Exodus 27
Lamsa Bible Par ▾ 
1AND you shall make an altar of shittim wood, five cubits long and five cubits broad; the altar shall be foursquare; and the height thereof three cubits. 2And you shall make the horns of it on the four corners thereof; its horns shall be of the same; and you shall overlay it with brass. 3And you shall make pots for the use thereof; and its cauldrons and its shovels and its fleshhooks and censers, all the vessels thereof you shall make of brass. 4You shall make for it a grating of network of brass; and upon the grating you shall make four rings of brass at its four corners. 5And you shall put it under the ledge of the altar, that the grate may reach to the midst of the altar. 6And you shall make poles for the altar, poles of shittim wood, and overlay them with brass. 7And the poles shall be put into the rings, and they shall be on both sides of the altar, when they carry it. 8Hollow with boards shall you make it; as I have shown you on the mountain, so shall they make it.

9And you shall make the court of the tabernacle; on the south side, there shall be hangings for the court of fine twined linen a hundred cubits long for one side; 10And the twenty pillars thereof and their twenty sockets shall be of brass; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets shall be of silver. 11And likewise for the north side there shall be hangings a hundred cubits long, and its twenty pillars and their twenty sockets shall be of brass; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets of silver. 12And for the breadth of the court on the west side there shall be hangings of fifty cubits, their pillars ten and their sockets ten. 13And the breadth of the court on the east side shall be fifty cubits. 14The hangings for one side of the gate shall be fifteen cubits, their pillars three and their sockets three. 15And on the other side shall be fifteen hangings, their pillars three and their sockets three. 16And for the gate of the court there shall be a hanging of twenty cubits of blue and purple and scarlet material and fine twined linen made of embroidered work; and their pillars shall be four and their sockets four. 17All the pillars round about the court shall be filleted with silver; their hooks shall be of silver and their sockets of brass. 18The length of the court shall be a hundred cubits, the breadth fifty everywhere, and the height five cubits of fine twined linen and their sockets of brass. 19All the vessels of the tabernacle in all the service thereof and all the pins thereof and all the tent-pins of the court shall be of brass.

20And you shall command the children of Israel that they bring you pure olive oil from beaten olives for the light, so that the lamps may burn always. 21In the tabernacle of the congregation outside the veil which is before the testimony, Aaron and his sons shall set them in order burning from evening to morning before the LORD; it shall be a statute for ever to your generations from the children of Israel.
