¹³ These are the measures of the altar by cubits (the cubit is a cubit and a handbreadth): the bottom shall be a cubit, and the breadth a cubit, and the border of it by the edge of it round about a span; and this shall be the base of the altar.

¹ "You shall make the altar of acacia wood, five cubits long, and five cubits broad; the altar shall be foursquare: and its height shall be three cubits.

² You shall make its horns on its four corners; its horns shall be of one piece with it; and you shall overlay it with brass.

³ You shall make its pots to take away its ashes, its shovels, its basins, its flesh hooks, and its fire pans: all its vessels you shall make of brass.

⁴ You shall make a grating for it of network of brass: and on the net you shall make four brazen rings in its four corners.

⁵ You shall put it under the ledge around the altar beneath, that the net may reach halfway up the altar.

⁶ You shall make poles for the altar, poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with brass.

⁷ Its poles shall be put into the rings, and the poles shall be on the two sides of the altar, when carrying it.

⁸ Hollow with planks shall you make it: as it has been shown you on the mountain, so shall they make it.

¹ Moreover he made an altar of brass, twenty cubits the length of it, and twenty cubits the breadth of it, and ten cubits the height of it.

⁵ Behold, a wall on the outside of the house round about, and in the man's hand a measuring reed six cubits long, of a cubit and a handbreadth each: so he measured the thickness of the building, one reed; and the height, one reed.

⁸ I saw also that the house had a raised base round about: the foundations of the side-chambers were a full reed of six great cubits.
