⁸And all who were skilled of heart among the doers of the work made the tabernacle with ten curtains of finely twisted linen and blue and purple and crimson yarns, with cherubim; he made them, the work of a skilled craftsman. ⁹The length of the one curtain was twenty-eight cubits, and the width was four cubits for the one curtain; one measurement was for all the curtains. ¹⁰And he joined five of the curtains one to another,^h and five curtains he joined one to another.ⁱ ¹¹And he made loops of blue on the edge of the one curtain, at the end in the set; so he did on the edge of the end curtain in the second set. ¹²He made fifty loops on the one curtain, and he made fifty loops on the end of the curtain that was in the second set; the loops were opposite^j one to another.^k ¹³And he made fifty gold clasps and joined the curtains one to another^l with the clasps, so that the tabernacle was one.

¹⁴And he made curtains of goat hair for a tent over the tabernacle; he made them eleven curtains. ¹⁵The length of the one curtain was thirty cubits, and the width was four cubits for the one curtain; one measure was for the eleven curtains. ¹⁶And he joined five curtains together and six curtains together. ¹⁷And he made fifty loops on the edge of the end curtain in the set, and he made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain in the second set. ¹⁸And he made fifty bronze clasps for joining the tent to become one.

¹⁹And he made a covering for the tent of red-dyed ram skin and a covering of fine leather to go above.

²⁰And he made the frames^m for the tabernacle of acacia wood as uprights.ⁿ ²¹The length of the frame^o was ten cubits, and the width of the one frame^p was one and a half cubits. ²²He made two pegs^q for the one frame^r for joining one to another^s and likewise for all the frames^t of the tabernacle. ²³And he made the frames^u for the tabernacle with twenty frames^v for the south^w side. ²⁴And he made forty silver bases under the twenty frames,^x with two bases under the one frame^y for its two pegs^z and two bases under the next^a frame^b for its two pegs.^c ²⁵And for the second side of the tabernacle, the north side, he made twenty frames^d ²⁶and their forty silver bases, with two bases under the one frame^e and two bases under the next^f frame.^g

²⁷And for the rear of the tabernacle on the west^h he made six frames.ⁱ ²⁸And he made two frames^j for the tabernacle corners at the rear. ²⁹And they were double at the bottom, and they were completely together on its top to the one ring; he did likewise for the two of them, for the two corners. ³⁰And there were eight frames^k and their sixteen silver bases, two bases, two bases under the one frame.^l

³¹And he made five bars of acacia wood for the frames^m on the one side of the tabernacle, ³²and five bars for the framesⁿ on the second side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the frames^o at the rear on the west.^p ³³And he made the middle bar to run in the midst of the frames^q from end to end. ³⁴And he overlaid the frames^r with gold, and he made their rings of gold as holders^s for the bars, and he overlaid the bars with gold. ³⁵And he made the curtain of blue and purple and crimson yarns and finely twisted linen, the work of a craftsman; he made it with cherubim. ³⁶And he made for it four acacia pillars, and he overlaid them with gold, with their gold hooks, and he cast for them four silver bases.

³⁷And he made for the entrance of the tent a screen of blue and purple and crimson yarns and finely twisted linen, the work of an embroiderer, ³⁸and the five pillars and their hooks, and he overlaid their tops and their connections with gold, and their five bases were bronze.
