The Ark of the Covenant
“They shall make an ark of acacia wood; two cubits and a half shall be its length, a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height.
-
And you shall put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark, to carry the ark by them.
-
The poles shall remain in the rings of the ark; they shall not be taken from it.
-
And you shall put into the ark the testimony which I shall give you.
-
And you shall put the mercy seat on the top of the ark; and in the ark you shall put the testimony that I shall give you.
-
There I will meet with you, and from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubim that are upon the ark of the testimony, I will speak with you of all that I will give you in commandment for the people of Israel.
-
And you shall hang the veil from the clasps, and bring the ark of the testimony in thither within the veil; and the veil shall separate for you the holy place from the most holy.
-
You shall put the mercy seat upon the ark of the testimony in the most holy place.
-
And you shall put it before the veil that is by the ark of the testimony, before the mercy seat that is over the testimony, where I will meet with you.
-
And you shall anoint with it the tent of meeting and the ark of the testimony,
-
the tent of meeting, and the ark of the testimony, and the mercy seat that is thereon, and all the furnishings of the tent,
-
the ark with its poles, the mercy seat, and the veil of the screen;

Making the Ark of the Covenant
Bez′alel made the ark of acacia wood; two cubits and a half was its length, a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height.
-
and put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark, to carry the ark.
-
the ark of the testimony with its poles and the mercy seat;
-
And you shall put in it the ark of the testimony, and you shall screen the ark with the veil.
-
And you shall put the golden altar for incense before the ark of the testimony, and set up the screen for the door of the tabernacle.
-
And he took the testimony and put it into the ark, and put the poles on the ark, and set the mercy seat above on the ark;
-
and he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up the veil of the screen, and screened the ark of the testimony; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
