Exodus:38-40
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And he made the altar of burnt offering of shittim wood :
five cubits was the length thereof ,
and five cubits the breadth thereof ;
it was foursquare ;
and three cubits the height thereof .
*
And he made the horns thereof on the four corners of it ;
the horns thereof were of the same :
and he overlaid it with brass .
*
And he made all the vessels of the altar ,
the pots ,
and the shovels ,
and the basons ,
and the fleshhooks ,
and the firepans :
all the vessels thereof made he of brass .
*
And he made for the altar a brasen grate of network under the compass thereof beneath unto the midst of it .
*
And he cast four rings for the four ends of the grate of brass ,
to be places for the staves .
*
And he made the staves of shittim wood ,
and overlaid them with brass .
*
And he put the staves into the rings on the sides of the altar ,
to bear it withal ;
he made the altar hollow with boards .
*
And he made the laver of brass ,
and the foot of it of brass ,
of the lookingglasses of the women assembling ,
which assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation .
*
And he made the court :
on the south side southward the hangings of the court were of fine twined linen ,
an hundred cubits :
*
Their pillars were twenty ,
and their brasen sockets twenty ;
the hooks of the pillars and their fillets were of silver .
*
And for the north side the hangings were an hundred cubits ,
their pillars were twenty ,
and their sockets of brass twenty ;
the hooks of the pillars and their fillets of silver .
*
And for the west side were hangings of fifty cubits ,
their pillars ten ,
and their sockets ten ;
the hooks of the pillars and their fillets of silver .
*
And for the east side eastward fifty cubits .
*
The hangings of the one side of the gate were fifteen cubits ;
their pillars three ,
and their sockets three .
*
And for the other side of the court gate ,
on this hand and that hand ,
were hangings of fifteen cubits ;
their pillars three ,
and their sockets three .
*
All the hangings of the court round about were of fine twined linen .
*
And the sockets for the pillars were of brass ;
the hooks of the pillars and their fillets of silver ;
and the overlaying of their chapiters of silver ;
and all the pillars of the court were filleted with silver .
*
And the hanging for the gate of the court was needlework ,
of blue ,
and purple ,
and scarlet ,
and fine twined linen :
and twenty cubits was the length ,
and the height in the breadth was five cubits ,
answerable to the hangings of the court .
*
And their pillars were four ,
and their sockets of brass four ;
their hooks of silver ,
and the overlaying of their chapiters and their fillets of silver .
*
And all the pins of the tabernacle ,
and of the court round about ,
were of brass .
*
This is the sum of the tabernacle ,
even of the tabernacle of testimony ,
as it was counted ,
according to the commandment of Moses ,
for the service of the Levites ,
by the hand of Ithamar ,
son to Aaron the priest .
*
And Bezaleel the son of Uri ,
the son of Hur ,
of the tribe of Judah ,
made all that the LORD commanded Moses .
*
And with him was Aholiab ,
son of Ahisamach ,
of the tribe of Dan ,
an engraver ,
and a cunning workman ,
and an embroiderer in blue ,
and in purple ,
and in scarlet ,
and fine linen .
*
All the gold that was occupied for the work in all the work of the holy place ,
even the gold of the offering ,
was twenty and nine talents ,
and seven hundred and thirty shekels ,
after the shekel of the sanctuary .
*
And the silver of them that were numbered of the congregation was an hundred talents ,
and a thousand seven hundred and threescore and fifteen shekels ,
after the shekel of the sanctuary :
*
A bekah for every man ,
that is ,
half a shekel ,
after the shekel of the sanctuary ,
for every one that went to be numbered ,
from twenty years old and upward ,
for six hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty men .
*
And of the hundred talents of silver were cast the sockets of the sanctuary ,
and the sockets of the vail ;
an hundred sockets of the hundred talents ,
a talent for a socket .
*
And of the thousand seven hundred seventy and five shekels he made hooks for the pillars ,
and overlaid their chapiters ,
and filleted them .
*
And the brass of the offering was seventy talents ,
and two thousand and four hundred shekels .
*
And therewith he made the sockets to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation ,
and the brasen altar ,
and the brasen grate for it ,
and all the vessels of the altar ,
*
And the sockets of the court round about ,
and the sockets of the court gate ,
and all the pins of the tabernacle ,
and all the pins of the court round about .
*
And of the blue ,
and purple ,
and scarlet ,
they made cloths of service ,
to do service in the holy place ,
and made the holy garments for Aaron ;
as the LORD commanded Moses .
*
And he made the ephod of gold ,
blue ,
and purple ,
and scarlet ,
and fine twined linen .
*
And they did beat the gold into thin plates ,
and cut it into wires ,
to work it in the blue ,
and in the purple ,
and in the scarlet ,
and in the fine linen ,
with cunning work .
*
They made shoulderpieces for it ,
to couple it together :
by the two edges was it coupled together .
*
And the curious girdle of his ephod ,
that was upon it ,
was of the same ,
according to the work thereof ;
of gold ,
blue ,
and purple ,
and scarlet ,
and fine twined linen ;
as the LORD commanded Moses .
*
And they wrought onyx stones inclosed in ouches of gold ,
graven ,
as signets are graven ,
with the names of the children of Israel .
*
And he put them on the shoulders of the ephod ,
that they should be stones for a memorial to the children of Israel ;
as the LORD commanded Moses .
*
And he made the breastplate of cunning work ,
like the work of the ephod ;
of gold ,
blue ,
and purple ,
and scarlet ,
and fine twined linen .
*
It was foursquare ;
they made the breastplate double :
a span was the length thereof ,
and a span the breadth thereof ,
being doubled .
*
And they set in it four rows of stones :
the first row was a sardius ,
a topaz ,
and a carbuncle :
this was the first row .
*
And the second row ,
an emerald ,
a sapphire ,
and a diamond .
*
And the third row ,
a ligure ,
an agate ,
and an amethyst .
*
And the fourth row ,
a beryl ,
an onyx ,
and a jasper :
they were inclosed in ouches of gold in their inclosings .
*
And the stones were according to the names of the children of Israel ,
twelve ,
according to their names ,
like the engravings of a signet ,
every one with his name ,
according to the twelve tribes .
*
And they made upon the breastplate chains at the ends ,
of wreathen work of pure gold .
*
And they made two ouches of gold ,
and two gold rings ;
and put the two rings in the two ends of the breastplate .
*
And they put the two wreathen chains of gold in the two rings on the ends of the breastplate .
*
And the two ends of the two wreathen chains they fastened in the two ouches ,
and put them on the shoulderpieces of the ephod ,
before it .
*
And they made two rings of gold ,
and put them on the two ends of the breastplate ,
upon the border of it ,
which was on the side of the ephod inward .
*
And they made two other golden rings ,
and put them on the two sides of the ephod underneath ,
toward the forepart of it ,
over against the other coupling thereof ,
above the curious girdle of the ephod .
*
And they did bind the breastplate by his rings unto the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue ,
that it might be above the curious girdle of the ephod ,
and that the breastplate might not be loosed from the ephod ;
as the LORD commanded Moses .
*
And he made the robe of the ephod of woven work ,
all of blue .
*
And there was an hole in the midst of the robe ,
as the hole of an habergeon ,
with a band round about the hole ,
that it should not rend .
*
And they made upon the hems of the robe pomegranates of blue ,
and purple ,
and scarlet ,
and twined linen .
*
And they made bells of pure gold ,
and put the bells between the pomegranates upon the hem of the robe ,
round about between the pomegranates ;
*
A bell and a pomegranate ,
a bell and a pomegranate ,
round about the hem of the robe to minister in ;
as the LORD commanded Moses .
*
And they made coats of fine linen of woven work for Aaron ,
and for his sons ,
*
And a mitre of fine linen ,
and goodly bonnets of fine linen ,
and linen breeches of fine twined linen ,
*
And a girdle of fine twined linen ,
and blue ,
and purple ,
and scarlet ,
of needlework ;
as the LORD commanded Moses .
*
And they made the plate of the holy crown of pure gold ,
and wrote upon it a writing ,
like to the engravings of a signet ,
HOLINESS TO THE LORD .
*
And they tied unto it a lace of blue ,
to fasten it on high upon the mitre ;
as the LORD commanded Moses .
*
Thus was all the work of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation finished :
and the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses ,
so did they .
*
And they brought the tabernacle unto Moses ,
the tent ,
and all his furniture ,
his taches ,
his boards ,
his bars ,
and his pillars ,
and his sockets ,
*
And the covering of rams '
skins dyed red ,
and the covering of badgers '
skins ,
and the vail of the covering ,
*
The ark of the testimony ,
and the staves thereof ,
and the mercy seat ,
*
The table ,
and all the vessels thereof ,
and the shewbread ,
*
The pure candlestick ,
with the lamps thereof ,
even with the lamps to be set in order ,
and all the vessels thereof ,
and the oil for light ,
*
And the golden altar ,
and the anointing oil ,
and the sweet incense ,
and the hanging for the tabernacle door ,
*
The brasen altar ,
and his grate of brass ,
his staves ,
and all his vessels ,
the laver and his foot ,
*
The hangings of the court ,
his pillars ,
and his sockets ,
and the hanging for the court gate ,
his cords ,
and his pins ,
and all the vessels of the service of the tabernacle ,
for the tent of the congregation ,
*
The cloths of service to do service in the holy place ,
and the holy garments for Aaron the priest ,
and his sons '
garments ,
to minister in the priest '
s office .
*
According to all that the LORD commanded Moses ,
so the children of Israel made all the work .
*
And Moses did look upon all the work ,
and ,
behold ,
they had done it as the LORD had commanded ,
even so had they done it :
and Moses blessed them .
*
And the LORD spake unto Moses ,
saying ,
*
On the first day of the first month shalt thou set up the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation .
*
And thou shalt put therein the ark of the testimony ,
and cover the ark with the vail .
*
And thou shalt bring in the table ,
and set in order the things that are to be set in order upon it ;
and thou shalt bring in the candlestick ,
and light the lamps thereof .
*
And thou shalt set the altar of gold for the incense before the ark of the testimony ,
and put the hanging of the door to the tabernacle .
*
And thou shalt set the altar of the burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation .
*
And thou shalt set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar ,
and shalt put water therein .
*
And thou shalt set up the court round about ,
and hang up the hanging at the court gate .
*
And thou shalt take the anointing oil ,
and anoint the tabernacle ,
and all that is therein ,
and shalt hallow it ,
and all the vessels thereof :
and it shall be holy .
*
And thou shalt anoint the altar of the burnt offering ,
and all his vessels ,
and sanctify the altar :
and it shall be an altar most holy .
*
And thou shalt anoint the laver and his foot ,
and sanctify it .
*
And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation ,
and wash them with water .
*
And thou shalt put upon Aaron the holy garments ,
and anoint him ,
and sanctify him ;
that he may minister unto me in the priest '
s office .
*
And thou shalt bring his sons ,
and clothe them with coats :
*
And thou shalt anoint them ,
as thou didst anoint their father ,
that they may minister unto me in the priest '
s office :
for their anointing shall surely be an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations .
*
Thus did Moses :
according to all that the LORD commanded him ,
so did he .
*
And it came to pass in the first month in the second year ,
on the first day of the month ,
that the tabernacle was reared up .
*
And Moses reared up the tabernacle ,
and fastened his sockets ,
and set up the boards thereof ,
and put in the bars thereof ,
and reared up his pillars .
*
And he spread abroad the tent over the tabernacle ,
and put the covering of the tent above upon it ;
as the LORD commanded Moses .
*
And he took and put the testimony into the ark ,
and set the staves on the ark ,
and put the mercy seat above upon the ark :
*
And he brought the ark into the tabernacle ,
and set up the vail of the covering ,
and covered the ark of the testimony ;
as the LORD commanded Moses .
*
And he put the table in the tent of the congregation ,
upon the side of the tabernacle northward ,
without the vail .
*
And he set the bread in order upon it before the LORD ;
as the LORD had commanded Moses .
*
And he put the candlestick in the tent of the congregation ,
over against the table ,
on the side of the tabernacle southward .
*
And he lighted the lamps before the LORD ;
as the LORD commanded Moses .
*
And he put the golden altar in the tent of the congregation before the vail :
*
And he burnt sweet incense thereon ;
as the LORD commanded Moses .
*
And he set up the hanging at the door of the tabernacle .
*
And he put the altar of burnt offering by the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation ,
and offered upon it the burnt offering and the meat offering ;
as the LORD commanded Moses .
*
And he set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar ,
and put water there ,
to wash withal .
*
And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet thereat :
*
When they went into the tent of the congregation ,
and when they came near unto the altar ,
they washed ;
as the LORD commanded Moses .
*
And he reared up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar ,
and set up the hanging of the court gate .
So Moses finished the work .
*
Then a cloud covered the tent of the congregation ,
and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle .
*
And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of the congregation ,
because the cloud abode thereon ,
and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle .
*
And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle ,
the children of Israel went onward in all their journeys :
*
But if the cloud were not taken up ,
then they journeyed not till the day that it was taken up .
*
For the cloud of the LORD was upon the tabernacle by day ,
and fire was on it by night ,
in the sight of all the house of Israel ,
throughout all their journeys .
