17 (A)Then he made the lampstand of pure gold. He made the lampstand of hammered work, its base and its shaft; its cups, its [a]bulbs, and its flowers were of one piece with it. 18 There were six branches going out of its sides; three branches of the lampstand from the one side of it and three branches of the lampstand from the [b]other side of it; 19 three cups shaped like almond blossoms, a [c]bulb and a flower on one branch, and three cups shaped like almond blossoms, a [d]bulb and a flower on the other branch—so for the six branches going out of the lampstand. 20 And on the lampstand there were four cups shaped like almond blossoms, its [e]bulbs and its flowers; 21 and a [f]bulb was under the first pair of branches coming out of it, and a [g]bulb under the second pair of branches coming out of it, and a [h]bulb under the third pair of branches coming out of it, for the six branches coming out of the lampstand. 22 Their [i]bulbs and their branches were of one piece with it; the whole of it was a single hammered work of pure gold.
