Exodus 25:18-25 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

18. Likewise, you shall make two Cherubim of formed gold, on both sides of the oracle.

19. Let one Cherub be on the one side, and the other be on the other.

20. And let them cover both sides of the propitiatory, spreading their wings and covering the oracle, and let them look out toward one another, their faces being turned toward the propitiatory, with which the ark is to be covered,

21. in which you will place the testimony that I will give to you.

22. From there, I will warn you and speak to you, above the propitiatory and from the middle of the two Cherubim, which will be over the ark of the testimony, about everything that I will command of the sons of Israel through you.

23. You shall also make a table of setim wood, having two cubits of length, and one cubit in width, and one cubit and one half cubits in height.

24. And you shall overlay it with the purest gold. And you shall make it with a gold lip all around,

25. and for the lip itself an engraved crown, four fingers high, and above it another little gold crown.
