And they made ten curtains for the tabernacle;
2 And ouerlayde it with fine golde within and without, and made a crowne of golde to it rounde about,
of eight and twenty cubits the length of one curtain: the same [measure] was to all, and the breadth of one curtain was of four cubits.
3 And cast for it foure rings of golde for the foure corners of it: that is, two rings for the one side of it, and two rings for the other side thereof.

And they made the court towards the south; the curtains of the court of fine linen twined, a hundred [cubits] every way,
8 One Cherub on the one ende, and another Cherub on the other ende: of the Merciseate made he the Cherubims, at ye two endes thereof.
and their posts twenty, and their sockets twenty;
9 And the Cherubims spread out their wings on hie, and couered the Merciseat with their wings, and their faces were one towards another: towarde the Merciseat were the faces of the Cherubims.
and on the north side a hundred every way, and on the south side a hundred every way, and their posts twenty and their sockets twenty.

and the veil of the gate of the court, the work of an embroiderer of blue, and purple, and spun scarlet, and fine linen twined; the length of twenty cubits, and the height and the breadth of five cubits, made equal to the curtains of the court;
