20. And the cherubim shall stretch forth their wings on high, covering the mercy-seat with their wings, and their faces shall look one to another; towards the mercy-seat shall the faces of the cherubim be.
21. And thou shalt put the mercy-seat above upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee.
22. And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy-seat, from between the two cherubim which are upon the ark of the testimony, of all things which I will give thee in commandment to the children of Israel.
23. Thou shalt also make a table of shittim wood: its length shall be two cubits, and its breadth a cubit, and its hight a cubit and a half.
24. And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, and make to it a crown of gold around it.
25. And thou shalt make to it a border of an hand-breadth around it, and thou shalt make a golden crown to its border around it.
26. And thou shalt make for it four rings of gold, and put the rings in the four corners that are on its four feet.
27. Over against the border shall the rings be for places of the staffs to bear the table.
