27 |
| 1 | And
thou shalt make an altar of shittim wood, five cubits long, and five cubits
broad; the altar shall be foursquare: and the height thereof shall be three
cubits. |
| 2 | And thou shalt
make the horns of it upon the four corners thereof: his horns shall be of the
same: and thou shalt overlay it with brass. |
| 3 | And thou shalt make his pans to receive his ashes, and
his shovels, and his basins, and his fleshhooks, and his firepans: all the
vessels thereof thou shalt make of brass. |
| 4 | And thou shalt make for it a grate of network of brass;
and upon the net shalt thou make four brazen rings in the four corners
thereof. |
| 5 | And thou shalt
put it under the compass of the altar beneath, that the net may be even to the
midst of the altar. |
| 6 | And
thou shalt make staves for the altar, staves of shittim wood, and overlay them
with brass. |
| 7 | And the
staves shall be put into the rings, and the staves shall be upon the two sides
of the altar, to bear it. |
| 8 |
Hollow with boards shalt thou make it: as it was showed thee in the mount,
so shall they make it. |
| 9 |
And thou shalt make the court of the tabernacle: for the south side southward
there shall be hangings for the court of fine twined linen of an hundred cubits
long for one side: |
| 10 |
And the twenty pillars thereof and their twenty sockets shall be of brass; the
hooks of the pillars and their fillets shall be of silver. |
| 11 | And likewise for the north side in
length there shall be hangings of an hundred cubits long, and his twenty
pillars and their twenty sockets of brass; the hooks of the pillars and their
fillets of silver. |
| 12 |
And for the breadth of the court on the west side shall be hangings of fifty
cubits: their pillars ten, and their sockets ten. |
|
13 | And the breadth of the court on the east side
eastward shall be fifty cubits. |
|
14 | The hangings of one side of the gate shall be fifteen cubits:
their pillars three, and their sockets three. |
| 15 | And on the other side shall be hangings fifteen cubits:
their pillars three, and their sockets three. |
| 16 | And for the gate of the court shall be an hanging of
twenty cubits, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, wrought
with needlework: and their pillars shall be four, and their sockets four. |
| 17 | All the pillars round
about the court shall be filleted with silver; their hooks shall be of silver,
and their sockets of brass. |
| 18
| The length of the court shall be an hundred cubits, and the breadth
fifty every where, and the height five cubits of fine twined linen, and their
sockets of brass. |
| 19 | All
the vessels of the tabernacle in all the service thereof, and all the pins
thereof, and all the pins of the court, shall be of brass. |
| 20 | And thou shalt command the children of
Israel, that they bring thee pure oil olive beaten for the light, to cause the
lamp to burn always. |
| 21 |
In the tabernacle of the congregation without the vail, which is before the
testimony, Aaron and his sons shall order it from evening to morning before the
LORD: it shall be a statute for ever unto their generations on the behalf of
the children of Israel. |
