The Ark

25:10–20pp—Ex 37:1–9

10“Have them make an arkbv of acacia wood—two and a half cubits long, a cubit and a half wide, and a cubit and a half high.c 11Overlayw it with pure gold, both inside and out, and make a gold molding around it. 12Cast four gold rings for it and fasten them to its four feet, with two ringsx on one side and two rings on the other. 13Then make poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold.y 14Insert the polesz into the rings on the sides of the ark to carry it. 15The poles are to remain in the rings of this ark; they are not to be removed.a 16Then put in the ark the tablets of the covenant law,b which I will give you.

17“Make an atonement coverc of pure gold—two and a half cubits long and a cubit and a half wide. 18And make two cherubimd out of hammered gold at the ends of the cover. 19Make one cherub on one end and the second cherub on the other; make the cherubim of one piece with the cover, at the two ends. 20The cherubime are to have their wings spread upward, overshadowingf the cover with them. The cherubim are to face each other, looking toward the cover. 21Place the cover on top of the arkg and put in the ark the tablets of the covenant lawh that I will give you. 22There, above the cover between the two cherubimi that are over the ark of the covenant law, I will meetj with you and give you all my commands for the Israelites.k
