8 And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying, 2 Speak unto Aaron, and say unto him, When thou [a]lightest the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light in front of the candlestick. 3 And Aaron did so; he [b]lighted the lamps thereof so as to give light in front of the candlestick, as Jehovah commanded Moses. 4 And this was the work of the candlestick, [c]beaten work of gold; unto the base thereof, and unto the flowers thereof, it was [d]beaten work: according unto the pattern which Jehovah had showed Moses, so he made the candlestick.

The Seven Lamps
8 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Speak to Aaron, and say to him: ‘When you are setting up the lamps, the seven lamps will give light in front of the face of the lampstand.’” 3 And Aaron did so; he set up the lampstand in front of the face of its lamps, just as Yahweh commanded Moses. 4 And this is how the lampstand was made,[a] a hammered-work of gold; from its base up to its blossom,[b] it was hammered-work according to the pattern that Yahweh showed Moses; so he made the lampstand.
