And the
Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
02 Speak unto the children of Israel, that
they bring me an offering: of every man that
giveth it willingly with his heart ye shall take
my offering.
03 And this is the offering which ye shall
take of them; gold, and silver, and brass,
04 And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and
fine linen, and goats' hair,
05 And rams' skins dyed red, and badgers'
skins, and shittim wood,
06 Oil for the light, spices for anointing
oil, and for sweet incense,
07 Onyx stones, and stones to be set in the
ephod, and in the breastplate.
08 And let them make me a sanctuary; that I
may dwell among them.
09 According to all that I shew thee, after
the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of
all the instruments thereof, even so shall ye
make it.
10 And they shall make an ark of shittim
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.
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.
12 And thou shalt cast four rings of gold
for it, and put them in the four corners thereof;
and two rings shall be in the one side of it, and
two rings in the other side of it.
13 And thou shalt make staves of shittim
wood, and overlay them with gold.
14 And thou shalt put the staves into the
rings by the sides of the ark, that the ark may
be borne with them.
15 The staves shall be in the rings of the
ark: they shall not be taken from it.
16 And thou shalt put into the ark the
testimony which I shall give thee.
17 And thou shalt make a mercy seat of pure
gold: two cubits and a half shall be the length
thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth
thereof.
18 And thou shalt make two cherubims of
gold, of beaten work shalt thou make them, in the
two ends of the mercy seat.
19 And make one cherub on the one end, and
the other cherub on the other end: even of the
mercy seat shall ye make the cherubims on the two
ends thereof.
20 And the cherubims shall stretch forth
their wings on high, covering the mercy seat with
their wings, and their faces shall look one to
another; toward the mercy seat shall the faces of
the cherubims be.
21 And thou shalt put the mercy seat above
upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the
testimony that I shall give thee.
22 And there I will meet with thee, and I
will commune with thee from above the mercy seat,
from between the two cherubims which are upon the
ark of the testimony, of all things which I will
give thee in commandment unto the children of
Israel.

23 Thou shalt also make a table of shittim
wood: two cubits shall be the length thereof, and
a cubit the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a
half the height thereof.
24 And thou shalt overlay it with pure
gold, and make thereto a crown of gold round
about.
25 And thou shalt make unto it a border of
an hand breadth round about, and thou shalt make
a golden crown to the border thereof round about.
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.
27 Over against the border shall the rings
be for places of the staves to bear the table.
28 And thou shalt make the staves of
shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, that
the table may be borne with them.
29 And thou shalt make the dishes thereof,
and spoons thereof, and covers thereof, and bowls
thereof, to cover withal: of pure gold shalt thou
make them.
30 And thou shalt set upon the table
shewbread before me alway.
31 And thou shalt make a candlestick of
pure gold: of beaten work shall the candlestick
be made: his shaft, and his branches, his bowls,
his knops, and his flowers, shall be of the same.
32 And six branches shall come out of the
sides of it; three branches of the candlestick
out of the one side, and three branches of the
candlestick out of the other side:
33 Three bowls made like unto almonds, with
a knop and a flower in one branch; and three
bowls made like almonds in the other branch, with
a knop and a flower: so in the six branches that
come out of the candlestick.
34 And in the candlesticks shall be four
bowls made like unto almonds, with their knops
and their flowers.
35 And there shall be a knop under two
branches of the same, and a knop under two
branches of the same, and a knop under two
branches of the same, according to the six
branches that proceed out of the candlestick.
36 Their knops and their branches shall be
of the same: all it shall be one beaten work of
pure gold.
37 And thou shalt make the seven lamps
thereof: and they shall light the lamps thereof,
that they may give light over against it.
38 And the tongs thereof, and the
snuffdishes thereof, shall be of pure gold.
39 Of a talent of pure gold shall he make
it, with all these vessels.
40 And look that thou make them after their
pattern, which was shewed thee in the mount.
