New American Standard Bible
The Bronze Altar
27 “Now you shall make (A)the altar of acacia wood, [a]five cubits long and five cubits wide; the altar shall be square, and its height shall be [b]three cubits. 2 You shall make (B)its horns on its four corners; its horns shall be of one piece with it, and you shall overlay it with [c]bronze. 3 And you shall make its pails for removing its ashes, and its shovels, its basins, its forks, and its firepans; you shall make all its utensils of bronze. 4 You shall also make for it a grating, a netting of bronze, and on the netting you shall make four bronze rings [d]at its four corners. 5 And you shall put it under the ledge of the altar, so that the netting will reach halfway up the altar. 6 You shall also make carrying poles for the altar, poles of acacia wood and overlay them with bronze. 7 Its poles shall be inserted into the rings, so that the poles will be on the two sides of the altar (C)when it is carried. 8 You shall make it hollow with planks; (D)as it was shown to you on the mountain, so they shall make it.
