26 You must make my residence with ten fabric panels formed by a skilled craftsman. They must be made from twisted finely-spun linen, with winged-creatures embroidered on them using blue, purple, and scarlet thread. 2 The hanging panels must all be the same size: 14.5m long and two metres wide. 3 Five of the panels will be coupled together as one set and the other five as another. 4 For each set, make loops of blue cloth and fasten them along the outer edge of each of the end panels—5 place fifty loops on the end of each set so that the loops are opposite each other. 6 You’ll also need to make fifty gold clips to join the two sets together to make a single walled structure.

7 You must make eleven panels with goats’ hair to form a tent over the residence. 8 Each of the eleven panels must be the same size: 15m long and two metres wide. 9 You must join five panels into a set, and six panels into the other set so that the sixth panel can be doubled over at the front of the tent. 10 You must make 50 loops to go onto the end of one set, and another 50 for the edge of the other set. 11 You’ll also need to make fifty bronze clips to join the two sets together to make the tent cover. 12 Let the extra half panel hang over the back of the residence. 13 The half metre of extra length on each side that extends beyond the linen sets will hang evenly over the sides.

14 You must make a covering of rams hides dyed red to go over the tent, then another covering sea-cow hides to go over that.

15 You must make frames for my residence from acacia wood. They’ll stand upright 16 and each one must be five metres high and 0.75m wide. 17 Each frame must have two protrusions so it can be connected to the frame next to it. 18 Assemble twenty frames for the south side of the residence 19 along with forty silver bases to go underneath them—two bases supporting each frame, and each frame having two protrusions at the bottom to go into the bases. 20 For the north side, assemble twenty frames 21 along with forty silver bases—two under each frame. 22 For the rear of the residence facing west, assemble six frames 23 plus two extra frames for bracing the two back corners—24 they must be joined on at the bottom and then both of them have their tops attached to a ring. 25 Then assemble eight frames with their sixteen silver bases—two bases supporting each frame.

26 Make crossbars from acacia wood—five of them to go across the frames on the northern side, 27 five for the south side, and five for the frames at the rear of the residence on the western side. 28 The middle crossbar in the centre of the frames will go right through from one end to the other. 29 Overlay the frames and the crossbars with gold, and make the rings for holding the crossbars with gold. 30 Then you must assemble my residence exactly as per the plan that you were shown on the mountain.

31 You must have a skillful workman make a curtain from twisted finely-spun linen, with winged-creatures embroidered on them using blue, purple, and scarlet thread. 32 Hang it from gold clips on four pillars made from acacia wood overlaid with gold on four silver bases. 33 Hang the curtain under the clips, then bring the box that contains the agreement inside the curtain. That curtain will separate for you between the sacred section and the very sacred interior.[ref] 34 Install the atonement platform as the lid on the box there in the very sacred interior. 35 Set the table up outside the curtain on the north side, with the lampstand on the south side opposite the table.

36 Then make a curtain out of twisted finely-spun linen for the entrance of the tent. It should be embroidered with blue, purple and scarlet yarn. 37 Make five pillars for the curtain from acacia wood overlaid with gold. The hooks on them must be made of gold, and their five bases must be cast with bronze.
