Exodus 26:3-9 Common English Bible (CEB)

3. Five curtains will be joined to each other as one set, while the other five curtains will be joined together as a second set.

4. Make loops of blue thread on the edge of the outer curtain in the first set. Do the same on the edge of the outer curtain in the second set.

5. Make fifty loops on the one curtain in the first set and fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that is in the second set. The loops should be opposite each other.

6. Then make fifty gold clasps. Join the curtains to each other with the clasps so that the dwelling becomes one whole structure.

7. You should also make curtains of goats’ hair for a tent over the dwelling. Make eleven curtains.

8. Each curtain should be forty-five feet long and each curtain six feet wide. The eleven curtains should all be the same size.

9. Join five of the curtains together, and join the six other curtains together. Double over the sixth curtain at the front of the tent.
