Exodus 37
Bible in Basic English
1And Bezalel made the ark of hard wood, two and a half cubits long, a cubit and a half wide and a cubit and a half high;
2Plating it inside and out with the best gold, and putting an edge of gold all round it.
3And he made four gold rings for its four angles, two on one side and two on the other,
4And rods of the same wood plated with gold.
5These rods he put in the rings at the sides of the ark, for lifting it.
6And he made the cover all of gold, two and a half cubits long and a cubit and a half wide.
7And he made two winged ones, hammered out of one bit of gold, for the two ends of the cover;
8Placing one at one end and one at the other; the winged ones were part of the cover.
9And their wings were stretched out over the cover; the faces of the winged ones were opposite one another and facing the cover.
10And he made the table of hard wood, two cubits long, a cubit wide and a cubit and a half high;
11Plating it with the best gold and putting a gold edge all round it.
12And he made a frame all round it about as wide as a man's hand, edged with gold all round.
13And he made four gold rings, and put the rings at the angles of its four feet.
14The rings were fixed under the frame to take the rods with which the table was to be lifted.
