| 1They built the altar of burnt offering of acacia wood, three cubits high; it was square, five cubits long and five cubits wide. | 1Then he made the altar of burnt offering of acacia wood, five cubits long, and five cubits wide, square, and three cubits high. |
| 2They made a horn at each of the four corners, so that the horns and the altar were of one piece, and they overlaid the altar with bronze. | 2He made its horns on its four corners, its horns being of one piece with it, and he overlaid it with bronze. |
| 3They made all its utensils of bronze--its pots, shovels, sprinkling bowls, meat forks and firepans. | 3He made all the utensils of the altar, the pails and the shovels and the basins, the flesh hooks and the firepans; he made all its utensils of bronze. |
| 4They made a grating for the altar, a bronze network, to be under its ledge, halfway up the altar. | 4He made for the altar a grating of bronze network beneath, under its ledge, reaching halfway up. |
| 5They cast bronze rings to hold the poles for the four corners of the bronze grating. | 5He cast four rings on the four ends of the bronze grating as holders for the poles. |
| 6They made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze. | 6He made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze. |
| 7They inserted the poles into the rings so they would be on the sides of the altar for carrying it. They made it hollow, out of boards. | 7He inserted the poles into the rings on the sides of the altar, with which to carry it. He made it hollow with planks. |
| 8They made the bronze basin and its bronze stand from the mirrors of the women who served at the entrance to the tent of meeting. | 8Moreover, he made the laver of bronze with its base of bronze, from the mirrors of the serving women who served at the doorway of the tent of meeting. |
| 9Next they made the courtyard. The south side was a hundred cubits long and had curtains of finely twisted linen, | 9Then he made the court: for the south side the hangings of the court were of fine twisted linen, one hundred cubits; |
| 10with twenty posts and twenty bronze bases, and with silver hooks and bands on the posts. | 10their twenty pillars, and their twenty sockets, made of bronze; the hooks of the pillars and their bands were of silver. |
| 11The north side was also a hundred cubits long and had twenty posts and twenty bronze bases, with silver hooks and bands on the posts. | 11For the north side there were one hundred cubits; their twenty pillars and their twenty sockets were of bronze, the hooks of the pillars and their bands were of silver. |
| 12The west end was fifty cubits wide and had curtains, with ten posts and ten bases, with silver hooks and bands on the posts. | 12For the west side there were hangings of fifty cubits with their ten pillars and their ten sockets; the hooks of the pillars and their bands were of silver. |
| 13The east end, toward the sunrise, was also fifty cubits wide. | 13For the east side fifty cubits. |
| 14Curtains fifteen cubits long were on one side of the entrance, with three posts and three bases, | 14The hangings for the one side of the gate were fifteen cubits, with their three pillars and their three sockets, |
| 15and curtains fifteen cubits long were on the other side of the entrance to the courtyard, with three posts and three bases. | 15and so for the other side. On both sides of the gate of the court were hangings of fifteen cubits, with their three pillars and their three sockets. |
| 16All the curtains around the courtyard were of finely twisted linen. | 16All the hangings of the court all around were of fine twisted linen. |
| 17The bases for the posts were bronze. The hooks and bands on the posts were silver, and their tops were overlaid with silver; so all the posts of the courtyard had silver bands. | 17The sockets for the pillars were of bronze, the hooks of the pillars and their bands, of silver; and the overlaying of their tops, of silver, and all the pillars of the court were furnished with silver bands. |
| 18The curtain for the entrance to the courtyard was made of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen--the work of an embroiderer. It was twenty cubits long and, like the curtains of the courtyard, five cubits high, | 18The screen of the gate of the court was the work of the weaver, of blue and purple and scarlet material and fine twisted linen. And the length was twenty cubits and the height was five cubits, corresponding to the hangings of the court. |
| 19with four posts and four bronze bases. Their hooks and bands were silver, and their tops were overlaid with silver. | 19Their four pillars and their four sockets were of bronze; their hooks were of silver, and the overlaying of their tops and their bands were of silver. |
| 20All the tent pegs of the tabernacle and of the surrounding courtyard were bronze. | 20All the pegs of the tabernacle and of the court all around were of bronze. |
| 21These are the amounts of the materials used for the tabernacle, the tabernacle of the covenant law, which were recorded at Moses' command by the Levites under the direction of Ithamar son of Aaron, the priest. | 21This is the number of the things for the tabernacle, the tabernacle of the testimony, as they were numbered according to the command of Moses, for the service of the Levites, by the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. |
| 22(Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made everything the LORD commanded Moses; | 22Now Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made all that the LORD had commanded Moses. |
| 23with him was Oholiab son of Ahisamak, of the tribe of Dan--an engraver and designer, and an embroiderer in blue, purple and scarlet yarn and fine linen.) | 23With him was Oholiab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, an engraver and a skillful workman and a weaver in blue and in purple and in scarlet material, and fine linen. |
| 24The total amount of the gold from the wave offering used for all the work on the sanctuary was 29 talents and 730 shekels, according to the sanctuary shekel. | 24All the gold that was used for the work, in all the work of the sanctuary, even the gold of the wave offering, was 29 talents and 730 shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary. |

| 26one beka per person, that is, half a shekel, according to the sanctuary shekel, from everyone who had crossed over to those counted, twenty years old or more, a total of 603,550 men. | 26a beka a head (that is, half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary), for each one who passed over to those who were numbered, from twenty years old and upward, for 603,550 men. |
| 27The 100 talents of silver were used to cast the bases for the sanctuary and for the curtain--100 bases from the 100 talents, one talent for each base. | 27The hundred talents of silver were for casting the sockets of the sanctuary and the sockets of the veil; one hundred sockets for the hundred talents, a talent for a socket. |
| 28They used the 1,775 shekels to make the hooks for the posts, to overlay the tops of the posts, and to make their bands. | 28Of the 1,775 shekels, he made hooks for the pillars and overlaid their tops and made bands for them. |
| 29The bronze from the wave offering was 70 talents and 2,400 shekels. | 29The bronze of the wave offering was 70 talents and 2,400 shekels. |
| 30They used it to make the bases for the entrance to the tent of meeting, the bronze altar with its bronze grating and all its utensils, | 30With it he made the sockets to the doorway of the tent of meeting, and the bronze altar and its bronze grating, and all the utensils of the altar, |
| 31the bases for the surrounding courtyard and those for its entrance and all the tent pegs for the tabernacle and those for the surrounding courtyard. | 31and the sockets of the court all around and the sockets of the gate of the court, and all the pegs of the tabernacle and all the pegs of the court all around. |
