1
And Betzalel made the 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.
2
And he overlaid it with pure gold inside and outside, and made for it a border of gold all around.
3
And he cast for it four rings of gold upon its four feet: two rings upon one side and two rings upon its other side.
4
And he made poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold.
5
And he brought the poles into the rings upon the sides of the ark, to carry the ark.
6
And he made the covering of atonement of pure gold: two and a half cubits its length, and one and a half cubits its width.
7
And he made two keruvim of gold. Of hammered work he made them at the two ends of the covering of atonement,
8
one keruv at one end and one keruv at the other end. From the covering itself he made the keruvim at its two ends.
9
And the keruvim spread their wings upward, covering over the covering with their wings, and their faces were toward one another. Toward the covering were the faces of the keruvim.
10
And he made the table of acacia wood: two cubits its length, one cubit its width, and one and a half cubits its height.
11
And he overlaid it with pure gold and made for it a border of gold all around.
12
And he made for it a rim a handbreadth wide all around, and made a border of gold around its rim.
13
And he cast for it four rings of gold and placed the rings upon the four corners that were at its four legs.
14
Close to the rim were the rings, as houses for the poles to carry the table.
15
And he made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold, to carry the table.
16
And he made the vessels that were upon the table—its dishes, and its pans, and its bowls, and its jars with which drink offerings were poured—of pure gold.
17
And he made the menorah of pure gold. Of hammered work he made the menorah: its base, its shaft, its cups, its buds, and its blossoms were of one piece with it.
18
And six branches went out from its sides: three branches of the menorah from its one side, and three branches of the menorah from its other side.
19
Three cups shaped like almond blossoms were on one branch, with bud and blossom, and three cups shaped like almond blossoms on another branch, with bud and blossom; so for the six branches going out from the menorah.
20
And upon the menorah itself were four cups shaped like almond blossoms, with its buds and its blossoms.
21
And a bud was 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 it.
22
Their buds and their branches were of one piece with it. All of it was one hammered work of pure gold.
23
And he made its seven lamps, and its tongs, and its firepans, of pure gold.
24
From one talent of pure gold he made it, with all its vessels.
25
And he made the altar of incense of acacia wood: one cubit its length and one cubit its width, square, and two cubits its height. Its horns were of one piece with it.
26
And he overlaid it with pure gold—its top, and its sides all around, and its horns—and made for it a border of gold all around.
27
And he made for it two rings of gold beneath its border, upon its two sides, upon its two opposite sides, as houses for the poles with which to carry it.
28
And he made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold.
29
And he made the holy anointing oil and the pure fragrant incense, the work of a perfumer.
