CHAPTER 36
Then wrought Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wise hearted man, in whom the L
ORD
put wisdom
and understanding to know how to work all manner of work for the service of the sanctuary,
according to all that the L
ORD
had commanded.
2
And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab, and
every wise hearted man, in whose heart the L
ORD
had put wisdom,
even
every one whose heart
stirred him up to come unto the work to do it:
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.
4
And all the wise men, that wrought
all the work of the sanctuary, came every man from his work which they made;
5
And they spake unto Moses, saying, The people bring much more than enough for the service
of the work, which the L
ORD
commanded to make.
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.
7
For the
stuff they had was sufficient for all the work to make it, and too much.
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
cherubims of cunning work
made he them.
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.
10
And he coupled the five curtains one unto
another: and
the other
five curtains he coupled one unto another.
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.
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.
13
And he made fifty taches of gold, and coupled the curtains one unto
another with the taches: so it became one tabernacle.
14
And he made curtains
of
goats’
hair
for the tent over the tabernacle: eleven curtains he made
them.
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.
16
And he coupled five curtains by themselves, and six curtains
by themselves.
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.
18
And he made
fifty taches
of
brass to couple the tent together, that it might be one.
19
And he made a covering for
the tent
of
rams’ skins dyed red, and a covering
of
badgers’ skins above
that.
20
And he made boards for the tabernacle
of
shittim wood, standing up.
21
The length of a board
was
ten cubits, and the breadth of a board one cubit and a half.
22
One board had two tenons, equally
distant one from another: thus did he make for all the boards of the tabernacle.
23
And he made
boards for the tabernacle; twenty boards for the south side southward:
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.
25
And for the other side of the tabernacle,
which is
toward
