造燔祭壇的條例
27 「要用皂莢木造一個四方形的祭壇，長寬各二點三米，高一點三米。 2 要在壇的四角造四個角狀物，與壇連成一體，壇外面要包上銅。 3 用銅造盛壇灰的盆和其他祭壇用具，即鏟、碗、肉叉、火鼎。 4 要造一個銅網，在銅網的四角裝置四個銅環。 5 銅網在祭壇圍邊的下方，向下伸展到祭壇的腰部。 6 要用皂莢木為祭壇造兩根橫杠，外面包上銅。 7 要將兩根橫杠穿在祭壇兩旁的銅環裡，以便抬祭壇。 8 整座壇都用木板製成，壇是中空的。一切都要照我在山上給你的指示去做。

9 「要為聖幕圍出一個院子。院子的南面要用細麻線做帷幔，長四十六米， 10 帷幔有二十根柱子，二十個帶凹槽的銅底座，柱子上的鉤子和橫杆都是銀的。 11 北面的帷幔也是長四十六米，柱子、銅底座、鉤子、橫杆的樣式都與南面的一樣。 12 院子西面的帷幔寬二十三米，有十根柱子和十個帶凹槽的底座。 13 院子東面的帷幔也是寬二十三米。 14-15 入口兩邊的帷幔都是寬六點九米，各有三根柱子和三個帶凹槽的底座。 16 院子的入口要有門簾，長九米，用細麻線和藍色、紫色、朱紅色的線織成，上面有精緻的刺繡，還有四根柱子和四個帶凹槽的底座。 17 所有繞著院子的柱子都要用銀製的橫杆連接，所有的鉤子都要用銀製作，帶凹槽的底座要用銅製作。 18 整個院子長四十四米，寬二十二米，高二點三米，所有的帷幔都要用細麻線精工製作，帶凹槽的底座要用銅製作。 19 聖幕裡其他一切器具以及聖幕、院子所用的橛子都要用銅製作。
20 「你要吩咐以色列百姓，把榨出的純橄欖油拿來做會幕內的燈油，使燈臺上的燈經常亮著。 21 亞倫和他的子孫要負責照看聖所內約櫃前的幔子外的燈，使燈在耶和華面前日夜亮著。這是以色列百姓世世代代當守的條例。

13 In that breadth of the large porch, that beholdeth to the east, shall be fifty cubits, (And the breadth of the courtyard, facing east, shall be fifty cubits,)
14 in which the curtains of fifteen cubits shall be assigned to one side, and three pillars, and so many bases; (and on one side of the entrance there shall be curtains fifteen cubits long, with three pillars, and as many bases;)
15 and in the other side shall be curtains holding fifteen cubits, and three pillars, and so many bases. (and on the other side of the entrance, there shall also be curtains fifteen cubits long, with three pillars, and as many bases.)
16 Forsooth in the large entry of the porch shall be made a curtain of twenty cubits, of jacinth, and purple, and of red silk twice-dyed, and of bis folded again, by embroidery work; it shall have four pillars, with so many bases. (And at the entrance to the courtyard shall be a curtain twenty cubits long, made out of jacinth, and purple, and red silk twice-dyed, and finely woven linen, and embroidered; it shall be hung on four pillars, with as many bases.)
17 All the pillars of the great porch by compass shall be clothed with plates of silver, with hooks of silver, and with bases of brass. (All the pillars around the courtyard shall have silver bands, silver hooks, and bronze bases.)
18 The great porch shall occupy an hundred cubits in length, fifty in breadth; the height of the curtains shall be of five cubits; and it shall be made of bis folded again; and it shall have brazen bases. (The courtyard shall be a hundred cubits in length, fifty cubits in breadth, and five cubits in height; the curtains shall be made out of finely woven linen, and the bases made out of bronze.)
19 Thou shalt make of brass all the vessels of the tabernacle, into all uses and ceremonies, as well (as) the stakes thereof, as (also those) of the great entry. (Thou shalt make out of bronze all the vessels for use in all the ceremonies in the Tabernacle, as well as its pegs, and the pegs for the courtyard.)
20 Command thou also to the sons of Israel, that they bring to thee the cleanest oil of olive trees, and pounded with a pestle, that a lantern burn ever[more] (And command to the Israelites, that they bring thee the purest olive oil, yea, pounded with a pestle, so that the lantern shall burn forevermore)
21 in the tabernacle of witnessing without the veil, which is hanged in the tabernacle of witnessing; and Aaron and his sons shall set it, that it shine before the Lord (from eventide) till (to) the morrowtide; it shall be everlasting worshipping by their successions, or after-comings, of the sons of Israel. (in the Tabernacle of the Witnessing, outside the Veil which is hung in front of the Witnessing; and Aaron and his sons shall set it, so that it will shine before the Lord from the evening until the morning; this is an everlasting command for their successors, or after-comers, among the Israelites.)

GOD’S WORD Translation
The Altar(A)
27 ⌞The Lord continued,⌟ “Make an altar out of acacia wood. It should be 7½ feet square, and 4½ feet high. 2 Make a horn at each of its four corners. The four horns and the altar must be made out of one piece ⌞of wood⌟ covered with bronze.
3 “Make all the utensils for it out of bronze: pots for taking away the altar’s ashes, also shovels, bowls, forks, and incense burners.

6 “Make poles out of acacia wood for the altar, and cover them with bronze. 7 The poles should be put through the rings on both sides of the altar to carry it.

The Courtyard(B)
9 “Make a courtyard for the tent. The south side of the courtyard should be 150 feet long and have curtains made out of fine linen yarn, 10 ⌞hung⌟ on 20 posts ⌞set in⌟ 20 bronze bases.

This is a permanent law among the Israelites for generations to come.”
