25:1 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
25:2 Speak to 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.
25:3 And this [is] the offering which ye shall take of them; gold, and silver, and brass,
25:4 And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats [hair],
25:5 And rams skins dyed red, and badgers skins, and shittim wood,
25:6 Oil for the light, spices for anointing oil, and for sweet incense,
25:7 Onyx stones, and stones to be set in the ephod, and in the breastplate.
25:8 And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them.
25:9 According to all that I show thee, [after] the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all its furniture, even so shall ye make [it].
25:10 And they shall make an ark [of] shittim wood: two cubits and a half [shall be] its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height.
25:11 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, within and without shalt thou overlay it, and shalt make upon it a crown of gold around it.
25:12 And thou shalt cast four rings of gold for it, and put [them] in its four corners; and two rings [shall be] in its one side, and two rings in its other side.
25:13 And thou shalt make staffs [of] shittim wood, and overlay them with gold.
25:14 And thou shalt put the staffs into the rings by the sides of the ark, that the ark may be borne with them.
25:15 The staffs shall be in the rings of the ark: they shall not be taken from it.
25:16 And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony which I shall give thee.
25:17 And thou shalt make a mercy seat [of] pure gold: two cubits and a half [shall be] its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth.
25:18 And thou shalt make two cherubim [of] gold, [of] beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat.
25:19 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 cherubim on its two ends.
25:20 And the cherubim 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 cherubim be.
25:21 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.
25:22 And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubim which [are] upon the ark of the testimony, of all [things] which I will give thee in commandment to the children of Israel.
25:23 Thou shalt also make a table [of] shittim wood: its length [shall be] two cubits, and its breadth a cubit, and its height a cubit and a half.
25:24 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, and make for it a crown of gold around it.
25:25 And thou shalt make for it a border of an hand breadth around it, and thou shalt make a golden crown to its border around it.
25:26 And thou shalt make for it four rings of gold, and put the rings in the four corners that [are] on its four feet.
25:27 Close to the border shall the rings be for places of the staffs to bear the table.
25:28 And thou shalt make the staffs [of] shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, that the table may be borne with them.
25:29 And thou shalt make its dishes, and its spoons, and its covers, and its bowls, to cover it with: [of] pure gold shalt thou make them.
25:30 And thou shalt set upon the table showbread before me always.
25:31 And thou shalt make a lampstand [of] pure gold: [of] beaten work shall the lampstand be made: its shaft, and its branches, its bowls, its knobs, and its flowers, shall be of the same.
25:32 And six branches shall extend from the sides of it; three branches of the lampstand from the one side, and three branches of the lampstand from the other side:
25:33 Three bowls made like almonds, [with] a knob and a flower in one branch; and three bowls made like almonds in the other branch, [with] a knob and a flower: so in the six branches that go out from the lampstand.
25:34 And in the lampstand [shall be] four bowls made like almonds, [with] their knobs and their flowers.
25:35 And [there shall be] a knob under two branches of the same, and a knob under two branches of the same, and a knob under two branches of the same, according to the six branches that go out from the lampstand.
25:36 Their knobs and their branches shall be of the same: all of it [shall be] one beaten work [of] pure gold.
25:37 And thou shalt make its seven lamps: and they shall light its lamps, that they may give light in front of it.
25:38 And its tongs, and its snuffdishes, [shall be of] pure gold.
25:39 [Of] a talent of pure gold shall he make it, with all these vessels.
25:40 And see that thou make [them] after their pattern, which was shown thee on the mount.
