37:1 Now Bezalel made the ark of acacia wood; its length measured two and a half cubits, and its width one and a half cubits, and its height one and a half cubits; |
37:2 and he overlaid it with pure gold inside and out, and made a gold molding for it all around. |
37:3 He cast four rings of gold for it on its four feet; even two rings on one side of it, and two rings on the other side of it. |
37:4 He made poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold. |
37:5 He put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark, to carry it. |
37:6 He made a mercy seat of pure gold, two and a half cubits long and one and a half cubits wide. |
37:7 He made two cherubim of gold; he made them of hammered work at the two ends of the mercy seat; |
37:8 one cherub at the one end and one cherub at the other end; he made the cherubim of one piece with the mercy seat at the two ends. |
37:9 The cherubim had their wings spread upward, covering the mercy seat with their wings, with their faces toward each other; the faces of the cherubim faced toward the mercy seat. |
37:10 Then he made the table of acacia wood, two cubits long and a cubit wide and one and a half cubits high. |
37:11 He overlaid it with pure gold, and made a gold molding for it all around. |
37:12 He made a rim for it of a handbreadth all around, and made a gold molding for its rim all around. |
37:13 He cast four gold rings for it and put the rings on the four corners that located on its four feet. |
37:14 Close by the rim were the rings, the holders for the poles to carry the table. |
37:15 He made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold, to carry the table. |
37:16 He made the utensils which he placed on the table, its dishes and its pans and its bowls and its jars, with which to pour out drink offerings, of pure gold. |
37:17 Then he made the lampstand of pure gold. He made the lampstand of hammered work, its base and its shaft; its cups, its bulbs and its flowers appeared of one piece with it. |
37:18 There appeared six branches going out of its sides; three branches of the lampstand from the one side of it and three branches of the lampstand from the other side of it; |
37:19 three cups shaped like almond blossoms, a bulb and a flower in one branch, and three cups shaped like almond blossoms, a bulb and a flower in the other branch--so for the six branches going out of the lampstand. |
37:20 In the lampstand there appeared four cups shaped like almond blossoms, its bulbs and its flowers; |
37:21 and a bulb appeared under the first pair of branches coming out of it, and a bulb under the second pair of branches coming out of it, and a bulb under the third pair of branches coming out of it, for the six branches coming out of the lampstand. |
37:22 Their bulbs and their branches consisted of one piece with it; the whole of it consisted of a single hammered work of pure gold. |
37:23 He made its seven lamps with its snuffers and its trays of pure gold. |
37:24 He made it and all its utensils from a talent of pure gold. |
37:25 Then he made the altar of incense of acacia wood: a cubit long and a cubit wide, square, and two cubits high; its horns consisted of one piece with it. |
37:26 He overlaid it with pure gold, its top and its sides all around, and its horns; and he made a gold molding for it all around. |
37:27 He made two golden rings for it under its molding, on its two sides--on opposite sides--as holders for poles with which to carry it. |
37:28 He made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold. |
37:29 And he made the holy anointing oil and the pure, fragrant incense of spices, the work of a perfumer. |
