Exodus 26:1-6

1“1Moreover you shall make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twisted linen and 2blue and purple and scarlet material; you shall make them with cherubim, the work of a skillful workman. 2The length of each curtain shall be twenty-eight 3cubits, and the width of each curtain four 4cubits; all the curtains shall have 5the same measurements. 3Five curtains shall be 6joined to one another, and the other five curtains shall be 7joined to one another. 4You shall make loops of 8blue on the edge of the 9outermost curtain in the first set, and likewise you shall make them on the edge of the curtain that is outermost in the second 10set. 5You shall make fifty loops in the one curtain, and you shall make fifty loops on the 11edge of the curtain that is in the second 12set; the loops shall be opposite each other. 6You shall make fifty clasps of gold, and 13join the curtains to one another with the clasps so that the 14tabernacle will be a unit.
