Hebrews 9:1-5
Wycliffe Bible
9 [Soothly] And the former testament had justifyings of worship, and holy thing during for a time [and holy thing worldly, that is, during for a time].
2 For the tabernacle was made first, in which were candlesticks, and [a] board, and setting forth of loaves [and putting forth of loaves], which is said holy.
3 And after the veil, the second tabernacle, that is said sanctum sanctorum, that is, holy of holy things;
4 having a golden censer, and the ark of the testament, covered about on each side with gold, in which was a pot of gold having manna, and the rod of Aaron that flowered [and the rod of Aaron that flourished], and the tables of the testament;
5 on which things were cherubims of glory, overshadowing the propitiatory [upon which things were cherubims of glory, shadowing the propitiatory, or mercyable place]; of which things it is not now to say by all.

New Matthew Bible
The value and significance of the old testament, and how far the new excels it.
9 That first tabernacle indeed had observances, and the serving of God, and temporal holiness. 2 For a foretabernacle was made, where the candlestick and the table and the showbread were, which is called holy. 3 But within the second veil there was a tabernacle that is called holiest of all. 4 It had the golden censer, and the ark of the testament overlaid round about with gold, in which was the golden pot with manna, and Aaron’s rod that budded, and the tables of the testament. 5 Over the ark were the cherubims of glory covering the seat of grace – of which things we will not now speak particularly.

Authorized (King James) Version
9 Then verily the first covenant had also ordinances of divine service, and a worldly sanctuary. 2 For there was a tabernacle made; the first, wherein was the candlestick, and the table, and the shewbread; which is called the sanctuary. 3 And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all; 4 which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron’s rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant; 5 and over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercyseat; of which we cannot now speak particularly.
