4 And he made staves of acacia-wood and overlaid them with gold.
5 And he put the staves into the rings on the sides of the ark, to carry the ark.
6 --And he made a mercy-seat of pure gold; two cubits and a half the length thereof, and one cubit and a half the breadth thereof.
7 And he made two cherubim of gold; of beaten work did he make them, at the two ends of the mercy-seat;
8 one cherub at the end of one side, and one cherub at the end of the other side; out of the mercy-seat he made the two cherubim at the two ends thereof.
9 And the cherubim spread out their wings over it, covering over with their wings the mercy-seat; and their faces were opposite to one another: the faces of the cherubim were turned toward the mercy-seat.
10 And he made the table of acacia-wood; two cubits the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.
