Exodus 27:1-21 AMPC

[1] And make the altar of acacia wood, five cubits square and three cubits high [within reach of all]. [2] Make horns for it on its four corners; they shall be of one piece with it, and you shall overlay it with bronze. [3] You shall make pots to take away its ashes, and shovels, basins, forks, and firepans; make all its utensils of bronze. [4] Also make for it a grate, a network of bronze; and on the net you shall make four bronze rings at its four corners. [5] And you shall put it under the ledge of the altar, so that the net will extend halfway down the altar. [6] And make poles for the altar, poles of acacia wood overlaid with bronze. [7] The poles shall be put through the rings on the two sides of the altar, with which to carry it. [8] You shall make [the altar] hollow with slabs or planks; as shown you on the mountain, so shall it be made. [9] And you shall make the court of the tabernacle. On the south side the court shall have hangings of fine twined linen, a hundred cubits long for one side; [10] Their pillars shall be twenty and their sockets twenty, of bronze, but the hooks of the pillars and their joinings shall be of silver; [11] Likewise for the north side hangings, a hundred cubits long, and their twenty pillars and their twenty sockets of bronze, but the hooks of the pillars and their joinings shall be of silver. [12] And for the breadth of the court on the west side there shall be hangings of fifty cubits, with ten pillars and ten sockets. [13] The breadth of the court to the front, the east side, shall be fifty cubits. [14] The hangings for one side of the gate shall be fifteen cubits, with three pillars and three sockets. [15] On the other side the hangings shall be fifteen cubits, with three pillars and three sockets. [16] And for the gate of the court there shall be a hanging [for a screen] twenty cubits long, of blue, purple, and scarlet [stuff] and fine twined linen, embroidered. It shall have four pillars and four sockets for them. [17] All the pillars round about the court shall be joined together with silver rods; their hooks shall be of silver and their sockets of bronze. [18] The length of the court shall be a hundred cubits and the breadth fifty and the height five cubits, [with hangings of] fine twined linen and sockets of bronze. [19] All the tabernacle's utensils and instruments used in all its service, and all its pegs and all the pegs for the court, shall be of bronze. [20] You shall command the Israelites to provide you with pure oil of crushed olives for the light, to cause it to burn continually [every night]. [21] In the Tent of Meeting [of God with His people], outside the veil which sets apart the Testimony, Aaron and his sons shall keep it burning from evening to morning before the Lord. It shall be a statute to be observed on behalf of the Israelites throughout their generations.
