Exodus 37:1-7 New Century Version (NCV)

1. Bezalel made the Ark of acacia wood; it was forty-five inches long, twenty-seven inches wide, and twenty-seven inches high.

2. He covered it, both inside and out, with pure gold, and he put a gold strip around it.

3. He made four gold rings for it and attached them to its four feet, with two rings on each side.

4. Then he made poles of acacia wood and covered them with gold.

5. He put the poles through the rings on each side of the Ark to carry it.

6. Then he made a lid of pure gold that was forty-five inches long and twenty-seven inches wide.

7. Then Bezalel hammered gold to make two creatures with wings and attached them to each end of the lid.
