[1]And they made ten curtains for the tabernacle; [2]of eight and twenty cubits the length of one curtain: the same measure was to all, and the breadth of one curtain was of four cubits. [3]And they made the veil of blue, and purple, and spun scarlet, and fine linen twined, the woven work with cherubs. [4]And they put it on four posts of incorruptible wood overlaid with gold; and their chapiters were gold, and their four sockets were silver. [5]And they made the veil of the door of the tabernacle of witness of blue, and purple, and spun scarlet, and fine linen twined, woven work with cherubs, [6]and their posts five, and the rings; and they gilded their chapiters and their clasps with gold, and they had five sockets of brass. [7]And they made the court toward the south; the curtains of the court of fine linen twined, a hundred cubits every way, [8]and their posts twenty, and their sockets twenty; [9]and on the north side a hundred every way, and on the south side a hundred every way, and their posts twenty and their sockets twenty. [10]And on the west side curtains of fifty cubits, their posts ten and their sockets ten. [11]And on the east side curtains of fifty cubits of fifteen cubits behind, [12]and their pillars three, and their sockets three. [13]And at the second back on this side and on that by the gate of the court, curtains of fifteen cubits, their pillars three and their sockets three; [14]all the curtains of the tabernacle of fine linen twined. [15]And the sockets of their pillars of brass, and their hooks of silver, and their chapiters overlaid with silver, and all the posts of the court overlaid with silver: [16]and the veil of the gate of the court, the work of an embroiderer of blue, and purple, and spun scarlet, and fine linen twined; the length of twenty cubits, and the height and the breadth of five cubits, made equal to the curtains of the court; [17]and their pillars four, and their sockets four of brass, and their hooks of silver, and their chapiters overlaid with silver. [18]And all the pins of the court round about of brass, and they were overlaid with silver. [19]And this was the construction of the tabernacle of witness, accordingly as it was appointed to Moses; so that the public service should belong to the Levites, through Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. [20]And Beseleel the son of Urias of the tribe of Juda, did as the Lord commanded Moses. [21]And Eliab the son of Achisamach of the tribe of Dan was there, who was chief artificer in the woven works and needle-works and embroideries, in weaving with the scarlet and fine linen.
