Exodus 37

₁Bezalel made the covenant box from acacia wood. The box was 2 and a half cubits long and one and a half cubits wide and one and a half cubits high. ₂He covered the covenant box on the inside and outside with pure gold. He made a rim of gold and put it around the sides of the covenant box. ₃He made 4 golden rings and he fastened a ring on each lower corner of the covenant box. There were 2 rings on each side. ₄Bezalel made 2 carrying poles from acacia wood and he covered them with gold. ₅He put the carrying poles into the rings on the sides of the covenant box and they carried the box with these carrying poles. ₆Bezalel made the lid of the box from pure gold. The lid was 2 and a half cubits long and one and a half cubits wide. ₇He made 2 cherub-angels of gold and he fastened them onto the 2 ends of the lid. ₈One cherub-angel was on one side of the lid and the other cherub-angel was on the other side. The cherub-angels and the lid were made of one piece of gold. ₉The wings of the cherub-angels were open and covered the lid. Their faces were towards each other and they looked down at the lid.

₁₀Bezalel made a table from acacia wood. It was 2 cubits long and one cubit wide and one and a half cubits high. _11-12He covered the table with pure gold and he put a rim of gold around the table. The rim was one handbreadth wide and on its side it had another smaller rim of gold. ₁₃He made 4 golden rings and he put the rings on the 4 corners of the table, one ring at each table leg. ₁₄The rings were near the sides so that they could put carrying poles through the rings to carry the table.

₁₅Bezalel made the carrying poles from acacia wood and he covered them with gold. They carried the table with these carrying poles. ₁₆He also made everything that they had to use at the table: the dishes, pans, pots and bowls. They used these to pour out the drink-offering. Bezalel made everything from pure gold.

₁₇Bezalel made a lamp-stand from pure gold. He had to make the stand of the lamp-stand, its trunk, flowers and flower-buds from one piece of gold. ₁₈There were 6 branches on the sides of the stand, 3 branches on one side and 3 branches on the other side. ₁₉There were 3 flowers on each branch. The flowers looked like the flower-buds and flowers of almond trees. ₂₀There were 4 flowers on the trunk. They also looked like the flowers and flower-buds of almond trees. ₂₁There was a flower-bud at each place where the 2 branches of the lamp-stand came together. ₂₂The flower-buds and the branches were all made with a hammer from one piece of pure gold.

₂₃Bezalel made 7 lamps and lamp-snuffers to put out the lamps. He made everything from pure gold. ₂₄He used one talent of pure gold to make the lamp-stand and everything with the lamp-stand.

₂₅Bezalel made an incense-altar from acacia wood. It was square, one cubit wide and one cubit long, and it was 2 cubits high. The altar and its horns were made of one piece of wood. ₂₆He covered the incense-altar with pure gold, on the top of the altar, the sides and the horns. He then put a golden rim around the altar. ₂₇He made 2 golden rings and he fastened them under the rims of the 2 sides of the altar. He put the carrying poles in the rings to carry the incense-altar. ₂₈He made carrying poles from acacia wood and he covered them with gold.

₂₉Bezalel made holy anointing-oil and pure incense. He made it like a perfume maker makes oils.
