The Furnishings of the Tabernacle
37
📚And Bezaleel made the ark of acacia wood. Its length was two cubits and a half, its width a cubit and a half, and its height a cubit and a half. 2 📚And he overlaid it with pure gold both inside and outside, and made a gold molding for it all around. 3 And he cast four gold rings for it, to be set in its four corners, two rings on its one side, and two rings on its other side. 4 📚And he made poles of acacia wood, and overlaid them with gold. 5 📚And he put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark, to carry the ark.6 📚And he made the mercy seat of pure gold. Its length was two cubits and a half, and its width one cubit and a half. 7 📚And he made two gold cherubim. He made them hammered out of one piece, at both ends of the mercy seat; 8 one cherub at the one end, and another cherub at the other end. He made the cherubim of one piece with the mercy seat at both its ends. 9 📚And the cherubim had outspread wings over the ark, and their wings covered the mercy seat, with their faces toward each other. The faces of the cherubim were toward the mercy seat.
10 📚And he made the table of acacia wood. Its length was two cubits, its width a cubit, and its height a cubit and a half. 11 And he overlaid it with pure gold, and made for it a molding of gold all around. 12 He also made a rim for it the width of a hand all around, and made a gold molding for its border all around. 13 And he cast four gold rings for it, and put the rings at the four corners of its four legs. 14 The rings, the holders for the poles to carry the table, were close to the rim. 15 And to carry the table he made the poles of acacia wood, and overlaid them with gold. 16 📚And he made out of pure gold the utensils which were on the table, its dishes, and its spoons, and its pitchers for pouring out the drink offerings.
17 📚And he made the lampstand of pure gold. He made the lampstand of hammered work. Its base and its shaft, its cups, its buds and its flowers, were of one piece with it. 18 And six branches went out from its sides, three branches of the lampstand from one side of it, and three branches of the lampstand from the other side of it. 19 Three cups like almond blossoms, a bud and a flower were on one branch, and three cups like almond blossoms, a bud and a flower on another branch, and so throughout the six branches going out from the lampstand. 20 📚And on the lampstand were four cups like almond blossoms, its buds and its flowers. 21 📚And a bud was under the first pair of branches, and a bud under the second pair of branches, and a bud under the third pair of branches, for the six branches going out from it. 22 📚Their buds and their branches were of one piece with it. The whole of it was of one hammered work of pure gold.
23 📚And he made its seven lamps, and its snuffers, and its trays, of pure gold. 24 He made it and all of its utensils with a talent of pure gold.
25 📚And he made the incense altar of acacia wood. Its length was a cubit, and its width a cubit. It was square, and its height was two cubits. Its horns were of one piece with it. 26 And he overlaid it with pure gold, its top and its sides all around and its horns. He also made a gold molding for it all around. 27 And he made two rings of gold for it under its molding, on its two sides, on its opposite sides, to hold the poles with which to carry it. 28 And he made the poles of acacia wood, and overlaid them with gold.
29 📚And he made the holy anointing oil, and the pure fragrant incense of spices, the work of a perfumer.
