and five for the pieces of wood on the other side of the meeting tent. Then he made five for the pieces of wood at the back of the meeting tent, the west side.

He made the long, straight cross-piece for the center to pass through from end to end.

He hung it on four pillars of acacia wood covered with gold. Their hooks were made of gold and he made four silver bases for it.

He made a curtain for the door of the meeting tent out of blue, purple and red cloth and fine linen, the work of an able workman.

He made four rings of gold for it and put them on its four feet. He put two rings on one side of it and two rings on the other side.

He made four rings of gold for it. He put them on the four corners that were on the table's four legs.

He made of pure gold its plates, its pots and its jars, for pouring gifts of drink.

Three cups were made to look like almond flowers, each with bud and flower, on one branch, and three on the next branch. This was done for all six branches going out of the lamp-stand.

He made its seven lamps, the tools for putting out the light, and its dishes of pure gold.

Then he made the altar for burning special perfume of acacia wood. It was one cubit long, one cubit wide, and as high as a man's waist. Its horns were of one piece with it.

Then he made two gold rings to put under this piece. He put one on the altar's left side and one on its right side to hold the long pieces of wood used for carrying it.

And he made the holy oil for pouring, and the pure, sweet-smelling perfume of spices, the work of an able workman.

Then he made the altar for burnt gifts of acacia wood. It was as long and as wide as three steps, and as tall as a man's chest.

He made all the objects of the altar, its pails, its tools for picking up the ashes, its pots, meat-hooks and fire-holders of brass.

He made a net for it of brass. It was put under the altar and it came up half-way.

He put the long pieces of wood through the rings on each side of the altar for carrying it. He made the altar with pieces of wood so it was empty inside.

He made the pot for washing and its base of brass. They were made from the mirrors of the women servants who worked at the door of the meeting tent.

Then he made the open space for the holy tent. On the south side were curtains for the open space. They were made of fine linen, as long as fifty long steps.

The curtains for one side of the gate were as long as seven steps. They had three pillars with three bases.

The bases for the pillars were made of brass. The hooks of the pillars and their rings were made of silver. Their tops were covered with silver. And the pillars were joined with silver.
