1Und Bezalel machte die Lade aus Akazienholz, zwei und eine halbe Elle lang, anderthalb Ellen breit und ebenso hoch, (2Mo 25,10)2und überzog sie mit feinem Golde innen und außen und machte ihr einen goldenen Kranz ringsherum.3Und er goss vier goldene Ringe für ihre vier Ecken, für jede Seite zwei,4und machte Stangen aus Akazienholz und überzog sie mit Gold5und tat sie in die Ringe an den Seiten der Lade, sodass man sie tragen konnte.6Und er machte den Gnadenstuhl aus feinem Golde, zwei und eine halbe Elle lang und anderthalb Ellen breit,7und zwei Cherubim aus getriebenem Golde fertigte er für die beiden Enden des Gnadenstuhls,8einen Cherub an diesem, den andern an jenem Ende. Am Gnadenstuhl arbeitete er die Cherubim heraus für seine beiden Enden.9Und die Cherubim breiteten ihre Flügel nach oben aus und bedeckten damit den Gnadenstuhl, und sie standen Antlitz gegen Antlitz und sahen auf den Gnadenstuhl.
Der Tisch für die Schaubrote
10Und er machte den Tisch aus Akazienholz, zwei Ellen lang, eine Elle breit und anderthalb Ellen hoch, (2Mo 25,23)11und überzog ihn mit feinem Golde und machte ihm einen goldenen Kranz ringsherum12und machte ihm eine Leiste ringsherum, eine Handbreit hoch, und einen goldenen Kranz um die Leiste.13Und er goss für ihn vier goldene Ringe und befestigte sie an den vier Ecken an seinen vier Füßen14dicht unter der Leiste, dass man die Stangen hineintun und den Tisch tragen könnte.15Und er machte die Stangen aus Akazienholz und überzog sie mit Gold, dass man den Tisch damit trüge.16Und er machte auch aus feinem Golde das Gerät für den Tisch: Schüsseln und Löffel, Kannen und Schalen, in denen man das Trankopfer darbringen sollte.
Der Leuchter
17Und er machte den Leuchter aus feinem, getriebenem Golde. Daran waren der Fuß und der Schaft, Kelche und Knäufe und Blumen. (2Mo 25,31)18Sechs Arme gingen von seinen Seiten aus, nach jeder Seite drei Arme.19Drei Kelche wie Mandelblüten waren an jedem Arm mit Knäufen und Blumen. So gingen die sechs Arme von dem Leuchter aus.20An dem Leuchter aber waren vier Kelche mit Knäufen und Blumen,21je ein Knauf war unter jedem Paar der sechs Arme, die von ihm ausgingen.22Knäufe und Arme gingen aus dem Leuchter hervor. Er war ganz und gar aus feinem Gold getrieben.23Und er machte die sieben Lampen mit ihren Dochtscheren und Pfannen aus feinem Gold.24Aus einem Zentner feinen Goldes machte er ihn und all sein Gerät.
Räucheraltar, Salböl und Räucherwerk
25Er machte auch den Räucheraltar aus Akazienholz, eine Elle lang und ebenso breit, viereckig, und zwei Ellen hoch. Seine Hörner waren aus einem Stück mit ihm. (2Mo 30,1; 2Mo 30,22)26Und er überzog ihn mit feinem Golde, seine Platte und seine Wände ringsherum und seine Hörner, und machte ihm einen Kranz ringsherum von Gold27und zwei goldene Ringe unter dem Kranz zu beiden Seiten, dass man Stangen hineintäte und ihn damit trüge.28Und die Stangen machte er aus Akazienholz und überzog sie mit Gold.29Und er machte das heilige Salböl und das Räucherwerk aus reiner Spezerei nach der Kunst des Salbenbereiters.
1Bezalel made the ark of acacia wood. Two cubits[1] and a half was its length, a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height. (2Mo 25,10)2And he overlaid it with pure gold inside and outside, and made a molding of gold around it.3And he cast for it four rings of gold for its four feet, two rings on its one side and two rings on its other side. (2Mo 25,12)4And he made poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold5and put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark to carry the ark.6And he made a mercy seat of pure gold. Two cubits and a half was its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth.7And he made two cherubim of gold. He made them of hammered work on the two ends of the mercy seat,8one cherub on the one end, and one cherub on the other end. Of one piece with the mercy seat he made the cherubim on its two ends.9The cherubim spread out their wings above, overshadowing the mercy seat with their wings, with their faces one to another; toward the mercy seat were the faces of the cherubim.
Making the Table
10He also made the table of acacia wood. Two cubits was its length, a cubit its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height. (2Mo 25,23)11And he overlaid it with pure gold, and made a molding of gold around it.12And he made a rim around it a handbreadth[2] wide, and made a molding of gold around the rim.13He cast for it four rings of gold and fastened the rings to the four corners at its four legs.14Close to the frame were the rings, as holders for the poles to carry the table.15He made the poles of acacia wood to carry the table, and overlaid them with gold.16And he made the vessels of pure gold that were to be on the table, its plates and dishes for incense, and its bowls and flagons with which to pour drink offerings.
Making the Lampstand
17He also made the lampstand of pure gold. He made the lampstand of hammered work. Its base, its stem, its cups, its calyxes, and its flowers were of one piece with it. (2Mo 25,31)18And there were six branches going out of its sides, three branches of the lampstand out of one side of it and three branches of the lampstand out of the other side of it;19three cups made like almond blossoms, each with calyx and flower, on one branch, and three cups made like almond blossoms, each with calyx and flower, on the other branch—so for the six branches going out of the lampstand.20And on the lampstand itself were four cups made like almond blossoms, with their calyxes and flowers,21and a calyx of one piece with it under each pair of the six branches going out of it.22Their calyxes and their branches were of one piece with it. The whole of it was a single piece of hammered work of pure gold.23And he made its seven lamps and its tongs and its trays of pure gold.24He made it and all its utensils out of a talent[3] of pure gold.
Making the Altar of Incense
25He made the altar of incense of acacia wood. Its length was a cubit, and its breadth was a cubit. It was square, and two cubits was its height. Its horns were of one piece with it. (2Mo 30,1)26He overlaid it with pure gold, its top and around its sides and its horns. And he made a molding of gold around it,27and made two rings of gold on it under its molding, on two opposite sides of it, as holders for the poles with which to carry it.28And he made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold.29He made the holy anointing oil also, and the pure fragrant incense, blended as by the perfumer. (2Mo 30,7; 2Mo 30,23; 2Mo 30,34)

King James Version
1And 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:2And he overlaid it with pure gold within and without, and made a crown of gold to it round about.3And 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.4And he made staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold.5And he put the staves into the rings by the sides of the ark, to bear the ark.6And 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.7And he made two cherubims of gold, beaten out of one piece made he them, on the two ends of the mercy seat;8One 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.9And 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.10And 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:11And he overlaid it with pure gold, and made thereunto a crown of gold round about.12Also he made thereunto a border of an handbreadth round about; and made a crown of gold for the border thereof round about.13And he cast for it four rings of gold, and put the rings upon the four corners that were in the four feet thereof.14Over against the border were the rings, the places for the staves to bear the table.15And he made the staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold, to bear the table.16And 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.17And 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:18And 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:19Three 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.20And in the candlestick were four bowls made like almonds, his knops, and his flowers:21And 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.22Their knops and their branches were of the same: all of it was one beaten work of pure gold.23And he made his seven lamps, and his snuffers, and his snuffdishes, of pure gold.24Of a talent of pure gold made he it, and all the vessels thereof.25And 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.26And 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.27And 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.28And he made the staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold.29And he made the holy anointing oil, and the pure incense of sweet spices, according to the work of the apothecary.
