Ark of the Covenant

10 (A)They shall construct an ark of acacia wood two and a half (a)cubits (b)long, and one and a half cubits (c)wide, and one and a half cubits (d)high. 11 You shall (B)overlay it with pure gold, inside and out you shall overlay it, and you shall make a gold molding (e)around it. 12 You shall cast four gold rings for it and (f)fasten them on its four feet, and two rings shall be on one side of it and two rings on the other side of it. 13 You shall make poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold. 14 You shall put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark, to carry the ark with them. 15 The (C)poles shall (g)remain in the rings of the ark; they shall not be removed from it. 16 You shall (D)put into the ark the testimony which I shall give you.
