Verse
Exodus - ch 25 v 1 - 20
- And the Lord said to Moses,
- Say to the children of Israel that they are to make me an offering; from every man who has the impulse in his heart take an offering for me.
- And this is the offering you are to take from them: gold and silver and brass;
- And blue and purple and red, and the best linen, and goats' hair;
- And sheepskins coloured red, and leather, and hard wood;
- Oil for the light, spices for the sweet-smelling oil, sweet perfumes for burning;
- Beryls and stones of value to be put on the ephod and on the priest's bag.
- And let them make me a holy place, so that I may be ever present among them.
- Make the House and everything in it from the designs which I will give you.
- And they are to make an ark of hard wood; two and a half cubits long, and a cubit and a half wide and high.
- It is to be plated inside and out with the best gold, with an edge of gold all round it
- And make four rings of gold for it, to be fixed on its four feet, two rings on one side of it and two on the other.
- And make rods of the same wood, plating them with gold.
- And put the rods through the rings at the sides of the ark, for lifting it.
- The rods are to be kept in the rings, and never taken out.
- Inside the ark you are to put the record which I will give you.
- And you are to make a cover of the best gold, two and a half cubits long and a cubit and a half wide.
- And at the two ends of the cover you are to make two winged ones of hammered gold,
- One at one end and one at the other; the winged ones are to be part of the cover.
- And their wings are to be outstretched over the cover, and the winged ones are to be opposite one another, facing the cover.
