1He made the altar of burnt offering of acacia wood. Five cubits[1] was its length, and five cubits its breadth. It was square, and three cubits was its height. (Ex 27:1)2He made horns for it on its four corners. Its horns were of one piece with it, and he overlaid it with bronze.3And he made all the utensils of the altar, the pots, the shovels, the basins, the forks, and the fire pans. He made all its utensils of bronze.4And he made for the altar a grating, a network of bronze, under its ledge, extending halfway down.5He cast four rings on the four corners of the bronze grating as holders for the poles.6He made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze.7And he put the poles through the rings on the sides of the altar to carry it with them. He made it hollow, with boards.
Making the Bronze Basin
8He made the basin of bronze and its stand of bronze, from the mirrors of the ministering women who ministered in the entrance of the tent of meeting. (Ex 30:18; Nu 4:23; Nu 8:24; 1Sa 2:22)
Making the Court
9And he made the court. For the south side the hangings of the court were of fine twined linen, a hundred cubits; (Ex 27:9)10their twenty pillars and their twenty bases were of bronze, but the hooks of the pillars and their fillets were of silver.11And for the north side there were hangings of a hundred cubits; their twenty pillars and their twenty bases were of bronze, but the hooks of the pillars and their fillets were of silver.12And for the west side were hangings of fifty cubits, their ten pillars, and their ten bases; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets were of silver.13And for the front to the east, fifty cubits.14The hangings for one side of the gate were fifteen cubits, with their three pillars and three bases.15And so for the other side. On both sides of the gate of the court were hangings of fifteen cubits, with their three pillars and their three bases.16All the hangings around the court were of fine twined linen.17And the bases for the pillars were of bronze, but the hooks of the pillars and their fillets were of silver. The overlaying of their capitals was also of silver, and all the pillars of the court were filleted with silver.18And the screen for the gate of the court was embroidered with needlework in blue and purple and scarlet yarns and fine twined linen. It was twenty cubits long and five cubits high in its breadth, corresponding to the hangings of the court.19And their pillars were four in number. Their four bases were of bronze, their hooks of silver, and the overlaying of their capitals and their fillets of silver.20And all the pegs for the tabernacle and for the court all around were of bronze.
Materials for the Tabernacle
21These are the records of the tabernacle, the tabernacle of the testimony, as they were recorded at the commandment of Moses, the responsibility of the Levites under the direction of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. (Ex 6:23; Ex 16:34; Ex 28:1; Nu 1:50; Nu 1:53; Nu 4:28; Nu 4:33; Nu 9:15; Nu 10:11; Nu 17:7; Nu 18:2; 2Ch 24:6; Ac 7:44)22Bezalel the son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made all that the Lord commanded Moses; (Ex 31:2; Ex 31:6)23and with him was Oholiab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, an engraver and designer and embroiderer in blue and purple and scarlet yarns and fine twined linen. (Ex 38:22)24All the gold that was used for the work, in all the construction of the sanctuary, the gold from the offering, was twenty-nine talents and 730 shekels,[2] by the shekel of the sanctuary. (Ex 30:13)25The silver from those of the congregation who were recorded was a hundred talents and 1,775 shekels, by the shekel of the sanctuary:26a beka[3] a head (that is, half a shekel, by the shekel of the sanctuary), for everyone who was listed in the records, from twenty years old and upward, for 603,550 men. (Ex 38:24; Nu 1:46)27The hundred talents of silver were for casting the bases of the sanctuary and the bases of the veil; a hundred bases for the hundred talents, a talent a base. (Ex 26:19; Ex 26:21; Ex 26:25; Ex 26:32)28And of the 1,775 shekels he made hooks for the pillars and overlaid their capitals and made fillets for them.29The bronze that was offered was seventy talents and 2,400 shekels;30with it he made the bases for the entrance of the tent of meeting, the bronze altar and the bronze grating for it and all the utensils of the altar, (Ex 26:37; Ex 27:2)31the bases around the court, and the bases of the gate of the court, all the pegs of the tabernacle, and all the pegs around the court. (Ex 27:10; Ex 27:16; Ex 27:19)
1They[1] built the altar of burnt offering of acacia wood, three cubits[2] high; it was square, five cubits long and five cubits wide.[3]2They made a horn at each of the four corners, so that the horns and the altar were of one piece, and they overlaid the altar with bronze.3They made all its utensils of bronze – its pots, shovels, sprinkling bowls, meat forks and firepans.4They made a grating for the altar, a bronze network, to be under its ledge, halfway up the altar.5They cast bronze rings to hold the poles for the four corners of the bronze grating.6They made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze.7They inserted the poles into the rings so they would be on the sides of the altar for carrying it. They made it hollow, out of boards.8They made the bronze basin and its bronze stand from the mirrors of the women who served at the entrance to the tent of meeting.
The basin for washing The courtyard
9Next they made the courtyard. The south side was a hundred cubits[4] long and had curtains of finely twisted linen,10with twenty posts and twenty bronze bases, and with silver hooks and bands on the posts.11The north side was also a hundred cubits long and had twenty posts and twenty bronze bases, with silver hooks and bands on the posts.12The west end was fifty cubits[5] wide and had curtains, with ten posts and ten bases, with silver hooks and bands on the posts.13The east end, towards the sunrise, was also fifty cubits wide.14Curtains fifteen cubits[6] long were on one side of the entrance, with three posts and three bases,15and curtains fifteen cubits long were on the other side of the entrance to the courtyard, with three posts and three bases.16All the curtains around the courtyard were of finely twisted linen.17The bases for the posts were bronze. The hooks and bands on the posts were silver, and their tops were overlaid with silver; so all the posts of the courtyard had silver bands.18The curtain for the entrance to the courtyard was made of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen – the work of an embroiderer. It was twenty cubits[7] long and, like the curtains of the courtyard, five cubits[8] high,19with four posts and four bronze bases. Their hooks and bands were silver, and their tops were overlaid with silver.20All the tent pegs of the tabernacle and of the surrounding courtyard were bronze.
The materials used
21These are the amounts of the materials used for the tabernacle, the tabernacle of the covenant law, which were recorded at Moses’ command by the Levites under the direction of Ithamar son of Aaron, the priest.22(Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made everything the Lord commanded Moses;23with him was Oholiab son of Ahisamak, of the tribe of Dan – an engraver and designer, and an embroiderer in blue, purple and scarlet yarn and fine linen.)24The total amount of the gold from the wave offering used for all the work on the sanctuary was 29 talents and 730 shekels,[9] according to the sanctuary shekel.25The silver obtained from those of the community who were counted in the census was 100 talents[10] and 1,775 shekels,[11] according to the sanctuary shekel –26one beka per person, that is, half a shekel,[12] according to the sanctuary shekel, from everyone who had crossed over to those counted, twenty years old or more, a total of 603,550 men.27The 100 talents of silver were used to cast the bases for the sanctuary and for the curtain – 100 bases from the 100 talents, one talent for each base.28They used the 1,775 shekels to make the hooks for the posts, to overlay the tops of the posts, and to make their bands.29The bronze from the wave offering was 70 talents and 2,400 shekels.[13]30They used it to make the bases for the entrance to the tent of meeting, the bronze altar with its bronze grating and all its utensils,31the bases for the surrounding courtyard and those for its entrance and all the tent pegs for the tabernacle and those for the surrounding courtyard.
1The workers built the altar for burnt offerings out of acacia wood. It was 1.5 metres high and 2.5 metres square.2They made a horn stick out from each of its four upper corners. They covered the altar with bronze.3They made all its tools out of bronze. They made its pots, shovels, sprinkling bowls, meat forks, and pans for carrying ashes.4They made a bronze grate for the altar. They put the grate halfway up the altar on the inside.5They made a bronze ring for each of the four corners of the grate.6They made poles out of acacia wood. They covered them with bronze.7They put the poles through the rings. The poles were on two sides of the altar for carrying it. The workers made the altar out of boards. They left it hollow.8The workers made the large bronze bowl and its bronze stand. They made them out of bronze mirrors. The mirrors belonged to the women who served at the entrance to the tent of meeting.
The large bowl for washing The courtyard
9Next, the workers made the courtyard. The south side was 50 metres long. It had curtains made out of finely twisted linen.10The curtains had 20 posts and 20 bronze bases. The posts had silver hooks and bands on them.11The north side was also 50 metres long. Its curtains had 20 posts and 20 bronze bases. The posts had silver hooks and bands on them.12The west end was 25 metres wide. It had curtains with ten posts and ten bases. The posts had silver hooks and bands on them.13The east end, towards the sunrise, was also 25 metres wide.14Curtains 7.5 metres long were on one side of the entrance to the courtyard. They were hung on three posts. Each post had a base.15Curtains 7.5 metres long were also on the other side of the entrance. They were hung on three posts. Each post had a base.16All the curtains around the courtyard were made out of finely twisted linen.17The bases for the posts were made out of bronze. The hooks and bands on the posts were made out of silver. Their tops were covered with silver. So all the posts of the courtyard had silver bands.18The curtain for the courtyard entrance was made out of blue, purple and bright red yarn and finely twisted linen. A person who sewed skilfully made it. It was 10 metres long. Like the curtains of the courtyard, it was 2.5 metres high.19It had four posts and four bronze bases. Their hooks and bands were made out of silver. Their tops were covered with silver.20All the tent stakes of the holy tent were made out of bronze. So were all the stakes of the courtyard around it.
The amounts of the metals used
21Here are the amounts of the metals used for the holy tent, where the tablets of the covenant law were kept. Moses commanded the Levites to record the amounts. The Levites did the work under the direction of Ithamar. Ithamar was the son of Aaron the priest.22Bezalel, the son of Uri, made everything the LORD had commanded Moses. Uri was the son of Hur. Bezalel was from the tribe of Judah.23Oholiab, the son of Ahisamak, helped Bezalel. Oholiab was from the tribe of Dan. He could carve things and make patterns. And he could sew skilfully with blue, purple and bright red yarn and on fine linen.24The total weight of the gold from the wave offering was more than a tonne. It was weighed out in keeping with the standard weights used in the sacred tent. The gold was used for all the work done in connection with the sacred tent.25The silver received from the men in the community who were listed and counted weighed almost 4 tonnes. It was weighed out in keeping with the weights used in the sacred tent.26It amounted to 6 grams for each person. It was weighed out in keeping with the weights used in the sacred tent. The silver was received from the men who had been listed and counted. All of them were 20 years old or more. Their total number was 603,550.27The 3.5 tonnes of silver were used to make the bases for the holy tent and for the curtain. The 100 bases were made from the 3.5 tonnes. Each base used more than 36 kilograms of silver.28The workers used 21 kilograms to make the hooks for the posts, to cover the tops of the posts, and to make their bands.29The bronze from the wave offering weighed 2.5 tonnes.30The workers used some of it to make the bases for the entrance to the tent of meeting. They used some for the bronze altar for burnt offerings and its bronze grate and all its tools.31They used some for the bases for the courtyard around the holy tent. They used some for the bases for the courtyard entrance. And they used the rest to make all the tent stakes for the holy tent and the courtyard around it.
Exodus 38
King James Version
1And he made the altar of burnt offering of shittim wood: five cubits was the length thereof, and five cubits the breadth thereof; it was foursquare; and three cubits the height thereof.2And he made the horns thereof on the four corners of it; the horns thereof were of the same: and he overlaid it with brass.3And he made all the vessels of the altar, the pots, and the shovels, and the basons, and the fleshhooks, and the firepans: all the vessels thereof made he of brass.4And he made for the altar a brasen grate of network under the compass thereof beneath unto the midst of it.5And he cast four rings for the four ends of the grate of brass, to be places for the staves.6And he made the staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with brass.7And he put the staves into the rings on the sides of the altar, to bear it withal; he made the altar hollow with boards.8And he made the laver of brass, and the foot of it of brass, of the lookingglasses of the women assembling, which assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.9And he made the court: on the south side southward the hangings of the court were of fine twined linen, an hundred cubits:10Their pillars were twenty, and their brasen sockets twenty; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets were of silver.11And for the north side the hangings were an hundred cubits, their pillars were twenty, and their sockets of brass twenty; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets of silver.12And for the west side were hangings of fifty cubits, their pillars ten, and their sockets ten; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets of silver.13And for the east side eastward fifty cubits.14The hangings of the one side of the gate were fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three.15And for the other side of the court gate, on this hand and that hand, were hangings of fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three.16All the hangings of the court round about were of fine twined linen.17And the sockets for the pillars were of brass; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets of silver; and the overlaying of their chapiters of silver; and all the pillars of the court were filleted with silver.18And the hanging for the gate of the court was needlework, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen: and twenty cubits was the length, and the height in the breadth was five cubits, answerable to the hangings of the court.19And their pillars were four, and their sockets of brass four; their hooks of silver, and the overlaying of their chapiters and their fillets of silver.20And all the pins of the tabernacle, and of the court round about, were of brass.21This is the sum of the tabernacle, even of the tabernacle of testimony, as it was counted, according to the commandment of Moses, for the service of the Levites, by the hand of Ithamar, son to Aaron the priest.22And Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made all that the LORD commanded Moses.23And with him was Aholiab, son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, an engraver, and a cunning workman, and an embroiderer in blue, and in purple, and in scarlet, and fine linen.24All the gold that was occupied for the work in all the work of the holy place , even the gold of the offering, was twenty and nine talents, and seven hundred and thirty shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary.25And the silver of them that were numbered of the congregation was an hundred talents, and a thousand seven hundred and threescore and fifteen shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary:26A bekah for every man, that is , half a shekel, after the shekel of the sanctuary, for every one that went to be numbered, from twenty years old and upward, for six hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty men .27And of the hundred talents of silver were cast the sockets of the sanctuary, and the sockets of the vail; an hundred sockets of the hundred talents, a talent for a socket.28And of the thousand seven hundred seventy and five shekels he made hooks for the pillars, and overlaid their chapiters, and filleted them.29And the brass of the offering was seventy talents, and two thousand and four hundred shekels.30And therewith he made the sockets to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and the brasen altar, and the brasen grate for it, and all the vessels of the altar,31And the sockets of the court round about, and the sockets of the court gate, and all the pins of the tabernacle, and all the pins of the court round about.
Exodus 38
Einheitsübersetzung 2016
from Katholisches Bibelwerk1Dann machte er den Brandopferaltar aus Akazienholz, fünf Ellen lang, fünf Ellen breit - also quadratisch - und drei Ellen hoch. (Ex 27:1)2Er machte ihm Hörner an seinen vier Ecken - seine Hörner bildeten mit ihm ein Ganzes - und überzog ihn mit Kupfer.3Er stellte auch alle Altargeräte her: die Gefäße, die Schaufeln, die Schalen, die Gabeln und die Feuerpfannen. Alle seine Geräte stellte er aus Kupfer her.4Er machte auch für den Altar ein Gitterwerk, ein Netzgitter aus Kupfer, unterhalb der Einfassung bis zu seiner halben Höhe.5Dann goss er vier Ringe an die vier Enden des kupfernen Gitterwerkes zum Aufnehmen der Stangen.6Er verfertigte die Stangen aus Akazienholz und überzog sie mit Kupfer.7Er steckte die Stangen in die Ringe an den Seiten des Altars, sodass man ihn damit tragen konnte; er machte ihn hohl, aus Brettern.8Er machte das Becken und sein Gestell aus Kupfer, und zwar aus den Spiegeln der Frauen, die am Eingang des Offenbarungszeltes Dienst taten. (Ex 30:17)9Dann machte er den Vorhof: für die südliche Längsseite Vorhofbehänge aus gezwirntem Byssus, hundert Ellen. (Ex 27:9)10Ihre zwanzig Säulen und deren zwanzig Sockel waren aus Kupfer, die Nägel der Säulen und ihre Querstangen waren aus Silber.11Für die nördliche Längsseite hundert Ellen Behänge; ihre zwanzig Säulen und deren zwanzig Sockel waren aus Kupfer; die Nägel der Säulen und ihre Querstangen waren aus Silber.12Für die Westseite fünfzig Ellen Behänge, ihre zehn Säulen und deren zehn Sockel; die Nägel der Säulen und ihre Querstangen waren aus Silber.13Für die Vorderseite, gegen Osten hin, fünfzig Ellen Behänge,14und zwar fünfzehn Ellen Behänge für die eine Seitenwand mit den drei Säulen und den drei Sockeln,15ebenso für die andere Seitenwand. So waren beiderseits des Vorhoftores fünfzehn Ellen Behänge mit den drei Säulen und den drei Sockeln.16Alle Behänge des Vorhofs ringsum bestanden aus gezwirntem Byssus.17Die Sockel der Säulen waren aus Kupfer, die Nägel der Säulen und ihre Querstangen aus Silber, der Überzug ihrer Kapitelle aus Silber. Alle Säulen des Vorhofs hatten Querstangen aus Silber.18Für das Tor des Vorhofs machte er eine Verhüllung: Sie war Buntwirkerarbeit aus violettem und rotem Purpur, Karmesin und gezwirntem Byssus, zwanzig Ellen breit und fünf Ellen hoch, entsprechend den übrigen Behängen des Vorhofs.19Ihre vier Säulen und deren vier Sockel waren aus Kupfer, ihre Nägel aus Silber und auch der Überzug ihrer Kapitelle und ihre Querstangen aus Silber.20Alle Zeltpflöcke für die Wohnung und den Vorhof ringsum waren aus Kupfer.21Das ist die Erhebung zugunsten der Wohnung, der Wohnung des Bundeszeugnisses; diese Erhebung hatte Mose den Leviten unter dem Priester Itamar, dem Sohn Aarons, übertragen. (Ex 30:11)22Bezalel, der Sohn Uris, des Sohnes Hurs, vom Stamm Juda, führte alles aus, was der Herr dem Mose befohlen hatte.23Mit Oholiab, dem Sohn Ahisamachs, vom Stamm Dan, als Steinschneider, Kunstweber und Buntwirker des violetten und roten Purpurs, des Karmesins und des Byssus führte er alles aus.24Das gesamte Gold, das man für alle Arbeiten zur Errichtung des Heiligtums verwendete – es war das Gold der Weihegaben –, wog 29 Talente und 730 Schekel, und zwar nach dem Schekelgewicht des Heiligtums.25Das Silber betrug aufgrund der Erhebung der Gemeinde 100 Talente und 1775 Schekel, und zwar nach dem Schekelgewicht des Heiligtums,26einen Halbschekel für jede Person, also die Hälfte eines Schekels, und zwar nach dem Schekelgewicht des Heiligtums, für jeden von zwanzig Jahren und darüber, der zur Erhebung vortreten musste, also für 603 550 Mann.27Verwendet wurden 100 Talente Silber zum Guss der Sockel des Heiligtums und der Sockel des Vorhangs, 100 Talente für 100 Sockel, also ein Talent für einen Sockel.28Aus 1775 Schekel machte er die Nägel für die Säulen, überzog die Kapitelle und verband sie miteinander.29Das Kupfer der Weihegaben betrug 70 Talente und 2400 Schekel.30Daraus machte er die Sockel für den Eingang des Offenbarungszeltes, den kupfernen Altar samt seinem kupfernen Gitterwerk und alle Altargeräte31sowie die Sockel für den Vorhof ringsum, die Torsockel des Vorhofs, alle Zeltpflöcke der Wohnung und alle Zeltpflöcke des Vorhofs ringsum.
