26:12. And that which shall remain of the curtains, that are prepared
for the roof, to wit, one curtain that is over and above, with the half
thereof thou shalt cover the back parts of the tabernacle.
26:13. And there shall hang down a cubit on the one side, and another on
the other side, which is over and above in the length of the curtains,
fencing both sides of the tabernacle.
26:14. Thou shalt make also another cover to the roof of rams' skins
dyed red: and over that again another cover of violet coloured skins.
26:15. Thou shalt make also the boards of the tabernacle standing
upright of setim wood.
26:16. Let every one of them be ten cubits in length, and in breadth one
cubit and a half.
26:17. In the sides of the boards shall be made two mortises, whereby
one board may be joined to another board: and after this manner shall
all the boards be prepared.

every board may be put two sockets at the two corners.

each board.

boards.
26:23. And again other two which shall be erected in the corners at the
back of the tabernacle.

one joint shall hold them all. The like joining shall be observed for
the two boards also that are to be put in the corners.
26:25. And they shall be in all eight boards, and their silver sockets
sixteen, reckoning two sockets for each board.

the boards on one side of the tabernacle.

26:28. And they shall be put along by the midst of the boards, from one
end to the other.

shalt cast rings of gold to be set upon them, for places for the bars to
hold together the boardwork: which bars thou shalt cover with plates of
gold.
26:30. And thou shalt rear up the tabernacle according to the pattern
that was shewn thee in the mount.
26:31. Thou shalt make also a veil of violet, and purple, and scarlet
twice dyed, and fine twisted linen, wrought with embroidered work and
goodly variety:
26:32. And thou shalt hang it up before four pillars of setim wood,
which themselves also shall be overlaid with gold, and shall have heads
of gold, but sockets of silver.
26:33. And the veil shall be hanged on with rings, and within it thou
shalt put the ark of the testimony, and the sanctuary and the holy of
the holies shall be divided with it.
