And these are the things you must take: gold, and silver, and brass,
4
Violet and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, and fine linen, and goats’ hair,
5
And rams’ skins dyed red, and violet skins, and setim wood:
6
Oil to make lights: spices for ointment, and for sweetsmelling incense:
7
Onyx stones, and precious stones to adorn the ephod and the rational.
8
And they shall make me a sanctuary, and I will dwell in the midst of them:
9
According to all the likeness of the tabernacle which I will shew thee, and of all the vessels for the service thereof: and thus you shall make it:

And thou shalt overlay it with the purest gold within and without: and over it thou shalt make a golden crown round about:
12
And four golden rings, which thou shall put at the four corners of the ark: let two rings be on the one side, and two on the other.

And thou shalt put in the ark the testimony which I will give thee.

21
In which thou shalt put the testimony that I will give thee.
22
Thence will I give orders, and will speak to thee over the propitiatory, and from the midst of the two cherubims, which shall be upon the ark of the testimony, all things which I will command the children of Israel by thee.
