Exodus 26:6-23 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

6. Then make 50 gold rings to join the curtains together. This will join the Holy Tent together into one piece.

7. “Make another tent that will cover the Holy Tent. Use eleven curtains to make this tent. Make these curtains from goat hair.

8. All these curtains must be the same size. They must be 30 cubits long and 4 cubits wide.

9. Join five of the curtains together into one group. Then join the other six curtains together into another group. Fold back half of the sixth curtain at the front of the Tent.

10. Make 50 loops down the edge of the end curtain of one group. Do the same for the end curtain of the other group.

11. Then make 50 bronze rings to join the curtains together. This will join the tent together into one piece.

12. Half of the end curtain of this tent will hang down below the back edge of the Holy Tent.

13. On the sides, the curtains of this tent will hang down 1 cubit below the bottom edges of the Holy Tent. So this tent will completely cover the Holy Tent.

14. Make two coverings to go over the outer tent. One covering should be made from ram skins dyed red. The other covering should be made from fine leather.

15. “Use acacia wood to make frames to support the Holy Tent.

16. The frames should be 10 cubits high and 1 1/2 cubits wide.

17. Two side poles should be joined together with cross pieces to make each frame. All the frames for the Holy Tent must be the same.

18. Make 20 frames for the south side of the Holy Tent.

19. And make 40 silver bases for the frames. Each frame should have two silver bases to go under it—one base for each side pole.

20. Make 20 more frames for the other side (the north side) of the Holy Tent.

21. And make 40 silver bases for these frames—two bases under each frame.

22. Make six more frames for the back (the west side) of the Holy Tent.
