Bezalel and Oholiab (continued)
36:1 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.
36:2 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:
36:3 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.
36:4 And all the wise men, that wrought all the work of the
sanctuary, came every man from his work which they made;
36:5 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.
36:6 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.
36:7 For the stuff they had was sufficient for all the work
to make it, and too much.
The Tabernacle
36:8 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
cherubim of cunning work made he them.
36:9 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.
36:10 And he coupled the five curtains one unto another:
and the other five curtains he coupled one unto another.
36:11 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.
36:12 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.
36:13 And he made fifty taches of gold, and coupled the
curtains one unto another with the taches: so it became one
tabernacle.
36:14 And he made curtains of goats' hair for the tent over
the tabernacle: eleven curtains he made them.
36:15 The length of one curtain was thirty cubits, and four
cubits was the breadth of one curtain: the eleven curtains
were of one size.
36:16 And he coupled five curtains by themselves, and six
curtains by themselves.
36:17 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.
36:18 And he made fifty taches of brass to couple the tent
together, that it might be one.
36:19 And he made a covering for the tent of rams' skins
dyed red, and a covering of badgers' skins above that.
36:20 And he made boards for the tabernacle of shittim
wood, standing up.
36:21 The length of a board was ten cubits, and the breadth
of a board one cubit and a half.
36:22 One board had two tenons, equally distant one from
another: thus did he make for all the boards of the
tabernacle.
36:23 And he made boards for the tabernacle; twenty boards
for the south side southward:
36:24 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.
36:25 And for the other side of the tabernacle, which is
toward the north corner, he made twenty boards,
36:26 And their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under
one board, and two sockets under another board.
36:27 And for the sides of the tabernacle westward he made
six boards.
36:28 And two boards made he for the corners of the
tabernacle in the two sides.
36:29 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.
36:30 And there were eight boards; and their sockets were
sixteen sockets of silver, under every board two sockets.
36:31 And he made bars of shittim wood; five for the boards
of the one side of the tabernacle,
36:32 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.
36:33 And he made the middle bar to shoot through the
boards from the one end to the other.
36:34 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.
36:35 And he made a vail of blue, and purple, and scarlet,
and fine twined linen: with cherubim made he it of cunning
work.
36:36 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.
36:37 And he made an hanging for the tabernacle door of
blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, of
needlework;
36:38 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. |
