Exodus 25
25:1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
25:2 'Speak unto the children of Israel, that they take for Me an offering; of every man whose heart maketh him willing ye shall take My offering.
25:3 And this is the offering which ye shall take of them: gold, and silver, and brass;
25:4 and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' hair;
25:5 and rams' skins dyed red, and sealskins, and acacia-wood;
25:6 oil for the light, spices for the anointing oil, and for the sweet incense;
25:7 onyx stones, and stones to be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate.
25:8 And let them make Me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among them.
25:9 According to all that I show thee, the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the furniture thereof, even so shall ye make it.
25:10 And they shall make an ark of acacia-wood: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.
25:11 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, within and without shalt thou overlay it, and shalt make upon it a crown of gold round about.
25:12 And thou shalt cast four rings of gold for it, and put them in the four feet thereof; and two rings shall be on the one side of it, and two rings on the other side of it.
25:13 And thou shalt make staves of acacia-wood, and overlay them with gold.
25:14 And thou shalt put the staves into the rings on the sides of the ark, wherewith to bear the ark.
25:15 The staves shall be in the rings of the ark; they shall not be taken from it.
25:16 And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony which I shall give thee.
25:17 And thou shalt make an ark-cover of pure gold: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof.
25:18 And thou shalt make two cherubim of gold; of beaten work shalt thou make them, at the two ends of the ark-cover.
25:19 And make one cherub at the one end, and one cherub at the other end; of one piece with the ark-cover shall ye make the cherubim of the two ends thereof.
25:20 And the cherubim shall spread out their wings on high, screening the ark-cover with their wings, with their faces one to another; toward the ark-cover shall the faces of the cherubim be.
25:21 And thou shalt put the ark-cover above upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee.
25:22 And there I will meet with thee, and I will speak with thee from above the ark-cover, from between the two cherubim which are upon the ark of the testimony, of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel.
25:23 And thou shalt make a table of acacia-wood: two cubits shall be the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.
25:24 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, and make thereto a crown of gold round about.
25:25 And thou shalt make unto it a border of a handbreadth round about, and thou shalt make a golden crown to the border thereof round about.
25:26 And thou shalt make for it four rings of gold, and put the rings in the four corners that are on the four feet thereof.
25:27 Close by the border shall the rings be, for places for the staves to bear the table.
25:28 And thou shalt make the staves of acacia-wood, and overlay them with gold, that the table may be borne with them.
25:29 And thou shalt make the dishes thereof, and the pans thereof, and the jars thereof, and the bowls thereof, wherewith to pour out; of pure gold shalt thou make them.
25:30 And thou shalt set upon the table showbread before Me alway.
25:31 And thou shalt make a candlestick of pure gold: of beaten work shall the candlestick be made, even its base, and its shaft; its cups, its knops, and its flowers, shall be of one piece with it.
25:32 And there shall be six branches going out of the sides thereof: three branches of the candlestick out of the one side thereof, and three branches of the candle-stick out of the other side thereof;
25:33 three cups made like almond-blossoms in one branch, a knop and a flower; and three cups made like almond-blossoms in the other branch, a knop and a flower; so for the six branches going out of the candlestick.
25:34 And in the candlestick four cups made like almond-blossoms, the knops thereof, and the flowers thereof.
25:35 And a knop under two branches of one piece with it, and a knop under two branches of one piece with it, and a knop under two branches of one piece with it, for the six branches going out of the candlestick.
25:36 Their knops and their branches shall be of one piece with it; the whole of it one beaten work of pure gold.
25:37 And thou shalt make the lamps thereof, seven; and they shall light the lamps thereof, to give light over against it.
25:38 And the tongs thereof, and the snuffdishes thereof, shall be of pure gold.
25:39 Of a talent of pure gold shall it be made, with all these vessels.
25:40 And see that thou make them after their pattern, which is being shown thee in the mount.
