New Living Translation (NLT)
Exodus 27
1 “Using acacia wood, construct a square altar 71/2 feet wide, 71/2 feet long, and 41/2 feet high.
2 Make horns for each of its four corners so that the horns and altar are all one piece. Overlay the altar with bronze.
3 Make ash buckets, shovels, basins, meat forks, and firepans, all of bronze.
4 Make a bronze grating for it, and attach four bronze rings at its four corners.
5 Install the grating halfway down the side of the altar, under the ledge.
6 For carrying the altar, make poles from acacia wood, and overlay them with bronze.
7 Insert the poles through the rings on the two sides of the altar.
8 The altar must be hollow, made from planks. Build it just as you were shown on the mountain.
9 “Then make the courtyard for the Tabernacle, enclosed with curtains made of finely woven linen. On the south side, make the curtains 150 feet long.
10 They will be held up by twenty posts set securely in twenty bronze bases. Hang the curtains with silver hooks and rings.
11 Make the curtains the same on the north side—150 feet of curtains held up by twenty posts set securely in bronze bases. Hang the curtains with silver hooks and rings.
