1And you shall make an altar of acacia wood, five cubits long, and five cubits broad; the altar shall be foursquare: and the height of it shall be three cubits.
2And you shall make the horns of it upon its four corners: its horns shall be of one piece with it: and you shall overlay it with bronze.
3And you shall make its pans to receive its ashes, and its shovels, and its basins, and its flesh hooks, and its fire pans: all the utensils of it you shall make of bronze.
4And you shall make for it a grate of network of bronze; and upon the net shall you make four bronze rings in the four corners.
5And you shall put it under the rim of the altar beneath, that the net may extend halfway down the altar.
6And you shall make poles for the altar, poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with bronze.
7And the poles shall be put into the rings, and the poles shall be upon the two sides of the altar, to bear it.
8Hollow with boards shall you make it: as it was shown you on the mount, so shall they make it.
9And you shall make the court of the tabernacle: for the south side there shall be hangings for the court of fine twined linen of a hundred cubits long for one side:
10And the twenty pillars of it and their twenty sockets shall be of bronze; the hooks of the pillars and their bands shall be of silver.
11And likewise for the north side in length there shall be hangings of a hundred cubits long, and its twenty pillars and their twenty sockets of bronze; the hooks of the pillars and their bands of silver.

16And for the gate of the court shall be a hanging of twenty cubits, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, embroidered with needlework: and its pillars shall be four, and their sockets four.
17All the pillars round about the court shall have bands of silver; their hooks shall be of silver, and their sockets of bronze.
18The length of the court shall be a hundred cubits, and the breadth fifty throughout, and the height five cubits of fine twined linen, and its sockets of bronze.
19All the utensils of the tabernacle for all its service, and all its pins, and all the pins of the court, shall be of bronze.
20And you shall command the children of Israel, that they bring you pure beaten olive oil for the light, to cause the lamp to burn continually.
21In the tabernacle of meeting outside the veil, which is before the testimony, Aaron and his sons shall tend it from evening to morning before the LORD: it shall be a statute forever unto their generations on the behalf of the children of Israel.
