1
And Bezaleel made the ark of shittim wood: two cubits and a half was the length of it, and a cubit and a half the breadth of it, and a cubit and a half the height of it:
2
And he overlaid it with pure gold within and without, and made a crown of gold to it round about.
3
And he cast for it four rings of gold, to be set by the four corners of it; even two rings upon the one side of it, and two rings upon the other side of it.
4
And he made staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold.
5
And he put the staves into the rings by the sides of the ark, to bear the ark.
6
And he made the mercy seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half was the length thereof, and one cubit and a half the breadth thereof.
7
And he made two cherubims of gold, beaten out of one piece made he them, on the two ends of the mercy seat;
8
One cherub on the end on this side, and another cherub on the other end on that side: out of the mercy seat made he the cherubims on the two ends thereof.
9
And the cherubims spread out their wings on high, and covered with their wings over the mercy seat, with their faces one to another; even to the mercy seatward were the faces of the cherubims.
