Exodus 37:13-22 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

13. Then he made four gold rings for the table. He attached them to the four corners of the table, where the four legs were.

14. The rings were put close to the frame around the top of the table. The rings held the poles that were used to carry the table.

15. The poles for carrying the table were made of acacia wood. They were covered with gold.

16. Then he made of pure gold all the things that were used on the table: the plates, bowls, cups and jars used for pouring the drink offerings.

17. Then he made the lampstand of pure gold. He hammered out its base and stand. Its flower-like cups, buds and petals were joined together in one piece with the base and stand.

18. There were three branches on one side of the lampstand and three branches on the other.

19. Each branch had three cups shaped like almond flowers. Each cup had a bud and a petal.

20. There were four more cups shaped like almond flowers on the lampstand itself. Each cup had its buds and petals.

21. Three pairs of branches went out from the lampstand. A bud was under the place where each pair was attached to the lampstand.

22. The buds, branches and lampstand were all one piece of pure, hammered gold.
