6. [Bezalel] made the mercy seat of pure gold, two cubits and a half its length and one cubit and a half its breadth.
7. And he made two cherubim of beaten gold; on the two ends of the mercy seat he made them,
8. One cherub at one end and one at the other end; of one piece with the mercy seat he made the cherubim at its two ends.
9. And the cherubim spread out their wings on high, covering the mercy seat with their wings, with their faces to each other, looking down to the mercy seat. [Heb. 9:23-26.]
10. Bezalel made the [showbread] table of acacia wood; it was two cubits long, a cubit wide, and a cubit and a half high.
11. He overlaid it with pure gold and made a molding of gold around its top.
12. And he made a border around it [just under the top] a handbreadth wide, and a molding of gold around the border.
13. And he cast for it four rings of gold and fastened the rings on the four corners that were at its four legs.
14. Close to the border were the rings, the places for the poles to pass through to carry the [showbread] table.
15. [Bezalel] made the poles of acacia wood to carry the [showbread] table and overlaid them with gold.
16. He made of pure gold the vessels which were to be on the table, its plates and dishes [for bread], its bowls and flagons for pouring [liquid sacrifices].
