New American Standard Bible
Chapter 37
2and he overlaid it with pure gold inside and out, and made a gold molding for it all around. 3He cast four rings of gold for it on its four feet; two rings on one side of it, and two rings on the other side of it. 4And he made poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold. 5He put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark, to carry it. 6He also made an atoning cover of pure gold, two and a half cubits long and one and a half cubits wide. 7And he made two cherubim of gold; he made them of hammered work at the two ends of the atoning cover: 8one cherub at the one end and one cherub at the other end; he made the cherubim of one piece with the atoning cover at the two ends. 9And the cherubim had their wings spread upward, covering the atoning cover with their wings, with their faces toward each other; the faces of the cherubim were toward the atoning cover.
10Then he made the table of acacia wood, two cubits long, a cubit wide, and one and a half cubits high.
11He overlaid it with pure gold, and made a gold molding for it all around.
12And he made a rim for it of a hand width all around, and made a gold molding for its rim all around.
13He also cast four gold rings for it and put the rings on the four corners that were on its four legs.
14Close by the rim were the rings, the holders for the poles to carry the table.
15And he made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold, to carry the table.
King James Version
Chapter 37
2And he overlaid it with pure gold within and without, and made a crown of gold to it round about. 3And he cast for it four rings of gold, to be set by the four corners of it; even two rings upon the one side of it, and two rings upon the other side of it. 4And he made staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold. 5And he put the staves into the rings by the sides of the ark, to bear the ark. 6And he made the mercy seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half was the length thereof, and one cubit and a half the breadth thereof. 7And he made two cherubims of gold, beaten out of one piece made he them, on the two ends of the mercy seat; 8One cherub on the end on this side, and another cherub on the other end on that side: out of the mercy seat made he the cherubims on the two ends thereof. 9And the cherubims spread out their wings on high, and covered with their wings over the mercy seat, with their faces one to another; even to the mercy seatward were the faces of the cherubims.
10And he made the table of shittim wood: two cubits was the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof:
11And he overlaid it with pure gold, and made thereunto a crown of gold round about.
12Also he made thereunto a border of an handbreadth round about; and made a crown of gold for the border thereof round about.
13And he cast for it four rings of gold, and put the rings upon the four corners that were in the four feet thereof.
14Over against the border were the rings, the places for the staves to bear the table.
15And he made the staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold, to bear the table.
