1 And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, that they take for me an offering: of every man whose heart maketh him willing ye shall take my offering.
3 And this is the offering which ye shall take of them: gold, and silver, and brass,
4 And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' `hair',
5 And rams' skins dyed red, and sealskins, and acacia wood,
6 Oil for the light, spices for the anointing oil, and for the sweet incense,
7 Onyx stones, and stones to be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate.
8 And let them make me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among them.
9 According to all that I show thee, the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the furniture thereof, even so shall ye make it.
10 And they shall make an ark of acacia wood: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.
