1. Bezalel made the Holy Box from acacia wood. The Box was 2 1/2 cubits long, 1 1/2 cubits wide, and 1 1/2 cubits high.

2. He covered the inside and outside of the Box with pure gold. Then he put gold trim around the Box.

3. He made four rings of gold and put them on the four corners. These rings were used for carrying the Box. There were two rings on each side.

4. Then he made the poles for carrying the Box. He used acacia wood and covered the poles with pure gold.

5. He put the poles through the rings on each side of the Box.

6. Then he made the mercy-cover from pure gold. It was 2 1/2 cubits long and 1 1/2 cubits wide.

7. Then Bezalel hammered gold to make two Cherub angels. He put the Cherub angels on each end of the mercy-cover.

8. He put one angel on one end and the other angel on the other end. The angels were joined together with the mercy-cover to make one piece.

9. The wings of the angels were spread up toward the sky. The angels covered the Box with their wings and faced each other, looking toward the mercy-cover.
