Exodus 36:20-38
20Bezalel made boards of acacia wood for the upright framework of the tabernacle.
21Each board was ten cubits long and one and a half cubits wide.
22Each board had two tenons (dovetails), fitted to one another; he did this for all the boards of the tabernacle.
23And [this is how] he made the boards [for frames] for the tabernacle: twenty boards for the south side;
24and he made under the twenty boards forty silver sockets; two sockets under one board for its two tenons (dovetails), and two sockets under another board for its two tenons.
25For the other side of the tabernacle, the north side, he made twenty boards,
26and their forty silver sockets; two sockets under [the end of] each board.
27And for the rear of the tabernacle, to the west, he made six [frame] boards.
28And he made two boards for each corner of the tabernacle in the rear.
29They were separate below, but linked together at the top with one ring; thus he made both of them in both corners.
30There were eight boards with sixteen silver sockets, and under [the end of] each board two sockets.
31Bezalel made bars of acacia wood, five for the [frame] boards of the one side of the tabernacle,
32and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle’s other side, and five bars for the boards at the rear side to the west.
33And he made the middle bar pass through [horizontally] halfway up the boards from one end to the other.
34He overlaid the boards and the bars with gold and made their rings of gold as holders for the bars.
35Further, Bezalel made the veil of blue and purple and scarlet fabric, and fine twisted linen; he made it with cherubim, the work of an embroiderer.
36For the veil (partition curtain) he made four support poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold; their hooks were gold, and he cast for them four silver sockets.
37He made a screen (curtain) for the doorway of the tent, of blue, purple, and scarlet fabric, and fine twisted linen, the work of an embroiderer;
38and [he made] the five support poles with their hooks, and overlaid their [ornamental] tops and connecting rings with gold; but their five sockets were bronze.
