1 Bezalel built an altar of acacia wood for offering sacrifices. It was two and a quarter metres square and one and a third metres high
2 with each of its four corners sticking up like the horn of a bull, and it was completely covered with bronze.
3 The equipment for the altar was also made of bronze—the pans for the hot ashes, the shovels, the meat forks, and the fire pans.
4 Half-way up the altar he built a ledge around it and covered the bottom half of the altar with a decorative bronze grating.
5 Then he attached a bronze ring beneath the ledge at the four corners to put the poles through.
6 He covered two acacia wood poles with bronze and
7 put them through the rings for carrying the altar, which was shaped like an open box.
