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 one end and one cherub at the other end. At each end, he made a cherub of one piece with the mercy seat.
37:9  They had wings spread out. They faced each other and covered the mercy seat with their wings. The faces of the cherubim were looking toward the mercy seat.

37:19  There were three cups shaped like almond blossoms, each with a calyx and petals, on the first branch, and three cups shaped like almond blossoms, each with a calyx and petals, on the next branch. It was this way for the six branches that extended from the lampstand.
37:20  On the lampstand shaft there were four cups shaped like almond blossoms with its calyxes and petals.
