O altar do holocausto

1 Farás também o altar de madeira de acácia; de cinco côvados será o seu comprimento, e de cinco, a largura (será quadrado o altar), e de três côvados, a altura. 2 Dos quatro cantos farás levantar-se quatro chifres, os quais formarão uma só peça com o altar; e o cobrirás de bronze. 3 Far-lhe-ás também recipientes para recolher a sua cinza, e pás, e bacias, e garfos, e braseiros; todos esses utensílios farás de bronze. 4 Far-lhe-ás também uma grelha de bronze em forma de rede, à qual farás quatro argolas de metal nos seus quatro cantos, 5 e as porás dentro do rebordo do altar para baixo, de maneira que a rede chegue até ao meio do altar. 6 Farás também varais para o altar, varais de madeira de acácia, e os cobrirás de bronze. 7 Os varais se meterão nas argolas, de um e de outro lado do altar, quando for levado. 8 Oco e de tábuas o farás; como se te mostrou no monte, assim o farão.

O átrio do tabernáculo

9 Farás também o átrio do tabernáculo; ao lado meridional (que dá para o sul), o átrio terá cortinas de linho fino retorcido; o comprimento de cada lado será de cem côvados. 10 Também as suas vinte colunas e as suas vinte bases serão de bronze; os ganchos das colunas e as suas vergas serão de prata. 11 De igual modo, para o lado norte ao comprido, haverá cortinas de cem côvados de comprimento; e as suas vinte colunas e as suas vinte bases serão de bronze; os ganchos das colunas e as suas vergas serão de prata. 12 Na largura do átrio para o lado do ocidente, haverá cortinas de cinquenta côvados; as colunas serão dez, e as suas bases, dez. 13 A largura do átrio do lado oriental (para o levante) será de cinquenta côvados. 14 As cortinas para um lado da entrada serão de quinze côvados; as suas colunas serão três, e as suas bases, três. 15 Para o outro lado da entrada, haverá cortinas de quinze côvados; as suas colunas serão três, e as suas bases, três. 16 À porta do átrio, haverá um reposteiro de vinte côvados, de estofo azul, e púrpura, e carmesim, e linho fino retorcido, obra de bordador; as suas colunas serão quatro, e as suas bases, quatro. 17 Todas as colunas ao redor do átrio serão cingidas de vergas de prata; os seus ganchos serão de prata, mas as suas bases, de bronze. 18 O átrio terá cem côvados de comprimento, e cinquenta de largura por todo o lado, e cinco de altura; as suas cortinas serão de linho fino retorcido, e as suas bases, de bronze. 19 Todos os utensílios do tabernáculo em todo o seu serviço, e todas as suas estacas, e todas as estacas do átrio serão de bronze.

O azeite para o candelabro

20 Ordenarás aos filhos de Israel que te tragam azeite puro de oliveira, batido, para o candelabro, para que haja lâmpada acesa continuamente. 21 Na tenda da congregação fora do véu, que está diante do Testemunho, Arão e seus filhos a conservarão em ordem, desde a tarde até pela manhã, perante o Senhor; estatuto perpétuo será este a favor dos filhos de Israel pelas suas gerações.

1 And thou shalt make the altar of acacia wood, five cubits long, and five cubits broad; the altar shall be foursquare: and the height thereof shall be three cubits. 2 And thou shalt make the horns of it upon the four corners thereof; the horns thereof shall be of one piece with it: and thou shalt overlay it with brass. 3 And thou shalt make its pots to take away its ashes, and its shovels, and its basins, and its flesh-hooks, and its firepans: all the vessels thereof thou shalt make of brass. 4 And thou shalt make for it a grating of network of brass: and upon the net shalt thou make four brazen rings in the four corners thereof. 5 And thou shalt put it under the ledge round the altar beneath, that the net may reach halfway up the altar. 6 And thou shalt make staves for the altar, staves of acacia wood, and overlay them with brass. 7 And the staves thereof shall be put into the rings, and the staves shall be upon the two sides of the altar, in bearing it. 8 Hollow with planks shalt thou make it: as it hath been showed thee in the mount, so shall they make it.

9 And thou shalt make the court of the tabernacle: for the south side southward there shall be hangings for the court of fine twined linen a hundred cubits long for one side: 10 and the pillars thereof shall be twenty, and their sockets twenty, of brass; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets shall be of silver. 11 And likewise for the north side in length there shall be hangings a hundred cubits long, and the pillars thereof twenty, and their sockets twenty, of brass; the hooks of the pillars, and their fillets, of silver. 12 And for the breadth of the court on the west side shall be hangings of fifty cubits; their pillars ten, and their sockets ten. 13 And the breadth of the court on the east side eastward shall be fifty cubits. 14 The hangings for the one side of the gate shall be fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three. 15 And for the other side shall be hangings of fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three. 16 And for the gate of the court shall be a screen of twenty cubits, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, the work of the embroiderer; their pillars four, and their sockets four. 17 All the pillars of the court round about shall be filleted with silver; their hooks of silver, and their sockets of brass. 18 The length of the court shall be a hundred cubits, and the breadth fifty every where, and the height five cubits, of fine twined linen, and their sockets of brass. 19 All the instruments of the tabernacle in all the service thereof, and all the pins thereof, and all the pins of the court, shall be of brass.

20 And thou shalt command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually. 21 In the tent of meeting, without the veil which is before the testimony, Aaron and his sons shall keep it in order from evening to morning before Jehovah: it shall be a statute for ever throughout their generations on the behalf of the children of Israel.

1 "Build an altar of acacia wood, three cubits "high; it is to be square, five cubits long and five cubits wide. [^2]

2 Make a horn at each of the four corners, so that the horns and the altar are of one piece, and overlay the altar with bronze.

3 Make all its utensils of bronze —its pots to remove the ashes, and its shovels, sprinkling bowls, meat forks and firepans.

4 Make a grating for it, a bronze network, and make a bronze ring at each of the four corners of the network.

5 Put it under the ledge of the altar so that it is halfway up the altar.

6 Make poles of acacia wood for the altar and overlay them with bronze.

7 The poles are to be inserted into the rings so they will be on two sides of the altar when it is carried.

8 Make the altar hollow, out of boards. It is to be made just as you were shown on the mountain.

9 "Make a courtyard for the tabernacle. The south side shall be a hundred cubits "long and is to have curtains of finely twisted linen,

10 with twenty posts and twenty bronze bases and with silver hooks and bands on the posts.

11 The north side shall also be a hundred cubits long and is to have curtains, with twenty posts and twenty bronze bases and with silver hooks and bands on the posts.

12 "The west end of the courtyard shall be fifty cubits "wide and have curtains, with ten posts and ten bases.

13 On the east end, toward the sunrise, the courtyard shall also be fifty cubits wide.

14 Curtains fifteen cubits "long are to be on one side of the entrance, with three posts and three bases,

15 and curtains fifteen cubits long are to be on the other side, with three posts and three bases.

16 "For the entrance to the courtyard, provide a curtain twenty cubits "long, of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen —the work of an embroiderer —with four posts and four bases.

17 All the posts around the courtyard are to have silver bands and hooks, and bronze bases.

18 The courtyard shall be a hundred cubits long and fifty cubits wide, "with curtains of finely twisted linen five cubits "high, and with bronze bases.

19 All the other articles used in the service of the tabernacle, whatever their function, including all the tent pegs for it and those for the courtyard, are to be of bronze.

20 "Command the Israelites to bring you clear oil of pressed olives for the light so that the lamps may be kept burning.

21 In the tent of meeting, outside the curtain that shields the ark of the covenant law, Aaron and his sons are to keep the lamps burning before the LORD from evening till morning. This is to be a lasting ordinance among the Israelites for the generations to come.
