New Living Translation (NLT)

Exodus 37
²⁷ He made two gold rings and attached them on opposite sides of the altar below the gold molding to hold the carrying poles.
²⁸ He made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold.
²⁹ Then he made the sacred anointing oil and the fragrant incense, using the techniques of a skilled incense maker.
Exodus 38
¹ Next Bezalel used acacia wood to construct the square altar of burnt offering. It was 71/2 feet wide, 71/2 feet long, and 41/2 feet high.
² He made horns for each of its four corners so that the horns and altar were all one piece. He overlaid the altar with bronze.
³ Then he made all the altar utensils of bronze—the ash buckets, shovels, basins, meat forks, and firepans.
⁴ Next he made a bronze grating and installed it halfway down the side of the altar, under the ledge.
⁵ He cast four rings and attached them to the corners of the bronze grating to hold the carrying poles.
⁶ He made the poles from acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze.
⁷ He inserted the poles through the rings on the sides of the altar. The altar was hollow and was made from planks.
⁸ Bezalel made the bronze washbasin and its bronze stand from bronze mirrors donated by the women who served at the entrance of the Tabernacle.
