1 And Bezaleel made the ark of acacia wood; two cubits and a half long, and a cubit and a half wide, and a cubit and a half high. 2 And he overlaid it with pure gold, inside and outside. And he made for it a wreath of gold all around. 3 And he cast four rings of gold for it, on its four feet; two rings on its one side and two rings on its second side. 4 And he made poles of acacia wood; and he overlaid them with gold. 5 And he put the poles into the rings, on the sides of the ark, to carry the ark. 6 And he made a mercyseat of pure gold; two cubits and a half long, and a cubit and a half wide. 7 And he made two cherubs of gold; he made them of beaten work, from the two ends of the mercyseat; 8 one cherub here at one end, and one cherub here at the other end. He made the cherubs from the mercyseat, from its two ends. 9 And the cherubs were spreading out wings above, covering the mercy-seat with their wings, their faces each toward the other; the faces of the cherubs were toward the mercyseat.
