27 “You will make the altar of acacia wood;+ it will be five cubits* long and five cubits wide. The altar should be square and three cubits high.+ 2 You will make horns+ on its four corners; the horns will be part of the altar, and you will overlay the altar with copper.+ 3 You will make buckets for clearing away its ashes,* along with shovels, bowls, forks, and fire holders, and you will make all its utensils of copper.+ 4 You will make a grating for the altar, a network of copper, and on the network four rings of copper at its four corners. 5 You will set it down below the rim of the altar, and the network will extend partway down into the altar. 6 You will make poles of acacia wood for the altar and overlay them with copper. 7 The poles will be inserted into the rings so that the poles are on the two sides of the altar when it is carried.+ 8 You will make the altar in the form of a hollow chest of planks. It should be made just as He showed you on the mountain.+

10 You are to anoint the altar of burnt offering and all its utensils and sanctify the altar, so that it will become a most holy altar.+
