[1] AND the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
[2] Speak to the Israelites to set aside an offering for me; of every man that gives it willingly with his heart you shall take an offering.
[3] And this is the offering which you shall take of them: gold, silver, and brass,
[4] Blue, purple, and scarlet, fine linen, and goats' hair,
[5] And rams' skins dyed red, skins dyed with vermilion, and shittim wood,
[6] Oil for the lamps, spices for anointing oil, and for sweet incense,
[7] Onyx stones, and precious 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 show you, after the pattern of the tabernacle and the pattern of all the vessels thereof, even so shall you make it
[10] And they shall make an ark of shittim wood, two and a half cubits long, and a cubit and a half broad, and a cubit and a half high.
[11] And you shall overlay it with pure gold, without and within shall you overlay it, and shall make upon it a crown of gold round about.
[12] And you shall cast four rings of gold for it, and put them in the four corners thereof; and two rings on the one side of it, and two rings on the other side of it.
[13] And you shall make poles of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold.
[14] And you shall put the poles into the rings by the sides of the ark, that the ark may be borne with them.
[15] The poles shall remain in the rings of the ark; they shall never be taken out of them.
[16] And you shall put into the ark the testimony which I shall give you.
[17] And you shall make a mercy seat of pure gold, two and a half cubits long, and a cubit and a half broad.
[18] And you shall make two cherubim of gold, of cast work shall you make them, on the two sides of the mercy seat.
[19] And make one cherub on the one side, and the other cherub on the other side of the mercy seat; thus you shall make two cherubim on the two sides thereof.
[20] And the cherubim shall spread 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 cherubim be.
[21] And you shall put the mercy seat on top of the ark; and in the ark you shall put the testimony that I shall give you.
[22] And there I will meet you, and I will commune with you from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubim which are upon the ark of the testimony, of all things which I will command you concerning the children of Israel
[23] You shall also make a table of shittim wood, two cubits long, a cubit broad, and a cubit and a half high.
[24] And you shall overlay it with pure gold, and make for it a crown of gold round about.
[25] And you shall make for it a border of a handbreadth round about, and you shall make a golden crown for the border thereof round about.
[26] And you shall make for it four rings of gold, and put the rings in the four corners that are on the four feet thereof.
[27] The rings shall be put toward the border to be places for the poles to carry the table.
[28] You shall make the poles of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, that the table may be borne with them.
[29] You shall make dishes, spoons, jars, and bowls to pour out wine with them; of pure gold you shall make them.
[30] And you shall set shewbread on the table before me always
[31] And you shall make a candlestick of pure gold; of cast work shall the candlestick be made; its shaft, its branches, its bowls, its buds, and its flowers shall be of one piece.
[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 shall be fastened on one shaft, with buds and flowers on one branch; and three bowls shall be fastened on another shaft, with buds and flowers on the other branch; so on all the six branches that come out of the candlestick.
[34] And on the candlestick shall be four bowls made like almonds, with their buds and flowers.
[35] And there shall be a bud under two branches of the same, and a bud under two branches of the same, and a bud under two branches of the same, likewise for the six branches that come out of the candlestick.
[36] Their buds and their branches shall be of one piece; all of it shall be of one piece cast of pure gold.
[37] And you shall make the seven lamps thereof; and they shall light the lamps thereof, that they may give light over against it.
[38] And you shall make snuffers thereof, and snuff dishes thereof of pure gold.
[39] Of a talent of pure gold shall you make it, with all these vessels.
[40] And see that you make them after the same pattern which I have shown you on the mountain
