Exodus 25

25And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, ^2aSpeak unto the children of Israel, that they ^†bring me an ^||offering: ^bof every man that giveth it willingly with his heart ye shall take my ^||offering. ³And this is the ^||offering which ye shall take of them; gold, and silver, and brass, ⁴And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and ^||fine linen, and goats’ hair, ⁵And rams’ skins dyed red, and badgers’ skins, and shittim wood, ^6cOil for the light, ^dspices for anointing oil, and for ^esweet incense, ^7fOnyx stones, and stones to be set in the ^gephod, and in the ^gbreastplate. ⁸And let them make me a ^hsanctuary; that ⁱI may dwell among them. ^9jAccording 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.

^10kAnd 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. ¹¹And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, ^lwithin and without shalt thou overlay it, and shalt make upon it a ^mcrown of gold round about. ¹²And thou shalt cast four rings of gold for it, and put them in the four ⁿcorners thereof; and two rings shall be in the one side of it, and two rings in the other side of it. ¹³And thou shalt make staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold. ¹⁴And thou shalt put the staves into the rings by the sides of the ark, that the ark may be borne with them. ^15oThe staves shall be in the rings of the ark: they shall not be taken from it. ¹⁶And thou shalt put into the ark ^pthe testimony which I shall give thee. ¹⁷And thou shalt make ^qa mercy seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof. ¹⁸And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of ^rbeaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat. ¹⁹And 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. ²⁰And ^sthe 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. ^21tAnd thou shalt put the mercy seat above upon the ark; and ^uin the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee. ²²And ^xthere I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy seat, from ^ybetween 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.

^23zThou 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. ²⁴And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, and make thereto a ^acrown of gold round about. ²⁵And thou shalt make unto it a border of an hand breadth round about, and thou shalt make a golden ^acrown to the border thereof round about. ²⁶And thou shalt make for it four rings of gold, and put the rings in the four corners that are on the four feet thereof. ²⁷Over against the border shall the rings be for ^bplaces of the staves to bear the table. ²⁸And thou shalt make the staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, that the table may be borne with them. ²⁹And thou shalt make ^cthe dishes thereof, and spoons thereof, and covers thereof, and bowls thereof, ^||to cover withal: of pure gold shalt thou make them. ³⁰And thou shalt set upon the table ^dshewbread before me alway.

^31eAnd 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. ³²And 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: ³³Three 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. ³⁴And in the candlestick shall be four bowls made like unto almonds, with their knops and their flowers. ³⁵And 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. ³⁶Their knops and their branches shall be of the same: all it shall be one beaten work of pure gold. ³⁷And thou shalt make the seven lamps thereof: and ^fthey shall ^||light the lamps thereof, that they may ^ggive light over against ^†it. ³⁸And the tongs thereof, and the snuffdishes thereof, shall be of pure gold. ³⁹Of a talent of pure gold shall he make it, with all these vessels. ⁴⁰And ^hlook that thou make them after their pattern, ^†which was shewed thee in the mount.
