A Arca da Aliança

1 Bezalel fez a arca com madeira de acácia, com um metro e dez centímetros de comprimento, setenta centímetros de largura e setenta centímetros de altura*. 2 Revestiu-a de ouro puro, por dentro e por fora, e fez uma moldura de ouro ao seu redor. 3 Fundiu quatro argolas de ouro para ela, prendendo-as a seus quatro pés, com duas argolas de um lado e duas do outro. 4 Depois fez varas de madeira de acácia, revestiu-as de ouro 5 e colocou-as nas argolas laterais da arca para que pudesse ser carregada. 6 Fez a tampa de ouro puro com um metro e dez centímetros de comprimento por setenta centímetros de largura. 7 Fez também dois querubins de ouro batido nas extremidades da tampa. 8 Fez ainda um querubim numa extremidade e o segundo na outra, formando uma só peça com a tampa. 9 Os querubins tinham as asas estendidas para cima, cobrindo com elas a tampa. Estavam de frente um para o outro, com o rosto voltado para a tampa.

A Mesa e seus Utensílios

10 Fez a mesa com madeira de acácia com noventa centímetros de comprimento, quarenta e cinco centímetros de largura e setenta centímetros de altura. 11 Revestiu-a de ouro puro e fez uma moldura de ouro ao seu redor. 12 Fez também ao seu redor uma borda com a largura de quatro dedos e uma moldura de ouro para essa borda. 13 Fundiu quatro argolas de ouro para a mesa e prendeu-as nos quatro cantos, onde estavam os seus quatro pés. 14 As argolas foram presas próximas da borda, para que sustentassem as varas usadas para carregar a mesa. 15 Fez as varas para carregar a mesa de madeira de acácia, revestidas de ouro. 16 E de ouro puro fez os utensílios para a mesa: seus pratos e recipientes para incenso, as tigelas e as bacias nas quais se derramam as ofertas de bebidas*.

O Candelabro de Ouro

17 Fez o candelabro de ouro puro e batido. O pedestal, a haste, as taças, as flores e os botões formavam com ele uma só peça. 18 Seis braços saíam do candelabro: três de um lado e três do outro. 19 Havia três taças com formato de flor de amêndoa, num dos braços, cada uma com botão e flor, e três taças com formato de flor de amêndoa no braço seguinte, cada uma com botão e flor. Assim era com os seis braços que saem do candelabro. 20 Na haste do candelabro havia quatro taças com formato de flor de amêndoa, cada uma com flor e botão. 21 Havia um botão debaixo de cada par dos seis braços que saíam do candelabro. 22 Os braços com seus botões formavam uma só peça com o candelabro; tudo feito de ouro puro e batido. 23 Fez de ouro puro suas sete lâmpadas, seus cortadores de pavio e seus apagadores. 24 Com trinta e cinco quilos* de ouro puro fez o candelabro com seus botões e todos esses utensílios.

O Altar do Incenso

25 Fez ainda o altar do incenso de madeira de acácia. Era quadrado, com quarenta e cinco centímetros de cada lado e noventa centímetros de altura; suas pontas formavam com ele uma só peça. 26 Revestiu de ouro puro a parte superior, todos os lados e as pontas, e fez uma moldura de ouro ao seu redor. 27 Fez também duas argolas de ouro de cada lado do altar, abaixo da moldura, para sustentar as varas utilizadas para carregá-lo, 28 e usou madeira de acácia para fazer as varas e revestiu-as de ouro. 29 Fez ainda o óleo sagrado para as unções e o incenso puro e aromático—obra de perfumista.

Making the Ark

1 Bezalel made the ark of acacia wood. Two cubits* and a half was its length, a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height. 2 And he overlaid it with pure gold inside and outside, and made a molding of gold around it. 3 And 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. 4 And he made poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold 5 and put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark to carry the ark. 6 And he made a mercy seat of pure gold. Two cubits and a half was its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth. 7 And he made two cherubim of gold. He made them of hammered work on the two ends of the mercy seat, 8 one 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. 9 The 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

10 He also made the table of acacia wood. Two cubits was its length, a cubit its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height. 11 And he overlaid it with pure gold, and made a molding of gold around it. 12 And he made a rim around it a handbreadth* wide, and made a molding of gold around the rim. 13 He cast for it four rings of gold and fastened the rings to the four corners at its four legs. 14 Close to the frame were the rings, as holders for the poles to carry the table. 15 He made the poles of acacia wood to carry the table, and overlaid them with gold. 16 And 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

17 He 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. 18 And 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; 19 three 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. 20 And on the lampstand itself were four cups made like almond blossoms, with their calyxes and flowers, 21 and a calyx of one piece with it under each pair of the six branches going out of it. 22 Their calyxes and their branches were of one piece with it. The whole of it was a single piece of hammered work of pure gold. 23 And he made its seven lamps and its tongs and its trays of pure gold. 24 He made it and all its utensils out of a talent* of pure gold.

Making the Altar of Incense

25 He 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. 26 He overlaid it with pure gold, its top and around its sides and its horns. And he made a molding of gold around it, 27 and 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. 28 And he made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold. 29 He made the holy anointing oil also, and the pure fragrant incense, blended as by the perfumer.
