Exodus 25:32-40

32 sex calami egredientur de lateribus tres ex uno latere et tres ex altero

33 tres scyphi quasi in nucis modum per calamos singulos spherulaque simul et lilium et tres similiter scyphi instar nucis in calamo altero spherulaque et lilium hoc erit opus sex calamorum qui producendi sunt de hastili

34 in ipso autem candelabro erunt quattuor scyphi in nucis modum spherulaeque per singulos et lilia

35 spherula sub duobus calamis per tria loca qui simul sex fiunt procedentes de hastili uno

36 et spherae igitur et calami ex ipso erunt universa ductilia de auro purissimo

37 facies et lucernas septem et pones eas super candelabrum ut luceant ex adverso

38 emunctoria quoque et ubi quae emuncta sunt extinguantur fient de auro purissimo

39 omne pondus candelabri cum universis vasis suis habebit talentum auri mundissimi

40 inspice et fac secundum exemplar quod tibi in monte monstratum est
