Exodus 27:9-17

9“Now you shall make 1the courtyard of the 2tabernacle. 3On the south side there shall be hangings for the courtyard of fine twisted linen, a 4hundred cubits long for one side;

10and its pillars shall be twenty, with their twenty bases of bronze; the hooks of the pillars and their 5bands shall be of silver.

11Likewise for the north side in length there shall be hangings a 6hundred cubits long, and its twenty pillars with their twenty bases of bronze; the hooks of the pillars and their bands shall be of silver.

12For the width of the courtyard on the west side shall be hangings of 7fifty cubits, with their ten pillars and their ten bases.

13The width of the courtyard on the 8east side shall be fifty cubits.

14The hangings for the one 9side of the gate shall be 10fifteen cubits, with their three pillars and their three bases.

15And for the 11other 12side there shall be hangings of fifteen cubits, with their three pillars and their three bases.

16And for the gate of the courtyard there shall be a curtain of 13twenty cubits, of 14violet, purple, and scarlet material and fine twisted linen, the work of a 15weaver, with their four pillars and their four bases.

17All the pillars around the courtyard shall be joined together with silver, with their hooks of silver and their bases of bronze.
