Exodus Chapter 26

Exodus Chapter 26
1 Afterward thou shalt make the
tabernacle with ten curtains of fine
twined linen, and blue silk, and purple,
and scarlet: and in them thou shalt make
cherubims of broidered work.
2 The length of one curtain shall be eight
and twenty cubits, and the breadth of one
curtain, four cubits: every one of the
curtains shall have one measure. 3 Five
curtains shall be coupled one to another:
and the other five curtains shall be
coupled one to another.
4 And thou shalt make strings of blue
silk upon the edge of the one curtain,
which is in the selvedge of the coupling:
and likewise shalt thou make in the edge
of the other curtain in the selvedge, in
the second coupling. 5 Fifty strings shalt
thou make in one curtain, and fifty strings
shalt thou make in the edge of the
curtain, which is in the second coupling:
the strings shall be one right against
another.
6 Thou shalt make also fifty taches of
gold, and couple the curtains one to
another with the taches, and it shall be
one tabernacle.
7 Also thou shalt make curtains of goats’
hair, to be a covering upon the
tabernacle: thou shalt make them to the
number of eleven curtains. 8 The length
of a curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the
breadth of a curtain four cubits: the
eleven curtains shall be of one measure.
9 And thou shalt couple five curtains by
themselves, and the six curtains by
themselves: but thou shalt double the
sixth curtain upon the forefront of the
covering.
10 And thou shalt make fifty strings in
the edge of one curtain, in the selvedge
of the coupling, and fifty strings in the
edge of the other curtain in the second
coupling.
11 Likewise thou shalt make fifty taches
of brass, and fasten them on the strings,
and shalt couple the covering together,
that it may be one. 12 And the remnant
that resteth in the curtains of the
covering, even the half curtain that
resteth, shall be left at the backside of
the tabernacle, 13 That the cubit on the
one side, and the cubit on the other side
of that which is left in the length of the
curtains of the covering, may remain on
either side of the tabernacle to cover it.
14 Moreover, for that covering thou
shalt make a covering of rams’ skins
dyed red, and a covering of badgers’
skins above.
15 Also thou shalt make boards for the
tabernacle of shittim wood to stand up.
16 Ten cubits shall be the length of a
board, and a cubit and an half cubit the
breadth of one board.
17 Two tenons shall be in one board set
in order as the feet of a ladder, one
against another: thus shalt thou make for
all the boards of the tabernacle. 18 And
thou shalt make boards for the
tabernacle, even twenty boards on the
south side, even full south.
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 In like manner on the other side of the
tabernacle toward the north side shall be
twenty boards,
21 And their forty sockets of silver, two
sockets under one board, and two
sockets under another board.
22 And on the side of the tabernacle,
toward the west shalt thou make six
boards.
23 Also two boards shalt thou make in
the corners of the tabernacle in the two
sides.
24 Also they shall be joined beneath,
and likewise they shall be joined above
to a ring: thus shall it be for them two:
they shall be for the two corners. 25 So
they shall be eight boards having sockets
of silver, even sixteen sockets, that is,
two sockets under one board, and two
sockets under another board.
26 Then thou shalt make five bars of
shittim wood for the boards of one side
of the tabernacle,
27 And five bars for the boards of the
other side of the tabernacle: also five
bars for the boards of the side of the
tabernacle toward the west side. 28 And
the middle bar shall go through the midst
of the boards, from end to end.
29 And thou shalt cover the boards with
gold, and make their rings of gold, for
places for the bars, and thou shalt cover
the bars with gold.
30 So thou shalt rear up the tabernacle,
according to the fashion thereof, which
was showed thee in the mount.
31 Moreover, thou shalt make a veil of
blue silk, and purple, and scarlet, and
fine twined linen: thou shalt make it of
broidered work with cherubims. 32 And
thou shalt hang it upon four pillars of
shittim wood covered with gold, (whose
hooks shall be of gold) standing upon
four sockets of silver. 33 Afterward thou
shalt hang the veil on the hooks, that thou
mayest bring in thither, that is (within
the veil) the ark of the testimony: and the
veil shall make you a separation
between the holy place and the most holy
place. 34 Also 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 veil, and the candlestick over against
the table on the south side of the
tabernacle, and thou shalt set the table on
the north side.
36 Also thou shalt make an hanging for
the door of the tabernacle of blue silk,
and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined
linen wrought with needle. 37 And thou
shalt make for the hanging five pillars of
shittim, and cover them with gold: their
heads shall be of gold, and thou shalt
cast five sockets of brass for them.
