And Yahuah spoke to Mosheh, saying,
2
“Speak to the sons of Yisra’el, that they take for Me an offering. From every ish whose heart moves him willingly, you shall take My offering.
3
And this is the offering that you shall take from them: gold, and silver, and bronze,
4
and blue, and purple, and scarlet thread, and fine linen, and goats’ hair,
5
and ram skins dyed red, and skins of tachashim, and acacia wood,
6
oil for the light, spices for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense,
7
onyx stones and stones for setting, for the ephod and for the breastpiece.
8
And they shall make for Me a sanctuary, and I will dwell in their midst.
9
According to all that I show you—the pattern of the Dwelling and the pattern of all its vessels—so you shall make it.
10
And they shall make an ark of acacia wood: two and a half cubits its length, one and a half cubits its width, and one and a half cubits its height.
11
And you shall overlay it with pure gold. Inside and outside you shall overlay it, and you shall make upon it a border of gold all around.
12
And you shall cast for it four rings of gold and place them upon its four feet: two rings on one side and two rings on its other side.
13
And you shall make poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold.
14
And you shall bring the poles into the rings upon the sides of the ark, to carry the ark by them.
15
The poles shall remain in the rings of the ark; they shall not be removed from it.
16
And you shall place into the ark the Testimony that I will give you.
17
And you shall make a covering of atonement of pure gold: two and a half cubits its length, and one and a half cubits its width.
18
And you shall make two keruvim of gold. Of hammered work you shall make them at the two ends of the covering of atonement.
19
And make one keruv at one end and one keruv at the other end. From the covering itself you shall make the keruvim upon its two ends.
20
And the keruvim shall spread their wings upward, covering over the covering with their wings, and their faces shall be toward one another. Toward the covering shall the faces of the keruvim be.
21
And you shall place the covering upon the ark from above, and into the ark you shall place the Testimony that I will give you.
22
And there I will meet with you, and I will speak with you from above the covering, from between the two keruvim that are upon the ark of the Testimony, all that I command you concerning the sons of Yisra’el.
23
And you shall make a table of acacia wood: two cubits its length, one cubit its width, and one and a half cubits its height.
24
And you shall overlay it with pure gold and make for it a border of gold all around.
25
And you shall make for it a rim a handbreadth wide all around, and you shall make a border of gold around its rim.
26
And you shall make for it four rings of gold and place the rings upon the four corners that are at its four legs.
27
Close to the rim shall the rings be, as houses for the poles to carry the table.
28
And you shall make the poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold, and the table shall be carried by them.
29
And you shall make its dishes, and its pans, and its jars, and its bowls with which drink offerings are poured. Of pure gold you shall make them.
30
And you shall place upon the table the bread of the Presence before My face continually.
31
And you shall make a menorah of pure gold. Of hammered work the menorah shall be made: its base, its shaft, its cups, its buds, and its blossoms shall be of one piece with it.
32
And six branches shall go out from its sides: three branches of the menorah from its one side, and three branches of the menorah from its other side.
33
Three cups shaped like almond blossoms on one branch, with bud and blossom, and three cups shaped like almond blossoms on the other branch, with bud and blossom; so for the six branches going out from the menorah.
34
And upon the menorah itself shall be four cups shaped like almond blossoms, with its buds and its blossoms.
35
And a bud shall be beneath two branches from it, and a bud beneath two branches from it, and a bud beneath two branches from it, for the six branches going out from the menorah.
36
Their buds and their branches shall be of one piece with it. All of it shall be one hammered work of pure gold.
37
And you shall make its seven lamps, and they shall cause its lamps to go up, that they may give light toward the space before its face.
38
And its tongs and its firepans shall be of pure gold.
39
From one talent of pure gold shall it be made, with all these vessels.
40
And see that you make them according to their pattern that was shown to you on the mountain.
