Exodus 26:21-34 New King James Version (NKJV)

21. and their forty sockets of silver: two sockets under each of the boards.

22. For the far side of the tabernacle, westward, you shall make six boards.

23. And you shall also make two boards for the two back corners of the tabernacle.

24. They shall be coupled together at the bottom and they shall be coupled together at the top by one ring. Thus it shall be for both of them. They shall be for the two corners.

25. So there shall be eight boards with their sockets of silver—sixteen sockets—two sockets under each of the boards.

26. “And you shall make bars of acacia wood: five for the boards on one side of the tabernacle,

27. five bars for the boards on the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the side of the tabernacle, for the far side westward.

28. The middle bar shall pass through the midst of the boards from end to end.

29. You shall overlay the boards with gold, make their rings of gold as holders for the bars, and overlay the bars with gold.

30. And you shall raise up the tabernacle according to its pattern which you were shown on the mountain.

31. “You shall make a veil woven of blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and fine woven linen. It shall be woven with an artistic design of cherubim.

32. You shall hang it upon the four pillars of acacia wood overlaid with gold. Their hooks shall be gold, upon four sockets of silver.

33. And you shall hang the veil from the clasps. Then you shall bring the ark of the Testimony in there, behind the veil. The veil shall be a divider for you between the holy place and the Most Holy.

34. You shall put the mercy seat upon the ark of the Testimony in the Most Holy.
