Exodus 25

1 And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Speak to the sons of Israel, and they will take a raised-offering for Me. You take My raised-offering from every man whose heart impels him. 3 And this is the raised-offering which you take from them: gold, and silver, and bronze, 4 and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and linen, and goats’ hair, 5 and rams’ skins made red, and tachashim skins, and shittim wood, 6 oil for the light, spices for the anointing oil, and for the incense of the spices, 7 shoham stones, and stones for setting for an ephod, and for a breastplate. 8 And they will make a sanctuary for Me, and I will stay in their middle. 9 According to all that which I am showing you, the pattern of the Dwelling Place, and the pattern of all its vessels, even so you make it. 10 And they will make an ark of shittim wood. Two cubits and a half its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height. 11 And you overlay it with pure gold, you overlay it inside and outside, and you make a ring of gold on it all around. 12 And you cast four rings of gold for it, and put them on its four feet, even two rings on its one side, and two rings on its second side. 13 And you make poles of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, 14 and bring the poles into the rings on the sides of the Ark, to carry the Ark by them. 15 The poles will be in the rings of the Ark, they will not be turned aside from it. 16 And you put the Testimony which I give to you into the Ark. 17 And you make a propitiatory covering of pure gold, two cubits and a half its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth. 18 And you make two cherubs of gold. You make them beaten work at the two ends of the propitiatory covering. 19 And make one cherub at the end on this side and one cherub at the end on that side. At the propitiatory covering you make the cherubs on its two ends. 20 And the cherubs will be spreading out wings on high, covering over the propitiatory covering with their wings, and their faces are toward one another—the faces of the cherubs are toward the propitiatory covering. 21 And you put the propitiatory covering on the Ark above, and you put the Testimony which I give to you into the Ark. 22 And I meet with you there, and speak with you from off the propitiatory covering (from between the two cherubs, which are on the Ark of the Testimony) all that which I command you concerning the sons of Israel. 23 And you make a table of shittim wood, two cubits its length, and a cubit its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height, 24 and overlay it with pure gold, and make a crown of gold for it all around, 25 and make a border of a handbreadth for it all around, and make a crown of gold for its border all around. 26 And you make four rings of gold for it, and put the rings on the four corners, which are at its four feet. 27 Close by the border will be the rings for places for poles to carry the table. 28 And you make the poles of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, and the table will be carried with them. 29 And you make its dishes, and its bowls, and its covers, and its cups, with which they pour out. You make them of pure gold. 30 And you put Bread of the Presentation on the table before Me continually. 31 And you make a lampstand of pure gold. The lampstand will be made of beaten work. Its base, and its branch, its calyxes, its knobs, and its flowers will be of the same. 32 And six branches will be coming out of its sides, three branches of the lampstand out of the first side, and three branches of the lampstand out of the second side. 33 Three calyxes made like almonds in one branch, a knob and a flower, and three calyxes made like almonds in one branch, a knob and a flower—so for the six branches which will be coming out from the lampstand. 34 And in the lampstand will be four calyxes made like almonds, its knobs and its flowers. 35 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, for the six branches which will be coming out of the lampstand. 36 Their knobs and their branches will be of the same, all of it one beaten work of pure gold. 37 and you make its seven lamps, and one will caused its lamps to go up, and it will give light over and beyond its front. 38 And its snuffers and its snuff dishes will be of pure gold. 39 He will make it of a talent of pure gold, with all these vessels. 40 Now see and make them by their pattern which you will be shown on the mountain.”
