Exodus 36:20-38 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

20. Then the workers made frames from acacia wood to support the Holy Tent.

21. Each frame was 10 cubits long and 1 1/2 cubits wide.

22. There were two side poles joined together with cross pieces to make each frame. Every frame for the Holy Tent was made the same.

23. They made 20 frames for the south side of the Holy Tent.

24. Then they made 40 silver bases for the frames. There were two bases for each frame—one base for each side pole.

25. They also made 20 frames for the other side (the north side) of the Holy Tent.

26. They made 40 silver bases for the frames—two bases for each frame.

27. They made six more frames for the back (the west side) of the Holy Tent.

28. They also made two frames for the corners at the back of the Holy Tent.

29. These frames were joined together at the bottom. And at the top a ring held the corner frames together. They did the same for both corners.

30. There were eight frames for the west side of the Holy Tent. And there were 16 silver bases—two bases for each frame.

31. Then the workers used acacia wood to make the braces for the frames—five braces for the first side of the Holy Tent,

32. five braces for the other side, and five braces for the back of the Holy Tent (that is, the west side).

33. They made the middle brace so that it passed through the frames from one end to the other.

34. They covered these frames with gold. Then they used gold to make the rings to hold the braces, and they covered the braces with gold.

35. They used fine linen and blue, purple, and red yarn to make the special curtain for the entrance to the Most Holy Place. And they sewed pictures of Cherub angels into the curtain.

36. They made four posts using acacia wood, and they covered the posts with gold. Then they made gold hooks for the posts and four silver bases for the posts.

37. Then they made the curtain to cover the entrance to the Tent. They used blue, purple, and red yarn and fine linen to make this curtain. And they wove pictures into it.

38. Then they made the five posts and the hooks for this curtain over the entrance. They covered the tops of the posts and the curtain rods with gold. And they made the five bronze bases for the posts.
