Exodus 26:14-29 New English Translation (NET)

14. “You are to make a covering for the tent out of ram skins dyed red and over that a covering of fine leather.

15. “You are to make the frames for the tabernacle out of acacia wood as uprights.

16. Each frame is to be fifteen feet long, and each frame is to be two feet three inches wide,

17. with two projections per frame parallel one to another. You are to make all the frames of the tabernacle in this way.

18. So you are to make the frames for the tabernacle: twenty frames for the south side,

19. and you are to make forty silver bases to go under the twenty frames – two bases under the first frame for its two projections, and likewise two bases under the next frame for its two projections;

20. and for the second side of the tabernacle, the north side, twenty frames,

21. and their forty silver bases, two bases under the first frame, and two bases under the next frame.

22. And for the back of the tabernacle on the west you will make six frames.

23. You are to make two frames for the corners of the tabernacle on the back.

24. At the two corners they must be doubled at the lower end and finished together at the top in one ring. So it will be for both.

25. So there are to be eight frames and their silver bases, sixteen bases, two bases under the first frame, and two bases under the next frame.

26. “You are to make bars of acacia wood, five for the frames on one side of the tabernacle,

27. and five bars for the frames on the second side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the frames on the back of the tabernacle on the west.

28. The middle bar in the center of the frames will reach from end to end.

29. You are to overlay the frames with gold and make their rings of gold to provide places for the bars, and you are to overlay the bars with gold.
