Making the Lampstand

^17 (A)Then he made the lampstand of pure gold. He made the lampstand of hammered work, its base and its shaft; its cups, its ^[a]bulbs, and its flowers were ^[b]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 ^[c]other side of it; ¹⁹ three cups shaped like almond blossoms, a ^[d]bulb and a flower in one branch, and three cups shaped like almond blossoms, a ^[e]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 ^[f]bulbs and its flowers; ²¹ and a ^[g]bulb was under the first pair of branches coming out of it, and a ^[h]bulb under the second pair of branches coming out of it, and a ^[i]bulb under the third pair of branches coming out of it, for the six branches coming out of the lampstand. ²² Their ^[j]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 ^[k]trays of pure gold. ²⁴ He made it and all its utensils from a ^[l]talent of pure gold.
