel and Oholiab are to work, along with every wise-hearted man in whom Adonai has placed insight and understanding to know how to perform all the labor for the service of the Sanctuary, according to everything Adonai has commanded.”
2Then Moses called Bezalel, Oholiab and all the wise-hearted men in whose minds Adonai had set wisdom, along with everyone whose heart stirred him up to come do the work.
3They received from Moses the entire offering that Bnei-Yisrael had brought for the work of the service of the Sanctuary, to build it. They brought freewill offerings to him morning after morning.
4Then all the skilled men who were doing all the work of the Sanctuary came, one by one from the work he was doing,
5and said to Moses, “The people are bringing much more than enough for the work of this construction that Adonai has commanded to be done.”
6So Moses gave an order, and they proclaimed it throughout the camp saying, “Let neither man nor woman make anything else as an offering for the Sanctuary.” So the people were restrained from bringing more.
7For the work material they had was sufficient for all the work, with much left over.
8So all the wise-hearted men among them did the work. They made the Tabernacle with ten curtains of finely twisted linen, along with blue, purple and scarlet, with cheruvim—the work of a skillful craftsman.
9The length of each curtain was 28 cubits and the width of each curtain was four cubits. All the curtains had one measure.
10Then he coupled five curtains to one another, and the other five curtains he also coupled together.
11He made blue loops on the edge of the curtain that was outermost within the first set. He did the same along the edge of the curtain that was outermost in the second set.
12He made 50 loops in one curtain and 50 loops on the edge of the curtain that was in the second set, so that the loops were opposite to one another.
13Also he made 50 clasps of gold and coupled the curtains one to another with the clasps, so the Tabernacle was one.
14Then he made curtains from goat hair for a tent over the Tabernacle. He made 11 curtains.
15The length of each curtain was 30 cubits, and the width of each was four cubits. The 11 curtains had one measure.
16He coupled five curtains by themselves, and six other curtains by themselves.
17He made 50 loops on the edge of the curtain that was outermost in the first set and 50 loops on the edge of the curtain that was outermost in the second set.
18Also he made 50 bronze clasps to couple the tent together, so that it would be one.
19Then he made a covering for the tent of ram skins, dyed red, along with a covering of sealskins above.
20He also made the framework of boards for the Tabernacle from acacia wood, standing upright.
21The length of a board was ten cubits, the width was a cubit and a half.
22Each board had two supports, joined one to another. He did this for all the boards of the Tabernacle.
23So he built the boards for the Tabernacle, 20 boards from the south side southward.
24And he made 40 silver bases under the 20 boards, two bases under one board for its two supports, and two bases under another board for its two supports.
25Also for the second side of the Tabernacle, on the north side, he made 20 boards,
26along with their 40 silver bases, two under one board and two under the next.
27For the back part of the Tabernacle westward he made six boards.
28He also made two boards for the corners of the Tabernacle in the back,
29so that they could be doubled underneath, and in same way to be fixed to the top, at the first ring. He did this for both of them at the two corners.
30So there were eight boards, along with their silver bases, 16 in all, two under each board.
31Then he made crossbars from acacia wood, five for the boards on one side of the Tabernacle,
32five for the boards on the other side of the Tabernacle, and five crossbars for the boards of the Tabernacle for the back part, westward.
33He built the middle crossbar to pass through, in the center of the boards, from one end to the other.
34He overlaid the boards with gold and made golden rings for them, as holders for the crossbars, and overlaid the crossbars with gold.
35Then he made the curtain of blue, purple, scarlet and finely twisted linen, along with the cheruvim, the work of a skillful craftsman.
36He made four pillars of acacia, and overlaid them with gold, having golden hooks, and he cast four silver bases for them.
37Then he made a parokhet for the entrance of the tent, of blue, purple, scarlet and finely twisted linen, the work of a color weaver.
38Also he made the five pillars with their hooks, and overlaid their capitals and bands with gold, along with their five bronze bases.
