Exodus 38:13-31

13For the 1east side fifty cubits. 14The hangings for the one 2side of the gate were fifteen cubits, with their three pillars and their three 3sockets, 15and so for the 4other 5side. 6On both sides of the gate of the court were hangings of fifteen cubits, with their three pillars and their three 7sockets. 16All the hangings of the court all around were of fine twisted linen. 17The 8sockets for the pillars were of 9bronze, the hooks of the pillars and their 10bands, of silver; and the overlaying of their tops, of silver, and all the pillars of the court were furnished with silver 11bands. 18The screen of the gate of the court was the work of the 12weaver, of 13blue and purple and scarlet material and fine twisted linen. And the length was twenty cubits and the 14height was five cubits, corresponding to the hangings of the court. 19Their four pillars and their four 15sockets were of bronze; their hooks were of silver, and the overlaying of their tops and their 16bands were of silver. 20All the pegs of the 17tabernacle and of the court all around were of bronze.

2118This is the number of the things for the 19tabernacle, the 20tabernacle of the testimony, as they were 21numbered according to the 22command of Moses, for the service of the Levites, by the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. 22Now 23Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made all that the Lord had commanded Moses. 23With him was 24Oholiab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, an engraver and a skillful workman and a 25weaver in 26blue and in purple and in scarlet material, and fine linen.

24All the gold that was used for the work, in all the work of the sanctuary, even the gold of the wave offering, was 29 talents and 730 shekels, according to 27the shekel of the sanctuary. 2528The silver of those of the congregation who were 29numbered was 100 talents and 1,775 shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary; 2630a beka a head (that is, half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary), for each one who passed over to those who were 31numbered, from twenty years old and upward, for 32603,550 men. 27The hundred talents of silver were for casting the 33sockets of the sanctuary and the 34sockets of the veil; one hundred 35sockets for the hundred talents, a talent for a 36socket. 28Of the 1,775 shekels, he made hooks for the pillars and overlaid their tops and made 37bands for them. 29The bronze of the wave offering was 70 talents and 2,400 shekels. 30With it he made the 38sockets to the doorway of the tent of meeting, and the bronze altar and its bronze grating, and all the utensils of the altar, 31and the 39sockets of the court all around and the 40sockets of the gate of the court, and all the pegs of the 41tabernacle and all the pegs of the court all around.
