8 Then all the most-skilled men out of the workmen made the ten strips of curtaining for the residence from twisted finely-spun linen and blue, purple, scarlet yarn used to embroider winged-creatures on them. 9 Each strip was 14.5m long and two meters wide—they were all the same size. 10 Five strips were sewn together as one set, and the other five as another set. 11 They[fn] made loops of blue on the edge of the first curtain at the edge of the set, and similarly for the second set—12 fifty matching loops on the edge of each set so they were aligned with each other. 13 They also made fifty gold clips and used them to join the two curtain sets to each other to make the wall of the sacred tent.

14 Then they made eleven goats’ hair curtain sections for the tarpaulin over the sacred tent. 15 All eleven sections were the same size at fifteen metres long and two metres wide, 16 and they joined five sections to each other for one set and six for the other. 17 Then they attached fifty blue loops onto one edge of each of the two sets 18 and made fifty bronze clips for connecting them into one continuous cover. 19 They then made a tarpaulin from red rams skins to go over the tent, and the top waterproof tarpaulin of sea-cow hides.

20 Then they made forty-eight upright frames from acacia wood for the sacred tent. 21 Each frame was five metres long and 0.75m wide 22 with two protrusions on each frame for connecting them together, so all the frames were made in this way. 23 They made twenty frames for the south side 24 with their forty silver bases—two bases under each frame that two more protrusions fitted down into, 25 then two more for the north side 26 with their forty silver bases—two bases under each frame. 27 Six frames were made for the west side 28 as well as two frames for the back corners of the sacred tent. 29 ◙ 30 ◙
