2And he overlaid it with pure gold inside and out, and made a rim of gold to it round about.
3And he cast for it four rings of gold, to be set by the four corners of it; two rings on the one side of it, and two rings on the other side of it.

5And he put the staves into the rings by the sides of the ark, to bear the ark.

7And he made two cherubim of gold, beaten out of one piece, on the two ends of the mercy seat;
8One 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 its two ends.
9And the cherubim spread out their wings on high, and covered with their wings over the mercy seat, with their faces one to another; even toward the mercy seat were the faces of the cherubim.
10And he made the table of acacia wood: two cubits was its length, and a cubit its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height:
11And he overlaid it with pure gold, and made thereunto a rim of gold round about.
12Also he made thereunto a border of a handbreadth round about; and made a rim of gold for its border round about.
13And he cast for it four rings of gold, and put the rings upon the four corners that were in its four feet.
14Opposite the border were the rings, the places for the staves to bear the table.

19Three bowls made after the fashion of almonds in one branch, a knob and a flower; and three bowls made like almonds in another branch, a knob and a flower: so throughout the six branches going out of the lampstand.
20And in the lampstand were four bowls made like almonds, its knobs, and its flowers:
21And a knob under two branches of the same, and a knob under two branches of the same, and a knob under two branches of the same, according to the six branches going out of it.
22Their knobs and their branches were of the same: all of it was one beaten work of pure gold.
