18 La longitud del atrio será de cien codos, y la anchura cincuenta por un lado y cincuenta por el otro, y la altura de cinco codos: [sus cortinas] de lino torcido, y sus basas de metal.

19 Todos los vasos del tabernáculo en todo su servicio, y todos sus clavos, y todos los clavos del atrio, serán de metal.

20 Y tú mandarás á los hijos de Israel que te traigan aceite puro de olivas, molido, para la luminaria, para hacer arder continuamente las lámparas.

21 En el tabernáculo del testimonio, afuera del velo que está delante del testimonio, las pondrá en orden Aarón y sus hijos, delante de Jehová desde la tarde hasta la mañana, como estatuto perpetuo de los hijos de Israel por sus generaciones.
