[11](#verse-11) Likewise for the length of the north side, there shall be hangings one hundred cubits long, and its pillars twenty, and their sockets twenty, of bronze; the hooks of the pillars, and their fillets, of silver.

[16](#verse-16) For the gate of the court shall be a screen of twenty cubits, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, the work of the embroiderer; their pillars four, and their sockets four.

[17](#verse-17) All the pillars of the court around shall be filleted with silver; their hooks of silver, and their sockets of bronze.

[18](#verse-18) The length of the court shall be one hundred cubits, and the width fifty throughout, and the height five cubits, of fine twined linen, and their sockets of bronze.

[19](#verse-19) All the instruments of the tabernacle in all its service, and all its pins, and all the pins of the court, shall be of bronze.

[20](#verse-20) “You shall command the children of Israel, that they bring to you pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually.
