Exodus 37

1 After this, Bezaleel made the Arke of Shittim wood, two cubites and an halfe long and a cubite and an halfe broade, and a cubite and an halfe hie:

And Beseleel made also the ark of setim wood: it was two cubits and a half in length, and a cubit and a half in breadth, and the height was of one cubit and a half: and he overlaid it with the purest gold within and without.

2 And ouerlayde it with fine golde within and without, and made a crowne of golde to it rounde about,

And he made to it a crown of gold round about,

3 And cast for it foure rings of golde for the foure corners of it: that is, two rings for the one side of it, and two rings for the other side thereof.

Casting four rings of gold at the four corners thereof: two rings in one side, and two in the other.

4 Also he made barres of Shittim wood, and couered them with golde,

And he made bars of setim wood, which he overlaid with gold,

5 And put the barres in the rings by the sides of the Arke, to beare the Arke.

And he put them into the rings that were at the sides of the ark to carry it.

6 And he made the Merciseate of pure golde: two cubites and an halfe was the length thereof, and one cubite and an halfe the breadth thereof.

He made also the propitiatory, that is, the oracle, of the purest gold, two cubits and a half in length, and a cubit and a half in breadth.

7 And he made two Cherubims of gold, vpon the two endes of the Merciseate: euen of worke beaten with the hammer made he them.

Two cherubims also of beaten gold, which he set on the two sides of the propitiatory:

8 One Cherub on the one ende, and another Cherub on the other ende: of the Merciseate made he the Cherubims, at ye two endes thereof.

One cherub in the top of one side, and the other cherub in the top of the other side: two cherubims at the two ends of the propitiatory,

9 And the Cherubims spread out their wings on hie, and couered the Merciseat with their wings, and their faces were one towards another: towarde the Merciseat were the faces of the Cherubims.

Spreading their wings, and covering the propitiatory, and looking one towards the other, and towards it.

10 Also he made ye Table of Shittim wood: two cubites was the length thereof, and a cubite the breadth thereof, and a cubite and an halfe the height of it.

He made also the table of setim wood, in length two cubits, and in breadth one cubit, and in height it was a cubit and a half.

11 And hee ouerlayde it with fine golde, and made thereto a crowne of golde round about.

And he overlaid it with the finest gold, and he made to it a golden ledge round about.

12 Also he made thereto a border of an hand breadth round about, and made vpon the border a crowne of golde round about.

And to the ledge itself he made a polished crown of gold, of four fingers’ breadth, and upon the same another golden crown.

13 And he cast for it foure rings of gold, and put the rings in the foure corners that were in the foure feete thereof.

And he cast four rings of gold, which he put in the four corners at each foot of the table,

14 Against the border were the rings, as places for the barres to beare the Table.

Over against the crown: and he put the bars into them, that the table might be carried.

15 And he made the barres of Shittim wood, and couered them with golde to beare the Table.

And the bars also themselves he made of setim wood, and overlaid them with gold,

16 Also he made the instruments for the Table of pure golde: dishes for it, and incense cuppes for it, and goblets for it, and couerings for it, wherewith it should be couered.

And the vessels for the divers uses of the table, dishes, bowls, and cups, and censers of pure gold, wherein the libations are to be offered.

17 Likewise he made the Candlesticke of pure golde: of worke beaten out with the hammer made he the Candlesticke: and his shaft, and his branche, his bolles, his knops, and his floures were of one piece.

He made also the candlestick of beaten work of the finest gold. From the shaft whereof its branches, its cups, and bowls, and lilies came out:

18 And sixe branches came out of the sides thereof: three branches of the Candlesticke out of the one side of it, and three branches of the Candlesticke out of the other side of it.

Six on the two sides: three branches on one side, and three on the other.

19 In one branche three bolles made like almondes, a knop and a floure: and in another branch three bolles made like almondes, a knop and a floure: and so throughout the sixe branches that proceeded out of the Candlesticke.

Three cups in manner of a nut on each branch, and bowls withal and lilies; and three cups of the fashion of a nut in another branch, and bowls withal and lilies. The work of the six branches that went out from the shaft of the candlestick was equal.

20 And vpon the Candlesticke were foure bolles after the facion of almondes, the knoppes thereof and the floures thereof:

And in the shaft itself were four cups after the manner of a nut, and bowls withal at every one, and lilies:

21 That is, vnder euery two branches a knop made thereof, and a knop vnder the second branch thereof, and a knop vnder the thirde branche thereof, according to the sixe branches comming out of it.

And bowls under two branches in three places, which together make six branches going out from one shaft.

22 Their knops and their branches were of the same: it was all one beaten worke of pure gold.

So both the bowls, and the branches were of the same, all beaten work of the purest gold.

23 And he made for it seuen lampes with the snuffers, and snufdishes thereof of pure golde.

He made also the seven lamps with their snuffers, and the vessels where the snuffings were to be put out, of the purest gold.

24 Of a talent of pure golde made he it with all the instruments thereof.

The candlestick with all the vessels thereof weighed a talent of gold.

25 Furthermore he made the perfume altar of Shittim wood: the length of it was a cubite, and the breadth of it a cubite (it was square) and two cubites hie, and the hornes thereof were of ye same.

He made also the altar of incense of setim wood, being a cubit on every side foursquare, and in height two cubits: from the corners of which went out horns.

26 And he couered it with pure gold, both the top and the sides thereof rounde about, and the hornes of it, and made vnto it a crowne of golde round about.

And he overlaid it with the purest gold, with its grate and the sides, and the horns.

27 And he made two rings of gold for it, vnder the crowne thereof in the two corners of the two sides thereof, to put barres in for to beare it therewith.

And he made to it a crown of gold round about, and two golden rings under the crown at each side, that the bars might be put into them, and the altar be carried.

28 Also he made the barres of Shittim wood, and ouerlayde them with golde.

And the bars themselves he made also of setim wood, and overlaid them with plates of gold.

29 And he made the holy anointing oyle, and the sweete pure incense after ye apothecaries arte.

He compounded also the oil for the ointment of sanctification, and incense of the purest spices, according to the work of a perfumer.
