< Exodus 37 >

1 Fecit autem Beseleel et arcam de lignis setim, habentem duos semis cubitos in longitudine, et cubitum ac semissem in latitudine, altitudo quoque unius cubiti fuit et dimidii: vestivitque eam auro purissimo intus ac foris.
Bezalel went on to construct the ark of acacia wood, two and a half cubits long, a cubit and a half wide, and a cubit and a half high.
2 Et fecit illi coronam auream per gyrum,
He overlaid it with pure gold, both inside and out, and made a gold molding around it.
3 conflans quatuor annulos aureos per quatuor angulos ejus: duos annulos in latere uno, et duos in altero.
And he cast four gold rings for its four feet, two rings on one side and two on the other.
4 Vectes quoque fecit de lignis setim, quos vestivit auro,
Then he made poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold.
5 et quos misit in annulos, qui erant in lateribus arcæ ad portandum eam.
He inserted the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark in order to carry it.
6 Fecit et propitiatorium, id est, oraculum, de auro mundissimo, duorum cubitorum et dimidii in longitudine, et cubiti ac semis in latitudine.
He constructed a mercy seat of pure gold, two and a half cubits long and a cubit and a half wide.
7 Duos etiam cherubim ex auro ductili, quos posuit ex utraque parte propitiatorii:
He made two cherubim of hammered gold at the ends of the mercy seat,
8 cherub unum in summitate unius partis, et cherub alterum in summitate partis alterius: duos cherubim in singulis summitatibus propitiatorii,
one cherub on one end and one on the other, all made from one piece of gold.
9 extendentes alas, et tegentes propitiatorium, seque mutuo et illud respicientes.
And the cherubim had wings that spread upward, overshadowing the mercy seat. The cherubim faced each other, looking toward the mercy seat.
10 Fecit et mensam de lignis setim in longitudine duorum cubitorum, et in latitudine unius cubiti, quæ habebat in altitudine cubitum ac semissem.
He also made the table of acacia wood two cubits long, a cubit wide, and a cubit and a half high.
11 Circumdeditque eam auro mundissimo, et fecit illi labium aureum per gyrum,
He overlaid it with pure gold and made a gold molding around it.
12 ipsique labio coronam auream interrasilem quatuor digitorum, et super eamdem, alteram coronam auream.
And he made a rim around it a handbreadth wide and put a gold molding on the rim.
13 Fudit et quatuor circulos aureos, quos posuit in quatuor angulis per singulos pedes mensæ
He cast four gold rings for the table and fastened them to the four corners at its four legs.
14 contra coronam: misitque in eos vectes, ut possit mensa portari.
The rings were placed close to the rim, to serve as holders for the poles used to carry the table.
15 Ipsos quoque vectes fecit de lignis setim, et circumdedit eos auro.

16 Et vasa ad diversos usus mensæ, acetabula, phialas, et cyathos, et thuribula, ex auro puro, in quibus offerenda sunt libamina.
He also made the utensils for the table out of pure gold: its plates and dishes, as well as its bowls and pitchers for pouring drink offerings.
17 Fecit et candelabrum ductile de auro mundissimo, de cujus vecte calami, scyphi, sphærulæque, ac lilia procedebant:
Then he made the lampstand out of pure hammered gold, all of one piece: its base and shaft, its cups, and its buds and petals.
18 sex in utroque latere, tres calami ex parte una, et tres ex altera:
Six branches extended from the sides, three on one side and three on the other.
19 tres scyphi in nucis modum per calamos singulos, sphærulæque simul et lilia: et tres scyphi instar nucis in calamo altero, sphærulæque simul et lilia. Æquum erat opus sex calamorum, qui procedebant de stipite candelabri.
There were three cups shaped like almond blossoms on the first branch, each with buds and petals, three on the next branch, and the same for all six branches that extended from the lampstand.
20 In ipso autem vecte erant quatuor scyphi in nucis modum, sphærulæque per singulos simul et lilia:
And on the lampstand were four cups shaped like almond blossoms with buds and petals.
21 et sphærulæ sub duobus calamis per loca tria, qui simul sex fiunt calami procedentes de vecte uno.
A bud was under the first pair of branches that extended from the lampstand, a bud under the second pair, and a bud under the third pair.
22 Et sphærulæ igitur, et calami ex ipso erant, universa ductilia ex auro purissimo.
The buds and branches were all of one piece with the lampstand, hammered out of pure gold.
23 Fecit et lucernas septem cum emunctoriis suis, et vasa ubi ea, quæ emuncta sunt, extinguantur, de auro mundissimo.
He also made its seven lamps, its wick trimmers, and trays of pure gold.
24 Talentum auri appendebat candelabrum cum omnibus vasis suis.
He made the lampstand and all its utensils from a talent of pure gold.
25 Fecit et altare thymiamatis de lignis setim, per quadrum singulos habens cubitos, et in altitudine duos: e cujus angulis procedebant cornua.
He made the altar of incense out of acacia wood. It was square, a cubit long, a cubit wide, and two cubits high. Its horns were of one piece.
26 Vestivitque illud auro purissimo cum craticula ac parietibus et cornibus.
And he overlaid with pure gold the top and all the sides and horns. Then he made a molding of gold around it.
27 Fecitque ei coronam aureolam per gyrum, et duos annulos aureos sub corona per singula latera, ut mittantur in eos vectes, et possit altare portari.
He made two gold rings below the molding on opposite sides to hold the poles used to carry it.
28 Ipsos autem vectes fecit de lignis setim, et operuit laminis aureis.
