CHAP. 37.


1 And Bezaleel made the ark of shittim 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: 2 And he overlaid it with pure gold within and without, and made a crown of gold for it all around. 3 And he cast for it four rings of gold, to be set by its four corners; even two rings upon its one side, and two rings upon its other side 4 And he made staffs of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold. 5 And he put the staffs into the rings by the sides of the ark, to bear the ark. 6 And he made the mercy seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half was the length of it, and one cubit and a half the breadth of it. 7 And he made two cherubim of gold, beaten out of one piece he made them, on the two ends of the mercy seat; [2] 8 One cherub on the end on this side, and another cherub on the other end on that side: out of the mercy seat made he the cherubim on its two ends. [3] [4] 9 And the cherubim spread out their wings on high, and covered with their wings over the mercy seat, with their faces one to another; even toward the mercy seat were the faces of the cherubim.
10 And he made the table of shittim wood: two cubits was its length, and a cubit its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height: 11 And he overlaid it with pure gold, and made for it a crown of gold all around. 12 Also he made for it a border of an handbreadth all around; and made a crown of gold for its border all around. 13 And he cast for it four rings of gold, and put the rings upon the four corners that were in its four feet. 14 Close to the border were the rings, the places for the staffs to bear the table. 15 And he made the staffs of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold, to bear the table. 16 And he made the vessels which were upon the table, its dishes, and its spoons, and its bowls, and its covers to cover with, of pure gold. [5] 17 And he made the lampstand of pure gold: of beaten work he made the lampstand; its shaft, and its branch, its bowls, its knobs, and its flowers, were of the same: 18 And six branches proceeding from its sides; three branches of the lampstand from the one side of it, and three branches of the lampstand from its other side: 19 Three bowls made after the fashion of almonds in one branch, a knob and a flower; and three bowls made like almonds in another branch, a knob and a flower: so throughout the six branches going out of the lampstand. 20 And in the lampstand were four bowls made like almonds, its knobs, and its flowers: 21 And a knob under two branches of the same, and a knob under two branches of the same, and a knob under two branches of the same, according to the six branches going out of it. 22 Their knobs and their branches were of the same: all of it was one beaten work of pure gold. 23 And he made its seven lamps, and its snuffers, and its snuffdishes, of pure gold. 24 Of a talent of pure gold he made it, and all its vessels.
25 And he made the incense altar of shittim wood: the length of it was a cubit, and the breadth of it a cubit; it was foursquare; and two cubits was the height of it; the horns of it were of the same. 26 And he overlaid it with pure gold, both the top of it, and its sides all around, and its horns: also he made for it a crown of gold all around. 27 And he made two rings of gold for it under its crown, by its two corners, upon its two sides, to be places for the staffs to bear it with. 28 And he made the staffs of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold. 29 And he made the holy anointing oil, and the pure incense of sweet spices, according to the work of the perfumer.

CHAP. 38.


1 And he made the altar of burnt offering of shittim wood: five cubits was the length of it, and five cubits the breadth of it; it was foursquare; and its height was three cubits. 2 And he made its horns on its four corners; its horns were of the same: and he overlaid it with brass. 3 And he made all the vessels of the altar, the pots, and the shovels, and the basins, and the fleshhooks, and the firepans: all the vessels of it he made of brass. 4 And he made for the altar a brasen grate of network under its rim beneath to the midst of it. 5 And he cast four rings for the four ends of the grate of brass, to be places for the staffs. 6 And he made the staffs of shittim wood, and overlaid them with brass. 7 And he put the staffs into the rings
