Exodus 36:6-19 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

6. And Moses commanded, and they proclaimed the message in the camp, saying, “Let no man or woman again make anything for the sanctuary contribution.” And so the people were restrained from bringing.

7. And the material was enough for doing all the work, and it was left over.

8. And all who were skilled of heart among the doers of the work made the tabernacle with ten curtains of finely twisted linen and blue and purple and crimson yarns, with cherubim; he made them, the work of a skilled craftsman.

9. The length of the one curtain was twenty-eight cubits, and the width was four cubits for the one curtain; one measurement was for all the curtains.

10. And he joined five of the curtains one to another, and five curtains he joined one to another.

11. And he made loops of blue on the edge of the one curtain, at the end in the set; so he did on the edge of the end curtain in the second set.

12. He made fifty loops on the one curtain, and he made fifty loops on the end of the curtain that was in the second set; the loops were opposite one to another.

13. And he made fifty gold clasps and joined the curtains one to another with the clasps, so that the tabernacle was one.

14. And he made curtains of goat hair for a tent over the tabernacle; he made them eleven curtains.

15. The length of the one curtain was thirty cubits, and the width was four cubits for the one curtain; one measure was for the eleven curtains.

16. And he joined five curtains together and six curtains together.

17. And he made fifty loops on the edge of the end curtain in the set, and he made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain in the second set.

18. And he made fifty bronze clasps for joining the tent to become one.

19. And he made a covering for the tent of red-dyed ram skin and a covering of fine leather to go above.
