Exodus 37:10–29

MAKING THE TABLE

¹⁰He^a constructed the table of acacia wood, thirty-six inches long, eighteen inches wide, and twenty-seven inches high.^{B 11}He overlaid it with pure gold and made a gold molding all around it. ¹²He made a three-inch^C frame all around it and made a gold molding all around its frame. ¹³He cast four gold rings for it and attached the rings to the four corners at its four legs. ¹⁴The rings were next to the frame as holders for the poles to carry the table. ¹⁵He made the poles for carrying the table from acacia wood and overlaid them with gold. ¹⁶He also made the utensils that would be on the table out of pure gold: its plates and cups, as well as its bowls and pitchers for pouring drink offerings.

MAKING THE LAMPSTAND

¹⁷Then^b he made the lampstand out of pure hammered gold. He made it all of one piece: its base and shaft, its ornamental cups, and its buds and petals. ¹⁸Six branches extended from its sides, three branches of the lampstand from one side and three branches of the lampstand from the other side. ¹⁹There were three cups shaped like almond blossoms, each with a bud and petals, on one branch, and three cups shaped like almond blossoms, each with a bud and petals, on the next branch. It was this way for the six branches that extended from the lampstand. ²⁰There were four cups shaped like almond blossoms on the lampstand shaft along with its buds and petals. ²¹For the six branches that extended from it, a bud was under the first pair of branches from it, a bud under the second pair of branches from it, and a bud under the third pair of branches from it. ²²Their buds and branches were of one piece with it. All of it was a single hammered piece of pure gold. ²³He also made its seven lamps, snuffers, and firepans of pure gold. ²⁴He made it and all its utensils of seventy-five pounds^D of pure gold.

MAKING THE ALTAR OF INCENSE

²⁵He^c made the altar of incense out of acacia wood. It was square, eighteen inches long and eighteen inches wide; it was thirty-six inches high.^E Its horns were of one piece with it. ²⁶He overlaid it, its top, all around its sides, and its horns with pure gold. Then he made a gold molding all around it. ²⁷He made two gold rings for it under the molding on two of its sides; he put these on opposite sides of it to be holders for the poles to carry it with. ²⁸He made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold.

²⁹He also made the holy anointing oil and the pure, fragrant, and expertly blended incense.^d
