Exodus 38:1-8

1He made the altar of burnt offering of acacia wood. Five cubits was its length, and five cubits its breadth. It was square, and three cubits was its height.

2He made horns for it on its four corners. Its horns were of one piece with it, and he overlaid it with bronze.

3And he made all the utensils of the altar, the pots, the shovels, the basins, the forks, and the fire pans. He made all its utensils of bronze.

4And he made for the altar a grating, a network of bronze, under its ledge, extending halfway down.

5He cast four rings on the four corners of the bronze grating as holders for the poles.

6He made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze.

7And he put the poles through the rings on the sides of the altar to carry it with them. He made it hollow, with boards.

8He made the basin of bronze and its stand of bronze, from the mirrors of the ministering women who ministered in the entrance of the tent of meeting.
