Exodus 38:1-7

International Standard Version

The Altar for Burnt Offerings

38 Then he made the altar for burnt offerings of acacia wood. It was a square, five cubits^[a] long and five cubits^[b] wide, and it was three cubits^[c] high. ² He made horns^[d] on its four corners. Its horns were of one piece with it, and he overlaid it with bronze. ³ He made all the utensils for the altar—the pans, the shovels, the bowls, the forks, and the fire-pans—and he made all its utensils of bronze. ⁴ He made a lattice, a netting of bronze, for the altar. It was under its ledge, extending halfway up. ⁵ He cast four rings on the four ends of the bronze lattice as holders for the poles. ⁶ He made poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze. ⁷ And he put the poles through rings on the sides of the altar to carry it.^[e] He made it hollow, out of boards.
