Exodus 25
New Life Version
Gifts Given in Worship
25 The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Tell the people of Israel to take a gift for Me. Receive the gift for Me from every person whose heart makes him willing. 3 This is the gift you are to receive from them: Gold, silver and brass, 4 blue, purple and red cloth, fine linen, goat hair, 5 rams’ skins made red, badgers’ skins, acacia wood, 6 lamp oil, spices for the oil used in worship and for perfumes, 7 onyx stones, and stones to be set in the clothing of the religious leaders. 8 Let them make a holy place for Me, so I may live among them. 9 Make the meeting tent and all that is in it like the plans I am going to show you.
The Special Box of the Agreement
10 “They will make a special box of acacia wood, two and a half cubits long, one and a half cubits wide, and one and a half cubits tall. 11 Cover it inside and out with pure gold. And make a piece of gold to put on it all around. 12 Make four gold rings for it and put them on its four feet. Put two rings on one side of it and two rings on the other side. 13 Cut long pieces of acacia wood for carrying and cover them with gold. 14 Then put the pieces of wood through the rings on the sides of the box, for carrying the box. 15 The long pieces will stay in the rings of the box. They must not be taken out. 16 Put into the special box the Law which I will give you. 17 Then make a mercy-seat from pure gold, two and a half cubits long and one and a half cubits wide. 18 Make two cherubim out of beaten gold. Make them at the two ends of the mercy-seat. 19 Make one cherub on one end and one cherub on the other end. Make the top of the mercy-seat, with the cherubim at each end, of one piece. 20 The wings of the cherubim should spread up over the mercy-seat. Their faces should be toward each other, and toward the mercy-seat. 21 Put the mercy-seat on top of the box. Put the Law which I will give you into the box. 22 I will meet with you there. Between the two cherubim which are upon the special box of the Law, I will speak to you about all the Laws I will give you for the people of Israel.
The Table for the Holy Bread
23 “Make a table of acacia wood, two cubits long, one cubit wide, and one and a half cubits tall. 24 Cover it with pure gold and make a gold piece around it. 25 Make a piece around it as wide as a hand and put gold on the side of this piece all around. 26 Make four rings of gold for it. Put them on the four corners that are on the table’s four legs. 27 The rings will be close to the sides, to hold the long pieces of wood used to carry the table. 28 Cut the long, straight pieces of acacia wood and cover them with gold. The table will be carried with these. 29 Make its plates, its pots and its jars, for pouring your gifts of drink. Make them of pure gold. 30 And set the holy bread on the table before Me all the time.
31 “Then make a lamp-stand of pure gold. The lamp-stand and its base are to be made of beaten gold. Its cups, its buds, and its flowers will be of one piece with it. 32 Six branches will go out of its sides, three branches of the lamp-stand out of one side, and three branches out of its other side. 33 Three cups will be made to look like almond flowers, each with bud and flower on one branch, and three on the next branch. This is to be done for all six branches going out of the lamp-stand. 34 Four cups made to look like almond flowers, with their buds and flowers, will be put on the lamp-stand’s base. 35 Make a bud under each of the six branches going out from the place where the lamp-stand is put. 36 Their buds and their branches will all be one piece with the lamp-stand of pure, beaten gold. 37 Then make the seven lamps and put them where they will give light to the space in front of it. 38 The objects for putting out the light and their dishes will be of pure gold. 39 Make it and all the objects for it out of a piece of gold about half the weight of a man. 40 See that you make them by following the plan for them that was shown to you on the mountain.

25 Y JEHOVÁ habló á Moisés, diciendo:
2 Di á los hijos de Israel que tomen para mí ofrenda: de todo varón que la diere de su voluntad, de corazón, tomaréis mi ofrenda.
3 Y esta es la ofrenda que tomaréis de ellos: Oro, y plata, y cobre,
4 Y jacinto, y púrpura, y carmesí, y lino fino, y pelo de cabras,
5 Y cueros de carneros teñidos de rojo, y cueros de tejones, y madera de Sittim;
6 Aceite para la luminaria, especias para el aceite de la unción, y para el sahumerio aromático;
7 Piedras de onix, y piedras de engastes, para el ephod, y para el racional.
8 Y hacerme han un santuario, y yo habitaré entre ellos.
9 Conforme á todo lo que yo te mostrare, el diseño del tabernáculo, y el diseño de todos sus vasos, así lo haréis.
10 Harán también un arca de madera de Sittim, cuya longitud será de dos codos y medio, y su anchura de codo y medio, y su altura de codo y medio.
11 Y la cubrirás de oro puro; por dentro y por fuera la cubrirás; y harás sobre ella una cornisa de oro alrededor.
12 Y para ella harás de fundición cuatro anillos de oro, que pondrás á sus cuatro esquinas; dos anillos al un lado de ella, y dos anillos al otro lado.
13 Y harás unas varas de madera de Sittim, las cuales cubrirás de oro.
14 Y meterás las varas por los anillos á los lados del arca, para llevar el arca con ellas.
15 Las varas se estarán en los anillos del arca: no se quitarán de ella.
16 Y pondrás en el arca el testimonio que yo te daré.
17 Y harás una cubierta de oro fino, cuya longitud será de dos codos y medio, y su anchura de codo y medio.
18 Harás también dos querubines de oro, labrados á martillo los harás, en los dos cabos de la cubierta.
19 Harás, pues, un querubín al extremo de un lado, y un querubín al otro extremo del lado opuesto: de la calidad de la cubierta harás los querubines en sus dos extremidades.
20 Y los querubines extenderán por encima las alas, cubriendo con sus alas la cubierta: sus caras la una enfrente de la otra, mirando á la cubierta las caras de los querubines.
21 Y pondrás la cubierta encima del arca, y en el arca pondrás el testimonio que yo te daré.
22 Y de allí me declararé á ti, y hablaré contigo de sobre la cubierta, de entre los dos querubines que están sobre el arca del testimonio, todo lo que yo te mandaré para los hijos de Israel.
23 Harás asimismo una mesa de madera de Sittim: su longitud será de dos codos, y de un codo su anchura, y su altura de codo y medio.
24 Y la cubrirás de oro puro, y le has de hacer una cornisa de oro alrededor.
25 Hacerle has también una moldura alrededor, del ancho de una mano, á la cual moldura harás una cornisa de oro en circunferencia.
26 Y le harás cuatro anillos de oro, los cuales pondrás á las cuatro esquinas que corresponden á sus cuatro pies.
27 Los anillos estarán antes de la moldura, por lugares de las varas, para llevar la mesa.
28 Y harás las varas de madera de Sittim, y las cubrirás de oro, y con ellas será llevada la mesa.
29 Harás también sus platos, y sus cucharas, y sus cubiertas, y sus tazones, con que se libará: de oro fino los harás.
30 Y pondrás sobre la mesa el pan de la proposición delante de mí continuamente.
31 Harás además un candelero de oro puro; labrado á martillo se hará el candelero: su pie, y su caña, sus copas, sus manzanas, y sus flores, serán de lo mismo:
32 Y saldrán seis brazos de sus lados: tres brazos del candelero del un lado suyo, y tres brazos del candelero del otro su lado:
33 Tres copas en forma de almendras en el un brazo, una manzana y una flor; y tres copas, figura de almendras en el otro brazo, una manzana y una flor: así pues, en los seis brazos que salen del candelero:
34 Y en el candelero cuatro copas en forma de almendras, sus manzanas y sus flores.
35 Habrá una manzana debajo de los dos brazos de lo mismo, otra manzana debajo de los otros dos brazos de lo mismo, y otra manzana debajo de los otros dos brazos de lo mismo, en conformidad á los seis brazos que salen del candelero.
36 Sus manzanas y sus brazos serán de lo mismo, todo ello una pieza labrada á martillo, de oro puro.
37 Y hacerle has siete candilejas, las cuales encenderás para que alumbren á la parte de su delantera:
38 También sus despabiladeras y sus platillos, de oro puro.
39 De un talento de oro fino lo harás, con todos estos vasos.
40 Y mira, y hazlos conforme á su modelo, que te ha sido mostrado en el monte.
Exodus 25
New International Version
Offerings for the Tabernacle(A)
25 The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Tell the Israelites to bring me an offering. You are to receive the offering for me from everyone whose heart prompts(B) them to give. 3 These are the offerings you are to receive from them: gold, silver and bronze; 4 blue, purple and scarlet yarn(C) and fine linen; goat hair; 5 ram skins dyed red and another type of durable leather[a];(D) acacia wood;(E) 6 olive oil(F) for the light; spices for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense;(G) 7 and onyx stones and other gems to be mounted on the ephod(H) and breastpiece.(I)
8 “Then have them make a sanctuary(J) for me, and I will dwell(K) among them. 9 Make this tabernacle and all its furnishings exactly like the pattern(L) I will show you.
The Ark(M)
10 “Have them make an ark[b](N) of acacia wood—two and a half cubits long, a cubit and a half wide, and a cubit and a half high.[c] 11 Overlay(O) it with pure gold, both inside and out, and make a gold molding around it. 12 Cast four gold rings for it and fasten them to its four feet, with two rings(P) on one side and two rings on the other. 13 Then make poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold.(Q) 14 Insert the poles(R) into the rings on the sides of the ark to carry it. 15 The poles are to remain in the rings of this ark; they are not to be removed.(S) 16 Then put in the ark the tablets of the covenant law,(T) which I will give you.
17 “Make an atonement cover(U) of pure gold—two and a half cubits long and a cubit and a half wide. 18 And make two cherubim(V) out of hammered gold at the ends of the cover. 19 Make one cherub on one end and the second cherub on the other; make the cherubim of one piece with the cover, at the two ends. 20 The cherubim(W) are to have their wings spread upward, overshadowing(X) the cover with them. The cherubim are to face each other, looking toward the cover. 21 Place the cover on top of the ark(Y) and put in the ark the tablets of the covenant law(Z) that I will give you. 22 There, above the cover between the two cherubim(AA) that are over the ark of the covenant law, I will meet(AB) with you and give you all my commands for the Israelites.(AC)
The Table(AD)
23 “Make a table(AE) of acacia wood—two cubits long, a cubit wide and a cubit and a half high.[d] 24 Overlay it with pure gold and make a gold molding around it. 25 Also make around it a rim a handbreadth[e] wide and put a gold molding on the rim. 26 Make four gold rings for the table and fasten them to the four corners, where the four legs are. 27 The rings are to be close to the rim to hold the poles used in carrying the table. 28 Make the poles of acacia wood, overlay them with gold(AF) and carry the table with them. 29 And make its plates and dishes of pure gold, as well as its pitchers and bowls for the pouring out of offerings.(AG) 30 Put the bread of the Presence(AH) on this table to be before me at all times.
The Lampstand(AI)
31 “Make a lampstand(AJ) of pure gold. Hammer out its base and shaft, and make its flowerlike cups, buds and blossoms of one piece with them. 32 Six branches are to extend from the sides of the lampstand—three on one side and three on the other. 33 Three cups shaped like almond flowers with buds and blossoms are to be on one branch, three on the next branch, and the same for all six branches extending from the lampstand. 34 And on the lampstand there are to be four cups shaped like almond flowers with buds and blossoms. 35 One bud shall be under the first pair of branches extending from the lampstand, a second bud under the second pair, and a third bud under the third pair—six branches in all. 36 The buds and branches shall all be of one piece with the lampstand, hammered out of pure gold.(AK)
37 “Then make its seven lamps(AL) and set them up on it so that they light the space in front of it. 38 Its wick trimmers and trays(AM) are to be of pure gold. 39 A talent[f] of pure gold is to be used for the lampstand and all these accessories. 40 See that you make them according to the pattern(AN) shown you on the mountain.
