5. And they spake unto Moses, saying, The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work which Jehovah commanded to make.
6. And Moses gave commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman make any more work for the offering of the sanctuary. So the people were restrained from bringing.
7. For the stuff they had was sufficient for all the work to make it, and too much.
8. And all the wise-hearted men among them that wrought the work made the tabernacle with ten curtains; of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, with cherubim, the work of the skilful workman, Bezalel made them.
9. The length of each curtain was eight and twenty cubits, and the breadth of each curtain four cubits: all the curtains had one measure.
10. And he coupled five curtains one to another: and the other five curtains he coupled one to another.
11. And he made loops of blue upon the edge of the one curtain from the selvedge in the coupling: likewise he made in the edge of the curtain that was outmost in the second coupling.
12. Fifty loops made he in the one curtain, and fifty loops made he in the edge of the curtain that was in the second coupling: the loops were opposite one to another.
13. And he made fifty clasps of gold, and coupled the curtains one to another with the clasps: so the tabernacle was one.
14. And he made curtains of goats’ hair for a tent over the tabernacle: eleven curtains he made them.
15. The length of each curtain was thirty cubits, and four cubits the breadth of each curtain: the eleven curtains had one measure.
16. And he coupled five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves.
17. And he made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that was outmost in the coupling, and fifty loops made he upon the edge of the curtain which was outmost in the second coupling.
