The Outer Covering of Goats' Hair

7

Thou shalt make also eleven curtains of goats' hair, to cover the top of the tabernacle.

8

The length of one hair-curtain shall be thirty cubits; and the breadth, four: the measure of all the curtains shall be equal.

9

Five of which thou shalt couple by themselves, and the six others thou shalt couple one to another, so as to double the sixth curtain in the front of the roof.

10

Thou shalt make also fifty loops in the edge of one curtain, that it may be joined with the other: and fifty loops in the edge of the other curtain, that it may be coupled with its fellow.

11

Thou shalt make also fifty buckles of brass, wherewith the loops may be joined, that of all there may be made one covering.

12

And that which shall remain of the curtains, that are prepared for the roof, to wit, one curtain that is over and above, with the half thereof thou shalt cover the back parts of the tabernacle.

13

And there shall hang down a cubit on the one side, and another on the other side, which is over and above in the length of the curtains, fencing both sides of the tabernacle.

14

Thou shalt make also another cover to the roof of rams' skins dyed red: and over that again another cover of violet coloured skins.
