Exodus 36

1Then 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.

1Beseleel therefore, and Ooliab, and every wise man, to whom the Lord gave wisdom and understanding, to know how to work artificially, made the things that are necessary for the uses of the sanctuary, and which the Lord commanded.

2And 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:

2And when Moses had called them, and every skilful man, to whom the Lord had given wisdom, and such as of their own accord had offered themselves to the making of the work,

3And 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.

3He delivered all the offerings of the children of Israel unto them. And while they were earnest about the work, the people daily in the morning offered their vows.

4And all the wise men, that wrought all the work of the sanctuary, came every man from his work which they made;

4Whereupon the workmen being constrained to come,

5And they spake unto Moses, saying, The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work, which the Lord commanded to make.

5Said to Moses: The people offereth more than is necessary.

6And 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.

6Moses therefore commanded proclamation to be made by the crier's voice: Let neither man nor woman offer any more for the work of the sanctuary. And so they ceased from offering gifts,

7For the stuff they had was sufficient for all the work to make it, and too much.

7Because the things that were offered did suffice, and were too much.

8And 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.

8And all the men that were wise of heart, to accomplish the work of the tabernacle, made ten curtains of twisted fine linen, and violet, and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, with varied work, and the art of embroidering:

9The length of one curtain was twenty and eight cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: the curtains were all of one size.

9The length of one curtain was twenty-eight cubits, and the breadth four: all the curtains were of the same size.

10And he coupled the five curtains one unto another: and the other five curtains he coupled one unto another.

10And he joined five curtains, one to another, and the other five he coupled one to another.

11And 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.

11He made also loops of violet in the edge of one curtain on both sides, and in the edge of the other curtain in like manner,

12Fifty 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.

12That the loops might meet one against another, and might be joined each with the other.

13And he made fifty taches of gold, and coupled the curtains one unto another with the taches: so it became one tabernacle.

13Whereupon also he cast fifty rings of gold, that might catch the loops of the curtains, and they might be made one tabernacle.

14And he made curtains of goats’ hair for the tent over the tabernacle: eleven curtains he made them.

14He made also eleven curtains of goats' hair, to cover the roof of the tabernacle:

15The length of one curtain was thirty cubits, and four cubits was the breadth of one curtain: the eleven curtains were of one size.

15One curtain was thirty cubits long, and four cubits broad: all the curtains were of one measure.

16And he coupled five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves.

16Five of which he joined apart, and the other six apart.

17And 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.

17And he made fifty loops in the edge of one curtain, and fifty in the edge of another curtain, that they might be joined one to another.

18And he made fifty taches of brass to couple the tent together, that it might be one.

18And fifty buckles of brass wherewith the roof might be knit together, that of all the curtains there might be made one covering.

19And he made a covering for the tent of rams’ skins dyed red, and a covering of badgers’ skins above that.

19He made also a cover for the tabernacle of rams' skins dyed red; and another cover over that of violet skins.

20And he made boards for the tabernacle of shittim wood, standing up.

20He made also the boards of the tabernacle of setim wood standing.

21The length of a board was ten cubits, and the breadth of a board one cubit and a half.

21The length of one board was ten cubits; and the breadth was one cubit and a half.

22One board had two tenons, equally distant one from another: thus did he make for all the boards of the tabernacle.

22There were two mortises throughout every board, that one might be joined to the other. And in this manner he made for all the boards of the tabernacle.

23And he made boards for the tabernacle; twenty boards for the south side southward:

23Of which twenty were at the south side southward,

24And 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.

24With forty sockets of silver, two sockets were put under one board on the two sides of the corners, where the mortises of the sides end in the corners.

25And for the other side of the tabernacle, which is toward the north corner, he made twenty boards,

25At that side also of the tabernacle, that looketh towards the north, he made twenty boards,

26And their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.

26With forty sockets of silver, two sockets for every board.

27And for the sides of the tabernacle westward he made six boards.

27But against the west, to wit, at that side of the tabernacle, which looketh to the sea, he made six boards,

28And two boards made he for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides.

28And two others at each corner of the tabernacle behind:

29And 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.

29Which were also joined from beneath unto the top, and went together into one joint. Thus he did on both sides at the corners:

30And there were eight boards; and their sockets were sixteen sockets of silver, under every board two sockets.

30So there were in all eight boards, and they had sixteen sockets of silver, to wit, two sockets under every board.

31And he made bars of shittim wood; five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,

31He made also bars of setim wood, five to hold together the boards of one side of the tabernacle,

32And 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.

32And five others to join together the boards of the other side; and besides these, five other bars at the west side of the tabernacle towards the sea.

33And he made the middle bar to shoot through the boards from the one end to the other.

33He made also another bar, that might come by the midst of the boards from corner to corner.

34And he overlaid the boards with gold, and made their rings of gold to be places for the bars, and overlaid the bars with gold.

34And the boards themselves he overlaid with gold casting for them sockets of silver. And their rings he made of gold, through which the bars might be drawn: and he covered the bars themselves with plates of gold.

35And he made a vail of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen: with cherubims made he it of cunning work.

35He made also a veil of violet, and purple, scarlet and fine twisted linen, varied and distinguished with embroidery:

36And 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.

36And four pillars of setim wood, which with their heads he overlaid with gold, casting for them sockets of silver.

37And he made an hanging for the tabernacle door of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, of needlework;

37He made also a hanging in the entry of the tabernacle of violet, purple, scarlet, and fine twisted linen, with the work of an embroiderer.

38And 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.

38And five pillars with their heads, which he covered with gold, and their sockets he cast of brass.
