Exodus 26:15-30

15“Make upright frames of acacia wood for the tabernacle.

16Each frame is to be ten cubits long and a cubit and a half wide,

17with two projections set parallel to each other. Make all the frames of the tabernacle in this way.

18Make twenty frames for the south side of the tabernacle

19and make forty silver bases to go under them—two bases for each frame, one under each projection.

20For the other side, the north side of the tabernacle, make twenty frames

21and forty silver bases—two under each frame.

22Make six frames for the far end, that is, the west end of the tabernacle,

23and make two frames for the corners at the far end.

24At these two corners they must be double from the bottom all the way to the top and fitted into a single ring; both shall be like that.

25So there will be eight frames and sixteen silver bases—two under each frame.

26“Also make crossbars of acacia wood: five for the frames on one side of the tabernacle,

27five for those on the other side, and five for the frames on the west, at the far end of the tabernacle.

28The center crossbar is to extend from end to end at the middle of the frames.

29Overlay the frames with gold and make gold rings to hold the crossbars. Also overlay the crossbars with gold.

30“Set up the tabernacle according to the plan shown you on the mountain.
