18. six on the two sides, three branches on one side, and three on the other.
19. Three bowls, the size of a nut, were on each branch, with little spheres and lilies, and three bowls, in the likeness of a nut, were on the other branch, with the little spheres together with the lilies. The workmanship of the six branches, which proceeded from the shaft of the lampstand, was equal.
20. Now on the shaft itself were four bowls, the size of a nut, and little spheres together with each one, and lilies,
21. and little spheres under two branches in three places, which together made six branches proceeding from one bar.
22. Thus, both the little spheres and the branches were from the same thing: all hand-worked from the purest gold.
23. He also made the seven lamps with their candle snuffers, and the vessels where the candles would be extinguished, from the finest gold.
24. The lampstand with all its vessels weighed a talent of gold.
25. He also made the altar of incense from setim wood, having one cubit on each of four sides, and in height, two. From its corners proceeded horns.
26. And he clothed it with the purest gold, with its grating, as well as the sides and the horns.
27. And for it he made a crown of gold all around, and two gold rings under the crown at each side, so that the bars might be put into them, and the altar could be carried.
28. Now the bars themselves he also made from setim wood, and he covered them with layers of gold.
