And make four gold rings and put them at the four angles, on the four feet of the table;
The rings are to be fixed under the frame to take the rods with which the table is to be lifted.
Make rods of the same wood, plated with gold, for lifting the table.
And make the table-vessels, the spoons and the cups and the basins for liquids, all of the best gold.
And on the table at all times you are to keep my holy bread.
And you are to make a support for lights, of the best gold; its base and its pillar are to be of hammered gold; its cups, its buds, and its flowers are to be made of the same metal.
It is to have six branches coming out from its sides; three branches from one side and three from the other.
Every branch having three cups made like almond flowers, every cup with a bud and a flower, on all the branches.
And on the pillar, four cups like almond flowers, every one with its bud and its flower:
And under every two branches a bud, made with the branch, for all the six branches of it.
The buds and the branches are to be made of the same metal; all together one complete work of hammered gold.
Then you are to make its seven vessels for the lights, putting them in their place so that they give light in front of it.
And the instruments and trays for use with it are all to be of the best gold.
A talent of gold will be needed for it, with all these vessels.
And see that you make them from the design which you saw on the mountain.
— Exodus 25:26-1964, Bible in Basic English
“And thou shalt make for it four rings of gold, and put the rings in the four corners that are on the four feet thereof. Over against the border shall the rings be for places of the staves to bear the table. And thou shalt make the staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, that the table may be borne with them. And thou shalt make the dishes thereof, and spoons thereof, and covers thereof, and bowls thereof, to cover withal: of pure gold shalt thou make them. And thou shalt set upon the table shewbread before me alway. And thou shalt make a candlestick of pure gold: of beaten work shall the candlestick be made: his shaft, and his branches, his bowls, his knops, and his flowers, shall be of the same. And six branches shall come out of the sides of it; three branches of the candlestick out of the one side, and three branches of the candlestick out of the other side: Three bowls made like unto almonds, with a knop and a flower in one branch; and three bowls made like almonds in the other branch, with a knop and a flower: so in the six branches that come out of the candlestick. And in the candlestick shall be four bowls made like unto almonds, with their knops and their flowers. And there shall be a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the same, according to the six branches that proceed out of the candlestick. Their knops and their branches shall be of the same: all it shall be one beaten work of pure gold. And thou shalt make the seven lamps thereof: and they shall light the lamps thereof, that they may give light over against it. And the tongs thereof, and the snuffdishes thereof, shall be of pure gold. Of a talent of pure gold shall he make it, with all these vessels. And look that thou make them after their pattern, which was shewed thee in the mount. ”
And you are to make a table of the same wood, two cubits long, a cubit wide and a cubit and a half high,
Plated with the best gold, with a gold edge all round it;
And make a frame all round it, as wide as a man's hand, with a gold edge to the frame.
