Exodus 37

The Ark of the Covenant

The Ark of the Covenant

1And Bezalel made the ark of acacia wood : two cubits and a half was the length of it , and a cubit and a half the breadth of it , and a cubit and a half the height of it . 2And he overlaid it with pure gold within and without , and made a crown of gold to it round about . 3And he cast for it four rings of gold , in the four feet thereof; even two rings on the one side of it , and two rings on the other side of it . 4And he made staves of acacia wood , and overlaid them with gold . 5And he put the staves into the rings on the sides of the ark, to bear the ark. 6And he made a mercy-seat of pure gold : two cubits and a half was the length thereof , and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof . 7And he made two cherubim of gold ; of beaten work made he them , at the two ends of the mercy-seat; 8one cherub at the one end , and one cherub at the other end : of one piece with the mercy-seat made he the cherubim at the two ends thereof. 9And the cherubim spread out their wings on high , covering the mercy-seat with their wings , with their faces one to another ; toward the mercy-seat were the faces of the cherubim .

The Table for the Bread of the Presence

10And he made the table of acacia wood : two cubits was the length thereof , and a cubit the breadth thereof , and a cubit and a half the height thereof . 11And he overlaid it with pure gold , and made thereto a crown of gold round about . 12And he made unto it a border of a handbreadth round about , and made a golden crown to the border thereof round about . 13And he cast for it four rings of gold , and put the rings in the four corners that were on the four feet thereof. 14Close by the border were the rings , the places for the staves to bear the table . 15And he made the staves of acacia wood , and overlaid them with gold , to bear the table . 16And he made the vessels which were upon the table , the dishes thereof , and the spoons thereof , and the bowls thereof , and the flagons thereof , wherewith to pour out , of pure gold .

The Golden Lampstand

17And he made the candlestick of pure gold : of beaten work made he the candlestick , even its base , and its shaft ; its cups , its knops , and its flowers , were of one piece with it . 18And there were six branches going out of the sides thereof ; three branches of the candlestick out of the one side thereof , and three branches of the candlestick out of the other side thereof : 19three cups made like almond-blossoms in one branch , a knop and a flower , and three cups made like almond-blossoms in the other branch , a knop and a flower : so for the six branches going out of the candlestick . 20And in the candlestick were four cups made like almond-blossoms, the knops thereof, and the flowers thereof; 21and a knop under two branches of one piece with it , and a knop under two branches of one piece with it , and a knop under two branches of one piece with it , for the six branches going out of it . 22Their knops and their branches were of one piece with it : the whole of it was one beaten work of pure gold . 23And he made the lamps thereof, seven , and the snuffers thereof, and the snuffdishes thereof, of pure gold . 24Of a talent of pure gold made he it , and all the vessels thereof .

The Altar of Incense

25And he made the altar of incense of acacia wood : a cubit was the length thereof , and a cubit the breadth thereof , foursquare ; and two cubits was the height thereof ; the horns thereof were of one piece with it . 26And he overlaid it with pure gold , the top thereof , and the sides thereof round about , and the horns of it : and he made unto it a crown of gold round about . 27And he made for it two golden rings under the crown thereof , upon the two ribs thereof , upon the two sides of it , for places for staves wherewith to bear it . 28And he made the staves of acacia wood , and overlaid them with gold . 29And he made the holy anointing oil , and the pure incense of sweet spices , after the art of the perfumer .
