Five curtains shall be coupled to one another, and the other five curtains shall be coupled to one another.
Join five of these curtains together to make one long curtain, then join the other five into a second long curtain.
And you shall make loops of blue yarn on the edge of the curtain on the selvedge of one set, and likewise you shall do on the outer edge of the other curtain of the second set.
Put loops of blue yarn along the edge of the last curtain in each set.
Fifty loops you shall make in the one curtain, and fifty loops you shall make on the edge of the curtain that is on the end of the second set, that the loops may be clasped to one another.
The fifty loops along the edge of one curtain are to match the fifty loops along the edge of the other curtain.
And you shall make fifty clasps of gold, and couple the curtains together with the clasps, so that it may be one tabernacle.
Then make fifty gold clasps and fasten the long curtains together with the clasps. In this way, the Tabernacle will be made of one continuous piece.
“You shall also make curtains of goats’ hair, to be a tent over the tabernacle. You shall make eleven curtains.
“Make eleven curtains of goat-hair cloth to serve as a tent covering for the Tabernacle.
The length of each curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the width of each curtain four cubits; and the eleven curtains shall all have the same measurements.
And you shall couple five curtains by themselves and six curtains by themselves, and you shall double over the sixth curtain at the forefront of the tent.
You shall make fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that is outermost in one set, and fifty loops on the edge of the curtain of the second set.
Make fifty loops for one edge of each large curtain.
And you shall make fifty bronze clasps, put the clasps into the loops, and couple the tent together, that it may be one.
Then make fifty bronze clasps, and fasten the loops of the long curtains with the clasps. In this way, the tent covering will be made of one continuous piece.
The remnant that remains of the curtains of the tent, the half curtain that remains, shall hang over the back of the tabernacle.
And a cubit on one side and a cubit on the other side, of what remains of the length of the curtains of the tent, shall hang over the sides of the tabernacle, on this side and on that side, to cover it.
“You shall also make a covering of ram skins dyed red for the tent, and a covering of badger skins above that.
Complete the tent covering with a protective layer of tanned ram skins and a layer of fine goatskin leather.
“And for the tabernacle you shall make the boards of acacia wood, standing upright.
“For the framework of the Tabernacle, construct frames of acacia wood.
Ten cubits shall be the length of a board, and a cubit and a half shall be the width of each board.
with two pegs under each frame. Make all the frames identical.
And you shall make the boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards for the south side.
Make twenty of these frames to support the curtains on the south side of the Tabernacle.
You shall make forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards: two sockets under each of the boards for its two tenons.
Also make forty silver bases — two bases under each frame, with the pegs fitting securely into the bases.
And for the second side of the tabernacle, the north side, there shall be twenty boards
For the north side of the Tabernacle, make another twenty frames,
and their forty sockets of silver: two sockets under each of the boards.

For the far side of the tabernacle, westward, you shall make six boards.
Make six frames for the rear — the west side of the Tabernacle —
And you shall also make two boards for the two back corners of the tabernacle.
along with two additional frames to reinforce the rear corners of the Tabernacle.
These corner frames will be matched at the bottom and firmly attached at the top with a single ring, forming a single corner unit. Make both of these corner units the same way.
So there shall be eight boards with their sockets of silver — sixteen sockets — two sockets under each of the boards.
So there will be eight frames at the rear of the Tabernacle, set in sixteen silver bases — two bases under each frame.
“And you shall make bars of acacia wood: five for the boards on one side of the tabernacle,
“Make crossbars of acacia wood to link the frames, five crossbars for the north side of the Tabernacle
five bars for the boards on the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the side of the tabernacle, for the far side westward.
and five for the south side. Also make five crossbars for the rear of the Tabernacle, which will face west.
The middle bar shall pass through the midst of the boards from end to end.
The middle crossbar, attached halfway up the frames, will run all the way from one end of the Tabernacle to the other.
You shall overlay the boards with gold, make their rings of gold as holders for the bars, and overlay the bars with gold.
Overlay the frames with gold, and make gold rings to hold the crossbars. Overlay the crossbars with gold as well.
And you shall raise up the tabernacle according to its pattern which you were shown on the mountain.
“Set up this Tabernacle according to the pattern you were shown on the mountain.
“You shall make a veil woven of blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and fine woven linen. It shall be woven with an artistic design of cherubim.
“For the inside of the Tabernacle, make a special curtain of finely woven linen. Decorate it with blue, purple, and scarlet thread and with skillfully embroidered cherubim.
You shall hang it upon the four pillars of acacia wood overlaid with gold. Their hooks shall be gold, upon four sockets of silver.
Hang this curtain on gold hooks attached to four posts of acacia wood. Overlay the posts with gold, and set them in four silver bases.
And you shall hang the veil from the clasps. Then you shall bring the ark of the Testimony in there, behind the veil. The veil shall be a divider for you between the holy place and the Most Holy.
You shall put the mercy seat upon the ark of the Testimony in the Most Holy.
“Then put the Ark’s cover — the place of atonement — on top of the Ark of the Covenant inside the Most Holy Place.
You shall set the table outside the veil, and the lampstand across from the table on the side of the tabernacle toward the south; and you shall put the table on the north side.
Place the table outside the inner curtain on the north side of the Tabernacle, and place the lampstand across the room on the south side.
“You shall make a screen for the door of the tabernacle, woven of blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and fine woven linen, made by a weaver.
“Make another curtain for the entrance to the sacred tent. Make it of finely woven linen and embroider it with exquisite designs, using blue, purple, and scarlet thread.
And you shall make for the screen five pillars of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold; their hooks shall be gold, and you shall cast five sockets of bronze for them.
Craft five posts from acacia wood. Overlay them with gold, and hang the curtain from them with gold hooks. Cast five bronze bases for the posts.
