Exodus 25:23-40

23“1You shall also make a table of acacia wood, 2two cubits 3long and one cubit 4wide, and one and a half cubits 5high. 24You shall overlay it with pure gold and make a gold 6border around it. 25And you shall make for it a rim of a 7hand width around it; and you shall make a gold border for the rim around it. 26You shall also make four gold rings for it and put rings on the four corners which are on its four legs. 27The rings shall be close to the rim, as holders for the poles to carry the table. 28And you shall make the poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold, so that with them the table may be carried. 29You shall also make its 8dishes, its pans, its jars, and its libation bowls with which to pour drink offerings; you shall make them of pure gold. 30And you shall set 9the bread of the 10Presence on the table before Me continually.

31“11Then you shall make a lampstand of pure gold. The lampstand, its base and its shaft, are to be made of hammered work; its cups, its 12bulbs, and its flowers shall be of one piece with it. 3213Six branches shall go out from its sides; three branches of the lampstand from its one side and three branches of the lampstand from its 14other side. 3315Three cups shall be shaped like almond blossoms on the one branch, a 16bulb and a flower, and three cups shaped like almond blossoms on the 17other branch, a 18bulb and a flower--the same for six branches going out from the lampstand; 34and 19on the lampstand four cups shaped like almond blossoms, its 20bulbs and its flowers. 3521A 22bulb shall be under the first pair of branches coming out of it, and a 23bulb under the second pair of branches coming out of it, and a 24bulb under the third pair of branches coming out of it, for the six branches coming out of the lampstand. 3625Their 26bulbs and their branches shall be of one piece with it; all of it shall be one piece of hammered work of pure gold. 37Then you shall make its lamps seven in number; and 27they shall 28mount its lamps so as to shed light on the space in front of it. 38Its tongs and its trays shall be of pure gold. 39It shall be made from a 29talent of pure gold, with all these utensils. 4030See that you make them 31by the pattern for them, which was shown to you on the mountain.
