Exode 37
Louis Segond
37 Betsaleel fit l'arche de bois d'acacia; sa longueur était de deux coudées et demie, sa largeur d'une coudée et demie, et sa hauteur d'une coudée et demie.
2 Il la couvrit d'or pur en dedans et en dehors, et il y fit une bordure d'or tout autour.
3 Il fondit pour elle quatre anneaux d'or, qu'il mit à ses quatre coins, deux anneaux d'un côté et deux anneaux de l'autre côté.
4 Il fit des barres de bois d'acacia, et les couvrit d'or.
5 Il passa les barres dans les anneaux sur les côtés de l'arche, pour porter l'arche.
6 Il fit un propitiatoire d'or pur; sa longueur était de deux coudées et demie, et sa largeur d'une coudée et demie.
7 Il fit deux chérubins d'or; il les fit d'or battu, aux deux extrémités du propitiatoire,
8 un chérubin à l'une des extrémités, et un chérubin à l'autre extrémité; il fit les chérubins sortant du propitiatoire à ses deux extrémités.
9 Les chérubins étendaient les ailes par-dessus, couvrant de leurs ailes le propitiatoire, et se regardant l'un l'autre; les chérubins avaient la face tournée vers le propitiatoire.
10 Il fit la table de bois d'acacia, sa longueur était de deux coudées, sa largeur d'une coudée, et sa hauteur d'une coudée et demie.
11 Il la couvrit d'or pur, et il y fit une bordure d'or tout autour.
12 Il y fit à l'entour un rebord de quatre doigts, sur lequel il mit une bordure d'or tout autour.
13 Il fondit pour la table quatre anneaux d'or, et mit les anneaux aux quatre coins, qui étaient à ses quatre pieds.
14 Les anneaux étaient près du rebord, et recevaient les barres pour porter la table.
15 Il fit les barres de bois d'acacia, et les couvrit d'or; et elles servaient à porter la table.
16 Il fit les ustensiles qu'on devait mettre sur la table, ses plats, ses coupes, ses calices et ses tasses pour servir aux libations; il les fit d'or pur.
17 Il fit le chandelier d'or pur; il fit le chandelier d'or battu; son pied, sa tige, ses calices, ses pommes et ses fleurs, étaient d'une même pièce.
18 Six branches sortaient de ses côtés, trois branches du chandelier de l'un des côtés, et trois branches du chandelier de l'autre côté.
19 Il y avait sur une branche trois calices en forme d'amande, avec pommes et fleurs, et sur une autre branche trois calices en forme d'amande, avec pommes et fleurs; il en était de même pour les six branches sortant du chandelier.
20 A la tige du chandelier il y avait quatre calices en forme d'amande, avec leurs pommes et leurs fleurs.
21 Il y avait une pomme sous deux des branches sortant du chandelier, une pomme sous deux autres branches, et une pomme sous deux autres branches; il en était de même pour les six branches sortant du chandelier.
22 Les pommes et les branches du chandelier étaient d'une même pièce; il était tout entier d'or battu, d'or pur.
23 Il fit ses sept lampes, ses mouchettes et ses vases à cendre d'or pur.
24 Il employa un talent d'or pur, pour faire le chandelier avec tous ses ustensiles.
25 Il fit l'autel des parfums de bois d'acacia; sa longueur était d'une coudée et sa largeur d'une coudée; il était carré, et sa hauteur était de deux coudées. Des cornes sortaient de l'autel.
26 Il le couvrit d'or pur, le dessus, les côtés tout autour et les cornes, et il y fit une bordure d'or tout autour.
27 Il fit au-dessous de la bordure deux anneaux d'or aux deux côtés; il en mit aux deux côtés, pour recevoir les barres qui servaient à le porter.
28 Il fit des barres de bois d'acacia, et les couvrit d'or.
29 Il fit l'huile pour l'onction sainte, et le parfum odoriférant, pur, composé selon l'art du parfumeur.

Making the Ark of the Testimony
37 (A)And Bezalel made the ark of acacia wood; its length was two and a half [a]cubits, and its width one and a half cubits, and its height one and a half cubits; 2 and he overlaid it with pure gold inside and out, and made a gold molding for it all around. 3 He cast four rings of gold for it on its four feet; even two rings on one side of it, and two rings on the [b]other side of it. 4 He made poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold. 5 He put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark to carry [c]it. 6 He made a [d]mercy seat of pure gold, two and a half [e]cubits [f]long and one and a half cubits [g]wide. 7 He made two cherubim of gold; he made them of hammered work [h]at the two ends of the mercy seat; 8 one cherub [i]at the one end and one cherub [j]at the other end; from one piece he made the mercy seat with the cherubim [k]at its two ends. 9 The cherubim had their wings spread upward, covering the mercy seat with their wings, with their faces toward each other; the faces of the cherubim were toward the mercy seat.
Making the Table
10 (B)Then he made the table of acacia wood, two [l]cubits [m]long and a cubit [n]wide and one and a half cubits [o]high. 11 He overlaid it with pure gold and made a gold molding for it all around. 12 He made a rim for it of a handbreadth all around and made a gold molding for its rim all around. 13 He cast four gold rings for it and put the rings on the four corners that were on its four feet. 14 Close to the rim were the rings, the holders for the poles to carry the table. 15 He made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold, to carry the table. 16 He made the utensils which were on the table, its [p]dishes and its pans and its offering bowls and its jars, with which to pour out drink offerings, of pure gold.
Making the Lampstand
17 (C)Then he made the lampstand of pure gold. He made the lampstand of hammered work, its base and its shaft; its cups, its [q]bulbs, and its flowers were [r]of the same piece. 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 [s]other side of it; 19 three cups shaped like almond blossoms, a [t]bulb and a flower in one branch, and three cups shaped like almond blossoms, a [u]bulb and a flower in the other branch—so for the six branches coming out of the lampstand. 20 In the lampstand there were four cups shaped like almond blossoms, its [v]bulbs and its flowers; 21 and a [w]bulb was under the first pair of branches coming out of it, and a [x]bulb under the second pair of branches coming out of it, and a [y]bulb under the third pair of branches coming out of it, for the six branches coming out of the lampstand. 22 Their [z]bulbs and their branches were of one piece with it; the whole of it was a single hammered work of pure gold. 23 He made its seven lamps with its tongs and its [aa]trays of pure gold. 24 He made it and all its utensils from a [ab]talent of pure gold.
Making the Altar of Incense
25 (D)Then he made the altar of incense of acacia wood: a cubit [ac]long and a cubit [ad]wide, square, and two cubits [ae]high; its horns were of one piece with it. 26 He overlaid it with pure gold, its top and its [af]sides all around, and its horns; and he made a gold molding for it all around. 27 He made two golden rings for it under its molding, on its two sides—on opposite sides—as holders for poles with which to carry it. 28 He made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold. 29 (E)And he made the holy anointing oil and the pure, fragrant incense of spices, the work of a perfumer.

King James Version
37 And Bezaleel made the ark of shittim wood: two cubits and a half was the length of it, and a cubit and a half the breadth of it, and a cubit and a half the height of it:
2 And he overlaid it with pure gold within and without, and made a crown of gold to it round about.
3 And 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.
4 And he made staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold.
5 And he put the staves into the rings by the sides of the ark, to bear the ark.
6 And 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.
7 And he made two cherubims of gold, beaten out of one piece made he them, on the two ends of the mercy seat;
8 One 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.
9 And 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.
10 And 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:
11 And he overlaid it with pure gold, and made thereunto a crown of gold round about.
12 Also he made thereunto a border of an handbreadth round about; and made a crown of gold for the border thereof round about.
13 And he cast for it four rings of gold, and put the rings upon the four corners that were in the four feet thereof.
14 Over against the border were the rings, the places for the staves to bear the table.
15 And he made the staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold, to bear the table.
16 And he made the vessels which were upon the table, his dishes, and his spoons, and his bowls, and his covers to cover withal, of pure gold.
17 And he made the candlestick of pure gold: of beaten work made he the candlestick; his shaft, and his branch, his bowls, his knops, and his flowers, were of the same:
18 And six branches going out of the sides thereof; three branches of the candlestick out of the one side thereof, and three branches of the candlestick out of the other side thereof:
19 Three bowls made after the fashion of almonds in one branch, a knop and a flower; and three bowls made like almonds in another branch, a knop and a flower: so throughout the six branches going out of the candlestick.
20 And in the candlestick were four bowls made like almonds, his knops, and his flowers:
21 And 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 going out of it.
22 Their knops and their branches were of the same: all of it was one beaten work of pure gold.
23 And he made his seven lamps, and his snuffers, and his snuffdishes, of pure gold.
24 Of a talent of pure gold made he it, and all the vessels thereof.
25 And he made the incense altar of shittim wood: the length of it was a cubit, and the breadth of it a cubit; it was foursquare; and two cubits was the height of it; the horns thereof were of the same.
26 And he overlaid it with pure gold, both the top of it, and the sides thereof round about, and the horns of it: also he made unto it a crown of gold round about.
27 And he made two rings of gold for it under the crown thereof, by the two corners of it, upon the two sides thereof, to be places for the staves to bear it withal.
28 And he made the staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold.
29 And he made the holy anointing oil, and the pure incense of sweet spices, according to the work of the apothecary.
