1. The tabernacle itself you shall make out of ten sheets woven of fine linen twined and of violet, purple, and scarlet yarn, with cherubim embroidered on them.
2. The length of each shall be twenty-eight cubits, and the width four cubits; all the sheets shall be of the same size.
3. Five of the sheets are to be joined one to another; and the same for the other five.
4. Make loops of violet yarn along the edge of the end sheet in one set, and the same along the edge of the end sheet in the other set.
5. Make fifty loops along the edge of the end sheet in the first set, and fifty loops along the edge of the corresponding sheet in the second set, and so placed that the loops are directly opposite each other.
6. Then make fifty clasps of gold and join the two sets of sheets, so that the tabernacle forms one whole.
7. Also make sheets woven of goat hair for a tent over the tabernacle. Make eleven such sheets;
8. the length of each shall be thirty cubits, and the width four cubits: all eleven sheets shall be of the same size.
9. Join five of the sheets into one set, and the other six sheets into another set. Use the sixth sheet double at the front of the tent.
10. Make fifty loops along the edge of the end sheet in one set, and fifty loops along the edge of the end sheet in the second set.
11. Also make fifty bronze clasps and put them into the loops, to join the tent into one whole.
12. There will be an extra half sheet of tent covering, which shall be allowed to hang down over the rear of the tabernacle.
