Exode 37

¹ And Bezaleel maketh the ark of shittim wood, two cubits and a half its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height ;

² and he overlayeth it with pure gold within and without, and maketh for it a wreath of gold round about ;

³ and he casteth for it four rings of gold, on its four feet, even two rings on its one side, and two rings on its second side ;

⁴ and he maketh staves of shittim wood, and overlayeth them with gold,

⁵ and he bringeth in the staves into the rings, by the sides of the ark, to bear the ark.

⁶ And he maketh a mercy-seat of pure gold, two cubits and a half its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth ;

⁷ and he maketh two cherubs of gold, of beaten work he hath made them, at the two ends of the mercy-seat ;

⁸ one cherub at the end on this [side], and one cherub at the end on that, out of the mercy-seat he hath made the cherubs, at its two ends ;

⁹ and the cherubs are spreading out wings on high, covering over the mercy-seat with their wings, and their faces [are] one towards another ; towards the mercy-seat have the faces of the cherubs been.

¹⁰ And he maketh the table of shittim wood ; two cubits its length, and a cubit its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height,

¹¹ and overlayeth it with pure gold, and maketh for it a wreath of gold round about.

¹² And he maketh for it a border of a handbreadth round about, and maketh a wreath of gold for its border round about ;

¹³ and he casteth for it four rings of gold, and putteth the rings on the four corners which [are] to its four feet ;

¹⁴ over-against the border have the rings been, places for staves to bear the table.

¹⁵ And he maketh the staves of shittim wood, and overlayeth them with gold, to bear the table ;

¹⁶ and he maketh the vessels which [are] upon the table, its dishes, and its bowls, and its cups, and the cups by which they pour out, of pure gold.

¹⁷ And he maketh the candlestick of pure gold ; of beaten work he hath made the candlestick, its base, and its branch, its calyxes, its knops, and its flowers, have been of the same ;

¹⁸ and six branches are coming out of its sides, three branches of the candlestick out of its one side, and three branches of the candlestick out of its second side ;

¹⁹ three calyxes, made like almonds, in the one branch, a knop and a flower ; and three calyxes, made like almonds, in another branch, a knop and a flower ; so to the six branches which are coming out of the candlestick.

²⁰ And in the candlestick [are] four calyxes, made like almonds, its knops, and its flowers,

²¹ and a knop under the two branches of the same, and a knop under the two branches of the same, and a knop under the two branches of the same, [are] to the six branches which are coming out of it ;

²² their knops and their branches have been of the same ; all of it one beaten work of pure gold.

²³ And he maketh its seven lamps, and its snuffers, and its snuff-dishes, of pure gold ;

²⁴ of a talent of pure gold he hath made it, and all its vessels.

²⁵ And he maketh the perfume-altar of shittim wood ; a cubit its length, and a cubit its breadth (square), and two cubits its height ; its horns have been of the same ;

²⁶ and he overlayeth it with pure gold, its top and its sides round about, and its horns ; and he maketh for it a wreath of gold round about ;

²⁷ and two rings of gold he hath made for it under its wreath, at its two corners, at its two sides, for places for staves to bear it with them.

²⁸ And he maketh the staves of shittim wood, and overlayeth them with gold ;

²⁹ and he maketh the holy anointing oil, and the pure spice-perfume — work of a compounder.
