The Altar
27 “Make the altar of acacia wood. It will be as long and as wide as three steps, and as tall as a man’s chest. 2 Make horns for it on its four corners. They will be of one piece and covered with brass. 3 Make its pails for taking away its ashes, its tools for picking up the ashes, its pots, meat-hooks and fire-holders. Make all of these out of brass. 4 Make a net for it out of brass, with four rings of brass at its four corners. 5 Put it under the altar so that the net comes up to the center of the altar. 6 Make long, straight pieces of acacia wood for the altar. And cover them with brass. 7 Put the long pieces of wood through the rings on each side of the altar when it is carried. 8 Make the altar with pieces of wood so it is empty inside. Make it as it was shown to you on the mountain.
The Open Spaces
9 “Make the open space of the meeting tent. On the south side there will be curtains for the open space. Make them of fine linen, as long as fifty long steps. 10 They will hang from twenty pillars which are put on twenty bases of brass. The hooks of the pillars and their rings will be made of silver. 11 Do the same for the north side. There will be curtains as long as fifty long steps, and twenty pillars with twenty bases of brass. The hooks of the pillars and their rings will be made of silver. 12 On the west side of the open space there will be curtains as long as twenty-five long steps. They will have ten pillars with ten bases. 13 And the east side of the open space will be as wide as twenty-five long steps.
14 “The curtains for one side of the gate will be as long as seven steps. They will have three pillars with three bases. 15 On the other side there will be curtains as long as seven steps, with three pillars and three bases. 16 Have an able workman make a curtain out of fine linen for the gate of the open space. It will be blue, purple and red, and as long as ten long steps. It will have four pillars with four bases. 17 All the pillars around the open space will have silver hooks, silver rings, and their bases of brass. 18 The open space will be as long as fifty long steps, as wide as twenty-five long steps, and as high as a man raises his hand. It will have curtains of fine linen and the bases will be brass. 19 All the tools used in the meeting tent, all its nails, and all the nails for the open space will be made of brass.
Care of the Lamp-Stand
20 “Tell the people of Israel to bring you clear oil of beaten olives for the light, so a lamp may burn all the time. 21 In the meeting tent, outside the curtain which is in front of the Law, Aaron and his sons will take care of it from evening until morning before the Lord. It will be a law forever for the people of Israel.

The Altar of Burnt Offering(A)
27 “Build an altar(B) of acacia wood, three cubits[a] high; it is to be square, five cubits long and five cubits wide.[b] 2 Make a horn(C) at each of the four corners, so that the horns and the altar are of one piece, and overlay the altar with bronze. 3 Make all its utensils of bronze—its pots to remove the ashes, and its shovels, sprinkling bowls,(D) meat forks and firepans.(E) 4 Make a grating for it, a bronze network, and make a bronze ring at each of the four corners of the network. 5 Put it under the ledge of the altar so that it is halfway up the altar. 6 Make poles of acacia wood for the altar and overlay them with bronze.(F) 7 The poles are to be inserted into the rings so they will be on two sides of the altar when it is carried.(G) 8 Make the altar hollow, out of boards. It is to be made just as you were shown(H) on the mountain.
The Courtyard(I)
9 “Make a courtyard(J) for the tabernacle. The south side shall be a hundred cubits[c] long and is to have curtains of finely twisted linen, 10 with twenty posts and twenty bronze bases and with silver hooks and bands on the posts. 11 The north side shall also be a hundred cubits long and is to have curtains, with twenty posts and twenty bronze bases and with silver hooks and bands on the posts.

16 “For the entrance to the courtyard, provide a curtain(K) twenty cubits[f] long, of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen—the work of an embroiderer(L)—with four posts and four bases. 17 All the posts around the courtyard are to have silver bands and hooks, and bronze bases. 18 The courtyard shall be a hundred cubits long and fifty cubits wide,[g] with curtains of finely twisted linen five cubits[h] high, and with bronze bases. 19 All the other articles used in the service of the tabernacle, whatever their function, including all the tent pegs for it and those for the courtyard, are to be of bronze.
Oil for the Lampstand(M)
20 “Command the Israelites to bring you clear oil(N) of pressed olives for the light so that the lamps may be kept burning. 21 In the tent of meeting,(O) outside the curtain that shields the ark of the covenant law,(P) Aaron and his sons are to keep the lamps(Q) burning before the Lord from evening till morning. This is to be a lasting ordinance(R) among the Israelites for the generations to come.

27 HARÁS también altar de madera de Sittim de cinco codos de longitud, y de cinco codos de anchura: será cuadrado el altar, y su altura de tres codos.
2 Y harás sus cuernos á sus cuatro esquinas; los cuernos serán de lo mismo; y lo cubrirás de metal.
3 Harás también sus calderas para echar su ceniza; y sus paletas, y sus tazones, y sus garfios, y sus braseros: harás todos sus vasos de metal.
4 Y le harás un enrejado de metal de obra de malla; y sobre el enrejado harás cuatro anillos de metal á sus cuatro esquinas.
5 Y lo has de poner dentro del cerco del altar abajo; y llegará el enrejado hasta el medio del altar.
6 Harás también varas para el altar, varas de madera de Sittim, las cuales cubrirás de metal.
7 Y sus varas se meterán por los anillos: y estarán aquellas varas á ambos lados del altar, cuando hubiere de ser llevado.
8 De tablas lo harás, hueco: de la manera que te fué mostrado en el monte, así lo harás.
9 Asimismo harás el atrio del tabernáculo: al lado del mediodía, al austro, tendrá el atrio cortinas de lino torcido, de cien codos de longitud cada un lado;
10 Sus veinte columnas, y sus veinte basas serán de metal; los capiteles de las columnas y sus molduras, de plata.
11 Y de la misma manera al lado del aquilón habrá á lo largo cortinas de cien codos de longitud, y sus veinte columnas, con sus veinte basas de metal; los capiteles de sus columnas y sus molduras, de plata.
12 Y el ancho del atrio del lado occidental tendrá cortinas de cincuenta codos; sus columnas diez, con sus diez basas.
13 Y en el ancho del atrio por la parte de levante, al oriente, habrá cincuenta codos.
14 Y las cortinas del un lado serán de quince codos; sus columnas tres, con sus tres basas.
15 Al otro lado quince codos de cortinas; sus columnas tres, con sus tres basas.
16 Y á la puerta del atrio habrá un pabellón de veinte codos, de cárdeno, y púrpura, y carmesí, y lino torcido, de obra de bordador: sus columnas cuatro, con sus cuatro basas.
17 Todas las columnas del atrio en derredor serán ceñidas de plata; sus capiteles de plata, y sus basas de metal.
18 La longitud del atrio será de cien codos, y la anchura cincuenta por un lado y cincuenta por el otro, y la altura de cinco codos: sus cortinas de lino torcido, y sus basas de metal.
19 Todos los vasos del tabernáculo en todo su servicio, y todos sus clavos, y todos los clavos del atrio, serán de metal.
20 Y tú mandarás á los hijos de Israel que te traigan aceite puro de olivas, molido, para la luminaria, para hacer arder continuamente las lámparas.
21 En el tabernáculo del testimonio, afuera del velo que está delante del testimonio, las pondrá en orden Aarón y sus hijos, delante de Jehová desde la tarde hasta la mañana, como estatuto perpetuo de los hijos de Israel por sus generaciones.

And you shall overlay it with bronze. 3 Also you shall make its pans to receive its ashes, and its shovels and its basins and its forks and its firepans; you shall make all its utensils of bronze. 4 You shall make a grate for it, a network of bronze; and on the network you shall make four bronze rings at its four corners. 5 You shall put it under the rim of the altar beneath, that the network may be midway up the altar. 6 And you shall make poles for the altar, poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with bronze. 7 The poles shall be put in the rings, and the poles shall be on the two sides of the altar to bear it. 8 You shall make it hollow with boards; (C)as it was shown you on the mountain, so shall they make it.

(K)It shall be a statute forever to their generations on behalf of the children of Israel.
