Making the Table and the Lampstand

10 And he made the table of acacia wood, two cubits its length and a cubit its width and a cubit and a half its height. 11 And he overlaid it with pure gold, and he made for it a gold molding all around. 12 And he made for it a handbreadth rim all around, and he made a gold molding for its rim all around. 13 And he cast for it four gold rings, and he put the rings on the four corners where its four legs[a] were. 14 The rings were near the rim as holders[b] for the poles to carry the table. 15 And he made the poles of acacia wood, and he overlaid them with gold to carry the table. 16 And he made the vessels that were on the table—its plates and its ladles,[c] and its bowls and its pitchers with which libations were poured—of pure gold.

Making the Table

10 He(A) constructed the table of acacia wood, thirty-six inches long, eighteen inches wide, and twenty-seven inches high.[a] 11 He overlaid it with pure gold and made a gold molding all around it. 12 He made a three-inch[b] frame all around it and made a gold molding all around its frame. 13 He cast four gold rings for it and attached the rings to the four corners at its four legs. 14 The rings were next to the frame as holders for the poles to carry the table. 15 He made the poles for carrying the table from acacia wood and overlaid them with gold. 16 He also made the utensils that would be on the table out of pure gold: its plates and cups, as well as its bowls and pitchers for pouring drink offerings.
