Exodus 27
Jubilee Bible 2000
27 ¶ Thou shalt also make an altar of cedar wood, five cubits long and five cubits broad; the altar shall be foursquare, and its height shall be three cubits.
2 And thou shalt make the horns of it upon its four corners; its horns shall be of the same, and thou shalt cover it with brass.
3 And thou shalt make its pans to receive the ashes with its burnt fat, and its shovels and its basins and its fleshhooks and its firepans; all the vessels thereof thou shalt make of brass.
4 And thou shalt make for it a grate of network of brass; and upon the net shalt thou make four brasen rings in the four corners thereof.
5 And thou shalt put it under the circumference of the altar beneath, that the net may be even to the midst of the altar.
6 Thou shalt also make staves for the altar, staves of cedar wood, and cover them with brass.
7 And the staves shall be put into the rings, and the staves shall be upon the two sides of the altar to bear it.
8 Hollow with boards shalt thou make it; as it was showed thee in the mount, so shall they make it.
9 ¶ In the same manner thou shalt make the court of the tabernacle; to the side of the Negev to the south there shall be hangings for the court of fine twined linen of one hundred cubits long for each side;
10 and its twenty pillars and their twenty sockets shall be of brass; the capitals of the pillars and their fillets shall be of silver.
11 And likewise for the side of the Aquilon in length there shall be hangings of one hundred cubits long, and its twenty pillars with their twenty sockets of brass, the capitals of the pillars and their fillets of silver.
12 And for the breadth of the court on the west side shall be hangings of fifty cubits, their pillars ten, and their sockets ten.
13 And the breadth of the court on the side of the rising sun to the east shall be fifty cubits.
14 The hangings of one side of the gate shall be fifteen cubits, their pillars three, and their sockets three.
15 And on the other side shall be hangings of fifteen cubits, their pillars three, and their sockets three.
16 And at the gate of the court there shall be a hanging of twenty cubits of blue and purple and scarlet and fine twined linen, wrought with needlework; and their pillars shall be four and their sockets four.
17 All the pillars round about the court shall be filleted with silver; their capitals shall be of silver, and their sockets of brass.
18 The length of the court shall be one hundred cubits and the breadth fifty on the one side and fifty on the other and the height five cubits, its hangings of fine twined linen and their sockets of brass.
19 All the vessels of the tabernacle in all the service thereof and all the stakes thereof and all the stakes of the court, shall be of brass.
20 ¶ And thou shalt command the sons of Israel that they bring thee olive oil, clear, crushed, for the light, to cause the lamps to burn always.
21 In the tabernacle of the testimony outside the veil, which shall be before the ark of the testimony, Aaron and his sons shall order them from evening to morning before the LORD; it shall be a perpetual statute of the sons of Israel for their generations.

The Altar of Burnt Offering(A)
27 “Build an altar(B) of acacia wood, three cubits[a] high; it is to be square, five cubits long and five cubits wide.[b] 2 Make a horn(C) at each of the four corners, so that the horns and the altar are of one piece, and overlay the altar with bronze. 3 Make all its utensils of bronze—its pots to remove the ashes, and its shovels, sprinkling bowls,(D) meat forks and firepans.(E) 4 Make a grating for it, a bronze network, and make a bronze ring at each of the four corners of the network. 5 Put it under the ledge of the altar so that it is halfway up the altar. 6 Make poles of acacia wood for the altar and overlay them with bronze.(F) 7 The poles are to be inserted into the rings so they will be on two sides of the altar when it is carried.(G) 8 Make the altar hollow, out of boards. It is to be made just as you were shown(H) on the mountain.
The Courtyard(I)
9 “Make a courtyard(J) for the tabernacle. The south side shall be a hundred cubits[c] long and is to have curtains of finely twisted linen, 10 with twenty posts and twenty bronze bases and with silver hooks and bands on the posts. 11 The north side shall also be a hundred cubits long and is to have curtains, with twenty posts and twenty bronze bases and with silver hooks and bands on the posts.
12 “The west end of the courtyard shall be fifty cubits[d] wide and have curtains, with ten posts and ten bases. 13 On the east end, toward the sunrise, the courtyard shall also be fifty cubits wide. 14 Curtains fifteen cubits[e] long are to be on one side of the entrance, with three posts and three bases, 15 and curtains fifteen cubits long are to be on the other side, with three posts and three bases.
16 “For the entrance to the courtyard, provide a curtain(K) twenty cubits[f] long, of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen—the work of an embroiderer(L)—with four posts and four bases. 17 All the posts around the courtyard are to have silver bands and hooks, and bronze bases. 18 The courtyard shall be a hundred cubits long and fifty cubits wide,[g] with curtains of finely twisted linen five cubits[h] high, and with bronze bases. 19 All the other articles used in the service of the tabernacle, whatever their function, including all the tent pegs for it and those for the courtyard, are to be of bronze.
Oil for the Lampstand(M)
20 “Command the Israelites to bring you clear oil(N) of pressed olives for the light so that the lamps may be kept burning. 21 In the tent of meeting,(O) outside the curtain that shields the ark of the covenant law,(P) Aaron and his sons are to keep the lamps(Q) burning before the Lord from evening till morning. This is to be a lasting ordinance(R) among the Israelites for the generations to come.
