Exodus 25

1 locutusque est Dominus ad Mosen dicens

And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

2 loquere filiis Israhel ut tollant mihi primitias ab omni homine qui offert ultroneus accipietis eas

Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring me a heave-offering: of every one whose heart prompteth him, ye shall take my heave-offering.

3 haec sunt autem quae accipere debetis aurum et argentum et aes

And this is the heave-offering that ye shall take of them: gold, and silver, and copper,

4 hyacinthum et purpuram coccumque bis tinctum et byssum pilos caprarum

and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and byssus, and goats' [hair],

5 et pelles arietum rubricatas pelles ianthinas et ligna setthim

and rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins; and acacia-wood;

6 oleum ad luminaria concinnanda aromata in unguentum et thymiama boni odoris

oil for the light; spices for the anointing oil, and for the incense of fragrant drugs;

7 lapides onychinos et gemmas ad ornandum ephod ac rationale

onyx stones, and stones to be set in the ephod, and in the breastplate.

8 facientque mihi sanctuarium et habitabo in medio eorum

And they shall make me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among them.

9 iuxta omnem similitudinem tabernaculi quod ostendam tibi et omnium vasorum in cultum eius sicque facietis illud

According to all that I shall shew thee, the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the utensils thereof, even so shall ye make [it].

10 arcam de lignis setthim conpingite cuius longitudo habeat duos semis cubitos latitudo cubitum et dimidium altitudo cubitum similiter ac semissem

And they shall make an ark of acacia-wood; two cubits and a half the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.

And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold: inside and outside shalt thou overlay it; and shalt make upon it a border of gold round about.

12 et quattuor circulos aureos quos pones per quattuor arcae angulos duo circuli sint in latere uno et duo in altero

19 cherub unus sit in latere uno et alter in altero

And make one cherub at the end of the one side, and one cherub at the end of the other side; out of the mercy-seat shall ye make the cherubim at the two ends thereof.

20 utrumque latus propitiatorii tegant expandentes alas et operientes oraculum respiciantque se mutuo versis vultibus in propitiatorium quo operienda est arca

And the cherubim shall stretch out [their] wings over it, covering over with their wings the mercy-seat, and their faces opposite to one another: toward the mercy-seat shall the faces of the cherubim be [turned].

21 in qua pones testimonium quod dabo tibi

And thou shalt put the mercy-seat above on the ark, and shalt put in the ark the testimony that I shall give thee.

22 inde praecipiam et loquar ad te supra propitiatorio scilicet ac medio duorum cherubin qui erunt super arcam testimonii cuncta quae mandabo per te filiis Israhel

three cups shaped like almonds in the one branch, a knob and a flower: and three cups shaped like almonds in the other branch, a knob and a flower: so in the six branches that come out of the lamp-stand.
