Exodus 36:6-13 Modern English Version (MEV)

6. So Moses issued a command, and they circulated a proclamation throughout the camp, saying, “Let no man or woman do any more work for the offering of the sanctuary.” So the people were restrained from bringing any more.

7. For the material they had was sufficient for all the work and more than enough to do it.

8. Every skilled man among those who were doing the work made the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twisted linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, with cherubim that were the work of skillful workmen.

9. The length of each curtain was twenty-eight cubits, and the width of each curtain four cubits. All ofthe curtains were the same size.

10. He joined thefive curtains to one another, and the other five curtains he joined to one to another.

11. He made loops of blue on the edge of the outermost curtain in the first set. He did likewise along the edge of the outermost curtain in the second set.

12. He made fifty loops in the one curtain and made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain which was in the second set. The loops were opposite one another.

13. He made fifty gold clasps and joined the curtains to one another with the clasps, so that the tabernacle was a unit.
