1Beseleel therefore, and Ooliab, and every wise man, to whom the Lord gave wisdom and understanding, to know how to work artificially, made the things that are necessary for the uses of the sanctuary, and which the Lord commanded.Select Exodus 36:1
2And when Moses had called them, and every skilful man, to whom the Lord had given wisdom, and such as of their own accord had offered themselves to the making of the work,Select Exodus 36:2
3He delivered all the offerings of the children of Israel unto them. And while they were earnest about the work, the people daily in the morning offered their vows.Select Exodus 36:3
4Whereupon the workmen being constrained to come,Select Exodus 36:4
5Said to Moses: The people offereth more than is necessary.Select Exodus 36:5
6Moses therefore commanded proclamation to be made by the crier's voice: Let neither man nor woman offer any more for the work of the sanctuary. And so they ceased from offering gifts,Select Exodus 36:6
7Because the things that were offered did suffice, and were too much.Select Exodus 36:7
8And all the men that were wise of heart, to accomplish the work of the tabernacle, made ten curtains of twisted fine linen, and violet, and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, with varied work, and the art of embroidering:Select Exodus 36:8
9The length of one curtain was twenty-eight cubits, and the breadth four: all the curtains were of the same size.Select Exodus 36:9
10And he joined five curtains, one to another, and the other five he coupled one to another.Select Exodus 36:10
11He made also loops of violet in the edge of one curtain on both sides, and in the edge of the other curtain in like manner,Select Exodus 36:11
12That the loops might meet one against another, and might be joined each with the other.Select Exodus 36:12
13Whereupon also he cast fifty rings of gold, that might catch the loops of the curtains, and they might be made one tabernacle.Select Exodus 36:13
14He made also eleven curtains of goats' hair, to cover the roof of the tabernacle:Select Exodus 36:14
15One curtain was thirty cubits long, and four cubits broad: all the curtains were of one measure.Select Exodus 36:15
16Five of which he joined apart, and the other six apart.Select Exodus 36:16
17And he made fifty loops in the edge of one curtain, and fifty in the edge of another curtain, that they might be joined one to another.Select Exodus 36:17
18And fifty buckles of brass wherewith the roof might be knit together, that of all the curtains there might be made one covering.Select Exodus 36:18
19He made also a cover for the tabernacle of rams' skins dyed red; and another cover over that of violet skins.Select Exodus 36:19
20He made also the boards of the tabernacle of setim wood standing.Select Exodus 36:20
21The length of one board was ten cubits; and the breadth was one cubit and a half.Select Exodus 36:21
22There were two mortises throughout every board, that one might be joined to the other. And in this manner he made for all the boards of the tabernacle.Select Exodus 36:22
23Of which twenty were at the south side southward,Select Exodus 36:23
24With forty sockets of silver, two sockets were put under one board on the two sides of the corners, where the mortises of the sides end in the corners.Select Exodus 36:24
25At that side also of the tabernacle, that looketh towards the north, he made twenty boards,Select Exodus 36:25
26With forty sockets of silver, two sockets for every board.Select Exodus 36:26
27But against the west, to wit, at that side of the tabernacle, which looketh to the sea, he made six boards,Select Exodus 36:27
28And two others at each corner of the tabernacle behind:Select Exodus 36:28
29Which were also joined from beneath unto the top, and went together into one joint. Thus he did on both sides at the corners:Select Exodus 36:29
30So there were in all eight boards, and they had sixteen sockets of silver, to wit, two sockets under every board.Select Exodus 36:30
31He made also bars of setim wood, five to hold together the boards of one side of the tabernacle,Select Exodus 36:31
32And five others to join together the boards of the other side; and besides these, five other bars at the west side of the tabernacle towards the sea.Select Exodus 36:32
33He made also another bar, that might come by the midst of the boards from corner to corner.Select Exodus 36:33
34And the boards themselves he overlaid with gold casting for them sockets of silver. And their rings he made of gold, through which the bars might be drawn: and he covered the bars themselves with plates of gold.Select Exodus 36:34
35He made also a veil of violet, and purple, scarlet and fine twisted linen, varied and distinguished with embroidery:Select Exodus 36:35
36And four pillars of setim wood, which with their heads he overlaid with gold, casting for them sockets of silver.Select Exodus 36:36
37He made also a hanging in the entry of the tabernacle of violet, purple, scarlet, and fine twisted linen, with the work of an embroiderer.Select Exodus 36:37
38And five pillars with their heads, which he covered with gold, and their sockets he cast of brass.Select Exodus 36:38
