Exodus 38:1-11 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

1. He made also the altar of holocaust of setim wood, five cubits square, and three in height:

2. The horns whereof went out from the corners, and he overlaid it with plates of brass.

3. And for the uses thereof, he prepared divers vessels of brass, cauldrons, tongs, fleshhooks, pothooks, and firepans.

4. And he made the grate thereof of brass, in manner of a net, and under it in the midst of the altar a hearth,

5. Casting four rings at the four ends of the net at the top, to put in bars to carry it.

6. And he made the bars of setim wood, and overlaid them with plates of brass:

7. And he drew them through the rings that stood out in the sides of the altar. And the altar itself was not solid, but hollow, of boards, and empty within.

8. He made also the laver of brass, with the foot thereof, of the mirrors of the women that watch at the door of the tabernacle.

9. He made also the court, in the south side whereof were hangings of fine twisted linen, of a hundred cubits,

10. Twenty pillars of brass with their sockets, the heads of the pillars, and the whole graving of the work, of silver.

11. In like manner at the north side the hangings, the pillars, and the sockets and heads of the pillars were of the same measure, and work and metal.
