Exodus 37:9-20

9They had wings spread out. They faced each other and covered the mercy seat with their wings. The faces of the cherubim were looking toward the mercy seat.

10He constructed the table of acacia wood, thirty-six inches long, eighteen inches wide, and twenty-seven inches high.

11He overlaid it with pure gold and made a gold molding all around it.

12He made a three-inch frame all around it and made a gold molding all around its frame.

13He cast four gold rings for it and attached the rings to the four corners at its four legs.

14The rings were next to the frame as holders for the poles to carry the table.

15He made the poles for carrying the table from acacia wood and overlaid them with gold.

16He also made the utensils that would be on the table out of pure gold: its plates and cups, as well as its bowls and pitchers for pouring drink offerings.

17Then he made the lampstand out of pure hammered gold. He made it all of one piece: its base and shaft, its ornamental cups, and its buds and petals.

18Six branches extended from its sides, three branches of the lampstand from one side and three branches of the lampstand from the other side.

19There were three cups shaped like almond blossoms, each with a bud and petals, on one branch, and three cups shaped like almond blossoms, each with a bud and petals, on the next branch. It was this way for the six branches that extended from the lampstand.

20There were four cups shaped like almond blossoms on the lampstand shaft along with its buds and petals.
