Exodus Chapter 25

Exodus Chapter 25
1 Then the Lord spake unto Moses,
saying,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, that
they receive an offering for me: of every
man, whose heart giveth it freely, ye
shall take the offering for me. 3 And this
is the offering which ye shall take of
them, gold, and silver, and brass,
4 And blue silk, and purple, and scarlet,
and fine linen, and goats’ hair, 5 And
ram skins colored red, and the skins of
badgers, and the wood shittim, 6 Oil for
the light, spices for anointing oil, and for
the perfume of sweet savor, 7 Onyx
stones, and stones to be set in the ephod,
and in the breastplate. 8 Also they shall
make me a sanctuary, that I may dwell
among them. 9 According to all that I
show thee, even so shall ye make the
form of the tabernacle, and the fashion of
all the instruments thereof.
10 They shall make also an ark of shittim
wood, two cubits and an half long, and a
cubit and an half broad, and a cubit and
an half high.
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: that
is, two rings shall be on the one side of
it, and two rings on the other side
thereof.
13 And thou shalt make bars of shittim
wood, and cover them with gold. 14
Then thou shalt put the bars in the rings
by the sides of the ark, to bear the ark
with them.
15 The bars shall be in the rings of the
ark: they shall not be taken away from it.
16 So thou shalt put in the ark the
testimony which I shall give thee. 17
Also thou shalt make a mercy seat of
pure gold, two cubits and an half long,
and a cubit and an half broad.
18 And thou shalt make two cherubims
of gold: of work beaten out with the
hammer shalt thou make them at the two
ends of the mercy seat.
19 And the one cherub shalt thou make at
the one end, and the other cherub at the
other end: of the matter of the mercy
seat shall ye make the cherubims, on the
two ends thereof.
20 And the cherubims shall stretch their
wings on high, covering the mercy seat
with their wings, and their faces one to
another: to the mercy seat ward 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, which I will give
thee,
22 And there I will declare myself unto
thee, and from above the mercy seat
between the two cherubims, which are
upon the ark of the testimony, I will tell
thee all things which I will give thee in
commandment unto the children of
Israel.
23 Thou shalt also make a table of
shittim wood, of two cubits long, and
one cubit broad, and a cubit and an half
high:
24 And thou shalt cover it with pure
gold, and make thereto a crown of gold
round about.
25 Thou shalt also make unto it a border
of four fingers round about and thou shalt
make a golden crown round about the
border thereof.
26 After, thou shalt make for it four rings
of gold, and shalt put the rings in the four
corners that are in the four feet thereof:
27 Over against the border shall the
rings be for places for bars, to bear the
table.
28 And thou shalt make the bars of
shittim wood, and shalt overlay them
with gold, that the table may be borne
with them.
29 Thou shalt make also dishes for it,
and incense cups for it and coverings for
it, and goblets, wherewith it shall be
covered, even of fine gold shalt thou
make them.
30 And thou shalt set upon the table
showbread before me continually. 31
Also thou shalt make a candlestick of
pure gold: of work beaten out with the
hammer shall the candlestick be made,
his shaft, and his branches, his bowls,
his knops: and his flowers shall be of the
same.
32 Six branches also shall come out of
the sides of it: three branches of the
candlestick out of the one side of it, and
three branches of the candlestick out of
the other side of it.
33 Three bowls like unto almonds, one
knop and one flower in one branch: and
three bowls like almonds in the other
branch, one knop and one flower: so
throughout the six branches that come out
of the candlestick. 34 And in the shaft of
the candlestick shall be four bowls like
unto almonds, his knops and his flowers.
35 And there shall be a knop under two
branches made thereof: and a knop under
two branches made thereof: and a knop
under two
branches made thereof, according to the
six branches coming out of the
candlestick.
36Their knops and their branches shall
be thereof. all this shall be one beaten
work of pure gold.
37 And thou shalt make the seven lamps
thereof: and the lamps thereof shalt thou
put thereon, to give light toward that that
is before it.
38 Also the snuffers and snuff dishes
thereof shall be of pure gold. 39 Of a
talent of fine gold shalt thou make it with
all these instruments. 40 Look therefore
that thou make them after their fashion,
that was showed thee in the mountain.
