17. At the sides of the panels, there shall be made two dovetails, by which one panel may be connected to another panel; and in this way all the panels shall be prepared.
18. Of these, twenty shall be at the meridian, which lies toward the south.
19. For these, you shall cast forty bases of silver, so that two bases will lie under each panel at its two corners.
20. Likewise, at the second side of the tabernacle, which lies to the north, there shall be twenty panels,
21. having forty bases of silver; two bases shall support each panel.
22. Truly, toward the western part of the tabernacle, you shall make six panels,
23. and again another two, which will be raised at the corners, behind the back of the tabernacle.
24. And these shall be joined together from bottom to top, and one joint shall retain them all. Likewise, two of the panels, which will be set at the corners, shall be served by similar joints.
25. And together these will be eight panels, and their bases of silver, sixteen, counting two bases for each panel.
26. You shall also make five bars of setim wood, to connect the panels on one side of the tabernacle,
27. and five others on the other side, and the same number toward the western part.
28. These shall be set along the middle of the panels, from one end all the way to the other end.
