Exodus 26:15–29

¹⁵“You are to make upright planks ^bof acacia wood ^cfor the tabernacle. ¹⁶The length of each plank is to be 15 feet, ^dand the width of each plank 27 inches. ^e17Each plank must be connected together with two tenons. Do the same for all the planks of the tabernacle. ¹⁸Make the planks for the tabernacle as follows: 20 planks for the south side, ¹⁹and make 40 silver bases under the 20 planks, two bases under the first plank for its two tenons, and two bases under the next plank for its two tenons; ²⁰20 planks for the second side of the tabernacle, the north side, ²¹along with their 40 silver bases, two bases under the first plank and two bases under each plank; ²²and make six planks for the west side of the tabernacle. ²³Make two additional planks for the two back corners of the tabernacle. ²⁴They are to be paired at the bottom, and joined together ^fat the top in a single ring. So it should be for both of them; they will serve as the two corners. ²⁵There are to be eight planks with their silver bases: 16 bases; two bases under the first plank and two bases under each plank.

²⁶“You are to make five crossbars of acacia wood for the planks on one side of the tabernacle, ²⁷five crossbars for the planks on the other side of the tabernacle, and five crossbars for the planks of the back side of the tabernacle on the west. ²⁸The central crossbar is to run through the middle of the planks from one end to the other. ²⁹Then overlay the planks with gold, and make their rings of gold as the holders for the crossbars. Also overlay the crossbars with gold.
