Exodus 26:9

Verse 9 of 37. The 26th of 40 chapters in Exodus, in The Law.

5You shall make fifty loops in the one curtain, and you shall make fifty loops in the edge of the curtain that is in the second coupling. The loops shall be opposite one another.

6You shall make fifty clasps of gold, and couple the curtains to one another with the clasps. The tabernacle shall be a unit.

7“You shall make curtains of goats’ hair for a covering over the tabernacle. You shall make eleven curtains.

8The length of each curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the width of each curtain four cubits: the eleven curtains shall have one measure.

9You shall couple five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves, and shall double over the sixth curtain in the forefront of the tent.

10You shall make fifty loops on the edge of the one curtain that is outermost in the coupling, and fifty loops on the edge of the curtain which is outermost in the second coupling.

11You shall make fifty clasps of bronze, and put the clasps into the loops, and couple the tent together, that it may be one.

12The overhanging part that remains of the curtains of the tent—the half curtain that remains—shall hang over the back of the tabernacle.

13The cubit on the one side and the cubit on the other side, of that which remains in the length of the curtains of the tent, shall hang over the sides of the tabernacle on this side and on that side, to cover it.
