1 Make ten curtains for the Tabernacle of finely-spun linen, using blue, purple, and crimson threads. Have them embroidered with cherubim by someone who is skilled.
1 Y HARÁS el tabernáculo de diez cortinas de lino torcido, cárdeno, y púrpura, y carmesí: y harás querubines de obra delicada.
1 “Moreover you shall make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, with cherubim. You shall make them with the work of a skillful workman.
2 Each curtain is to measure twenty-eight cubits long by four cubits wide, and all the curtains are to be the same size.
2 La longitud de la una cortina de veintiocho codos, y la anchura de la misma cortina de cuatro codos: todas las cortinas tendrán una medida.
2 The length of each curtain shall be twenty-eight cubits, and the width of each curtain four cubits: all the curtains shall have one measure.
3 Join five of the curtains together, and then do the same to the other five.
3 Cinco cortinas estarán juntas la una con la otra, y cinco cortinas unidas la una con la otra.
3 Five curtains shall be coupled together to one another, and the other five curtains shall be coupled to one another.
4 Use blue material to make loops on the edge of the last curtain of both sets.
4 Y harás lazadas de cárdeno en la orilla de la una cortina, en el borde, en la juntura: y así harás en la orilla de la postrera cortina en la juntura segunda.
4 You shall make loops of blue on the edge of the one curtain from the edge in the coupling, and you shall do likewise on the edge of the curtain that is outermost in the second coupling.
5 Make fifty loops on one curtain and fifty loops on the last curtain of the second set, lining up the loops with each other.
5 Cincuenta lazadas harás en la una cortina, y cincuenta lazadas harás en el borde de la cortina que está en la segunda juntura: las lazadas estarán contrapuestas la una á la otra.
5 You 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.
6 Then make fifty gold clips and join the curtains together with the clips, so that the Tabernacle will be a single structure.
6 Harás también cincuenta corchetes de oro, con los cuales juntarás las cortinas la una con la otra, y se formará un tabernáculo.
6 You shall make fifty clasps of gold, and couple the curtains to one another with the clasps. The tabernacle shall be a unit.

7 Harás asimismo cortinas de [pelo] de cabras para una cubierta sobre el tabernáculo; once cortinas harás.
7 “You shall make curtains of goats’ hair for a covering over the tabernacle. You shall make eleven curtains.
8 Each of the eleven curtains is to be the same size—thirty cubits long by four cubits wide.
8 La longitud de la una cortina será de treinta codos, y la anchura de la misma cortina de cuatro codos: una medida tendrán las once cortinas.
8 The length of each curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the width of each curtain four cubits: the eleven curtains shall have one measure.
9 Join five of the curtains together as one set and the other six as another set. Then fold the sixth curtain in two at the front of the tent.
9 Y juntarás las cinco cortinas aparte y las otras seis cortinas separadamente; y doblarás la sexta cortina delante de la faz del tabernáculo.
9 You shall couple five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves, and shall double over the sixth curtain in the forefront of the tent.
10 Make fifty loops on the edge of the last curtain in the first set, and fifty loops along the edge of the last curtain in the second set.
10 Y harás cincuenta lazadas en la orilla de la una cortina, al borde en la juntura, y cincuenta lazadas en la orilla de la segunda cortina en la [otra] juntura.
10 You 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.
11 Make fifty bronze clips and put them in the loops to join the tent together as a single cover.
11 Harás asimismo cincuenta corchetes de alambre, los cuales meterás por las lazadas: y juntarás la tienda, para que se haga una sola cubierta.
11 You shall make fifty clasps of bronze, and put the clasps into the loops, and couple the tent together, that it may be one.
12 The extra half-curtain of this tent covering will be left to hang over the back of the Tabernacle.
12 Y el sobrante que resulta en las cortinas de la tienda, la mitad de la una cortina que sobra, quedará á las espaldas del tabernáculo.
12 The overhanging part that remains of the curtains of the tent—the half curtain that remains—shall hang over the back of the tabernacle.
13 The tent curtains will be a cubit longer on every side, and the extra length will hang over the sides of the Tabernacle so it is all covered.
13 Y un codo de la una parte, y otro codo de la otra que sobra en la longitud de las cortinas de la tienda, cargará sobre los lados del tabernáculo de la una parte y de la otra, para cubrirlo.
13 The 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.
14 Make a covering for the goat hair tent from tanned ram skins, and place an extra covering of fine leather over that.
14 Harás también á la tienda una cubierta de cueros de carneros, teñidos de rojo, y una cubierta de cueros de tejones encima.
14 You shall make a covering for the tent of rams’ skins dyed red, and a covering of sea cow hides above.

16 Each frame is to be ten cubits long by one and a half cubits wide.
16 La longitud de cada tabla será de diez codos, y de codo y medio la anchura de cada tabla.
16 Ten cubits shall be the length of a board, and one and a half cubits the width of each board.
17 Each frame will have two pegs so the frames can be connected to each other. Make all the frames of the Tabernacle like this.
17 Dos quicios tendrá cada tabla, trabadas la una con la otra; así harás todas las tablas del tabernáculo.
17 There shall be two tenons in each board, joined to one another: thus you shall make for all the boards of the tabernacle.
18 Make twenty frames for the south side of the Tabernacle.
18 Harás, pues, las tablas del tabernáculo: veinte tablas al lado del mediodía, al austro.
18 You shall make twenty boards for the tabernacle, for the south side southward.
19 Make forty silver stands as supports for the twenty frames using two stands per frame, one under every frame peg.

19 You shall make forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards; two sockets under one board for its two tenons, and two sockets under another board for its two tenons.

23 along with two frames for its two back corners.
23 Harás además dos tablas para las esquinas del tabernáculo en los dos ángulos posteriores;
23 You shall make two boards for the corners of the tabernacle in the far side.
24 Join these corner frames at the bottom and at the top near to the first ring. This is how you are to make the two corner frames.
24 Las cuales se unirán por abajo, y asimismo se juntarán por su alto á un gozne: así será de las otras dos [que] estarán á las dos esquinas.
24 They shall be double beneath, and in the same way they shall be whole to its top to one ring: thus shall it be for them both; they shall be for the two corners.
25 In total there will be eight frames and sixteen silver stands, two under each frame.

27 and five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the side of the tabernacle, for the far side westward.
28 The central crossbar which is placed halfway up the frames will run from one end to the other.
28 Y la barra del medio pasará por medio de las tablas, del un cabo al otro.
28 The middle bar in the middle of the boards shall pass through from end to end.
29 Cover the frames with gold, and make gold rings to hold the crossbars in place. Cover the crossbars with gold too.

32 You shall hang it on four pillars of acacia overlaid with gold; their hooks shall be of gold, on four sockets of silver.

33 You shall hang up the veil under the clasps, and shall bring the ark of the covenant in there within the veil. The veil shall separate the holy place from the most holy for you.

34 Y pondrás la cubierta sobre el arca del testimonio en el lugar santísimo.
34 You shall put the mercy seat on the ark of the covenant in the most holy place.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Again, they assert that the sun, the great light-giver, was formed on the fourth day, with a reference to the number of the Tetrad. So also, according to them, the courts of the tabernacle constructed by Moses, being composed of fine linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, pointed to the same image.
Among the rest, curtains of haircloth were ordered to be made not ten, but eleven; because by haircloth is signified the confession of sins.
Read in context · Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers, series 1, vol. 6 (1888)
… assigned Saul the chief place among thirty guests; by David, when for thirty days he concealed himself in the field; by those who entered along with him into the cave; also by the fact that the length (height) of the holy tabernacle was thirty cubits; and if they meet with any other like numbers, they still apply these to their …
They have carefully enumerated the curtains as being ten, declaring these a type of the ten Æons; but they have forgotten to count the coverings of skin, which were eleven in number.
