1He made also the altar of burnt sacrifice of the wood of shittim, of five cubits by square, and of three cubits in height;

2whose horns came forth [out] of the corners, and he covered it with plates of brass.

3And into the uses thereof he made ready of brass diverse vessels, caul-drons, tongs, fleshhooks, hooks, and firepans.

4He made also the brazen griddle thereof, in manner of a net, and a firepan under it, in the midst of the altar.

5And he melted out four rings, by so many ends of the griddle, to put in the bars [for] to bear it;

6and he made those same bars of the wood of shittim, and covered them with plates of brass.

7And he led them into the rings that stood forth in the sides of the altar. Forsooth that altar was not massive or solid, but hollow of the building of the boards, and void within.

8He made also a great washing vessel of brass, with his foundament, of the mirrors of brass of the women that watched in the great street of the tabernacle.

9And he made the great porch, or great entry, in whose south coast were [the] curtains of bis folded again, of an hundred cubits,

10twenty brazen pillars with their bases; the hooks of [the] pillars, and the holdings of those ¹⁶, were of silver;

11evenly at the north coast, the curtains, pillars, and bases, and the hooks of pillars, and the holdings of those, were of the same measure, and work, and metal.

12Forsooth in that coast that be-holdeth [to] the west were curtains of fifty cubits, ten brazen pillars with their bases; and the hooks of pillars, and the holdings of those, were of silver.

13Soothly against the east he made ready curtains of fifty cubits,

14of which curtains one side had fifteen cubits, of three pillars with their bases;

15and in the other side, for he made the entering of the tabernacle betwixt ever either, were curtains evenly of fifteen cubits, three pillars, and so many bases.

16Bis folded again covered all the curtains of the great entry.

17The bases of the pillars were of brass; forsooth the hooks of those pillars, and the holdings of those, were of silver; but also he covered with silver the heads of the pillars of the great entry.

18And in the entering thereof he made a curtain, by embroidery work, of jacinth, purple, vermilion, either red cloth, and of bis folded again, which curtain had twenty cubits in length, and the height was of five cubits, by the measure which all the curtains of the great entry had.

19Forsooth the pillars in the entering were four, with brazen bases, and the hooks of pillars, and the holdings of those, were of silver;

20and he made [the] brazen stakes of the tabernacle, and of the great entry, by compass.

21These be the numbers of the amounts of metals of the tabernacle of witnessing, that be numbered, by the commandment of Moses, in the ceremonies, that is, services, of Levites, by the hand of Ithamar, the son of Aaron, [the] priest.

22Which instruments Bezaleel, the son of Uri, [the] son of Hur, of the lineage of Judah, fulfilled; for the Lord commanded by Moses,

23while Aholiab, the son of Ahisa-mach, of the lineage of Dan, was joined fellow to him, and he himself was a noble craftsman of wood, and a tapicer, that is, a weaver of diverse colours, and an embroiderer of jacinth, purple, vermilion, and bis.

24All the gold that was spended in the work of the saintuary, and that was offered in gifts, was of nine and twenty talents, and of seven hundred and thirty shekels, at the measure of the saintuary.

25Forsooth the silver of numbering of the people was an hundred hundreds, and a thousand and seven hundred and seventy and five shekels, at the weight of saintuary,

26half a shekel by each head of all that passed to be numbered, from twenty years and above, of six hundred thousand and three thousand, and five hundred and fifty men.

27Furthermore there were an hundred talents of silver, of which the bases of the saintuary were melted out alto-gether, and the bases of the entering, where the veil hangeth; an hundred bases were made of an hundred talents, for to each base was ordained a talent.

28Forsooth of a thousand seven hundred and seventy and five shekels, he made the hooks of [the] pillars, and covered the heads of the pillars with silver.

29Also of brass were offered two and seventy thousand talents, and four hundred shekels over.

30Of which the bases in the entering of the tabernacle of witnessing were melted out, and the brazen altar, with his griddle, and all the vessels that pertain to the use thereof,

31and the bases of the great entry, as well in the compass, as in the entering thereof, and the stakes of the tabernacle, and of the great entry by compass.
