37:1 And Bezalel made the ark of acacia wood, two and a half cubits its length and a cubit and a half its width and a cubit and a half its height.
37:2 And he overlaid it with pure gold inside and outside, and he made for it a gold molding all around.
37:3 And he cast for it four gold rings on its four feet; and two rings were on its one side, and two rings were on its second side.
37:4 And he made poles of acacia wood, and he overlaid them with gold.
37:5 And he put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark to carry the ark.
37:6 And he made an atonement cover of pure gold, two and a half cubits its length and a cubit and a half its width.
37:7 And he made two cherubim of gold; he made them of hammered work at the two ends of the atonement cover.
37:8 One cherub was at one end, and one cherub was at the other end of the atonement cover; he made the cherubim at its two ends.
37:9 And the cherubim were with outspread wings above, covering with their wings over the atonement cover and facing each other; the faces of the cherubim were toward the atonement cover.
37:10 And he made the table of acacia wood, two cubits its length and a cubit its width and a cubit and a half its height.
37:11 And he overlaid it with pure gold, and he made for it a gold molding all around.
37:12 And he made for it a handbreadth rim all around, and he made a gold molding for its rim all around.
37:13 And he cast for it four gold rings, and he put the rings on the four corners where its four legs were.
37:14 The rings were near the rim as holders for the poles to carry the table.
37:15 And he made the poles of acacia wood, and he overlaid them with gold to carry the table.
37:16 And he made the vessels that were on the table—its plates and its ladles, and its bowls and its pitchers with which libations were poured—of pure gold.
37:17 And he made the lampstand of pure gold; he made the lampstand of hammered work—its base and its branch, its cups, its buds, and its blossoms were all part of it.
37:18 And six branches were going out from its sides, three branches of the lampstand from its one side and three branches of the lampstand from its second side.
37:19 Three almond-flower cups were on the one branch with a bud and a blossom, and three almond-flower cups were on the one branch with a bud and a blossom—likewise for the six branches going out from the lampstand.
37:20 And on the lampstand were four almond-flower cups, with its buds and its blossoms.
37:21 And a bud was under the two branches that came from it, and a bud under the two branches from it, and a bud under the two branches from it, likewise for the six branches coming out from the lampstand.
37:22 Their buds and their branches were from it, all of it one piece of pure gold, hammered work.
37:23 And he made its seven lamps and its snuffers and its fire pans of pure gold.
37:24 He made it from a talent of pure gold and all its pieces of equipment.
37:25 And he made the incense altar of acacia wood, a cubit its length and a cubit its width—a square—and two cubits its height; its horns were of one piece with it.
37:26 And he overlaid it with pure gold—its top and its sides all around and its horns—and he made for it a gold molding all around.
37:27 And he made for it two gold rings under its molding on two opposite sides as holders for poles to carry it with them.
37:28 And he made the poles of acacia wood, and he overlaid them with gold.
37:29 And he made the holy anointing oil and the pure fragrant incense—work of a perfumer.
