Exodus 36:8-19
1599 Geneva Bible
8 (A)All the cunning men therefore among the workmen, made for the Tabernacle ten curtains of fine twined linen, and of blue silk, and purple, and scarlet: [a]Cherubims of broidered work made they upon them.
9 The length of one curtain was twenty and eight cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: and the curtains were all of one size.
10 And he coupled five curtains together, and another five coupled he together.
11 And he made strings of blue silk by the edge of one curtain, in the selvedge of the coupling: likewise he made on the side of the other curtain in the selvedge in the second coupling.
12 (B)Fifty strings made he in the one curtain, and fifty strings made he in the edge of the other curtain, which was in the second coupling: the strings were set one against another.
13 After, he made fifty [b]taches of gold, and coupled the curtains one to another with the taches: so was it one Tabernacle.
14 ¶ Also he made curtains of goats’ hair for the [c]covering upon the Tabernacle: he made them to the number of eleven curtains.
15 The length of one curtain had thirty cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: the eleven curtains were of one size.
16 And he coupled five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves.
17 Also he made fifty strings upon the edge of one curtain in the selvedge in the coupling, and fifty strings made he upon the edge of the other curtain in the second coupling.
18 He made also fifty taches of brass to couple the covering that it might be one.
19 And he made a [d]covering upon the pavilion of rams’ skins dyed red, and a covering of badgers’ skins above.
