Exodus 25:1-11

1Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2“1Tell the sons of Israel to take a 2contribution for Me; 3from everyone whose heart moves him you shall take My 4contribution. 3This is the 5contribution which you are to take from them: gold, silver, and bronze, 467violet, purple, and scarlet material, fine linen, goat hair, 5rams’ skins dyed red, 8fine leather, acacia wood, 69oil for lighting, 10balsam oil for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense, 7onyx stones and setting stones for the 11ephod and for the 1213breastpiece. 8Have them 14construct a sanctuary for Me, 15so that I may dwell among them. 916According to all that I am going to show you as the pattern of the tabernacle and the pattern of all its furniture, so you shall construct it.

10“Now 17they shall construct an 18ark of acacia wood 19two and a half cubits 20long, one and a half cubits 21wide, and one and a half cubits 22high. 11You shall 23overlay it with pure gold, inside and out you shall overlay it, and you shall make a gold molding 24around it.
