Exodus 25:23-36 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

23. “You are to construct a table of acacia wood, 36 inches long, 18 inches wide, and 27 inches high.

24. Overlay it with pure gold and make a gold molding all around it.

25. Make a three-inch frame all around it and make a gold molding for it all around its frame.

26. Make four gold rings for it, and attach the rings to the four corners at its four legs.

27. The rings should be next to the frame as holders for the poles to carry the table.

28. Make the poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold, and the table can be carried by them.

29. You are also to make its plates and cups, as well as its pitchers and bowls for pouring drink offerings. Make them out of pure gold.

30. Put the bread of the Presence on the table before Me at all times.

31. “You are to make a lampstand out of pure, hammered gold. It is to be made of one piece: its base and shaft, its ornamental cups, and its calyxes and petals.

32. Six branches are to extend from its sides, three branches of the lampstand from one side and three branches of the lampstand from the other side.

33. There are to be three cups shaped like almond blossoms, each with a calyx and petals, on the first branch, and three cups shaped like almond blossoms, each with a calyx and petals, on the next branch. It is to be this way for the six branches that extend from the lampstand.

34. There are to be four cups shaped like almond blossoms on the lampstand shaft along with its calyxes and petals.

35. For the six branches that extend from the lampstand, a calyx must be under the first pair of branches from it, a calyx under the second pair of branches from it, and a calyx under the third pair of branches from it.

36. Their calyxes and branches are to be of one piece. All of it is to be a single hammered piece of pure gold.
