Exodus 36:8-19

DouayRheims(i) 8 And all the men that were wise of heart, to accomplish the work of the tabernacle, made ten curtains of twisted fine linen, and violet, and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, with varied work, and the art of embroidering: 9 The length of one curtain was twenty-eight cubits, and the breadth four: all the curtains were of the same size. 10 And he joined five curtains, one to another, and the other five he coupled one to another. 11 He made also loops of violet in the edge of one curtain on both sides, and in the edge of the other curtain in like manner, 12 That the loops might meet one against another, and might be joined each with the other. 13 Whereupon also he cast fifty rings of gold, that might catch the loops of the curtains, and they might be made one tabernacle. 14 He made also eleven curtains of goats' hair, to cover the roof of the tabernacle: 15 One curtain was thirty cubits long, and four cubits broad: all the curtains were of one measure. 16 Five of which he joined apart, and the other six apart. 17 And he made fifty loops in the edge of one curtain, and fifty in the edge of another curtain, that they might be joined one to another. 18 And fifty buckles of brass wherewith the roof might be knit together, that of all the curtains there might be made one covering. 19 He made also a cover for the tabernacle of rams' skins dyed red; and another cover over that of violet skins.
