¹ And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

^{2 Ref} `Speak unto the sons of Israel, and they take for Me a heave-offering; from every man whose heart impelleth him ye do take My heave-offering.

^{3 Ref} `And this `is' the heave-offering which ye take from them; gold, and silver, and brass,

^{4 Ref} and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and linen, and goats' `hair',

^{5 Ref} and rams' skins made red, and badgers' skins, and shittim wood,

^{6 Ref} oil for the light, spices for the anointing oil, and for the perfume of the spices,

^{7 Ref} shoham stones, and stones for setting for an ephod, and for a breastplate.

^{8 Ref} `And they have made for Me a sanctuary, and I have tabernacled in their midst;

^{9 Ref} according to all that which I am shewing thee, the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all its vessels, even so ye do make `it'.

^{10 Ref} `And they have made an ark of shittim wood; two cubits and a half its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height;

^{11 Ref} and thou hast overlaid it `with' pure gold, within and without thou dost overlay it, and thou hast made on it a ring of gold round about.
