- a cubit its length, and a cubit its breadth, (it is square), and two cubits its height; its horns `are' of the same.
- `And thou hast overlaid it with pure gold, its top, and its sides round about, and its horns; and thou hast made to it a crown of gold round about;
- and two rings of gold thou dost make to it under its crown; on its two ribs thou dost make `them', on its two sides, and they have become places for staves, to bear it with them.
- `And thou hast made the staves of shittim wood, and hast overlaid them with gold;

- every one passing over unto those numbered, from a son of twenty years and upwards, doth give the heave-offering of Jehovah;
- the rich doth not multiply, and the poor doth not diminish from the half-shekel, to give the heave-offering of Jehovah, to make atonement for your souls.
