Making the Altar and Courtyard

1 And he made the Altar of Burnt Offering of acacia wood, five cubits long and five cubits wide, square, and three cubits high. 2 And he made its horns on its four corners; its horns were of one piece with it, and he overlaid it with bronze. 3 And he made all the vessels of the altar: the pots, and the shovels, and the basins, and the forks, and the fire pans; he made all its vessels of bronze. 4 And he made for the altar a grating of bronze network, under its ledge below, reaching halfway up. 5 And he cast four rings for the four corners of the bronze grating, as holders for the poles. 6 And he made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze. 7 And he put the poles into the rings on the sides of the altar, to carry it by them; he made it hollow, with boards. 8 And he made the Basin of bronze and its stand of bronze, from the mirrors of the women who come to pray at the entrance⁠a of the Tent of Meeting. 9 And he made the court: for the south side the curtains of the court were of fine twisted linen, a hundred cubits, 10 with their pillars twenty and their bases twenty, of bronze; the hooks of the pillars and their bands were of silver. 11 And for the north side, curtains of a hundred cubits, with their pillars twenty and their bases twenty, of bronze; the hooks of the pillars and their bands were of silver. 12 And for the west side, curtains of fifty cubits, with their pillars ten and their bases ten; the hooks of the pillars and their bands were of silver. 13 And for the east side, toward the sunrise, fifty cubits. 14 The curtains on one side of the gate were fifteen cubits, with their pillars three and their bases three. 15 And on the other side of the gate of the court, on both sides, curtains of fifteen cubits, with their pillars three and their bases three. 16 All the curtains around the court were of fine twisted linen. 17 And the bases for the pillars were of bronze, the hooks of the pillars and their bands were of silver, and the overlay of their tops was of silver, and all the pillars of the court had bands of silver. 18 And the screen for the gate of the court was the work of an embroiderer, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen; and it was twenty cubits long, and five cubits high in its width, corresponding to the curtains of the court. 19 And their pillars were four and their bases four, of bronze; their hooks were of silver, and the overlay of their tops and their bands were of silver. 20 And all the pegs of the tabernacle and of the court all around were of bronze.

The Accounting of Materials

21 These are the accounts of the tabernacle, the tabernacle of the testimony, which were counted according to the Memra of Moses,⁠b the service of the Levites under the direction of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest. 22 And Bezalel son of Uri son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made all that the Lord commanded Moses; 23 and with him was Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, a woodworker and a designer and an embroiderer in blue, and in purple, and in scarlet, and in fine linen. 24 All the gold that was used for the work, in all the work of the sanctuary, the gold of the offering, was twenty-nine talents and seven hundred and thirty shekels, by the shekel of the sanctuary. 25 And the silver of those of the congregation who were counted was a hundred talents and one thousand seven hundred and seventy-five shekels, by the shekel of the sanctuary: 26 the weight was set per head, half a shekel by the shekel of the sanctuary, for everyone who passed over to those who were counted, from twenty years old and upward, for six hundred and three thousand five hundred and fifty men. 27 And the hundred talents of silver were for casting the bases of the sanctuary and the bases of the veil, a hundred bases for the hundred talents, a talent for each base. 28 And with the one thousand seven hundred and seventy-five shekels he made hooks for the pillars, and overlaid their tops, and made bands for them. 29 And the bronze of the offering was seventy talents and two thousand four hundred shekels. 30 And with it he made the bases for the door of the Tent of Meeting, and the bronze altar, and the bronze grating that belonged to it, and all the vessels of the altar, 31 and the bases of the court all around, and the bases of the gate of the court, and all the pegs of the tabernacle, and all the pegs of the court all around.
