25:1 And Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
25:2 Speak to the sons of Israel, that they take for me an offering: of every man whose heart makes him willing you+ will take my offering.
25:3 And this is the offering which you+ will take of them: gold, and silver, and bronze,
25:4 and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' [hair],
25:5 and rams' skins dyed red, and sealskins, and acacia wood,
25:6 oil for the light, spices for the anointing oil, and for the sweet incense,
25:7 onyx stones, and stones to be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate.
25:8 And let them make me a sanctuary, that I may stay among them.
25:9 According to all that I show you, the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all its furniture, even so you+ will make it.
25:10 And they will make an ark of acacia wood: two cubits and a half will be its length, and a cubit and a half its width, and a cubit and a half its height.
25:11 And you will overlay it with pure gold, inside and outside you will overlay it, and will make on it a crown of gold round about.
25:12 And you will cast four rings of gold for it, and put them in the four feet of it; and two rings will be on the one side of it, and two rings on the other side of it.
25:13 And you will make poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold.
25:14 And you will put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark, with which to bear the ark.
25:15 The poles will be in the rings of the ark: they will not be taken from it.
25:16 And you will put into the ark the testimony which I will give you.
25:17 And you will make a mercy-seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half [will be] its length, and a cubit and a half its width.
25:18 And you will make two cherubim of gold; of beaten work you will make them, at the two ends of the mercy-seat.
25:19 And make one cherub at the one end, and one cherub at the other end: of one piece with the mercy-seat you+ will make the cherubim on the two ends of it.
25:20 And the cherubim will spread out their wings on high, covering the mercy-seat with their wings, with their faces one to another; toward the mercy-seat will the faces of the cherubim be.
25:21 And you will put the mercy-seat above on the ark; and in the ark you will put the testimony that I will give you.
25:22 And there I will meet with you, and I will commune with you from above the mercy-seat, from between the two cherubim which are on the ark of the testimony, of all things which I will give you in commandment to the sons of Israel.
25:23 And you will make a table of acacia wood: two cubits [will be] its length, and a cubit its width, and a cubit and a half its height.
25:24 And you will overlay it with pure gold, and make thereto a crown of gold round about.
25:25 And you will make to it a border of a handbreadth round about; and you will make a golden crown to its border round about.
25:26 And you will make for it four rings of gold, and put the rings in the four corners that are on the four feet of it.
25:27 Close by the border will the rings be, for places for the poles to bear the table.
25:28 And you will make the poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold, that the table may be borne with them.
25:29 And you will make its dishes, and its spoons, and its flagons, and its bowls, with which to pour out: of pure gold you will make them.
25:30 And you will set on the table showbread before me always.
25:31 And you will make a lampstand of pure gold: of beaten work will the lampstand be made, even its base, and its shaft; its cups, its knops, and its flowers, will be of one piece with it.
25:32 And there will be six branches going out of its sides; three branches of the lampstand out of the one side of it, and three branches of the lampstand out of the other side of it:
25:33 three cups made like almond-blossoms in one branch, a knop and a flower; and three cups made like almond-blossoms in the other branch, a knop and a flower: so for the six branches going out of the lampstand:
25:34 and in the lampstand four cups made like almond-blossoms, its knops, and its flowers;
25:35 and a knop under two branches of one piece with it, and a knop under two branches of one piece with it, and a knop under two branches of one piece with it, for the six branches going out of the lampstand.
25:36 Their knops and their branches will be of one piece with it; the whole of it one beaten work of pure gold.
25:37 And you will make its lamps, seven: and the lamps will be set up and it will give light in front of it.
25:38 And its snuffers, and its snuffdishes, will be of pure gold.
25:39 Of a talent of pure gold it will be made, with all these vessels.
25:40 And see that you make them after their pattern, which has been shown to you in the mount.
