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.

1 Facies et altare de lignis setim, quod habebit quinque cubitus in longitudine, et totidem in latitudine, id est, quadrum, et tres cubitos in altitudine. 2 Cornua autem per quatuor angulos ex ipso erunt : et operies illud re. 3 Faciesque in usus ejus lebetes ad suscipiendos cineres, et forcipes atque fuscinulas, et ignium receptacula ; omnia vasa ex re fabricabis. 4 Craticulamque in modum retis neam : per cujus quatuor angulos erunt quatuor annuli nei. 5 Quos pones subter arulam altaris : eritque craticula usque ad altaris medium. 6 Facies et vectes altaris de lignis setim duos, quos operies laminis neis : 7 et induces per circulos, eruntque ex utroque latere altaris ad portandum. 8 Non solidum, sed inane et cavum intrinsecus facies illud, sicut tibi in monte monstratum est.9 Facies et atrium tabernaculi, in cujus australi plaga contra meridiem erunt tentoria de bysso retorta : centum cubitos unum latus tenebit in longitudine. 10 Et columnas viginti cum basibus totidem neis, qu capita cum claturis suis habebunt argentea. 11 Similiter et in latere aquilonis per longum erunt tentoria centum cubitorum, column viginti, et bases ne ejusdem numeri, et capita earum cum claturis suis argentea. 12 In latitudine vero atrii, quod respicit ad occidentem, erunt tentoria per quinquaginta cubitos, et column decem, basesque totidem. 13 In ea quoque atrii latitudine, qu respicit ad orientem, quinquaginta cubiti erunt. 14 In quibus quindecim cubitorum tentoria lateri uno deputabuntur, columnque tres et bases totidem : 15 et in latere altero erunt tentoria cubitos obtinentia quindecim, column tres, et bases totidem. 16 In introitu vero atrii fiet tentorium cubitorum viginti ex hyacintho et purpura, coccoque bis tincto, et bysso retorta, opere plumarii : columnas habebit quatuor, cum basibus totidem. 17 Omnes column atrii per circuitum vestit erunt argenteis laminis, capitibus argenteis, et basibus neis. 18 In longitudine occupabit atrium cubitos centum, in latitudine quinquaginta, altitudo quinque cubitorum erit : fietque de bysso retorta, et habebit bases neas. 19 Cuncta vasa tabernaculi in omnes usus et cremonias, tam paxillos ejus quam atrii, ex re facies. 20 Prcipe filiis Isral ut afferant tibi oleum de arboribus olivarum purissimum, piloque contusum, ut ardeat lucerna semper 21 in tabernaculo testimonii, extra velum quod oppansum est testimonio. Et collocabunt eam Aaron et filii ejus, ut usque mane luceat coram Domino. Perpetuus erit cultus per successiones eorum a filiis Isral.
