Exodus 26
King James Version

26 Moreover thou shalt make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet: with cherubims of cunning work shalt thou make them.

2 The length of one curtain shall be eight and twenty cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: and every one of the curtains shall have one measure.

3 The five curtains shall be coupled together one to another; and other five curtains shall be coupled one to another.

4 And thou shalt make loops of blue upon the edge of the one curtain from the selvedge in the coupling; and likewise shalt thou make in the uttermost edge of another curtain, in the coupling of the second.

5 Fifty loops shalt thou make in the one curtain, and fifty loops shalt thou make in the edge of the curtain that is in the coupling of the second; that the loops may take hold one of another.

6 And thou shalt make fifty taches of gold, and couple the curtains together with the taches: and it shall be one tabernacle.

7 And thou shalt make curtains of goats' hair to be a covering upon the tabernacle: eleven curtains shalt thou make.

8 The length of one curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: and the eleven curtains shall be all of one measure.

9 And thou shalt couple five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves, and shalt double the sixth curtain in the forefront of the tabernacle.

10 And thou shalt make fifty loops on the edge of the one curtain that is outmost in the coupling, and fifty loops in the edge of the curtain which coupleth the second.

11 And thou shalt make fifty taches of brass, and put the taches into the loops, and couple the tent together, that it may be one.

12 And the remnant that remaineth of the curtains of the tent, the half curtain that remaineth, shall hang over the backside of the tabernacle.

13 And a cubit on the one side, and a cubit on the other side of that which remaineth in the length of the curtains of the tent, it shall hang over the sides of the tabernacle on this side and on that side, to cover it.

14 And thou shalt make a covering for the tent of rams' skins dyed red, and a covering above of badgers' skins.

15 And thou shalt make boards for the tabernacle of shittim wood standing up.

16 Ten cubits shall be the length of a board, and a cubit and a half shall be the breadth of one board.

17 Two tenons shall there be in one board, set in order one against another: thus shalt thou make for all the boards of the tabernacle.

18 And thou shalt make the boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards on the south side southward.

19 And thou shalt make forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards; two sockets under one board for his two tenons, and two sockets under another board for his two tenons.

20 And for the second side of the tabernacle on the north side there shall be twenty boards:

21 And their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.

22 And for the sides of the tabernacle westward thou shalt make six boards.

23 And two boards shalt thou make for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides.

24 And they shall be coupled together beneath, and they shall be coupled together above the head of it unto one ring: thus shall it be for them both; they shall be for the two corners.

25 And they shall be eight boards, and their sockets of silver, sixteen sockets; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.

26 And thou shalt make bars of shittim wood; five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,

27 And five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the side of the tabernacle, for the two sides westward.

28 And the middle bar in the midst of the boards shall reach from end to end.

29 And thou shalt overlay the boards with gold, and make their rings of gold for places for the bars: and thou shalt overlay the bars with gold.

30 And thou shalt rear up the tabernacle according to the fashion thereof which was shewed thee in the mount.

31 And thou shalt make a vail of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen of cunning work: with cherubims shall it be made:

32 And thou shalt hang it upon four pillars of shittim wood overlaid with gold: their hooks shall be of gold, upon the four sockets of silver.

33 And thou shalt hang up the vail under the taches, that thou mayest bring in thither within the vail the ark of the testimony: and the vail shall divide unto you between the holy place and the most holy.

34 And thou shalt put the mercy seat upon the ark of the testimony in the most holy place.

35 And thou shalt set the table without the vail, and the candlestick over against the table on the side of the tabernacle toward the south: and thou shalt put the table on the north side.

36 And thou shalt make an hanging for the door of the tent, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, wrought with needlework.

37 And thou shalt make for the hanging five pillars of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, and their hooks shall be of gold: and thou shalt cast five sockets of brass for them.

Construcción del tabernáculo

26 (A)Harás el tabernáculo[a] con diez cortinas de lino fino torcido, y tela azul[b], púrpura y escarlata; las harás con querubines, obra de hábil artífice. 2 La longitud de cada cortina será de veintiocho codos[c], y la anchura de cada cortina de cuatro codos; todas las cortinas tendrán una misma medida. 3 Cinco cortinas estarán unidas una con la otra; también las otras cinco cortinas estarán unidas una con la otra. 4 Y harás lazos de tela azul en el borde de la[d] cortina del extremo del primer enlace, y de la misma manera los harás en el borde de la cortina del extremo del segundo enlace. 5 Harás cincuenta lazos en la primera cortina, y harás cincuenta lazos en el borde[e] de la cortina que está en el segundo enlace; los lazos se corresponderán unos a otros. 6 Harás además cincuenta broches de oro, y con los broches unirás las cortinas una a la otra, de manera que el tabernáculo sea una unidad[f].

7 Harás también cortinas de pelo de cabra a manera de tienda sobre el tabernáculo; en total harás once cortinas(B). 8 La longitud de cada cortina será de treinta codos, y la anchura de cada cortina de cuatro codos, las once cortinas tendrán una misma medida. 9 Unirás cinco cortinas entre sí y las otras seis cortinas también entre sí, y doblarás la sexta cortina en el frente[g] de la tienda. 10 Harás cincuenta lazos en el borde de la[h] cortina del extremo del primer enlace, y cincuenta lazos en el borde de la cortina del extremo del segundo enlace. 11 Harás además cincuenta broches de bronce[i], y pondrás los broches en los lazos y unirás la tienda para que sea un todo[j]. 12 Y el exceso que sobra de las cortinas de la tienda, la media cortina que queda, caerá sobre la parte posterior del tabernáculo. 13 Y un codo en un lado y un codo en el otro lado de lo que sobra de la longitud de las cortinas de la tienda, caerá en los costados del tabernáculo, a un lado y a otro, para cubrirlo. 14 Harás también para la tienda una cubierta de pieles de carnero teñidas de[k] rojo, y otra cubierta de pieles de marsopa por encima(C).

15 (D)Harás luego para el tabernáculo tablas de madera de acacia, colocándolas verticalmente. 16 La longitud de cada[l] tabla será de diez codos, y de un codo y medio la anchura de cada tabla. 17 Cada tabla tendrá dos espigas para unirlas[m] una con otra; así harás con todas las tablas del tabernáculo. 18 Harás, pues, las tablas para el tabernáculo; veinte tablas para el lado sur[n]. 19 También harás cuarenta basas de plata(E) debajo de las veinte tablas: dos basas debajo de una tabla para sus dos espigas, y dos basas debajo de la otra tabla para sus dos espigas. 20 Y para el segundo lado del tabernáculo, al lado norte, veinte tablas, 21 y sus cuarenta basas de plata: dos basas debajo de una tabla y dos basas debajo de la otra tabla. 22 Y para la parte posterior[o] del tabernáculo, hacia el occidente, harás seis tablas. 23 Harás además dos tablas para las esquinas del tabernáculo en la parte posterior[p]. 24 Serán dobles por abajo, y estarán completamente unidas por arriba hasta la primera argolla; así será con las dos: formarán las dos esquinas. 25 Habrá ocho tablas con sus basas de plata, dieciséis basas; dos basas debajo de una tabla y dos basas debajo de la otra tabla.

26 Harás también barras de madera de acacia; cinco para las tablas de un lado del tabernáculo(F), 27 y cinco barras para las tablas del otro[q] lado del tabernáculo, y cinco barras para las tablas del lado posterior[r] del tabernáculo, hacia el occidente. 28 La barra del medio en el centro[s] de las tablas pasará de un extremo al otro. 29 Y revestirás de oro las tablas, y harás de oro sus argollas por donde pasarán[t] las barras; y revestirás de oro las barras. 30 Entonces levantarás el tabernáculo según el plan que te ha sido mostrado en el monte(G).

El velo

31 Harás además un velo de tela azul, púrpura y escarlata, y de lino fino torcido; será hecho con querubines, obra de hábil artífice(H). 32 Y lo colgarás[u] sobre cuatro columnas de acacia revestidas de oro; sus ganchos serán también de oro, sobre cuatro basas de plata. 33 Colgarás[v] el velo debajo de los broches, y pondrás allí, detrás[w] del velo, el arca del testimonio(I); y el velo os servirá como división entre[x] el lugar santo y el lugar santísimo(J). 34 Y pondrás el propiciatorio[y] sobre el arca del testimonio(K) en el lugar santísimo. 35 Y pondrás la mesa fuera del velo, y el candelabro enfrente de la mesa en el lado del tabernáculo hacia el sur(L); y pondrás la mesa en el lado norte(M).

36 Harás también una cortina para la entrada de la tienda de tela azul, púrpura y escarlata, y de lino fino torcido, obra de tejedor[z](N). 37 Y harás cinco columnas de acacia para la cortina, y las revestirás de oro, y sus ganchos serán también de oro; y fundirás cinco basas de bronce[aa] para ellas(O).

Exodus 26
English Standard Version

The Tabernacle

26 “Moreover, (A)you shall make the (B)tabernacle with ten curtains of (C)fine twined linen and blue and purple and scarlet yarns; you shall make them with cherubim (D)skillfully worked into them. 2 The length of each curtain shall be twenty-eight cubits,[a] and the breadth of each curtain four cubits; all the curtains shall be the same size. 3 Five curtains shall be coupled to one another, and the other five curtains shall be coupled to one another. 4 And you shall make loops of blue on the edge of the outermost curtain in the first set. Likewise you shall make loops on the edge of the outermost curtain in the second set. 5 Fifty loops you shall make on the one curtain, and fifty loops you shall make on the edge of the curtain that is in the second set; the loops shall be opposite one another. 6 And you shall make fifty clasps of gold, and couple the curtains one to the other with the clasps, so that the tabernacle may be a single whole.

7 “You shall also make (E)curtains of goats' hair for a tent over the tabernacle; eleven curtains shall you make. 8 The length of each curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the breadth of each curtain four cubits. The eleven curtains shall be the same size. 9 You shall couple five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves, and the sixth curtain you shall double over at the front of the tent. 10 You shall make fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that is outermost in one set, and fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that is outermost in the second set.

11 “You shall make fifty clasps of bronze, and put the clasps into the loops, and couple the tent together that it may be a single whole. 12 And the part that remains of the curtains of the tent, the half curtain that remains, shall hang over the back of the tabernacle. 13 And the extra that remains in the length of the curtains, the cubit on the one side, and the cubit on the other side, shall hang over the sides of the tabernacle, on this side and that side, to cover it. 14 (F)And you shall make for the tent a covering of tanned (G)rams' skins[b] and a covering of goatskins on top.

15 “You shall make upright frames for the tabernacle of acacia wood. 16 Ten cubits shall be the length of a frame, and a cubit and a half the breadth of each frame. 17 There shall be two tenons in each frame, for fitting together. So shall you do for all the frames of the tabernacle. 18 You shall make the frames for the tabernacle: twenty frames for the south side; 19 and forty bases of silver you shall make under the twenty frames, two bases under one frame for its two tenons, and two bases under the next frame for its two tenons; 20 and for the second side of the tabernacle, on the north side twenty frames, 21 and their forty bases of silver, two bases under one frame, and two bases under the next frame. 22 And for the rear of the tabernacle westward you shall make six frames. 23 And you shall make two frames for corners of the tabernacle in the rear; 24 they shall be separate beneath, but joined at the top, at the first ring. Thus shall it be with both of them; they shall form the two corners. 25 And there shall be eight frames, with their bases of silver, sixteen bases; two bases under one frame, and two bases under another frame.

26 “You shall make bars of acacia wood, five for the frames of the one side of the tabernacle, 27 and five bars for the frames of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the frames of the side of the tabernacle at the rear westward. 28 The middle bar, halfway up the frames, shall run from end to end. 29 You shall overlay the frames with gold and shall make their rings of gold for (H)holders for the bars, and you shall overlay the bars with gold. 30 Then you shall erect the tabernacle (I)according to the plan for it that you were shown on the mountain.

31 (J)“And you shall make a veil of blue and purple and scarlet yarns and (K)fine twined linen. It shall be made with cherubim (L)skillfully worked into it. 32 And you shall hang it on four pillars of acacia overlaid with gold, with hooks of gold, on four bases of silver. 33 And you shall hang (M)the veil from the clasps, and bring (N)the ark of the testimony in there within the veil. And the veil shall separate for you the Holy Place from the Most Holy. 34 (O)You shall put the mercy seat on the ark of the testimony in the Most Holy Place. 35 And (P)you shall set the table outside the veil, and the (Q)lampstand on the south side of the tabernacle opposite the table, and you shall put the table on the north side.

36 “You shall make a (R)screen for the entrance of the tent, of (S)blue and purple and scarlet yarns and (T)fine twined linen, embroidered with needlework. 37 And you shall make for the screen five pillars of acacia, and overlay them with gold. Their hooks shall be of gold, and you shall cast five bases of bronze for them.

Exodus 26
New International Version

The Tabernacle(A)

26 “Make the tabernacle(B) with ten curtains of finely twisted linen and blue, purple and scarlet yarn, with cherubim(C) woven into them by a skilled worker. 2 All the curtains are to be the same size(D)—twenty-eight cubits long and four cubits wide.[a] 3 Join five of the curtains together, and do the same with the other five. 4 Make loops of blue material along the edge of the end curtain in one set, and do the same with the end curtain in the other set. 5 Make fifty loops on one curtain and fifty loops on the end curtain of the other set, with the loops opposite each other. 6 Then make fifty gold clasps and use them to fasten the curtains together so that the tabernacle is a unit.(E)

7 “Make curtains of goat hair for the tent over the tabernacle—eleven altogether. 8 All eleven curtains are to be the same size(F)—thirty cubits long and four cubits wide.[b] 9 Join five of the curtains together into one set and the other six into another set. Fold the sixth curtain double at the front of the tent. 10 Make fifty loops along the edge of the end curtain in one set and also along the edge of the end curtain in the other set. 11 Then make fifty bronze clasps and put them in the loops to fasten the tent together as a unit.(G) 12 As for the additional length of the tent curtains, the half curtain that is left over is to hang down at the rear of the tabernacle. 13 The tent curtains will be a cubit[c] longer on both sides; what is left will hang over the sides of the tabernacle so as to cover it. 14 Make for the tent a covering(H) of ram skins dyed red, and over that a covering of the other durable leather.[d](I)

15 “Make upright frames of acacia wood for the tabernacle. 16 Each frame is to be ten cubits long and a cubit and a half wide,[e] 17 with two projections set parallel to each other. Make all the frames of the tabernacle in this way. 18 Make twenty frames for the south side of the tabernacle 19 and make forty silver bases(J) to go under them—two bases for each frame, one under each projection. 20 For the other side, the north side of the tabernacle, make twenty frames 21 and forty silver bases(K)—two under each frame. 22 Make six frames for the far end, that is, the west end of the tabernacle, 23 and make two frames for the corners at the far end. 24 At these two corners they must be double from the bottom all the way to the top and fitted into a single ring; both shall be like that. 25 So there will be eight frames and sixteen silver bases—two under each frame.

26 “Also make crossbars of acacia wood: five for the frames on one side of the tabernacle, 27 five for those on the other side, and five for the frames on the west, at the far end of the tabernacle. 28 The center crossbar is to extend from end to end at the middle of the frames. 29 Overlay the frames with gold and make gold rings to hold the crossbars. Also overlay the crossbars with gold.

30 “Set up the tabernacle(L) according to the plan(M) shown you on the mountain.

31 “Make a curtain(N) of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen, with cherubim(O) woven into it by a skilled worker. 32 Hang it with gold hooks on four posts of acacia wood overlaid with gold and standing on four silver bases.(P) 33 Hang the curtain from the clasps and place the ark of the covenant law behind the curtain.(Q) The curtain will separate the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place.(R) 34 Put the atonement cover(S) on the ark of the covenant law in the Most Holy Place. 35 Place the table(T) outside the curtain on the north side of the tabernacle and put the lampstand(U) opposite it on the south side.

36 “For the entrance to the tent make a curtain(V) of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen—the work of an embroiderer.(W) 37 Make gold hooks for this curtain and five posts of acacia wood overlaid with gold. And cast five bronze bases for them.
