|
1 |
And thou shalt make an altar of shittim wood, five cubits long,
and five cubits broad; the altar shall be foursquare: and the height
thereof shall be three cubits.
|
2 |
And thou shalt make the horns of it upon the four corners
thereof: his horns shall be of the same: and thou shalt overlay it
with brass.
|
3 |
And thou shalt make his pans to receive his ashes, and his
shovels, and his basons, and his fleshhooks, and his firepans: all the
vessels thereof thou shalt make of brass.
|
4 |
And thou shalt make for it a grate of network of brass; and upon
the net shalt thou make four brasen rings in the four corners thereof.
|
5 |
And thou shalt put it under the compass of the altar beneath,
that the net may be even to the midst of the altar.
|
6 |
And thou shalt make staves for the altar, staves of shittim wood,
and overlay them with brass.
|
7 |
And the staves shall be put into the rings, and the staves shall
be upon the two sides of the altar, to bear it.
|
8 |
Hollow with boards shalt thou make it: as it was shewed thee in
the mount, so shall they make it.
|
9 |
And thou shalt make the court of the tabernacle: for the south
side southward there shall be hangings for the court of fine twined
linen of an hundred cubits long for one side:
|
10 |
And the twenty
pillars thereof and their twenty sockets shall be of brass; the hooks
of the pillars and their fillets shall be of silver.
|
11 |
And likewise for the north side in length there shall be
hangings of an hundred cubits long, and his twenty pillars and their
twenty sockets of brass; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets of
silver.
|
12 |
And for the breadth of the court on the west side shall be
hangings of fifty cubits: their pillars ten, and their sockets ten.
|
13 |
And the breadth of the court on the east side eastward shall be
fifty cubits.
|
14 |
The hangings of one side of the gate shall be fifteen cubits:
their pillars three, and their sockets three.
|
15 |
And on the other side shall be hangings fifteen cubits: their
pillars three, and their sockets three.
|
16 |
And for the gate of the court shall be an hanging of twenty
cubits, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen,
wrought with needlework: and their pillars shall be four, and their
sockets four.
|
17 |
All the pillars round about the court shall be filleted with
silver; their hooks shall be of silver, and their sockets of brass.
|
18 |
The length of the court shall be an hundred cubits, and the
breadth fifty every where, and the height five cubits of fine twined
linen, and their sockets of brass.
|
19 |
All the vessels of the tabernacle in all the service thereof,
and all the pins thereof, and all the pins of the court, shall be of
brass.
|
20 |
And thou shalt command the children of Israel, that they bring
thee pure oil olive beaten for the light, to cause the lamp to burn
always.
|
21 |
In the tabernacle of the congregation without the vail, which is
before the testimony, Aaron and his sons shall order it from evening
to morning before the LORD: it shall be a statute for ever unto their
generations on the behalf of the children of Israel.
