1. “Make an altar of acacia wood, four and one-half feet high. It should be square—seven and one-half feet long and seven and one-half feet wide.
2. Make each of the four corners of the altar stick out like a horn, in such a way that the corners with their horns are all one piece. Then cover the whole altar with bronze.
3. “Use bronze to make all the tools and dishes that will be used on the altar: the pots to remove the ashes, the shovels, the bowls for sprinkling blood, the meat forks, and the pans for carrying the burning wood.
4. “Make a large bronze screen to hold the burning wood, and put a bronze ring at each of the four corners of it.
5. Put the screen inside the altar, under its rim, halfway up from the bottom.
6. “Make poles of acacia wood for the altar, and cover them with bronze.
7. Put the poles through the rings on both sides of the altar to carry it.
8. Make the altar out of boards and leave the inside hollow. Make it as you were shown on the mountain.

10. Hang the curtains with silver hooks and bands on twenty bronze posts with twenty bronze bases.
11. The north side must also be one hundred fifty feet long. Hang its curtains on silver hooks and bands on twenty bronze posts with twenty bronze bases.
12. “The west end of the courtyard must have a wall of curtains seventy-five feet long, with ten posts and ten bases on that wall.
13. The east end of the courtyard must also be seventy-five feet long.
