¹⁸ And you shall make two cherubim of gold; of hammered work you shall make them at the two ends of the mercy seat. ¹⁹ Make one cherub at one end, and the other cherub at the other end; you shall make the cherubim at the two ends of it of one piece with the mercy seat. ²⁰ And ^(A)the cherubim shall stretch out their wings above, covering the mercy seat with their wings, and they shall face one another; the faces of the cherubim shall be toward the mercy seat. ^21 (B)You shall put the mercy seat on top of the ark, and ^(C)in the ark you shall put the Testimony that I will give you. ²² And ^(D)there I will meet with you, and I will speak with you from above the mercy seat, from ^(E)between the two cherubim which are on the ark of the Testimony, about everything which I will give you in commandment to the children of Israel.
