Exodus 25:21-40
New American Standard Bible 1995

21 (A)You shall put the mercy seat [a]on top of the ark, and (B)in the ark you shall put the testimony which I will give to you. 22 (C)There I will meet with you; and from above the mercy seat, from (D)between the two cherubim which are upon the ark of the testimony, I will speak to you about all that I will give you in commandment for the sons of Israel.

The Table of Showbread

23 “(E)You shall make a table of acacia wood, two cubits [b]long and one cubit [c]wide and one and a half cubits [d]high. 24 You shall overlay it with pure gold and make a gold (F)border around it. 25 You shall make for it a rim of a handbreadth around it; and you shall make a gold border for the rim around it. 26 You shall make four gold rings for it and put rings on the four corners which are on its four feet. 27 The rings shall be close to the rim as holders for the poles to carry the table. 28 You shall make the poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold, so that with them the table may be carried. 29 You shall make its [e](G)dishes and its pans and its jars and its [f]bowls with which to pour drink offerings; you shall make them of pure gold. 30 You shall set (H)the bread of the [g]Presence on the table before Me [h]at all times.

The Golden Lampstand

31 “(I)Then you shall make a lampstand of pure gold. The lampstand and its base and its shaft are to be made of hammered work; its cups, its [i]bulbs and its flowers shall be of one piece with it. 32 (J)Six branches shall go out from its sides; three branches of the lampstand from its one side and three branches of the lampstand from its [j]other side. 33 (K)Three cups shall be shaped like almond blossoms in the one branch, a [k]bulb and a flower, and three cups shaped like almond blossoms in the [l]other branch, a [m]bulb and a flower—so for six branches going out from the lampstand; 34 and (L)in the lampstand four cups shaped like almond blossoms, its [n]bulbs and its flowers. 35 (M)A [o]bulb shall be under the first pair of branches coming out of it, and a [p]bulb under the second pair of branches coming out of it, and a [q]bulb under the third pair of branches coming out of it, for the six branches coming out of the lampstand. 36 (N)Their [r]bulbs and their branches shall be of one piece with it; all of it shall be one piece of hammered work of pure gold. 37 Then you shall make its lamps seven in number; and (O)they shall [s]mount its lamps so as to shed light on the space in front of it. 38 Its snuffers and [t]their trays shall be of pure gold. 39 It shall be made from a talent of pure gold, with all these utensils. 40 (P)See that you make them (Q)after the pattern for them, which was shown to you on the mountain.
