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 bases, 15and so for the 3other 4side. 5On both sides of the gate of the courtyard were hangings of fifteen cubits, with their three pillars and their three bases. 16All the hangings of the courtyard all around were of fine twisted linen. 17And the bases for the pillars were of bronze, the hooks of the pillars and their 6bands, of silver; and the overlaying of their tops, of silver, and all the pillars of the courtyard were furnished with silver 7bands. 18Now the curtain of the gate of the courtyard was the work of the 8weaver, of 9violet, purple, and scarlet material and fine twisted linen. And the length was twenty cubits and the 10height was five cubits, corresponding to the hangings of the courtyard. 19Their four pillars and their four bases were of bronze; their hooks were of silver, and the overlaying of their tops and their 11bands were of silver. 20All the pegs of the 12tabernacle and of the courtyard all around were of bronze.
2113This is the number of the things for the 14tabernacle, the 15tabernacle of the testimony, as they were 16counted according to the 17command of Moses, for the service of the Levites, by the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. 22Now 18Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made everything that the Lord had commanded Moses. 23With him was 19Oholiab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, an engraver and a skilled embroiderer, and a 20weaver in violet, 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, 21which was the gold of the wave offering, was twenty-nine 22talents and 730 23shekels, according to 24the shekel of the sanctuary. 25And 25the silver of those of the congregation who were 26counted was a hundred talents and 1,775 shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary; 2627a beka a head (that is, half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary), assessed to each one who passed over to those who were 28counted, from twenty years old and upward, for 29603,550 men. 27The hundred talents of silver were used for casting the bases of the sanctuary and the bases of the veil; a hundred bases for the hundred talents, a talent for a base. 28And of the 1,775 shekels, he made hooks for the pillars, and overlaid their tops and made 30bands for them. 29And the bronze of the wave offering was seventy talents and 2,400 shekels. 30With it he made the bases 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 bases of the courtyard all around and the bases of the gate of the courtyard, and all the pegs of the 31tabernacle and all the pegs of the courtyard all around.
