[9] And the cherubims spread¹¹ out [their] wings on high, [and] covered with their wings over the mercy seat, with their faces one to another; [even] to the mercy seatward¹² were the faces of the cherubims.

[12] Also he made thereunto a border of an handbreadth¹⁴ round about; and made a crown of gold for the border thereof round about. [13] And he cast for it four rings of gold, and put the rings upon the four corners that [were] in the four feet thereof. [14] Over against the border were the rings, the places for the staves to bear the table. [15] And he made the staves [of] shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold, to bear the table.

[20] And in the candlestick [were] four bowls made like almonds¹⁸, his knops, and his flowers: [21] And a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the same, according to the six branches going out of it.¹⁹ [22] Their knops and their branches were²⁰ of the same: all of it [was] one beaten work²¹ [of] pure gold. [23] And he made his seven lamps, and his snuffers, and his snuffdishes, [of] pure gold.²² [24] [Of] a talent of pure gold made he it, and all the vessels thereof.

⥃The Altar of Incense ^{[ Exodus 30:1–10 ]}

[27] And he made two rings of gold for it under the crown thereof, by the two corners of it, upon the two sides thereof, to be places for the staves to bear it withal.
