Exodus 37

KING JAMES BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 And Bezaleel made the ark of shittim wood: two cubits and a half was the length of it, and a cubit and a half the breadth of it, and a cubit and a half the height of it:	1 Now Bezalel also made the ark from setim wood, having two and one half cubits in length, and one and one half cubits in width, and the height was also one and one half cubits. And he clothed it with the purest gold, inside and out.
2 And he overlaid it with pure gold within and without, and made a crown of gold to it round about.	2 And for it he made a crown of gold all around,
3 And he cast for it four rings of gold, to be set by the four corners of it; even two rings upon the one side of it, and two rings upon the other side of it.	3 casting four gold rings at its four corners: two rings on one side, and two on the other.
4 And he made staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold.	4 Likewise, he made bars from setim wood, which he clothed with gold,
5 And he put the staves into the rings by the sides of the ark, to bear the ark.	5 and he placed them into the rings, which were at the sides of the ark, to carry it.
6 And he made the mercy seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half was the length thereof, and one cubit and a half the breadth thereof.	6 He also made the propitiatory, that is, the oracle, from the finest gold, two and one half cubits in length, and one and one half cubits in width,
7 And he made two cherubims of gold, beaten out of one piece made he them, on the two ends of the mercy seat;	7 and then two Cherubim of ductile gold, which he positioned at the two sides of the propitiatory:
8 One cherub on the end on this side, and another cherub on the other end on that side: out of the mercy seat made he the cherubims on the two ends thereof.	8 one Cherub at the top of one side, and the other Cherub at the top of the other side. The two Cherubim were at each end of the propitiatory,
9 And the cherubims spread out their wings on high, and covered with their wings over the mercy seat, with their faces one to another; even to the mercy seatward were the faces of the cherubims.	9 spreading their wings, and protecting the propitiatory, and gazing toward it and toward one another.
10 And he made the table of shittim wood: two cubits was the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof:	10 He also made the table from setim wood, with a length of two cubits, and a width of one cubit, which had a height of one and one half cubits.
11 And he overlaid it with pure gold, and made thereunto a crown of gold round about.	11 And he surrounded it with the finest gold, and for it he made a ledge of gold all around,
12 Also he made thereunto a border of an handbreadth round about; and made a crown of gold for the border thereof round about.	12 and for the ledge itself he made a polished crown of gold, four fingers high, and upon the same, another crown of gold.
13 And he cast for it four rings of gold, and put the rings upon the four corners that were in the four feet thereof.	13 And he cast four gold rings, which he set at the four corners at each foot of the table,
14 Over against the border were the rings, the places for the staves to bear the table.	14 opposite the crown. And he placed the bars into them, so that the table could be carried.
15 And he made the staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold, to bear the table.	15 Likewise, the bars themselves he made from setim wood, and he surrounded them with gold.
16 And he made the vessels which were upon the table, his dishes, and his spoons, and his bowls, and his covers to cover withal, of pure gold.	16 And he made vessels for the diverse uses of the table, as well as the little cups, and bowls, and measuring cups, and the censers, from pure gold, in which the libations would be offered.
17 And he made the candlestick of pure gold: of beaten work made he the candlestick; his shaft, and his branch, his bowls, his knops, and his flowers, were of the same:	17 He also made the lampstand, formed from the finest gold. The branches, bowls, and little spheres, as well as the lilies, proceeded from its bar:
18 And six branches going out of the sides thereof; three branches of the candlestick out of the one side thereof, and three branches of the candlestick out of the other side thereof:	18 six on the two sides, three branches on one side, and three on the other.
19 Three bowls made after the fashion of almonds in one branch, a knop and a flower; and three bowls made like almonds in another branch, a knop and a flower: so throughout the six branches going out of the candlestick.	19 Three bowls, the size of a nut, were on each branch, with little spheres and lilies, and three bowls, in the likeness of a nut, were on the other branch, with the little spheres together with the lilies. The workmanship of the six branches, which proceeded from the shaft of the lampstand, was equal.
20 And in the candlestick were four bowls made like almonds, his knops, and his flowers:	20 Now on the shaft itself were four bowls, the size of a nut, and little spheres together with each one, and lilies,
21 And a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the same, according to the six branches going out of it.	21 and little spheres under two branches in three places, which together made six branches proceeding from one bar.
22 Their knops and their branches were of the same: all of it was one beaten work of pure gold.	22 Thus, both the little spheres and the branches were from the same thing: all hand-worked from the purest gold.
23 And he made his seven lamps, and his snuffers, and his snuffdishes, of pure gold.	23 He also made the seven lamps with their candle snuffers, and the vessels where the candles would be extinguished, from the finest gold.
24 Of a talent of pure gold made he it, and all the vessels thereof.	24 The lampstand with all its vessels weighed a talent of gold.
25 And he made the incense altar of shittim wood: the length of it was a cubit, and the breadth of it a cubit; it was foursquare; and two cubits was the height of it; the horns thereof were of the same.	25 He also made the altar of incense from setim wood, having one cubit on each of four sides, and in height, two. From its corners proceeded horns.
26 And he overlaid it with pure gold, both the top of it, and the sides thereof round about, and the horns of it: also he made unto it a crown of gold round about.	26 And he clothed it with the purest gold, with its grating, as well as the sides and the horns.
27 And he made two rings of gold for it under the crown thereof, by the two corners of it, upon the two sides thereof, to be places for the staves to bear it withal.	27 And for it he made a crown of gold all around, and two gold rings under the crown at each side, so that the bars might be put into them, and the altar could be carried.
28 And he made the staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold.	28 Now the bars themselves he also made from setim wood, and he covered them with layers of gold.
29 And he made the holy anointing oil, and the pure incense of sweet spices, according to the work of the apothecary.	29 He also composed the oil for the ointment of sanctification, and the incense, from the purest aromatics, with the skill of a perfumer.
