New Revised Standard NRS

1 The Lord said to Moses:

2 Tell the Israelites to take for me an offering; from all whose hearts prompt them to give you shall receive the offering for me.

3 This is the offering that you shall receive from them: gold, silver, and bronze,

4 blue, purple, and crimson yarns and fine linen, goats' hair,

5 tanned rams' skins, fine leather, acacia wood,

6 oil for the lamps, spices for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense,

7 onyx stones and gems to be set in the ephod and for the breastpiece.

8 And have them make me a sanctuary, so that I may dwell among them.

9 In accordance with all that I show you concerning the pattern of the tabernacle and of all its furniture, so you shall make it.

10 They shall make an ark of acacia wood; it shall be two and a half cubits long, a cubit and a half wide, and a cubit and a half high.

11 You shall overlay it with pure gold, inside and outside you shall overlay it, and you shall make a molding of gold upon it all around.

12 You shall cast four rings of gold for it and put them on its four feet, two rings on the one side of it, and two rings on the other side.

13 You shall make poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold.

14 And you shall put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark, by which to carry the ark.

15 The poles shall remain in the rings of the ark; they shall not be taken from it.

16 You shall put into the ark the covenant that I shall give you.

17 Then you shall make a mercy seat of pure gold; two cubits and a half shall be its length, and a cubit and a half its width.

18 You shall make two cherubim of gold; you shall make them of hammered work, at the two ends of the mercy seat.

19 Make one cherub at the one end, and one cherub at the other; of one piece with the mercy seat you shall make the cherubim at its two ends.

20 The cherubim shall spread out their wings above, overshadowing the mercy seat with their wings. They shall face one to another; the faces of the cherubim shall be turned toward the mercy seat.

21 You shall put the mercy seat on the top of the ark; and in the ark you shall put the covenant that I shall give you.

22 There I will meet with you, and from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubim that are on the ark of the covenant, I will deliver to you all my commands for the Israelites.

23 You shall make a table of acacia wood, two cubits long, one cubit wide, and a cubit and a half high.

24 You shall overlay it with pure gold, and make a molding of gold around it.

25 You shall make around it a rim a handbreadth wide, and a molding of gold around the rim.

26 You shall make for it four rings of gold, and fasten the rings to the four corners at its four legs.

27 The rings that hold the poles used for carrying the table shall be close to the rim.

28 You shall make the poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold, and the table shall be carried with these.

29 You shall make its plates and dishes for incense, and its flagons and bowls with which to pour drink offerings; you shall make them of pure gold.

30 And you shall set the bread of the Presence on the table before me always.

31 You shall make a lampstand of pure gold. The base and the shaft of the lampstand shall be made of hammered work; its cups, its calyxes, and its petals shall be of one piece with it;

32 and there shall be six branches going out of its sides, three branches of the lampstand out of one side of it and three branches of the lampstand out of the other side of it;

33 three cups shaped like almond blossoms, each with calyx and petals, on one branch, and three cups shaped like almond blossoms, each with calyx and petals, on the other branch—so for the six branches going out of the lampstand.

34 On the lampstand itself there shall be four cups shaped like almond blossoms, each with its calyxes and petals.

35 There shall be a calyx of one piece with it under the first pair of branches, a calyx of one piece with it under the next pair of branches, and a calyx of one piece with it under the last pair of branches—so for the six branches that go out of the lampstand.

36 Their calyxes and their branches shall be of one piece with it, the whole of it one hammered piece of pure gold.

37 You shall make the seven lamps for it; and the lamps shall be set up so as to give light on the space in front of it.

38 Its snuffers and trays shall be of pure gold.

39 It, and all these utensils, shall be made from a talent of pure gold.

40 And see that you make them according to the pattern for them, which is being shown you on the mountain.

4 blue, purple, and scarlet material; fine linen; goats' hair;

5 tanned rams' skins; dolphin skins; acacia wood;

6 lamp oil; spices for anointing oils and for fragrant incense;

7 onyx stones and other stones for setting in the Ephod and the Breastpiece.

8 Let them construct a Sanctuary for me so that I can live among them.

9 You are to construct it following the plans I've given you, the design for The Dwelling and the design for all its furnishings. The Chest

10 "First let them make a Chest using acacia wood: make it three and three-quarters feet long and two and one-quarter feet wide and deep

11 . Cover it with a veneer of pure gold inside and out and make a molding of gold all around it.

12 Cast four gold rings and attach them to its four feet, two rings on one side and two rings on the other.

13 Make poles from acacia wood and cover them with a veneer of gold

14 and insert them into the rings on the sides of the Chest for carrying the Chest.

15 The poles are to stay in the rings; they must not be removed.

16 "Place The Testimony that I give you in the Chest.

17 "Now make a lid of pure gold for the Chest, an Atonement-Cover, three and three-quarters feet long and two and one-quarter feet wide.

18 "Sculpt two winged angels out of hammered gold for either end of the Atonement-Cover,

19 one angel at one end, one angel at the other. Make them of one piece with the Atonement-Cover.

20 Make the angels with their wings spread, hovering over the Atonement-Cover, facing one another but looking down on it.

21 Set the Atonement-Cover as a lid over the Chest and place in the Chest The Testimony that I will give you.

22 I will meet you there at set times and speak with you from above the Atonement-Cover and from between the angel-figures that are on it, speaking the commands that I have for the Israelites. The Table

24 Cover it with a veneer of pure gold. Make a molding all around it of gold.

25 Make the border a handbreadth wide all around it and a rim of gold for the border.

26 Make four rings of gold and attach the rings to the four legs

27 parallel to the table top. They will serve as holders for the poles used to carry the Table.

28 Make the poles of acacia wood and cover them with a veneer of gold. They will be used to carry the Table.

32 Give it six branches, three from one side and three from the other;

33 put three cups shaped like almond blossoms, each with calyx and petals, on one branch, three on the next, and so on - the same for all six branches.

34 On the main stem of the Lampstand, make four cups shaped like almonds, with calyx and petals,

35 a calyx extending from under each pair of the six branches,

36 the entire Lampstand fashioned from one piece of hammered pure gold.
