The Ark(A)

37 Bezalel made the ark out of acacia wood 45 inches long, 27 inches wide, and 27 inches high. He covered it with pure gold inside and out and put a gold molding around it. He cast four gold rings for its four feet, two rings on each side. Then he made poles out of acacia wood and covered them with gold. He put them through the rings on the sides of the ark in order to carry it.

He made the throne of mercy out of pure gold 45 inches long and 27 inches wide. Then he made two angels [a] out of hammered gold for the two ends of the throne of mercy, one on each end. He formed the angels and the throne of mercy out of one piece ⌞of gold⌟. The angels had their wings spread above the throne of mercy, overshadowing it. They faced each other, looking at the throne of mercy.
