Exodus 26:15-30

15“Then you shall make the boards for the tabernacle of acacia wood, standing upright [as a trellis-like frame].

16The length of each board shall be ten cubits and the width of each board shall be one and a half cubits.

17Make two dovetails in each board for fitting [them] together; you shall do the same for all the tabernacle boards.

18You shall make the boards for the tabernacle [in the following quantities]: twenty boards for the south side.

19You shall make forty silver sockets under the twenty boards, two sockets under each board for its two dovetails, and two sockets under another board for its two dovetails;

20for the north side of the tabernacle there shall be twenty boards,

21and their forty silver sockets, two sockets under each board.

22For the back or west side of the tabernacle you shall make six boards.

23Make two boards for the corners of the tabernacle at the rear [on both sides].

24They shall be joined together underneath, and joined together on top with one ring. So shall it be for both of them; they shall form the two [rear] corners.

25There shall be eight boards and sixteen silver sockets; two sockets under each board.

26“Then you shall make [fifteen] bars of acacia wood: five for the boards of one side of the tabernacle,

27and five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the rear end of the tabernacle, for the back wall toward the west.

28And the middle bar in the center of the boards shall pass through [horizontally] from end to end.

29You shall overlay the boards with gold and make their rings of gold to hold the bars. You shall overlay the bars with gold.

30You shall erect the tabernacle according to its plan [the direction corresponding to its meaning and purpose] which has been shown to you on the mountain.
