1 He made the altar of burnt offering of acacia wood. It was square. Its length was five cubits, its breadth was five cubits, and its height was three cubits.

2 He made its horns on its four corners. Its horns were of one piece with it, and he overlaid it with brass.

3 He made all the vessels of the altar, the pots, the shovels, the basins, the forks, and the fire pans. He made all its vessels of brass.

4 He made for the altar a grating of a network of brass, under the ledge around it beneath, reaching halfway up.

5 He cast four rings for the four ends of brass grating, to be places for the poles.

6 He made the poles of acacia wood, and overlaid them with brass.

7 He put the poles into the rings on the sides of the altar, with which to carry it. He made it hollow with planks.

8 He made the basin of brass, and its base of brass, out of the mirrors of the ministering women who ministered at the door of the Tent of Meeting.

9 He made the court: for the south side southward the hangings of the court were of fine twined linen, one hundred cubits;

10 their pillars were twenty, and their sockets twenty, of brass; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets were of silver.

11 For the north side one hundred cubits, their pillars twenty, and their sockets twenty, of brass; the hooks of the pillars, and their fillets, of silver.

12 For the west side were hangings of fifty cubits, their pillars ten, and their sockets ten; the hooks of the pillars, and their fillets, of silver.

13 For the east side eastward fifty cubits.

14 The hangings for the one side were fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three;

15 and so for the other side: on this hand and that hand by the gate of the court were hangings of fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three.

16 All the hangings around the court were of fine twined linen.

17 The sockets for the pillars were of brass. The hooks of the pillars and their fillets were of silver; and the overlaying of their capitals, of silver; and all the pillars of the court were filleted with silver.

18 The screen for the gate of the court was the work of the embroiderer, of blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen. Twenty cubits was the length, and the height in the breadth was five cubits, like to the hangings of the court.

19 Their pillars were four, and their sockets four, of brass; their hooks of silver, and the overlaying of their capitals, and their fillets, of silver.

20 All the pins of the tabernacle, and around the court, were of brass.

21 This is the amount of material used for the tabernacle, even the Tabernacle of the Testimony, as they were counted, according to the commandment of Moses, for the service of the Levites, by the hand of Ithamar, the son of Aaron the priest.

22 Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made all that Yahweh commanded Moses.

23 With him was Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, an engraver, and a skillful workman, and an embroiderer in blue, in purple, in scarlet, and in fine linen.

24 All the gold that was used for the work in all the work of the sanctuary, even the gold of the offering, was twenty-nine talents, and seven hundred thirty shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary.

25 The silver of those who were numbered of the congregation was one hundred talents, and one thousand seven hundred seventy-five shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary:

26 a beka a head, that is, half a shekel, after the shekel of the sanctuary, for everyone who passed over to those who were numbered, from twenty years old and upward, for six hundred three thousand five hundred fifty men.

27 The one hundred talents of silver were for casting the sockets of the sanctuary, and the sockets of the veil; one hundred sockets for the one hundred talents, a talent for a socket.

28 Of the one thousand seven hundred seventy-five shekels he made hooks for the pillars, overlaid their capitals, and made fillets for them.

29 The brass of the offering was seventy talents, and two thousand four hundred shekels.

30 With this he made the sockets to the door of the Tent of Meeting, the bronze altar, the bronze grating for it, all the vessels of the altar,

31 the sockets around the court, the sockets of the gate of the court, all the pins of the tabernacle, and all the pins around the court.

10782. Exodus 38

1. And he made the altar of burnt offering from shittim wood, five cubits its length and five cubits its breadth; it was square, and three cubits was its height.

2. And he made its horns on its four corners; its horns were of one piece with it 1 , and he overlaid it with bronze.

3. And he made all the vessels of the altar, the pans and the shovels and the basins and the forks and the tongs; all its vessels he made from bronze.

4. And he made for the altar a grating, a network, from bronze, under the rim of it beneath, reaching halfway down 2 .

5. And he cast four rings on the four ends of the grating 3 of bronze, receptacles for the poles.

6. And he made the poles from shittim wood, and overlaid them with bronze.

7. And he inserted the poles into the rings on the ribs 4 of the altar, to carry it on them. A boarded hollow he made it.

8. And he made the laver of bronze, and its pedestal from bronze in the sight of the serving women who served at the door of the tent of meeting.

9. And he made the court on the south side 5 , southwards; the hangings of the court from fine twined linen, [extending for] a hundred cubits;

10. Their twenty pillars, and the twenty bases of these, from bronze; the hooks of the pillars and their bands from silver;

11. And on the north side 5 [the hangings extending for] a hundred cubits, their twenty pillars, and the twenty bases of these, from bronze; the hooks of the pillars and their bands from silver;

12. And on the side of the sea 6 the hangings [extending for] fifty cubits, and their ten pillars, and the ten bases of these; the hooks of the pillars and their bands from silver;

13. And on the east side 5 , towards the sunrise, [the hangings extending for] fifty cubits;

14. The hangings [extending for] fifteen cubits on [one] shoulder 7 , their three pillars, and the three bases of these;

15. And on the other shoulder 7 - [thus] to one side and to the other at the gate of the court - the hangings [extending for] fifteen cubits, their three pillars, and the three bases of these.

16. All the hangings of the court round about [were made] from fine twined linen.

17. And the bases for their pillars [were made] from bronze, the hooks of the pillars and their bands from silver, and the overlay [around] their heads from silver; and these - all the pillars of the court - were furnished with bands [made] from silver.

18. And the screen for the gate of the court [was made] from the work of an embroiderer, from violet, and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine twined linen; and twenty cubits was the length, and the height all along the width was five cubits, corresponding to the hangings of the court 8 .

19. And their pillars were four, and the bases of these were four, [made] from bronze; their hooks [were made] from silver, and the overlay [around] their heads, and their bands, from silver.

20. And all the pegs for the dwelling-place and the court round about [were made] from bronze.

21. This is the inventory 9 of the dwelling-place, the dwelling-place of the Testimony, which was made at the command 10 of Moses, for the service of the Levites, by the hand of Ithamar, son of Aaron the priest.

22. And Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, belonging to the tribe of Judah, made all the things which Jehovah had commanded Moses.

23. And with him was Aholiab the son of Ahisamach, belonging to the tribe of Dan, a craftsman and designer, and an embroiderer in violet, and in purple, and in twice-dyed scarlet, and in fine linen.

24. All the gold [that was] used 11 for the work in all the work of the holy place and was the gold of the wave offering, was twenty-nine talents and seven hundred and thirty shekels, according to the shekel of holiness.

25. And the silver of those who were numbered of the assembly was a hundred talents and one thousand seven hundred and seventy-five shekels, according to the shekel of holiness;

26. A didrachm 12 a head, half a shekel, according to the shekel of holiness, for everyone passing over to those who were numbered, from a son of twenty years 13 and over, for six hundred and three thousand five hundred and fifty [men].

27. And so it was, the hundred talents of silver were for casting the bases of the holy place and the bases of the veil - a hundred bases from the hundred talents, a talent for a base.

28. And from the one thousand seven hundred and seventy-five [shekels] he made hooks for the pillars, and overlaid their heads, and decorated them with bands.

29. And the bronze of the wave offering was seventy talents and two thousand four hundred shekels.

30. And he made with it the bases of the door of the tent of meeting, and the altar of bronze, and the grating of bronze for it, and all the vessels of the altar,

31. And the bases of the court round about, and the bases of the gate of the court, and all the pegs of the dwelling-place, and all the pegs of the court round about.
