Exodus 37:1-9 - Making The Ark

¹ And Bezaleel will make the ark acacia wood: two cubits and a half its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height ² And he will spread it over with pure gold within and without, and he will make to it a gold wreath round about ³ And he will cast for it four rings of gold over its four steps, and two rings upon its one rib, and two rings upon its second rib. ⁴ And he will make poles of acacia wood, and he will spread them over with gold. ⁵ And he will bring the bars into the rings over the ribs of the ark to lift up the ark

⁶ And he will make the cover of pure gold: two cubits and a half its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth. ⁷ And he will make two cherubs of gold of turned work; he made them from the two ends of the cover. ⁸ One cherub from the end from this, and one cherub from the end from this: out of the cover he made the cherubs out of its two ends. ⁹ And the cherubs shall be spreading out the wings from upwards, covering with their wings over the cover, and their faces each to his brother: to the cover were the faces of the cherubs.
