Exodus 25:1 The LORD said to Moses,

Exodus 25:2 "Speak to the people of Israel, that they take for me an offering; from every man whose heart makes him willing you shall receive the offering for me.

Exodus 25:3 And this is the offering which you shall receive from them: gold, silver, and bronze,

Exodus 25:4 blue and purple and scarlet stuff and fine twined linen, goats' hair,

Exodus 25:5 tanned rams' skins, goatskins, acacia wood,

Exodus 25:6 oil for the lamps, spices for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense,

Exodus 25:7 onyx stones, and stones for setting, for the ephod and for the breastpiece.

Exodus 25:8 And let them make me a sanctuary, that I may dwell in their midst.

Exodus 25:9 According to all that I show you concerning the pattern of the tabernacle, and of all its furniture, so you shall make it.

Exodus 25:10 "They shall make an ark of acacia wood; two cubits and a half shall be its length, a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height.

Exodus 25:11 And you shall overlay it with pure gold, within and without shall you overlay it, and you shall make upon it a molding of gold round about.

Exodus 25:12 And you shall cast four rings of gold for it and put them on its four feet, two rings on the one side of it, and two rings on the other side of it.

Exodus 25:13 You shall make poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold.

Exodus 25:14 And you shall put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark, to carry the ark by them.

Exodus 25:15 The poles shall remain in the rings of the ark; they shall not be taken from it.

Exodus 25:16 And you shall put into the ark the testimony which I shall give you.

Exodus 25:17 Then you shall make a mercy seat of pure gold; two cubits and a half shall be its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth.

Exodus 25:18 And you shall make two cherubim of gold; of hammered work shall you make them, on the two ends of the mercy seat.

Exodus 25:19 Make one cherub on the one end, and one cherub on the other end; of one piece with the mercy seat shall you make the cherubim on its two ends.

Exodus 25:20 The cherubim shall spread out their wings above, overshadowing the mercy seat with their wings, their faces one to another; toward the mercy seat shall the faces of the cherubim be.

Exodus 25:21 And you shall put the mercy seat on the top of the ark; and in the ark you shall put the testimony that I shall give you.

Exodus 25:22 There I will meet with you, and from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubim that are upon the ark of the testimony, I will speak with you of all that I will give you in commandment for the people of Israel.

Exodus 25:23 "And you shall make a table of acacia wood; two cubits shall be its length, a cubit its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height.

Exodus 25:24 You shall overlay it with pure gold, and make a molding of gold around it.

Exodus 25:25 And you shall make around it a frame a handbreadth wide, and a molding of gold around the frame.

Exodus 25:26 And you shall make for it four rings of gold, and fasten the rings to the four corners at its four legs.

Exodus 25:27 Close to the frame the rings shall lie, as holders for the poles to carry the table.

Exodus 25:28 You shall make the poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold, and the table shall be carried with these.

Exodus 25:29 And you shall make its plates and dishes for incense, and its flagons and bowls with which to pour libations; of pure gold you shall make them.

Exodus 25:30 And you shall set the bread of the Presence on the table before me always.

Exodus 25:31 "And you shall make a lampstand of pure gold. The base and the shaft of the lampstand shall be made of hammered work; its cups, its capitals, and its flowers shall be of one piece with it;

Exodus 25:32 and there shall be 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;

Exodus 25:33 three cups made like almonds, each with capital and flower, on one branch, and three cups made like almonds, each with capital and flower, on the other branch--so for the six branches going out of the lampstand;

Exodus 25:34 and on the lampstand itself four cups made like almonds, with their capitals and flowers,

Exodus 25:35 and a capital of one piece with it under each pair of the six branches going out from the lampstand.

Exodus 25:37 And you shall make the seven lamps for it; and the lamps shall be set up so as to give light upon the space in front of it.

Exodus 25:38 Its snuffers and their trays shall be of pure gold.

Exodus 25:39 Of a talent of pure gold shall it be made, with all these utensils.

Exodus 25:40 And see that you make them after the pattern for them, which is being shown you on the mountain.
