Exodus 25:7-27

7onyx stones and setting stones for the ephod and for the breastplate.

8“Have them make a Sanctuary for Me, so that I may dwell among them.

9You are to make it all precisely according to everything that I show you—the pattern of the Tabernacle and the pattern of all the furnishings within—just so you must make it.

10“Now they are to make an Ark of acacia wood, two and a half cubits in length, one and a half cubits wide, and a cubit and a half high.

11You are to overlay it with pure gold, inside and out, and make a crown of gold around it.

12You are to cast four rings of gold for it, and place them in its four feet. Two rings will be on one side, and two rings on the other side.

13Also make poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold.

14You are to put the poles into the rings on the sides of the Ark, in order to carry the Ark.

15The poles are to remain in the rings of the Ark, and not be taken from it.

16You are to put the Testimony, which I will give you, into the Ark.

17“Then you are to make an atonement cover of pure gold, two and a half cubits long, one cubit and a half wide.

18Also make two cheruvim of gold, from hammered work, at the two ends of the atonement cover.

19Make one cheruv at one end and one cheruv at the other end. Of one piece with the atonement cover you are to make the cheruvim at its two ends.

20The cheruvim are to spread out their wings above, shielding the atonement cover with their wings, each facing its companion. The faces of the cheruvim are to be turned toward the atonement cover.

21You are to put the atonement cover on top of the Ark, and inside the Ark you will put the Testimony that I will give you.

22“I will meet with you there. I will speak with you from above the atonement cover—from between the two cheruvim that are on the Ark of the Testimony—about all that I will command you, for Bnei-Yisrael.

23“You will make a table of acacia wood, two cubits long, one cubit wide, and a cubit and a half high.

24You are to overlay it with pure gold, and make a crown of gold around it.

25Make a border a single handwidth wide around it and a golden crown for the border all around.

26Also make four gold rings for it, and put the rings in the four corners that are on its four feet.

27The rings are to be close to the borders, as holders for the poles to carry the table.
