Exodus 26:15-37
15“You are to make upright supports of acacia wood for the tabernacle.
16Each support is to be fifteen feet long and twenty-seven inches wide.
17Each support will have two tenons for joining. Do the same for all the supports of the tabernacle.
18Make the supports for the tabernacle as follows: twenty supports for the south side,
19and make forty silver bases under the twenty supports, two bases under the first support for its two tenons, and two bases under the next support for its two tenons;
20twenty supports for the second side of the tabernacle, the north side,
21along with their forty silver bases, two bases under the first support and two bases under each support;
22and make six supports for the west side of the tabernacle.
23Make two additional supports for the two back corners of the tabernacle.
24They are to be paired at the bottom, and joined together at the top in a single ring. So it should be for both of them; they will serve as the two corners.
25There are to be eight supports with their silver bases: sixteen bases; two bases under the first support and two bases under each support.
26“You are to make five crossbars of acacia wood for the supports on one side of the tabernacle,
27five crossbars for the supports on the other side of the tabernacle, and five crossbars for the supports on the back side of the tabernacle on the west.
28The central crossbar is to run through the middle of the supports from one end to the other.
29Then overlay the supports with gold, and make their rings of gold as the holders for the crossbars. Also overlay the crossbars with gold.
30You are to set up the tabernacle according to the plan for it that you have been shown on the mountain.
31“You are to make a curtain of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and finely spun linen with a design of cherubim worked into it.
32Hang it on four gold-plated pillars of acacia wood that have gold hooks and that stand on four silver bases.
33Hang the curtain under the clasps and bring the ark of the testimony there behind the curtain, so the curtain will make a separation for you between the holy place and the most holy place.
34Put the mercy seat on the ark of the testimony in the most holy place.
35Place the table outside the curtain and the lampstand on the south side of the tabernacle, opposite the table; put the table on the north side.
36“For the entrance to the tent you are to make a screen embroidered with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and finely spun linen.
37Make five pillars of acacia wood for the screen and overlay them with gold; their hooks are to be gold, and you are to cast five bronze bases for them.
