Exodus 36:8-19

8All the workers who had special skills made the tabernacle with ten curtains. They used very good linen, as well as blue, purple and red material. They made beautiful pictures of cherubs on the curtains.

9All the curtains were the same size: 12 metres long and 2 metres wide.

10The workers joined five of the curtains together. They did the same thing with the other five curtains.

11They made rings of blue material along the edge of the last curtain in each set of five curtains.

12They put 50 rings along the edge of the first set. They put another 50 rings along the edge of the second set. The rings on one curtain were opposite to the rings on the other curtain.

13They made 50 small gold hooks to join the curtains together. So a single piece of curtain made the whole tabernacle.

14The workers used goats' hair to make 11 more curtains to cover the tabernacle, like a tent.

15The curtains were all the same size: 13.5 metres long and 2 metres wide.

16They joined five of the curtains together to make one set. They joined the other six curtains to make another set.

17They used material to make 50 rings along the edge of the end curtain in each set.

18They made 50 bronze hooks to join the two sets of curtains together. It made a single tent.

19They used red leather from sheep's skins to cover the tent. They used another kind of good leather to cover the red leather.
