And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Gblɔ na Israelviwo be ame sia ame si alɔ̃ la, natsɔ nunana siawo dometɔ aɖewo vɛ nam.
Speak to the children of Israel, and take first-fruits of all, who may be disposed in their heart to give; and ye shall take my first-fruits.

And this is the offering which ye shall take of them; gold and silver and brass,

And thou shalt make for me according to all things which I shew thee in the mountain; even the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all its furniture: so shalt thou make it.

And thou shalt make the ark of testimony of incorruptible wood; the length of two cubits and a half, and the breadth of a cubit and a half, and the height of a cubit and a half.

And thou shalt make two cherubs graven in gold, and thou shalt put them on both sides of the propitiatory.

The cherubs shall stretch forth their wings above, overshadowing the propitiatory with their wings; and their faces shall be toward each other, the faces of the cherubs shall be toward the propitiatory.

And I will make myself known to thee from thence, and I will speak to thee above the propitiatory between the two cherubs, which are upon the ark of testimony, even in all things which I shall charge thee concerning the children of Israel.
23 “Emegbe la, nàtsɔ akasiati akpa kplɔ̃ wòadidi sentimita blaenyi-vɔ-enyi, akeke sentimita blaene-vɔ-ene, eye wòakɔ sentimita blaade-vɔ-ade.

And three bowls fashioned like almonds, on each branch a knop and a lily; so to the six branches proceeding from the candlestick,
