Exodus 37:16-28 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

16. Then he made everything that was used on the table. He made the plates, the spoons, the bowls, and the pitchers from pure gold. The bowls and pitchers are used for pouring the drink offerings.

17. Then he made the lampstand. He used pure gold and hammered it to make the base and the shaft. Then he made flowers, buds, and petals and joined everything together into one piece.

18. The lampstand had six branches—three branches on one side and three branches on the other side.

19. Each branch had three flowers on it. These flowers were made like almond flowers with buds and petals.

20. The shaft of the lampstand had four more flowers. They were also made like almond flowers with buds and petals.

21. There were six branches—three branches coming out from each side of the shaft. And there was a flower with buds and petals below each of the three places where the branches joined the shaft.

22. The whole lampstand, with the flowers and branches, was made from pure gold. All this gold was hammered and joined together into one piece.

23. He made seven lamps for this lampstand. Then he made lamp snuffers and trays from pure gold.

24. He used 75 pounds of pure gold to make the lampstand and the things used with it.

25. He made the altar for burning incense from acacia wood. The altar was square. It was 1 cubit long, 1 cubit wide, and 2 cubits high. There were four horns on the altar. There was one horn on each corner. These horns were joined together with the altar to make one piece.

26. He covered the top, all the sides, and the horns with pure gold. Then he put gold trim around the altar.

27. He made two gold rings for the altar. He put the gold rings below the trim on each side of the altar. These gold rings held the poles for carrying the altar.

28. He made the poles from acacia wood and covered them with gold.
