27:1  “Now you shall make the altar of acacia wood, five cubits long and five cubits wide; the altar shall be square, and its height shall be three cubits.
27:2  You shall make its horns on its four corners; its horns shall be of one piece with it, and you shall overlay it with bronze.
27:3  And you shall make its pails for removing its ashes, and its shovels, its basins, its forks, and its firepans; you shall make all its utensils of bronze.
27:4  You shall also make for it a grating, a netting of bronze, and on the netting you shall make four bronze rings at its four corners.
27:5  And you shall put it under the ledge of the altar, so that the netting will reach halfway up the altar.
27:6  You shall also make carrying poles for the altar, poles of acacia wood and overlay them with bronze.
27:7  Its poles shall be inserted into the rings, so that the poles will be on the two sides of the altar when it is carried.
27:8  You shall make it hollow with planks; as it was shown to you on the mountain, so they shall make it.
27:9  “Now you shall make the courtyard of the tabernacle. On the south side there shall be hangings for the courtyard of fine twisted linen, a hundred cubits long for one side;
27:10  and its pillars shall be twenty, with their twenty bases of bronze; the hooks of the pillars and their bands shall be of silver.
27:11  Likewise for the north side in length there shall be hangings a hundred cubits long, and its twenty pillars with their twenty bases of bronze; the hooks of the pillars and their bands shall be of silver.

27:17  All the pillars around the courtyard shall be joined together with silver, with their hooks of silver and their bases of bronze.
27:18  The length of the courtyard shall be a hundred cubits, and the width fifty throughout, and the height five cubits of fine twisted linen, and their bases of bronze.
27:19  All the utensils of the tabernacle used in all its service, and all its pegs, and all the pegs of the courtyard, shall be of bronze.
27:20  “And you shall command the sons of Israel that they bring you clear oil of beaten olives for the light, to make a lamp burn continually.
27:21  In the tent of meeting, outside the veil which is before the testimony, Aaron and his sons shall keep it in order from evening to morning before the Lord; it shall be a permanent statute throughout their generations for the sons of Israel.
