Exodus 37:2-11

2He overlaid it with pure gold, both inside and out, and made a gold molding around it.

3He cast four gold rings for it and fastened them to its four feet, with two rings on one side and two rings on the other.

4Then he made poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold.

5And he inserted the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark to carry it.

6He made the atonement cover of pure gold—two and a half cubits long and a cubit and a half wide.

7Then he made two cherubim out of hammered gold at the ends of the cover.

8He made one cherub on one end and the second cherub on the other; at the two ends he made them of one piece with the cover.

9The cherubim had their wings spread upward, overshadowing the cover with them. The cherubim faced each other, looking toward the cover.

10They made the table of acacia wood—two cubits long, a cubit wide and a cubit and a half high.

11Then they overlaid it with pure gold and made a gold molding around it.
