Exodus 26
New Life Version
The Meeting Tent
26 “Make the meeting tent with ten curtains of fine linen, blue and purple and red. Make them with cherubim sewed into them by an able workman. 2 Each curtain will be as long as fourteen long steps, and as wide as two long steps, all of them the same. 3 Five curtains will be joined to one another. And the other five curtains will be joined to one another. 4 Take small pieces of blue cloth, longer than they are wide. Sew both ends to the side of the last curtain in the first group. Then do the same on the side of the last curtain in the second group. 5 Put fifty of these pieces on the one curtain. And put fifty on the side of the other curtain, so that the pieces meet each other. 6 Make fifty hooks of gold and join the curtains together with the hooks so the meeting tent will be as one.
7 “Make curtains of goat hair for a covering over the meeting tent. Make eleven curtains in all. 8 Each curtain will be as long as fifteen long steps, and as wide as two long steps, all of them the same. 9 Join five curtains by themselves and six curtains by themselves. Lay the sixth curtain over the front of the meeting tent twice. 10 Take fifty small pieces of cloth, longer than they are wide. Sew both ends of each to the side of the last curtain in the first group. Then sew fifty pieces onto the side of the last curtain in the second group. 11 Make fifty hooks of brass. Put the hooks through the sewed pieces of cloth and join the tent together as one. 12 The part that is left of the tent’s curtains, the half curtain, will lie over the back of the meeting tent. 13 There will be parts of the tent’s curtains left over on each side, about a cubit. These will hang over each side of the meeting tent to cover it. 14 Make a covering for the tent of rams’ skins made red, and a covering over that of badgers’ skins.
15 “Then make the standing pieces of wood for the meeting tent out of acacia wood. 16 Each piece of wood will be as long as five long steps, and as wide as one step. 17 Make two joint-pieces in each piece of wood for joining them together. Do this for all the pieces of wood of the meeting tent. 18 Set up twenty pieces of wood for the south side of the meeting tent. 19 Make forty silver bases under the twenty pieces of wood, with two holes in each one for joining the two joint-pieces on each piece of wood. 20 Cut twenty pieces of wood for the north side of the meeting tent. 21 And make forty silver bases, two under each piece of wood. 22 Then cut six pieces of wood for the back or west side of the meeting tent. 23 Cut two pieces of wood for the back corners. 24 They will be apart at the bottom, and joined at the top with one ring. They will both be made the same and will make the two corners. 25 There will be eight special pieces of wood and their silver bases with sixteen holes, two holes under each piece of wood.
26 “Then make cross-pieces of acacia wood, five for the pieces of wood on one side of the meeting tent, 27 and five for the pieces of wood on the other side of the meeting tent. Then make five for the pieces of wood at the back of the meeting tent to the west side. 28 The long, cross-piece for the center of the standing pieces of wood will go through from end to end. 29 Cover the standing pieces of wood with gold. Make rings of gold to hold the cross-pieces and cover these pieces with gold. 30 Build the meeting tent by following the plan for it that was shown to you on the mountain.
31 “Make a curtain of blue and purple and red cloth and fine linen. It will be made with cherubim sewed into it by an able workman. 32 Hang it on four strong pillars of acacia wood covered with gold. Their hooks will be made of gold also. And the pillars will stand on four silver bases. 33 Hang the top of the curtain from the hooks. Then bring the box of the Law within the curtain. This curtain will divide the holy place from the Holiest Place of All. 34 Put the mercy-seat on the box of the Law in the Holiest Place of All. 35 Set the table outside the curtain. Put the lamp-stand on the south side of the meeting tent. And put the table on the north side.
36 “Make another curtain of fine linen for the door of the tent. It will be made of blue and purple and red cloth by an able workman. 37 Hang it on five pillars of acacia wood covered with gold. Make their hooks of gold. And make five brass bases for them.

26 Y HARÁS el tabernáculo de diez cortinas de lino torcido, cárdeno, y púrpura, y carmesí: y harás querubines de obra delicada.
2 La longitud de la una cortina de veintiocho codos, y la anchura de la misma cortina de cuatro codos: todas las cortinas tendrán una medida.
3 Cinco cortinas estarán juntas la una con la otra, y cinco cortinas unidas la una con la otra.
4 Y harás lazadas de cárdeno en la orilla de la una cortina, en el borde, en la juntura: y así harás en la orilla de la postrera cortina en la juntura segunda.
5 Cincuenta lazadas harás en la una cortina, y cincuenta lazadas harás en el borde de la cortina que está en la segunda juntura: las lazadas estarán contrapuestas la una á la otra.
6 Harás también cincuenta corchetes de oro, con los cuales juntarás las cortinas la una con la otra, y se formará un tabernáculo.
7 Harás asimismo cortinas de pelo de cabras para una cubierta sobre el tabernáculo; once cortinas harás.
8 La longitud de la una cortina será de treinta codos, y la anchura de la misma cortina de cuatro codos: una medida tendrán las once cortinas.
9 Y juntarás las cinco cortinas aparte y las otras seis cortinas separadamente; y doblarás la sexta cortina delante de la faz del tabernáculo.
10 Y harás cincuenta lazadas en la orilla de la una cortina, al borde en la juntura, y cincuenta lazadas en la orilla de la segunda cortina en la otra juntura.
11 Harás asimismo cincuenta corchetes de alambre, los cuales meterás por las lazadas: y juntarás la tienda, para que se haga una sola cubierta.
12 Y el sobrante que resulta en las cortinas de la tienda, la mitad de la una cortina que sobra, quedará á las espaldas del tabernáculo.
13 Y un codo de la una parte, y otro codo de la otra que sobra en la longitud de las cortinas de la tienda, cargará sobre los lados del tabernáculo de la una parte y de la otra, para cubrirlo.
14 Harás también á la tienda una cubierta de cueros de carneros, teñidos de rojo, y una cubierta de cueros de tejones encima.
15 Y harás para el tabernáculo tablas de madera de Sittim, que estén derechas.
16 La longitud de cada tabla será de diez codos, y de codo y medio la anchura de cada tabla.
17 Dos quicios tendrá cada tabla, trabadas la una con la otra; así harás todas las tablas del tabernáculo.
18 Harás, pues, las tablas del tabernáculo: veinte tablas al lado del mediodía, al austro.
19 Y harás cuarenta basas de plata debajo de las veinte tablas; dos basas debajo de la una tabla para sus dos quicios, y dos basas debajo de la otra tabla para sus dos quicios.
20 Y al otro lado del tabernáculo, á la parte del aquilón, veinte tablas;
21 Y sus cuarenta basas de plata: dos basas debajo de la una tabla, y dos basas debajo de la otra tabla.
22 Y para el lado del tabernáculo, al occidente, harás seis tablas.
23 Harás además dos tablas para las esquinas del tabernáculo en los dos ángulos posteriores;
24 Las cuales se unirán por abajo, y asimismo se juntarán por su alto á un gozne: así será de las otras dos que estarán á las dos esquinas.
25 De suerte que serán ocho tablas, con sus basas de plata, diez y seis basas; dos basas debajo de la una tabla, y dos basas debajo de la otra tabla.
26 Harás también cinco barras de madera de Sittim, para las tablas del un lado del tabernáculo,
27 Y cinco barras para las tablas del otro lado del tabernáculo, y cinco barras para el otro lado del tabernáculo, que está al occidente.
28 Y la barra del medio pasará por medio de las tablas, del un cabo al otro.
29 Y cubrirás las tablas de oro, y harás sus anillos de oro para meter por ellos las barras: también cubrirás las barras de oro.
30 Y alzarás el tabernáculo conforme á su traza que te fué mostrada en el monte.
31 Y harás también un velo de cárdeno, y púrpura, y carmesí, y de lino torcido: será hecho de primorosa labor, con querubines:
32 Y has de ponerlo sobre cuatro columnas de madera de Sittim cubiertas de oro; sus capiteles de oro, sobre basas de plata.
33 Y pondrás el velo debajo de los corchetes, y meterás allí, del velo adentro, el arca del testimonio; y aquel velo os hará separación entre el lugar santo y el santísimo.
34 Y pondrás la cubierta sobre el arca del testimonio en el lugar santísimo.
35 Y pondrás la mesa fuera del velo, y el candelero enfrente de la mesa al lado del tabernáculo al mediodía; y pondrás la mesa al lado del aquilón.
36 Y harás á la puerta del tabernáculo una cortina de cárdeno, y púrpura, y carmesí, y lino torcido, obra de bordador.
37 Y harás para la cortina cinco columnas de madera de Sittim, las cuales cubrirás de oro, con sus capiteles de oro: y hacerlas has de fundición cinco basas de metal.
Exodus 26
New King James Version
The Tabernacle(A)
26 “Moreover (B)you shall make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine woven linen and blue, purple, and scarlet thread; with artistic designs of cherubim you shall weave them. 2 The length of each curtain shall be twenty-eight cubits, and the width of each curtain four cubits. And every one of the curtains shall have [a]the same measurements. 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 yarn on the edge of the curtain on the selvedge of one set, and likewise you shall do on the outer edge of the other curtain of the second set. 5 Fifty loops you shall make in the one curtain, and fifty loops you shall make on the edge of the curtain that is on the end of the second set, that the loops may be clasped to one another. 6 And you shall make fifty clasps of gold, and couple the curtains together with the clasps, so that it may be one tabernacle.
7 (C)“You shall also make curtains of goats’ hair, to be a tent over the tabernacle. You shall make eleven curtains. 8 The length of each curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the width of each curtain four cubits; and the eleven curtains shall all have the same measurements. 9 And you shall couple five curtains by themselves and six curtains by themselves, and you shall double over the sixth curtain at the forefront 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 of the second set. 11 And you shall make fifty bronze clasps, put the clasps into the loops, and couple the tent together, that it may be one. 12 The remnant that remains of the curtains of the tent, the half curtain that remains, shall hang over the back of the tabernacle. 13 And a cubit on one side and a cubit on the other side, of what remains of the length of the curtains of the tent, shall hang over the sides of the tabernacle, on this side and on that side, to cover it.
14 (D)“You shall also make a covering of ram skins dyed red for the tent, and a covering of badger skins above that.
15 “And for the tabernacle you shall (E)make the boards of acacia wood, standing upright. 16 Ten cubits shall be the length of a board, and a cubit and a half shall be the width of each board. 17 Two [b]tenons shall be in each board for binding one to another. Thus you shall make for all the boards of the tabernacle. 18 And you shall make the boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards for the south side. 19 You shall make forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards: two sockets under each of the boards for its two tenons. 20 And for the second side of the tabernacle, the north side, there shall be twenty boards 21 and their forty sockets of silver: two sockets under each of the boards. 22 For the far side of the tabernacle, westward, you shall make six boards. 23 And you shall also make two boards for the two back corners of the tabernacle. 24 They shall be [c]coupled together at the bottom and they shall be coupled together at the top by one ring. Thus it shall be for both of them. They shall be for the two corners. 25 So there shall be eight boards with their sockets of silver—sixteen sockets—two sockets under each of the boards.
26 “And you shall make bars of acacia wood: five for the boards on one side of the tabernacle, 27 five bars for the boards on the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the side of the tabernacle, for the far side westward. 28 The (F)middle bar shall pass through the midst of the boards from end to end. 29 You shall overlay the boards with gold, make their rings of gold as holders for the bars, and overlay the bars with gold. 30 And you shall raise up the tabernacle (G)according to its pattern which you were shown on the mountain.
31 (H)“You shall make a veil woven of blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and fine woven linen. It shall be woven with an artistic design of cherubim. 32 You shall hang it upon the four pillars of acacia wood overlaid with gold. Their hooks shall be gold, upon four sockets of silver. 33 And you shall hang the veil from the clasps. Then you shall bring (I)the ark of the Testimony in there, behind the veil. The veil shall be a divider for you between (J)the holy place and the Most Holy. 34 (K)You shall put the mercy seat upon the ark of the Testimony in the Most Holy. 35 (L)You shall set the table outside the veil, and (M)the lampstand across from the table on the side of the tabernacle toward the south; and you shall put the table on the north side.
36 (N)“You shall make a screen for the door of the tabernacle, woven of blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and fine woven linen, made by a weaver. 37 And you shall make for the screen (O)five pillars of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold; their hooks shall be gold, and you shall cast five sockets of bronze for them.
