Exodus 25:31-40

31“Make a lampstand of pure, hammered gold. Make the entire lampstand and its decorations of one piece—the base, center stem, lamp cups, buds, and petals.

32Make it with six branches going out from the center stem, three on each side.

33Each of the six branches will have three lamp cups shaped like almond blossoms, complete with buds and petals.

34Craft the center stem of the lampstand with four lamp cups shaped like almond blossoms, complete with buds and petals.

35There will also be an almond bud beneath each pair of branches where the six branches extend from the center stem.

36The almond buds and branches must all be of one piece with the center stem, and they must be hammered from pure gold.

37Then make the seven lamps for the lampstand, and set them so they reflect their light forward.

38The lamp snuffers and trays must also be made of pure gold.

39You will need 75 pounds of pure gold for the lampstand and its accessories.

40“Be sure that you make everything according to the pattern I have shown you here on the mountain.
