Exodus 37:17-24

Amplified Bible

¹⁷ Then he made the lampstand (menorah) of pure gold. He made the lampstand of hammered work, its base and its [center] shaft; its cups, its ^[a]calyxes, and its flowers were all of one piece with it. ¹⁸ There were six branches coming out of the sides of the lampstand, three branches from one side of the center shaft and three branches from the other side of it; ¹⁹ three cups shaped like almond blossoms, a calyx and a flower in one branch, and three cups shaped like almond blossoms, a calyx and a flower in the opposite branch—so for the six branches coming out of the center shaft of the lampstand. ²⁰ On the center shaft of the lampstand there were four cups shaped like almond blossoms, with calyxes and flowers [one at the top]; ²¹ and a calyx was under the first pair of branches coming out of it, and a calyx under the second pair of branches, coming out of it, and a calyx under the third pair of branches coming out of it, for the six branches coming out of the lampstand. ²² Their calyxes and their branches were of one piece with it; all of it was a single hammered work of pure gold. ²³ He made its seven lamps with its snuffers and its trays of pure gold. ²⁴ He made the lampstand and all its utensils from a talent of pure gold.^(A)
