-
7 Onyx stones, and stones to be set in the ephod, and in the breastplate.
-
8 And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them.
-
9 According to all that I shew thee, after the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the instruments thereof, even so shall ye make it.
-
10 And they shall make an ark of shittim wood: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.
-
11 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, within and without shalt thou overlay it, and shalt make upon it a crown of gold round about.
-
12 And thou shalt cast four rings of gold for it, and put them in the four corners thereof; and two rings shall be in the one side of it, and two rings in the other side of it.
-
13 And thou shalt make staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold.
-
14 And thou shalt put the staves into the rings by the sides of the ark, that the ark may be borne with them.
-
15 The staves shall be in the rings of the ark: they shall not be taken from it.
-
16 And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony which I shall give thee.
-
17 And thou shalt make a mercy seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof.
-
18 And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat.
-
19 And make one cherub on the one end, and the other cherub on the other end: even of the mercy seat shall ye make the cherubims on the two ends thereof.
