New English Translation
Exodus 36:8-19
8All the skilled among those who were doing the work made the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twisted linen and blue and purple and scarlet; they were made with cherubim that were the work of an artistic designer.
9The length of one curtain was forty-two feet, and the width of one curtain was six feet – the same size for each of the curtains.
10He joined five of the curtains to one another, and the other five curtains he joined to one another.
11He made loops of blue material along the edge of the end curtain in the first set; he did the same along the edge of the end curtain in the second set.
12He made fifty loops on the first curtain, and he made fifty loops on the end curtain that was in the second set, with the loops opposite one another.
13He made fifty gold clasps and joined the curtains together to one another with the clasps, so that the tabernacle was a unit.
14He made curtains of goats’ hair for a tent over the tabernacle; he made eleven curtains.
15The length of one curtain was forty-five feet, and the width of one curtain was six feet – one size for all eleven curtains.
16He joined five curtains by themselves and six curtains by themselves.
17He made fifty loops along the edge of the end curtain in the first set and fifty loops along the edge of the curtain that joined the second set.
18He made fifty bronze clasps to join the tent together so that it might be a unit.
19He made a covering for the tent out of ram skins dyed red and over that a covering of fine leather.
