< Exodus 37 >

1 fecit autem Beselehel et arcam de lignis setthim habentem duos semis cubitos in longitudinem et cubitum ac semissem in latitudinem altitudo quoque uno cubito fuit et dimidio 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 quattuor anulos aureos per quattuor angulos eius duos anulos in latere uno et duos in altero

Then he made poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold.
5 et quos misit in anulos qui erant in lateribus arcae 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 dimidio in longitudine et cubito ac semisse 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 cherubin 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 huius partis et cherub alterum in summitate partis alterius duos cherubin 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 respectantes
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 setthim in longitudine duorum cubitorum et in latitudine unius cubiti quae habebat in altitudine cubitum ac semissem

13 fudit et quattuor circulos aureos quos posuit in quattuor angulis per singulos pedes mensae
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

17 fecit et candelabrum ductile de auro mundissimo de cuius vecte calami scyphi spherulae 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 spherulaeque simul et lilia et tres scyphi instar nucis in calamo altero spherulaeque simul et lilia aequum 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 quattuor scyphi in nucis modum spherulaeque per singulos et lilia

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.
