Exodus 37:17-24

Modern English Version

Making the Lampstand^(A)

¹⁷ Then he made the lampstand of pure gold. He made it of hammered work, its base and its shaft. Its cups, its buds, and its blossoms were of the same piece. ¹⁸ Six branches were extending from its sides, three branches of the lampstand from one side of it, and three branches of the lampstand from the other side of it. ¹⁹ Three cups shaped like almond flowers, a bulb and a flower were on the first branch, and three cups shaped like almond flowers, a bulb and a flower were on the next branch, and the same for the six branches going out of the lampstand. ²⁰ In the lampstand there were four cups made like almond flowers, its bulbs and its flowers. ²¹ And a bulb was under the first two branches from it, and a bulb under the next two branches from it, and a bulb under the third two branches from it, according to the six branches coming out of it. ²² Their bulbs and their branches were of the same piece. All of it was one hammered work of pure gold.

²³ He made its seven lamps with its snuffers and its trays of pure gold. ²⁴ He made it and all of its utensils from a talent^[a] of pure gold.
