5. He cast four rings for the four corners 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 large basin of bronze and its pedestal of bronze from the mirrors of the women who served at the entrance of the tent of meeting.

9. He made the courtyard. For the south side the hangings of the courtyard were of fine twisted linen, one hundred fifty feet long,

10. with their twenty posts and their twenty bronze bases, with the hooks of the posts and their bands of silver.

11. For the north side the hangings were one hundred fifty feet, with their twenty posts and their twenty bronze bases, with the hooks of the posts and their bands of silver.

12. For the west side there were hangings seventy-five feet long, with their ten posts and their ten bases, with the hooks of the posts and their bands of silver.

14. with hangings on one side of the gate that were twenty-two and a half feet long, with their three posts and their three bases,

15. and for the second side of the gate of the courtyard, just like the other, the hangings were twenty-two and a half feet long, with their three posts and their three bases.

16. All the hangings around the courtyard were of fine twisted linen.

17. The bases for the posts were bronze. The hooks of the posts and their bands were silver, their tops were overlaid with silver, and all the posts of the courtyard had silver bands.

18. The curtain for the gate of the courtyard was of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn and fine twisted linen, the work of an embroiderer. It was thirty feet long, and like the hangings in the courtyard, it was seven and a half feet high,

19. with four posts and their four bronze bases. Their hooks and their bands were silver, and their tops were overlaid with silver.
