Exodus 37:2-11

2He overlaid it with pure gold, both inside and out, and made a gold molding around it. 3And he cast four gold rings for its four feet, two rings on one side and two on the other. 4Then he made poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold. 5He inserted the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark in order to carry it.

6He constructed a mercy seat of pure gold, two and a half cubits long and a cubit and a half wide.1 7He made two cherubim of hammered gold at the ends of the mercy seat, 8one cherub on one end and one on the other, all made from one piece of gold. 9And the cherubim had wings that spread upward, overshadowing the mercy seat. The cherubim faced each other, looking toward the mercy seat.

10He also made the table of acacia wood two cubits long, a cubit wide, and a cubit and a half high.2 11He overlaid it with pure gold and made a gold molding around it.
