| Chapter 27 |
1 | 'You shall make the altar of acacia wood, five cubits long, and five cubits broad; the altar shall be foursquare: and its height shall be three cubits.
|
2 | You shall make its horns on its four corners; its horns shall be of one piece with it; and you shall overlay it with brass.
|
3 | You shall make its pots to take away its ashes, its shovels, its basins, its flesh hooks, and its fire pans: all its vessels you shall make of brass.
|
4 | You shall make a grating for it of network of brass: and on the net you shall make four brazen rings in its four corners.
|
5 | You shall put it under the ledge around the altar beneath, that the net may reach halfway up the altar.
|
6 | You shall make poles for the altar, poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with brass.
|
7 | Its poles shall be put into the rings, and the poles shall be on the two sides of the altar, when carrying it.
|
8 | Hollow with planks shall you make it: as it has been showed you on the mountain, so shall they make it.
|
9 | 'You shall make the court of the tent: for the south side southward there shall be hangings for the court of fine twined linen one hundred cubits long for one side:
|
10 | and the pillars of it shall be twenty, and their sockets twenty, of brass; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets shall be of silver.
|
11 | Likewise for the north side in length there shall be hangings one hundred cubits long, and the pillars of it twenty, and their sockets twenty, of brass; the hooks of the pillars, and their fillets, of silver.
|
12 | For the breadth of the court on the west side shall be hangings of fifty cubits; their pillars ten, and their sockets ten.
|
13 | The breadth of the court on the east side eastward shall be fifty cubits.
|
14 | The hangings for the one side of the gate shall be fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three.
|
15 | For the other side shall be hangings of fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three.
|
16 | For the gate of the court shall be a screen of twenty cubits, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, the work of the embroiderer; their pillars four, and their sockets four.
|
17 | All the pillars of the court round about shall be filleted with silver; their hooks of silver, and their sockets of brass.
|
18 | The length of the court shall be one hundred cubits, and the breadth fifty every where, and the height five cubits, of fine twined linen, and their sockets of brass.
|
19 | All the instruments of the tent in all its service, and all the pins of it, and all the pins of the court, shall be of brass.
|
20 | 'You shall command the children of Israel, that they bring to you pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually.
|
21 | In the tent of meeting, outside the veil which is before the testimony, Aaron and his sons shall keep it in order from evening to morning before Yahweh: it shall be a statute forever throughout their generations on the behalf of the children of Israel.
