The Altar for Offering Sacrifices
(Exodus 27.1-8)1 Bezalel built an altar of acacia wood for offering sacrifices. It was 2.25 meters square and 1.34 meters high 2 with each of its four corners sticking up like the horn of a bull, and it was completely covered with bronze. 3 The equipment for the altar was also made of bronze—the pans for the hot ashes, the shovels, the bowls, the meat forks, and the fire pans. 4 About halfway up the altar he built a ledge around it and covered the bottom half of the altar with a decorative bronze grating. 5 Then he attached a bronze ring beneath the ledge at the four corners to put the poles through. 6 He covered two acacia wood poles with bronze and 7 put them through the rings for carrying the altar, which was shaped like an open box.
The Large Bronze Bowl
(Exodus 30.18-21)8 Bezalel made a large bowl and a stand out of bronze from the mirrors of the women who helped at the entrance to the sacred tent.
The Courtyard around the Sacred Tent
(Exodus 27.9-19)9-17 Around the sacred tent Bezalel built a courtyard 44 meters long on the south and north and 22 meters wide on the east and west. He used 20 bronze posts on bronze stands for the south and north and 10 for the west. Then he hung a curtain of fine linen on the posts along each of these three sides by using silver hooks and rods. He placed three bronze posts on each side of the entrance at the east and hung a curtain 6.67 meters wide on each set of posts.
18-19 For the entrance to the courtyard, Bezalel made a curtain nine meters long, which he hung on four bronze posts that were set on bronze stands. This curtain was 2.25 meters high, the same height as the one for the rest of the courtyard, and was made of fine linen embroidered and woven with blue, purple, and red wool. He hung the curtain on the four posts, using silver hooks and rods. 20 The pegs for the tent and for the curtain around the tent were made of bronze.
The Sacred Tent
21-23 Bezalel had worked closely with Oholiab, who was an expert at designing and engraving, and at embroidering blue, purple, and red wool. The two of them completed the work that the Lord had commanded to be done.
Moses put Aaron's son Ithamar in charge of the Levites who kept record of the metals used for the sacred tent. 24 According to the official weights, the amount of gold given was a ton, 25 and the silver that was collected when the people were counted came to 3.4 tons. 26 Everyone who was counted paid the required amount, and there was a total of 603,550 men who were 20 years old or older.
27 Thirty-four kilograms of the silver were used to make each of the 100 stands for the sacred tent and the curtain. 28 The remaining 30 kilograms of silver were used for the hooks and rods and for covering the tops of the posts.
29 Two thousand four hundred and twenty-five kilograms of bronze were given. 30 And it was used to make the stands for the entrance to the tent, the altar and its grating, the equipment for the altar, 31 the stands for the posts that surrounded the courtyard, including those at the entrance to the courtyard, and the pegs for the tent and the courtyard.
Sadedzināmo upuru altāra izgatavošana
(2Moz 27:1–8)1 Un viņš uztaisīja no akācijkoka altāri sadedzināmajiem upuriem – piecus elkoņus garu, piecus elkoņus platu, četrstūrainu un trīs elkoņus augstu. 2 Viņš darināja tam visos četros stūros ragus – ragi ar to bija no viena gabala, un viņš pārklāja to ar varu. 3 Un viņš darināja visus altāra rīkus – katlus, liekšķeres, bļodas, dakšas un ogļu pannas, visus rīkus viņš darināja no vara. 4 Un viņš darināja altārim režģi, pītu vara darinājumu apakšā pie altāra malas, lai tas sniedzas līdz pusei. 5 Viņš izlēja četrus vara riņķus visiem četriem režģa stūriem kā turekļus nesamajām kārtīm. 6 Un viņš darināja akācijkoka nesamās kārtis un pārklāja tās ar varu. 7 Viņš ievēra nesamās kārtis riņķos abās altāra malās, lai to varētu nest aiz tām, – tos viņš taisīja gar abām malām.
8 Un viņš darināja vara katlu ar vara pamatni no to kalpoņu spoguļiem, kas kalpo Saiešanas telts durvīs.
Pagalma izveidošana
(2Moz 27:9–19)9 Un viņš uztaisīja pagalmu dienvidu pusē. Pagalma priekškars bija no vieglbalta lina, simts elkoņu garš. 10 Un tam – divdesmit stabus ar divdesmit vara pamatiem, stabu āķus un sudraba savienojumus. 11 Un ziemeļu pusē – simts elkoņu garu priekškaru un divdesmit stabus ar divdesmit vara pamatiem, stabu āķus un sudraba savienojumus. 12 Un priekškarus rietumu pusē – piecdesmit elkoņus garus un desmit stabus ar desmit pamatiem, desmit stabu āķus un sudraba savienojumus. 13 Un austrumu pusē, pret saules lēktu – piecdesmit elkoņus garu priekškaru. 14 Un piecpadsmit elkoņus garu priekškaru vārtu sānmalai un tam trīs stabus ar trīs pamatiem. 15 Arī otrā sānmalā, abpus pagalma vārtiem – piecpadsmit elkoņus garu priekškaru un tam trīs stabus ar trīs pamatiem. 16 Visi pagalma priekškari visapkārt bija no vieglbalta lina. 17 Visi stabu pamati – no vara, stabu āķi un savienojumi – no sudraba, to galu pārklājums – no sudraba, un visi pagalma stabi bija sastiprināti ar sudrabu. 18 Un pagalma vārtu priekškaru, austu darinājumu – purpurzilu, purpura, sarkana un vieglbalta lina auduma – divdesmit elkoņus garu un augstu, piecus elkoņus platu, atbilstoši pagalma priekškariem. 19 Un tam četrus stabus ar četriem pamatiem no vara, to āķus no sudraba, un to galu pārklājumu un savienojumus no sudraba. 20 Mājoklim un pagalmam visapkārt visi mietiņi bija no vara.
