Then
wrought Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wise
hearted man, in whom the Lord put wisdom and
understanding to know how to work all manner of
work for the service of the sanctuary, according
to all that the Lord had commanded.
02 And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab,
and every wise hearted man, in whose heart the
Lord had put wisdom, even every one whose heart
stirred him up to come unto the work to do it:
03 And they received of Moses all the
offering, which the children of Israel had
brought for the work of the service of the
sanctuary, to make it withal. And they brought
yet unto him free offerings every morning.
04 And all the wise men, that wrought all
the work of the sanctuary, came every man from
his work which they made;
05 And they spake unto Moses, saying, The
people bring much more than enough for the
service of the work, which the Lord commanded to
make.
06 And Moses gave commandment, and they
caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp,
saying, Let neither man nor woman make any more
work for the offering of the sanctuary. So the
people were restrained from bringing.
07 For the stuff they had was sufficient
for all the work to make it, and too much.
08 And every wise hearted man among them
that wrought the work of the tabernacle made ten
curtains of fine twined linen, and blue, and
purple, and scarlet: with cherubims of cunning
work made he them.
09 The length of one curtain was twenty and
eight cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four
cubits: the curtains were all of one size.
10 And he coupled the five curtains one
unto another: and the other five curtains he
coupled one unto another.
11 And he made loops of blue on the edge of
one curtain from the selvedge in the coupling:
likewise he made in the uttermost side of another
curtain, in the coupling of the second.
12 Fifty loops made he in one curtain, and
fifty loops made he in the edge of the curtain
which was in the coupling of the second: the
loops held one curtain to another.
13 And he made fifty taches of gold, and
coupled the curtains one unto another with the
taches: so it became one tabernacle.
14 And he made curtains of goats' hair for
the tent over the tabernacle: eleven curtains he
made them.
15 The length of one curtain was thirty
cubits, and four cubits was the breadth of one
curtain: the eleven curtains were of one size.
16 And he coupled five curtains by
themselves, and six curtains by themselves.
17 And he made fifty loops upon the
uttermost edge of the curtain in the coupling,
and fifty loops made he upon the edge of the
curtain which coupleth the second.

18 And he made fifty taches of brass to
couple the tent together, that it might be one.
19 And he made a covering for the tent of
rams' skins dyed red, and a covering of badgers'
skins above that.
20 And he made boards for the tabernacle of
shittim wood, standing up.
21 The length of a board was ten cubits,
and the breadth of a board one cubit and a half.
22 One board had two tenons, equally
distant one from another: thus did he make for
all the boards of the tabernacle.
23 And he made boards for the tabernacle;
twenty boards for the south side southward:
24 And forty sockets of silver he made
under the twenty boards; two sockets under one
board for his two tenons, and two sockets under
another board for his two tenons.
25 And for the other side of the
tabernacle, which is toward the north corner, he
made twenty boards,
26 And their forty sockets of silver; two
sockets under one board, and two sockets under
another board.
27 And for the sides of the tabernacle
westward he made six boards.
28 And two boards made he for the corners
of the tabernacle in the two sides.
29 And they were coupled beneath, and
coupled together at the head thereof, to one
ring: thus he did to both of them in both the
corners.
30 And there were eight boards; and their
sockets were sixteen sockets of silver, under
every board two sockets.
31 And he made bars of shittim wood; five
for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,
32 And five bars for the boards of the
other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for
the boards of the tabernacle for the sides
westward.
33 And he made the middle bar to shoot
through the boards from the one end to the other.
34 And he overlaid the boards with gold,
and made their rings of gold to be places for the
bars, and overlaid the bars with gold.
35 And he made a vail of blue, and purple,
and scarlet, and fine twined linen: with
cherubims made he it of cunning work.
36 And he made thereunto four pillars of
shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold: their
hooks were of gold; and he cast for them four
sockets of silver.
37 And he made an hanging for the
tabernacle door of blue, and purple, and scarlet,
and fine twined linen, of needlework;
38 And the five pillars of it with their
hooks: and he overlaid their chapiters and their
fillets with gold: but their five sockets were of
brass.
