Exodus 36:20-30

20They used acacia wood to make the boards that would hold up the tabernacle.

21Each board was 4 metres high and 65 centimetres wide.

22Each board had two wooden pegs, beside each other. They made all the boards for the tabernacle like this.

23They made 20 boards for the south side of the tabernacle.

24They used silver to make 40 heavy bases to hold up the boards. Two bases would hold up each board. The pegs on the boards fitted into holes in the bases.

25They made 20 boards for the north side of the tabernacle.

26They made 40 silver bases, two bases under each board.

27They made six boards for the west side, at the back of the tabernacle.

28They made two boards for the corners at the back of the tabernacle.

29They fixed the two boards together, from the bottom to the top. They used a ring to fix them together at the top. They made both corners in the same way.

30So there were eight boards at the back of the tabernacle and 16 silver bases, two bases under each board.
