Exodus 36:13-24 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

13. Then they made 50 gold hooks to join the two pieces together. So the Holy Tent was joined together as one piece.

14. Then the workers made another tent of 11 pieces of cloth made of goat hair. This was to put over the Holy Tent.

15. All 11 pieces were the same size. They were 45 feet long and 6 feet wide.

16. The workers sewed five pieces together into one set. Then they sewed six together into another set.

17. They made 50 loops along the edge of the outside piece of one set. And they made 50 loops along the edge of the outside piece of the other set.

18. Then they made 50 bronze rings to join the two sets of cloth together and make the tent one piece.

19. Then they made two more coverings for the outer tent. One covering was made of male sheep skin colored red. The other covering was made of fine leather.

20. Then they made upright frames of acacia wood.

21. Each board was 15 feet tall and 27 inches wide.

22. There were two pegs side by side on each frame. Every frame of the Holy Tent was made this same way.

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

24. Then they made 40 silver bases that went under the 20 frames. There were two bases for every frame—one for each peg of each board.
