Exodus 25:10-16

10“They are to make an ark of acacia wood, forty-five inches long, twenty-seven inches wide, and twenty-seven inches high.

11Overlay it with pure gold; overlay it both inside and out. Also make a gold molding all around it.

12Cast four gold rings for it and place them on its four feet, two rings on one side and two rings on the other side.

13Make poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold.

14Insert the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark in order to carry the ark with them.

15The poles are to remain in the rings of the ark; they must not be removed from it.

16Put the tablets of the testimony that I will give you into the ark.
