Bible. Exodus
37:9. Spreading their wings, and covering the propitiatory, and looking
one towards the other, and towards it.
37:10. He made also the table of setim wood, in length two cubits, and
in breadth one cubit, and in height it was a cubit and a half.
37:11. And he overlaid it with the finest gold, and he made to it a
golden ledge round about,
37:12. And to the ledge itself he made a polished crown of gold, of four
fingers breadth, and upon the same another golden crown.
37:13. And he cast four rings of gold, which he put in the four corners
at each foot of the table,
37:14. Over against the crown: and he put the bars into them, that the
table might be carried.
37:15. The bars also themselves he made of setim wood, and overlaid them
with gold.
37:16. And the vessels for the divers uses of the table, dishes, bowls,
and cups, and censers of pure gold, wherein the libations are to be
offered.
37:17. He made also the candlestick of beaten work of the finest gold.
from the shaft whereof its branches, its cups, and bowls, and lilies
came out:
37:18: Six on the two sides: three branches on one side, and three on
the other.
37:19. Three cups in manner of a nut on each branch, and bowls withal
and lilies: and three cups of the fashion of a nut in another branch,
and bowls withal and lilies. The work of the six branches, that went out
from the shaft of the candlestick was equal.
37:20. And in the shaft itself were four cups after the manner of a nut,
and bowls withal at every one, and lilies:
37:21. And bowls under two branches in three places, which together made
six branches going out from one shaft.
37:22. So both the bowls, and the branches were of the same, all beaten
work of the purest gold.
37:23. He made also the seven lamps with their snuffers, and the vessels
where the snuffings were to be put out, of the purest gold.
37:24. The candlestick with all the vessels thereof weighed a talent of
gold.
37:25. He made also the alter of incense of setim wood, being a cubit on
every side foursquare, and in height two cubits: from the corners of
which went out horns.
37:26. And he overlaid it with the purest gold, with its grate, and the
sides, and the horns.
37:27. And he made to it a crown of gold round about, and two golden
rings under the crown at each side, that the bars might be put into
them, and the altar be carried.
37:28. And the bars themselves he made also of setim wood, and overlaid
them with plates of gold.
37:29. He compounded also the oil for the ointment of sanctification,
and incense of the purest spices, according to the work of a perfumer.
Exodus Chapter 38
He maketh the altar of holocaust. The brazen laver. The court with its
pillars and hangings. The sum of what the people offered.
38:1. He made also the altar of holocaust of setim wood, five cubits
square, and three in height:
38:2. The horns whereof went out from the corners, and he overlaid it
with plates of brass.
