37:1   Bezalel built a chest of acacia wood forty-five inches long, twenty-seven inches wide, and twenty-seven inches high.

37:2   He covered it inside and out with pure gold and put a gold edging around the top.

37:3   He made four gold rings and fastened one of them to each of the four legs of the chest.

37:4   Then he made two poles of acacia wood, covered them with gold,

37:5   and put them through the rings, so the chest could be carried by the poles.

37:6   The entire lid of the chest, which was also covered with pure gold, was the place of mercy.

37:7   On each of the two ends of the chest he made a winged creature of hammered gold. They faced each other, and their wings covered the place of mercy.

37:10   Bezalel built a table of acacia wood thirty-six inches long, eighteen inches wide, and twenty-seven inches high.

37:11   He covered it with pure gold and put a gold edging around it with a border three inches wide.

37:12   (SEE 37:11)

37:13   He made four gold rings and attached one to each of the legs

37:14   near the edging. The poles for carrying the table were placed through these rings

37:15   and were made of acacia wood covered with gold.

37:16   Everything that was to be set on the table was made of pure gold--the bowls, plates, jars, and cups for wine offerings.

37:17   Bezalel made a lampstand of pure gold. The whole lampstand, including its decorative flowers, was made from a single piece of hammered gold,

37:18   with three branches on each of its two sides.

37:19   There were three decorative almond blossoms on each branch

37:20   and four on the stem.

37:21   There was also a blossom where each pair of branches came out from the stem.

37:22   The lampstand, including its branches and decorative flowers, was made from a single piece of hammered pure gold.

37:23   The lamp and its equipment, including the tongs and trays, were made of about seventy-five pounds of pure gold.

37:24   (SEE 37:23)

37:25   For burning incense, Bezalel made an altar of acacia wood. It was eighteen inches square and thirty-six inches high with each of its four corners sticking up like the horn of a bull.

37:26   He covered it with pure gold and put a gold edging around it.

37:27   Then below the edging on opposite sides he attached two gold rings through which he put the poles for carrying the altar.

37:28   These poles were also made of acacia wood and covered with gold.

37:29   Bezalel mixed the oil for dedication and the sweet-smelling spices for the incense.
