Exodus 38:1-13 English Standard Version (ESV)

1. He made the altar of burnt offering of acacia wood. Five cubits was its length, and five cubits its breadth. It was square, and three cubits was its height.

2. He made horns for it on its four corners. Its horns were of one piece with it, and he overlaid it with bronze.

3. And he made all the utensils of the altar, the pots, the shovels, the basins, the forks, and the fire pans. He made all its utensils of bronze.

4. And he made for the altar a grating, a network of bronze, under its ledge, extending halfway down.

5. He cast four rings on the four corners of the bronze grating as holders for the poles.

6. He made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze.

7. And he put the poles through the rings on the sides of the altar to carry it with them. He made it hollow, with boards.

8. He made the basin of bronze and its stand of bronze, from the mirrors of the ministering women who ministered in the entrance of the tent of meeting.

9. And he made the court. For the south side the hangings of the court were of fine twined linen, a hundred cubits;

10. their twenty pillars and their twenty bases were of bronze, but the hooks of the pillars and their fillets were of silver.

11. And for the north side there were hangings of a hundred cubits, their twenty pillars, their twenty bases were of bronze, but the hooks of the pillars and their fillets were of silver.

12. And for the west side were hangings of fifty cubits, their ten pillars, and their ten bases; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets were of silver.

13. And for the front to the east, fifty cubits.
