Exodus

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 can­dle­stick 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.
