2 He covered it with pure gold inside and out and put a gold molding around it.

3 He cast four gold rings for its four feet, two rings on each side.

5 Then he put them through the rings that were on each side of the Ark.

6 He made a lid of pure gold, forty-five inches long and twenty-seven inches wide.

7 He made two cherubim of hammered gold,

8 one for each end of the lid. He made them so that they formed one piece with the lid, one cherub at each end.

9 The cherubim had their wings spread upward. They covered the mercy seat with their wings. The faces of the cherubim were toward the mercy seat and toward each other.

10 He made the table of acacia wood. It was thirty-six inches long and eighteen inches wide and twenty-seven inches high.

12 The rim he made for it was a handbreadth all around. He also made gold molding all around it.

13 He cast four gold rings for it and put the rings on the four corners that were on its four feet.

14 The rings were put close to the rim to hold the poles for carrying the table.

15 These poles were made out of acacia wood and were covered with gold.

16 He made plates, dishes, bowls, and pitchers to be used for pouring wine offerings on the table. All of them were made out of pure gold.

19 There were three decorative almond blossoms on each branch.

20 And there were four on the lamp stand.

21 A blossom was placed where each pair of branches came out from the lamp stand.

22 The lamp stand, including its branches and decorative flowers, was made from a single piece of hammered pure gold.

26 All of it was covered with pure gold, the top, the sides, and the horns. He put a gold molding around it.

27 He made two gold rings and put them below the molding on opposite sides to hold the poles for carrying it.
