Exodus 36

And Bezalel and Oholiab and every man skilled of heart to whom God has given skill and understanding to know {how} to do all of the work of the service of the Holy Place shall do according to all that God has commanded.” \*

And Moses called to Bezalel and to Oholiab and to every man skilled of heart in whose heart God had put skill, all whose heart lifted him to come near to the work to do it,

and they took from before the face of Moses all of the contributions that the sons of Israel had brought for doing the work of the service of the Holy Place. And they continually brought a freewill offering to him in the morning in the morning.

So all the skilled doing all the work of the Holy Place came, every single man from the work that they were doing,

and they said to Moses, saying, “The people {are} bringing much more than enough for the service of the work that God has commanded {us} to do.” \*

And Moses commanded, and they caused a sound to pass through in the camp, saying, “A man and a woman shall not make any more work for the contribution of the Holy Place.” And the people were restrained from bringing.

And the work was sufficient for doing all their work, and there was excess. \*

And every skilled of heart among the doers of the work made the Dwelling with ten curtains: twisted fine linen and blue and purple and worm of scarlet; cherubim—the work of a skilled craftsman he made them.

The length of each curtain {was} 28 cubits and the width of each curtain {was} four cubits. All of the curtains {were} one size.

And five of the curtains were joined each to another, and five of the curtains were joined each to another. \*

And he made loops of blue on the edge of the first curtain from the edge in the set. And he did thus along the edge of the end curtain in the second set.

He made 50 loops on the first curtain, and he made 50 loops on the end of the curtain which is in the second set. The loops were opposite one to one.

And he made 50 clasps of gold and joined the curtains one to one with the clasps, and the Dwelling was one. \*

And he made curtains of goats’ hair for a tent over the Dwelling. He made 11 of these curtains.

The length of each curtain {was} 30 cubits, and the width of each curtain {was} four cubits. The 11 curtains {were} the same size.

And he joined five curtains to each other and six curtains to each other.

And he made 50 loops on the edge of the end curtain in the joined set, and he made 50 loops on the edge of the curtain in the second joined set. \*

And he made 50 clasps of bronze to join the tent to be one.

And he made a covering for the tent of reddened hides of rams and a covering of hides of sea-cows above that. \*

And he made upright frames for the Dwelling from wood of acacias.

The length of a frame {was} ten cubits, and the width of one frame {was} a cubit and a half of a cubit.

{There were} two tenons in each frame for joining one to one. Thus he made all of the frames of the Dwelling. \*

And he made the frames for the Dwelling: 20 frames for the south side.

And he made 40 bases of silver under the 20 frames: two bases under one frame for its two tenons, and two bases under one frame for its two tenons.

And for the second side of the Dwelling, on the north side, he made 20 frames

and their 40 silver bases: two bases under one frame, and two bases under one frame. \*

And he made six frames for the back side of the Dwelling, toward the west.

And he made two frames for the back corners of the Dwelling. \*

And they were a pair at the bottom, and they were completely together at the top to one ring. Thus he did for both as the two corners.

And there were eight frames and their silver bases, sixteen bases: two bases, two bases under one frame. \*

And he made crossbars of wood of acacias—five for the frames of the one side of the Dwelling,

and five crossbars for the frames of the second side of the Dwelling, and five crossbars for the frames for the back of the Dwelling to the west.

And he made the middle crossbar in the center of the frames to pass through from end to end.

And he covered the frames with gold. And he made their rings of gold, the holders for the crossbars. And he covered the bars with gold. \*

And he made a curtain of blue and purple and worm of scarlet and of twisted fine linen. He made cherubim, the work of a skillful workman.

And he made for it four pillars of acacia wood, and he covered them {with} gold and their hooks with gold. And he cast for them four bases of silver. \*

And he made a curtain for the entrance of the tent: of blue and purple and worm of scarlet and of twisted fine linen, the work of an embroiderer,

and its five pillars and their hooks. And he covered their tops and their rings {with} gold. And their five bases {were} bronze. \*
