Exodus 26:17-33 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

17. In the sides of the boards shall be made two mortises, whereby one board may be joined to another board: and after this manner shall all the boards be prepared.

18. Of which twenty shall be in the south side southward.

19. For which thou shalt cast forty sockets of silver, that under every board may be put two sockets at the two corners.

20. In the second side also the tabernacle that looketh to the north, there shall be twenty boards,

21. Having forty sockets of silver, two sockets shall be put under each board.

22. But on the west side of the tabernacle thou shalt make six boards.

23. And again other two which shall be erected in the corners at the back of the tabernacle.

24. And they shall be joined together from beneath unto the top, and one joint shall hold them all. The like joining shall be observed for the two boards also that are to be put in the corners.

25. And they shall be in all eight boards, and their silver sockets sixteen, reckoning two sockets for each board.

26. Thou shalt make also five bars of setim wood, to hold together the boards on one side of the tabernacle.

27. And five others on the other side, and as many at the west side:

28. And they shall be put along by the midst of the boards from one end to the other.

29. The boards also themselves thou shalt overlay with gold, and shall cast rings of gold to be set upon them, for places for the bars to hold together boardwork: which bars thou shalt cover with plates of gold.

30. And thou shalt rear up the tabernacle according to the pattern that was shewn thee in the mount.

31. Thou shalt make also a veil of violet and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, and fine twisted linen, wrought with embroidered work, and goodly variety:

32. And thou shalt hang it up before four pillars of setim wood, which themselves also shall be overlaid with gold, and shall have heads of gold, but sockets of silver.

33. And the veils shall be hanged on with rings, and within it thou shalt put the ark of the testimony, and the sanctuary, and the holy of holies shall be divided with it.
