Exodus 26:1-12 New King James Version (NKJV)

1. “Moreover you shall make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine woven linen and blue, purple, and scarlet thread; with artistic designs of cherubim you shall weave them.

2. The length of each curtain shall be twenty-eight cubits, and the width of each curtain four cubits. And every one of the curtains shall have the same measurements.

3. Five curtains shall be coupled to one another, and the other five curtains shall be coupled to one another.

4. And you shall make loops of blue yarn on the edge of the curtain on the selvedge of one set, and likewise you shall do on the outer edge of the other curtain of the second set.

5. Fifty loops you shall make in the one curtain, and fifty loops you shall make on the edge of the curtain that is on the end of the second set, that the loops may be clasped to one another.

6. And you shall make fifty clasps of gold, and couple the curtains together with the clasps, so that it may be one tabernacle.

7. “You shall also make curtains of goats’ hair, to be a tent over the tabernacle. You shall make eleven curtains.

8. The length of each curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the width of each curtain four cubits; and the eleven curtains shall all have the same measurements.

9. And you shall couple five curtains by themselves and six curtains by themselves, and you shall double over the sixth curtain at the forefront of the tent.

10. You shall make fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that is outermost in one set, and fifty loops on the edge of the curtain of the second set.

11. And you shall make fifty bronze clasps, put the clasps into the loops, and couple the tent together, that it may be one.

12. The remnant that remains of the curtains of the tent, the half curtain that remains, shall hang over the back of the tabernacle.
