And the LORD spake
unto Moses
, saying
,
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
.
And this is the offering which ye shall take
of them; gold
, and silver
, and brass
,
And blue, and purple
, and scarlet
, and fine linen
, and goats
' hair ,
And rams' skins
dyed red
, and badgers
' skins
, and shittim
wood
,
Oil for the light
, spices
for anointing
oil
, and for sweet
incense
,
Onyx stones
, and stones
to be set
in the ephod
, and in the breastplate
.
And let them make me a sanctuary
; that I may dwell
among
them.
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 .
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.
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
.
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.
And thou shalt make staves
of shittim
wood
, and overlay
them with gold
.
And thou shalt put the staves
into the rings
by the sides
of the ark
, that the ark
may be borne
with them.
The staves shall be
in the rings
of the ark
: they shall not be taken
from it.
And thou shalt put into the ark
the testimony
which I shall give
thee.
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.
And thou shalt make two
cherubims
of gold
, of beaten work
shalt thou make
them, in the two
ends
of the mercy seat
.
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.
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.
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.
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
.
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.
And thou shalt overlay it with pure
gold
, and make
thereto a crown
of gold
round about
.
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
.
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.
Over against the border
shall the rings
be for places
of the staves
to bear
the table
.
And thou shalt make the staves
of shittim
wood
, and overlay
them with gold
, that the table
may be borne
with them.
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.
And thou shalt set upon the table
shewbread
before
me alway
.
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.
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
:
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
.
And in the candlestick shall be four
bowls
made like unto almonds
, with their knops
and their flowers
.
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
.
Their knops and their branches
shall be of the same: all it shall be one
beaten work
of pure
gold
.
And thou shalt make the seven
lamps
thereof: and they shall light
the lamps
thereof, that they may give light
over against
it
.
And the tongs thereof, and the snuffdishes
thereof, shall be of pure
gold
.
Of a talent of pure
gold
shall he make
it, with all these vessels
.
And look that thou make
them after their pattern
, which was shewed
thee in the mount
.
