The Table. ²³ You shall also make a table of acacia^(A) wood, two cubits long, a cubit wide, and a cubit and a half high. ²⁴ Plate it with pure gold and make a molding of gold around it. ²⁵ Make a frame^[a] for it, a handbreadth high, and make a molding of gold around the frame. ²⁶ You shall also make four rings of gold for it and fasten them at the four corners, one at each leg. ²⁷ The rings shall be alongside the frame as holders for the poles to carry the table. ²⁸ These poles for carrying the table you shall make of acacia wood and plate with gold. ²⁹ You shall make its plates^[b] and cups, as well as its pitchers and bowls for pouring libations; make them of pure gold. ³⁰ On the table you shall always keep showbread set before me.^(B)

⁴⁸ Solomon made all the articles that were for the house of the Lord: the golden altar; the table on which the showbread lay;

¹¹ They sacrifice burnt offerings to the Lord and fragrant incense morning after morning and evening after evening; they set out the showbread on the pure table, and the lamps of the golden menorah burn evening after evening; for we observe our duties to the Lord, our God, but you have abandoned him.

² For a tabernacle was constructed, the outer one,^[a] in which were the lampstand, the table, and the bread of offering; this is called the Holy Place.^(A)
