Exodus 38:1-8 Modern English Version (MEV)

1. He made the altar of burnt offering of acacia wood. It was five cubits long and five cubits wide. It was square, and it was three cubits high.

2. He made its horns on its four corners. The horns were part of the same piece, and he overlaid it with bronze.

3. He made all the utensils of the altar, the pots, and the shovels, and the basins, the flesh hooks, and the fire pans. He made all its utensils of bronze.

4. He made for the altar a bronze grating, a network beneath, under its ledge, reaching halfway up.

5. He cast four rings for the four ends of the bronze grating to provide places for the poles.

6. He made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze.

7. He put the poles into the rings on the sides of the altar with which to carry it. He made the altar hollow, out of boards.

8. He made the basin of bronze with its base of bronze from the mirrors of the women who served at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
