Exodus 26

KING JAMES BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Moreover thou shalt make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet: with cherubims of cunning work shalt thou make them.	1 “Truly, thus shall you make the tabernacle: You shall make ten curtains of fine twisted linen, and hyacinth as well as purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, with diverse embroidery.
2 The length of one curtain shall be eight and twenty cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: and every one of the curtains shall have one measure.	2 The length of one curtain shall have twenty-eight cubits. The width shall be four cubits. The entire set of curtains shall be of one measure.
3 The five curtains shall be coupled together one to another; and other five curtains shall be coupled one to another.	3 Five curtains shall be joined to one another, and the other five shall be similarly coupled together.
4 And thou shalt make loops of blue upon the edge of the one curtain from the selvedge in the coupling; and likewise shalt thou make in the uttermost edge of another curtain, in the coupling of the second.	4 You shall make loops of hyacinth on the sides at the edges of the curtains, so that they will be able to be joined to one another.
5 Fifty loops shalt thou make in the one curtain, and fifty loops shalt thou make in the edge of the curtain that is in the coupling of the second; that the loops may take hold one of another.	5 A curtain shall have fifty loops on each of two sides, inserted in such a manner that loop may come against loop, and one can be fitted to the other.
6 And thou shalt make fifty taches of gold, and couple the curtains together with the taches: and it shall be one tabernacle.	6 You shall also make fifty rings of gold, with which the veils of the curtains are to be joined, so that it shall be one tabernacle.
7 And thou shalt make curtains of goats' hair to be a covering upon the tabernacle: eleven curtains shalt thou make.	7 You shall also make eleven haircloth canopies to cover the roof of the tabernacle.
8 The length of one curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: and the eleven curtains shall be all of one measure.	8 The length of one canopy shall hold thirty cubits, and the width, four. The measure of all the canopies shall be equal.
9 And thou shalt couple five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves, and shalt double the sixth curtain in the forefront of the tabernacle.	9 Five of these you shall join by themselves, and six of these you shall couple to one another, in such a manner as to double the sixth canopy at the front of the roof.
10 And thou shalt make fifty loops on the edge of the one curtain that is outmost in the coupling, and fifty loops in the edge of the curtain which coupleth the second.	10 You shall also make fifty loops along the edge of one canopy, so that it may be able to be joined with the other, and fifty loops along the edge of the other canopy, so that it may be coupled with the other.
11 And thou shalt make fifty taches of brass, and put the taches into the loops, and couple the tent together, that it may be one.	11 You shall also make fifty brass buckles, with which the loops may be joined, so that there may be one covering out of all.
12 And the remnant that remaineth of the curtains of the tent, the half curtain that remaineth, shall hang over the backside of the tabernacle.	12 Then what will be left over of the canopies which are prepared for the roof, that is, one canopy which is in excess, from half of it you shall cover the back of the tabernacle.
13 And a cubit on the one side, and a cubit on the other side of that which remaineth in the length of the curtains of the tent, it shall hang over the sides of the tabernacle on this side and on that side, to cover it.	13 And one cubit will hang down on one side, and another on the other side, which is more than the length of the curtains, protecting both sides of the tabernacle.
14 And thou shalt make a covering for the tent of rams' skins dyed red, and a covering above of badgers' skins.	14 You shall also make another covering for the roof from the skins of rams, dyed-red, and above that again, another covering of violet-colored skins.
15 And thou shalt make boards for the tabernacle of shittim wood standing up.	15 You shall also make the standing panels of the tabernacle from setim wood.
16 Ten cubits shall be the length of a board, and a cubit and a half shall be the breadth of one board.	16 Of these, each shall have ten cubits in length, and in width, one and one half.
17 Two tenons shall there be in one board, set in order one against another: thus shalt thou make for all the boards of the tabernacle.	17 At the sides of the panels, there shall be made two dovetails, by which one panel may be connected to another panel; and in this way all the panels shall be prepared.
18 And thou shalt make the boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards on the south side southward.	18 Of these, twenty shall be at the meridian, which lies toward the south.
19 And thou shalt make forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards; two sockets under one board for his two tenons, and two sockets under another board for his two tenons.	19 For these, you shall cast forty bases of silver, so that two bases will lie under each panel at its two corners.
20 And for the second side of the tabernacle on the north side there shall be twenty boards:	20 Likewise, at the second side of the tabernacle, which lies to the north, there shall be twenty panels,
21 And their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.	21 having forty bases of silver; two bases shall support each panel.
22 And for the sides of the tabernacle westward thou shalt make six boards.	22 Truly, toward the western part of the tabernacle, you shall make six panels,
23 And two boards shalt thou make for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides.	23 and again another two, which will be raised at the corners, behind the back of the tabernacle.
24 And they shall be coupled together beneath, and they shall be coupled together above the head of it unto one ring: thus shall it be for them both; they shall be for the two corners.	24 And these shall be joined together from bottom to top, and one joint shall retain them all. Likewise, two of the panels, which will be set at the corners, shall be served by similar joints.
25 And they shall be eight boards, and their sockets of silver, sixteen sockets; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.	25 And together these will be eight panels, and their bases of silver, sixteen, counting two bases for each panel.
26 And thou shalt make bars of shittim wood; five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,	26 You shall also make five bars of setim wood, to connect the panels on one side of the tabernacle,
27 And five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the side of the tabernacle, for the two sides westward.	27 and five others on the other side, and the same number toward the western part.
28 And the middle bar in the midst of the boards shall reach from end to end.	28 These shall be set along the middle of the panels, from one end all the way to the other end.
29 And thou shalt overlay the boards with gold, and make their rings of gold for places for the bars: and thou shalt overlay the bars with gold.	29 Likewise, the panels themselves you shall overlay with gold, and you shall establish rings of gold in them, by which the bars of the panels may be connected. These you shall cover with layers of gold.
30 And thou shalt rear up the tabernacle according to the fashion thereof which was shewed thee in the mount.	30 And you shall raise the tabernacle according to the example which was shown to you on the mountain.
31 And thou shalt make a vail of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen of cunning work: with cherubims shall it be made:	31 You shall also make a veil of hyacinth, and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine twisted linen, wrought with a diversity of continuous and beautiful embroidery.
32 And thou shalt hang it upon four pillars of shittim wood overlaid with gold: their hooks shall be of gold, upon the four sockets of silver.	32 And you shall suspend it before four columns of setim wood, which themselves certainly shall be overlaid with gold, and have heads of gold, but bases of silver.
33 And thou shalt hang up the vail under the taches, that thou mayest bring in thither within the vail the ark of the testimony: and the vail shall divide unto you between the holy place and the most holy.	33 Then the veil shall be inserted through the rings. Beyond the veil, you shall place the ark of the testimony, where both the Sanctuary and the Sanctuary of Sanctuaries shall be divided.
34 And thou shalt put the mercy seat upon the ark of the testimony in the most holy place.	34 And you shall place the propitiatory over the ark of the testimony, in the Holy of Holies.
35 And thou shalt set the table without the vail, and the candlestick over against the table on the side of the tabernacle toward the south: and thou shalt put the table on the north side.	35 And the table shall be outside the veil. And opposite the table shall be the lampstand, in the meridian of the tabernacle. For the table shall stand at the north side.
36 And thou shalt make an hanging for the door of the tent, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, wrought with needlework.	36 You shall also make a tent at the entrance of the tabernacle from hyacinth, and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine twisted linen, wrought with embroidery.
37 And thou shalt make for the hanging five pillars of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, and their hooks shall be of gold: and thou shalt cast five sockets of brass for them.	37 And you shall overlay with gold five columns of setim wood, over which the tent shall be drawn. The heads of these shall be of gold, and the bases of brass.”
