1. And Bezaleel made the ark of shittim wood: two cubits and a half was the length of it, and a cubit and a half the breadth of it, and a cubit and a half the hight of it:
2. And he overlaid it with pure gold within and without, and made a crown of gold to it round about.
3. And he cast for it four rings of gold, to be set by the four corners of it; even two rings upon the one side of it, and two rings upon the other side of it.
4. And he made staffs of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold.
5. And he put the staffs into the rings by the sides of the ark, to bear the ark.
6. And he made the mercy-seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half was the length of it, and one cubit and a half the breadth of it.
7. And he made two cherubim of gold, beaten out of one piece he made them, on the two ends of the mercy-seat;
8. One cherub on the end on this side, and another cherub on the other end on that side: out of the mercy-seat made he the cherubim on the two ends of it.
9. And the cherubim spread out their wings on high, and covered with their wings over the mercy-seat, with their faces one to another; even towards the mercy-seat were the faces of the cherubim.
10. And he made the table of shittim wood: two cubits was its length, and a cubit its breadth, and a cubit and a half its hight:
11. And he overlaid it with pure gold, and made to it a crown of gold round about.
12. Also he made to it a border of a hand-breadth round about; and made a crown of gold for its border round about.
