And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, (25:1) com1

Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring me an offering: of every man that giveth it willingly with his heart ye shall take my offering (25:2)

And this [is] the offering which ye shall take of them; gold, and silver, and brass, (25:3)

And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' [hair], (25:4)

And rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins, and shittim wood, (25:5)

Oil for the light, spices for anointing oil, and for sweet incense, (25:6)

Onyx stones, and stones to be set in the ephod, and in the breastplate (25:7)

And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them. (25:8)

According to all that I show thee, [after] the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the instruments thereof, even so shall ye make [it]. (25:9)

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 (25:10)

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 (25:11)

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 (25:12)

And thou shalt make staves [of] shittim wood, and overlay them with gold (25:13)

And thou shalt put the staves into the rings by the sides of the ark, that the ark may be borne with them (25:14)

The staves shall be in the rings of the ark: they shall not be taken from it (25:15)

And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony which I shall give thee (25:16)

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 (25:17)

And thou shalt make two cherubims [of] gold, [of] beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat (25:18)

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 (25:19)

And the cherubims shall stretch forth [their] wings on high, covering the mercy seat with their wings, and their faces [shall look] one to another; toward the mercy seat shall the faces of the cherubims be (25:20)

And thou shalt put the mercy seat above upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee (25:21)

And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubims which [are] upon the ark of the testimony, of all [things] which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel (25:22)

Thou shalt also make a table [of] shittim wood: two cubits [shall be] the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof (25:23)

And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, and make thereto a crown of gold round about (25:24)

And thou shalt make unto it a border of an hand breadth round about, and thou shalt make a golden crown to the border thereof round about (25:25)

And thou shalt make for it four rings of gold, and put the rings in the four corners that [are] on the four feet thereof (25:26)

Over against the border shall the rings be for places of the staves to bear the table (25:27)

And thou shalt make the staves [of] shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, that the table may be borne with them (25:28)

And thou shalt make the dishes thereof, and spoons thereof, and covers thereof, and bowls thereof, to cover withal: [of] pure gold shalt thou make them (25:29)

And thou shalt set upon the table showbread before me alway (25:30)

And thou shalt make a candlestick [of] pure gold: [of] beaten work shall the candlestick be made: his shaft, and his branches, his bowls, his knops, and his flowers, shall be of the same (25:31)

And six branches shall come out of the sides of it; three branches of the candlestick out of the one side, and three branches of the candlestick out of the other side: (25:32)

Three bowls made like unto almonds, [with] a knop and a flower in one branch; and three bowls made like almonds in the other branch, [with] a knop and a flower: so in the six branches that come out of the candlestick (25:33)

And in the candlestick [shall be] four bowls made like unto almonds, [with] their knops and their flowers (25:34)

And [there shall be] 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 that proceed out of the candlestick (25:35)

Their knops and their branches shall be of the same: all it [shall be] one beaten work [of] pure gold (25:36)

And thou shalt make the seven lamps thereof: and they shall light the lamps thereof, that they may give light over against it (25:37)

And the tongs thereof, and the snuffdishes thereof, [shall be of] pure gold (25:38)

[Of] a talent of pure gold shall he make it, with all these vessels (25:39)

And look that thou make [them] after their pattern, which was showed thee in the mount (25:40)
