8 “The people must build a holy place for me so that I can live among them.
9 Build this Holy Tent and everything in it by the plan I will show you.
10 “Use acacia wood and build an Ark forty-five inches long, twenty-seven inches wide, and twenty-seven inches high.
11 Cover the Ark inside and out with pure gold, and put a gold strip all around it.
12 Make four gold rings for the Ark and attach them to its four feet, two rings on each side.
13 Then make poles from acacia wood and cover them with gold.
14 Put the poles through the rings on the sides of the Ark, and use these poles to carry it.
