1 | And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
|
2 | 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. |
|
3 | And this is the offering which ye shall take of them; gold,
and silver, and brass, |
|
4 | And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats'
hair, |
|
5 | And rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins, and shittim
wood, |
|
6 | Oil for the light, spices for anointing oil, and for sweet
incense, |
|
7 | Onyx stones, and stones to be set in the ephod, and in the
breastplate. |
|
8 | And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them. |
|
9 | 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. |
|
10 | 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. |
|
11 | 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. |
|
12 | 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. |
|
13 | And thou shalt make staves of shittim wood, and overlay them
with gold. |
|
14 | And thou shalt put the staves into the rings by the sides of
the ark, that the ark may be borne with them. |
|
15 | The staves shall be in the rings of the ark: they shall not be
taken from it. |
|
16 | And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony which I shall
give thee. |
|
17 | 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. |
|
18 | And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of beaten work
shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat. |
|
19 | 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. |
|
20 | 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. |
|
21 | 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. |
|
22 | 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. |
|
23 | 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. |
|
24 | And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, and make thereto a
crown of gold round about. |
|
25 | 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. |
|
26 | 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. |
|
27 | Over against the border shall the rings be for places of the
staves to bear the table. |
|
28 | And thou shalt make the staves of shittim wood, and overlay
them with gold, that the table may be borne with them. |
|
29 | 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. |
|
30 | And thou shalt set upon the table shewbread before me alway. |
|
31 | 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. |
|
32 | 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: |
|
33 | 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. |
|
34 | And in the candlesticks shall be four bowls made like unto
almonds, with their knops and their flowers. |
|
35 | 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. |
|
36 | Their knops and their branches shall be of the same: all it
shall be one beaten work of pure gold. |
|
37 | And thou shalt make the seven lamps thereof: and they shall
light the lamps thereof, that they may give light over against
it. |
|
38 | And the tongs thereof, and the snuffdishes thereof, shall be
of pure gold. |
|
39 | Of a talent of pure gold shall he make it, with all these
vessels. |
|
40 | And look that thou make them after their pattern, which was
shewed thee in the mount. |
