The Tabernacle Completed
1 AThen he made the altar of burnt offering of acacia wood, five
1cubits
2long, and five cubits
3wide, square, and three cubits
4high.
2 He made its horns on its four corners, its horns
1being
of one piece with it, and he overlaid it with
2bronze.
3 He made all the utensils of the altar, the pails and the shovels and the basins, the flesh hooks and the firepans; he made all its utensils of bronze.
4 He made for the altar a grating of bronze network beneath, under its ledge, reaching halfway up.
5 He cast four rings on the four ends of the bronze grating
as holders for the poles.
6 He made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze.
7 He inserted the poles into the rings on the sides of the altar, with which to carry it. He made it hollow with planks.
8 AMoreover, he made the laver of bronze with its base of bronze,
1from the mirrors of the serving women who served at the doorway of the tent of meeting.
9 AThen he made the court:
1for the south side the hangings of the court were of fine twisted linen, one hundred cubits;
10 their twenty pillars, and their twenty
1sockets,
made of bronze; the hooks of the pillars and their
2bands
were of silver.
11 For the north side
there were one hundred cubits; their twenty pillars and their twenty
1sockets
were of bronze, the hooks of the pillars and their
2bands
were of silver.
12 For the west side
there were hangings of fifty cubits
with their ten pillars and their ten
1sockets; the hooks of the pillars and their
2bands
were of silver.
13 For the
1east side fifty cubits.
14 The hangings for the
one 1side
of the gate were fifteen cubits,
with their three pillars and their three
2sockets,
15 and so for the
1other
2side.
3On both sides of the gate of the court
were hangings of fifteen cubits,
with their three pillars and their three
4sockets.
16 All the hangings of the court all around
were of fine twisted linen.
17 The
1sockets for the pillars
were of
2bronze, the hooks of the pillars and their
3bands, of silver; and the overlaying of their tops, of silver, and all the pillars of the court were furnished with silver
3bands.
18 The screen of the gate of the court was the work of the
1weaver, of
2blue and purple and scarlet
material and fine twisted linen. And the length
was twenty cubits and the
3height
was five cubits, corresponding to the hangings of the court.
19 Their four pillars and their four
1sockets
were of bronze; their hooks
were of silver, and the overlaying of their tops and their
2bands
were of silver.
20 All the pegs of the
1tabernacle and of the court all around
were of bronze.
The Cost of the Tabernacle
21 1This is the number of the things for the
2tabernacle, the
2tabernacle of the testimony, as they were
3numbered according to the
4command of Moses, for the service of the Levites, by the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.
22 Now
ABezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made all that the Loʀᴅ had commanded Moses.
23 With him
was AOholiab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, an engraver and a skillful workman and a
1weaver in
2blue and in purple and in scarlet
material, and fine linen.
24 All the gold that was used for the work, in all the work of the sanctuary, even the gold of the wave offering, was 29 talents and 730 shekels, according to
Athe shekel of the sanctuary.
25 AThe silver of those of the congregation who were
1numbered was 100 talents and 1,775 shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary;
26 Aa beka a head (
that is, half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary), for each one who passed over to those who were
1numbered, from twenty years old and upward, for
B603,550 men.
27 The hundred talents of silver were for casting the
1sockets of the sanctuary and the
1sockets of the veil; one hundred
1sockets for the hundred talents, a talent for a
1socket.
28 Of the 1,775
shekels, he made hooks for the pillars and overlaid their tops and made
1bands for them.
29 The bronze of the wave offering was 70 talents and 2,400 shekels.
30 With it he made the
1sockets to the doorway of the tent of meeting, and the bronze altar and its bronze grating, and all the utensils of the altar,
31 and the
1sockets of the court all around and the
1sockets of the gate of the court, and all the pegs of the
2tabernacle and all the pegs of the court all around.
