curtains of the tabernacle, which shall remain of either side of the
habitation to cover it withal. And thou shalt make another covering for
the tent of rams' skins dyed red: and yet another above all of taxus'
skins. And thou shalt make boards for the habitation of sethim wood to
stond upright: ten cubits long shall every board be, and a cubit and an
half broad. Two feet shall one board have to couple them together
withal, and so thou shalt make unto all the boards of the habitation.
And thou shalt make twenty boards for the habitation on the south side,
and thou shalt make forty sockets of silver and put them under the
twenty boards: two sockets under every board, for their two feet. In
like manner in the north side of the habitation there shall be twenty
boards and forty sockets of silver: two sockets under every board. And
for the west end of the habitation, shalt thou make six boards, and two
boards more for the two west corners of the habitation: so that these
two boards be coupled together beneath and likewise above with clamps.
And so shall it be in both the corners. And so there shall be eight
boards in all, and sixteen sockets of silver: two sockets under every
board. And thou shalt make bars of sethim wood five for the boards of
the one side of the tabernacle, and five for the other side, and five
for the boards of the west end. And the middle bar shall go along
thorow the midst {mydddes} of the boards and bar them together from the
one end unto the other. And thou shalt cover the boards with gold and
make golden rings for them to put the bars thorow, and shalt cover the
bars with gold also. And rear up the habitation according to the
fashion thereof that was shewed thee in the mount. And thou shalt make
a vail of Iacinth, of scarlet, purple and twined byss, and shalt make
it of broidered work and full of cherubins. And hang it upon four
pillars of sethim wood covered with gold and that their knops be
covered with gold also, and stond upon four sockets of silver. And thou
shalt hang up the vail with rings, and shall bring in within the vail,
the ark of witness. And the vail shall divide the holy from the most
holy. And thou shalt put the mercy seat upon the ark of witness in the
holiest place. And thou shalt put the table without the vail and
candlestick over against the table, upon the south side of the
habitation. And put the table on the north side. And thou shalt make an
hanging for the door of the tabernacle: of Iacinth, of scarlet, of
purple and of twined byss, wrought with needle work. And thou shalt
make for the hanging, five pillars of sethim wood, and cover both them
and their knops with gold, and shalt cast five sockets of brass for
them.
