27  Me hanga ano e koe tetahi aata, ki te hitimi te rakau, kia rima nga whatianga te roa, kia rima whatianga te whanui; kia tapawha te aata: kia toru hoki nga whatianga te teitei.

Me hanga ona haona ki nga koki e wha: kia kotahi te rakau o taua mea, o ona haona: me whakakikorua ano ki te parahi.

Me hanga ano ona takotoranga mo ona pungarehu, me ona koko pungarehu, me ona peihana, me ona matau, me ona oko ngarahu: me hanga ona mea katoa ki te parahi.

Me hanga ano tona pae kupenga ki te parahi, he mea ripekapeka; a me hanga ki runga i taua mea ripekapeka nga mowhiti parahi e wha ki ona pito e wha.

A me whakanoho taua mea ki raro i te awhi o te aata, ki raro iho, kia takapu ai taua mea ripekapeka ki waenganui o te aata.

Me hanga etahi amo mo te aata, he amo hitimi, ka whakakikorua hoki ki te parahi.

A ka kuhua nga amo ki nga mowhiti, hei nga taha e rua o te aata nga amo, hei amo.

Kia tuwhera kau a roto, me hanga e koe ki te papa: kia rite tau e hanga ai ki tera i whakakitea ki a koe ki te maunga.

Me hanga ano te marae o te tapenakara: hei te rinena miro pai he pa mo te taha ki te tonga whaka te tonga; kia kotahi rau whatianga te roa mo tetahi taha:

10 Ko nga pou kia rua tekau, ko nga turanga o aua mea kia rua tekau, me parahi; me hiriwa ia nga matau o nga pou, me nga awhi.

11 Me nga pa mo te taha ki te raki kia kotahi rau whatianga te roa, me nga pou e rua tekau, me nga turanga e rua tekau, he parahi: me nga matau hiriwa o nga pou, me nga awhi hiriwa.

12 Me nga pa mo te whanui o te marae ki te taha ki te hauauru kia rima tekau whatianga: kia kotahi tekau nga pou, me nga turanga kotahi tekau.

13 Kia rima tekau hoki whatianga te whanui o te marae ki te taha ki te rawhiti whaka te rawhiti.

14 Kia tekau ma rima whatianga nga pa o tetahi taha o te kuwaha, kia toru nga pou, kia toru hoki nga turanga.

15 Kia tekau ma rima hoki whatianga o nga pa o tera taha: kia toru nga pou, kia toru hoki nga turanga.

16 Kia rua tekau hoki whatianga o te pa mo te kuwaha o te marae, he puru, he papura, he ngangana, he rinena miro pai, he mea whakairo ki te ngira: kia wha hoki nga pou, kia wha hoki nga turanga.

17 Me whakawhaiawhi nga pou katoa o te marae a taka noa ki te hiriwa; me hiriwa nga matau, me parahi nga turanga.

18 Kia kotahi rau whatianga te roa o te marae, kia rima tekau hoki te whanui i nga wahi katoa, kia rima hoki whatianga te teitei, ki te rinena miro pai, me parahi hoki nga turanga.

19 Me parahi nga oko katoa o te tapenakara mo nga mahi katoa o reira, nga titi katoa o reira, me nga titi katoa o te marae.

20 Me whakahau ano e koe nga tama a Iharaira kia kawea mai ki a koe he hinu oriwa, he mea parakore, he mea tuki, mo te whakamarama, kia ka tonu ai te rama.

21 Me whakapai e Arona ratou ko ana tama taua mea i roto i te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, i waho o te arai e iri ana i mua mai o te whakaaturanga, i te ahiahi a tae noa ki te ata, ki te aroaro o Ihowa; hei tikanga tenei mo ake tonu atu, ma o rato u whakatupuranga, mo nga tama a Iharaira.

The Altar of Burnt Offering(A)

27 “Build an altar(B) of acacia wood, three cubits[a] high; it is to be square, five cubits long and five cubits wide.[b] Make a horn(C) at each of the four corners, so that the horns and the altar are of one piece, and overlay the altar with bronze. Make all its utensils of bronze—its pots to remove the ashes, and its shovels, sprinkling bowls,(D) meat forks and firepans.(E) Make a grating for it, a bronze network, and make a bronze ring at each of the four corners of the network. Put it under the ledge of the altar so that it is halfway up the altar. Make poles of acacia wood for the altar and overlay them with bronze.(F) The poles are to be inserted into the rings so they will be on two sides of the altar when it is carried.(G) Make the altar hollow, out of boards. It is to be made just as you were shown(H) on the mountain.

The Courtyard(I)

“Make a courtyard(J) for the tabernacle. The south side shall be a hundred cubits[c] long and is to have curtains of finely twisted linen, 10 with twenty posts and twenty bronze bases and with silver hooks and bands on the posts. 11 The north side shall also be a hundred cubits long and is to have curtains, with twenty posts and twenty bronze bases and with silver hooks and bands on the posts.

12 “The west end of the courtyard shall be fifty cubits[d] wide and have curtains, with ten posts and ten bases. 13 On the east end, toward the sunrise, the courtyard shall also be fifty cubits wide. 14 Curtains fifteen cubits[e] long are to be on one side of the entrance, with three posts and three bases, 15 and curtains fifteen cubits long are to be on the other side, with three posts and three bases.

16 “For the entrance to the courtyard, provide a curtain(K) twenty cubits[f] long, of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen—the work of an embroiderer(L)—with four posts and four bases. 17 All the posts around the courtyard are to have silver bands and hooks, and bronze bases. 18 The courtyard shall be a hundred cubits long and fifty cubits wide,[g] with curtains of finely twisted linen five cubits[h] high, and with bronze bases. 19 All the other articles used in the service of the tabernacle, whatever their function, including all the tent pegs for it and those for the courtyard, are to be of bronze.

Oil for the Lampstand(M)

20 “Command the Israelites to bring you clear oil(N) of pressed olives for the light so that the lamps may be kept burning. 21 In the tent of meeting,(O) outside the curtain that shields the ark of the covenant law,(P) Aaron and his sons are to keep the lamps(Q) burning before the Lord from evening till morning. This is to be a lasting ordinance(R) among the Israelites for the generations to come.
