002:025:001
And the LORD spake unto Moses,
saying,
002:025:002
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.
002:025:003
And this is the offering which ye shall take of them;
gold,
and silver,
and brass,
002:025:004
And blue,
and purple,
and scarlet,
and fine linen,
and goats' hair,
002:025:005
And rams' skins dyed red,
and badgers' skins,
and shittim wood,
002:025:006
Oil for the light,
spices for anointing oil,
and for sweet incense,
002:025:007
Onyx stones,
and stones to be set in the ephod,
and in the breastplate.
002:025:008
And let them make me a sanctuary;
that I may dwell among them.
002:025:009
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.
002:025:010
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.
002:025:011
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.
002:025:012
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.
002:025:013
And thou shalt make staves of shittim wood,
and overlay them with gold.
002:025:014
And thou shalt put the staves into the rings by the sides of the ark,
that the ark may be borne with them.
002:025:015
The staves shall be in the rings of the ark:
they shall not be taken from it.
002:025:016
And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony which I shall give thee.
002:025:017
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.
002:025:018
And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold,
of beaten work shalt thou make them,
in the two ends of the mercy seat.
002:025:019
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.
002:025:020
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.
002:025:021
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.
002:025:022
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.
002:025:023
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.
002:025:024
And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold,
and make thereto a crown of gold round about.
002:025:025
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.
002:025:026
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.
002:025:027
Over against the border shall the rings be for places of the staves to bear the table.
002:025:028
And thou shalt make the staves of shittim wood,
and overlay them with gold,
that the table may be borne with them.
002:025:029
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.
002:025:030
And thou shalt set upon the table shewbread before me alway.
002:025:031
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.
002:025:032
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:
002:025:033
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.
002:025:034
And in the candlesticks shall be four bowls made like unto almonds,
with their knops and their flowers.
002:025:035
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.
002:025:036
Their knops and their branches shall be of the same:
all it shall be one beaten work of pure gold.
002:025:037
And thou shalt make the seven lamps thereof:
and they shall light the lamps thereof,
that they may give light over against it.
002:025:038
And the tongs thereof,
and the snuffdishes thereof,
shall be of pure gold.
002:025:039
Of a talent of pure gold shall he make it,
with all these vessels.
002:025:040
And look that thou make them after their pattern,
which was shewed thee in the mount.
