Liber Exodus, 37

1. Fecit autem Beseleel et ar cam de lignis acaciae haben tem duos semis cubitos in longitudine et cubitum ac semissem in latitudine, altitudo quoque unius cubiti fuit et dimidii; vestivitque eam auro purissimo intus ac foris.

1. 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.

2. Et fecit illi coronam auream per gyrum,

2. And he overlaid it with pure gold within and without, and made a molding of gold around it.

3. conflans quattuor anulos aureos in quattuor pedibus eius; duos anulos in latere uno et duos in altero.

3. And he cast for it four rings of gold for its four corners, two rings on its one side and two rings on its other side.

4. Vectes quoque fecit de lignis acaciae, quos vestivit auro

4. And he made poles of acacia wood, and overlaid them with gold,

5. et quos misit in anulos, qui erant in lateribus arcae, ad portandum eam.

5. and put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark, to carry the ark.

6. Fecit et propitiatorium de auro mundissimo: duorum cubitorum et dimidii in longitudine et cubiti ac semis in latitudine.

6. And he made a mercy seat of pure gold; two cubits and a half was its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth.

7. Duos etiam cherubim ex auro ductili fecit ex utraque parte propitiatorii:

7. And he made two cherubim of hammered gold; on the two ends of the mercy seat he made them,

8. cherub unum ex summitate unius partis et cherub alterum ex summitate partis alterius; duos cherubim ex singulis summitatibus propitiatorii

8. one cherub on the one end, and one cherub on the other end; of one piece with the mercy seat he made the cherubim on its two ends.

9. extendentes alas sursum et tegentes alis suis propitiatorium seque mutuo et illud respicientes.

9. The cherubim spread out their wings above, overshadowing the mercy seat with their wings, with their faces one to another; toward the mercy seat were the faces of the cherubim.

10. Fecit et mensam de lignis acaciae in longitudine duorum cubitorum et in latitudine unius cubiti, quae habebat in altitudine cubitum ac semissem;

10. He also made the table of acacia wood; two cubits was its length, a cubit its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height;

11. circumdeditque eam auro mundissimo et fecit illi coronam auream per gyrum.

11. and he overlaid it with pure gold, and made a molding of gold around it.

12. Fecit ei quoque limbum aureum quattuor digitorum per circuitum et super illum coronam auream.

12. And he made around it a frame a handbreadth wide, and made a molding of gold around the frame.

13. Fudit et quattuor circulos aureos, quos posuit in quattuor angulis per singulos pedes mensae

13. He cast for it four rings of gold, and fastened the rings to the four corners at its four legs.

14. iuxta limbum; misitque in eos vectes, ut possit mensa portari.

14. Close to the frame were the rings, as holders for the poles to carry the table.

15. Ipsos quoque vectes fecit de lignis acaciae et circumdedit eos auro;

15. He made the poles of acacia wood to carry the table, and overlaid them with gold.

16. et vasa ad diversos usus mensae, acetabula, phialas et cyathos et crateras ex auro puro, in quibus offerenda sunt libamina.

16. And he made the vessels of pure gold which were to be upon the table, its plates and dishes for incense, and its bowls and flagons with which to pour libations.

17. Fecit et candelabrum ductile de auro mundissimo, basim et hastile eius; scyphi sphaerulaeque ac flores unum cum ipso erant:

17. He also made the lampstand of pure gold. The base and the shaft of the lampstand were made of hammered work; its cups, its capitals, and its flowers were of one piece with it.

18. sex in utroque latere, tres calami ex parte una et tres ex altera;

18. And there were six branches going out of its sides, three branches of the lampstand out of one side of it and three branches of the lampstand out of the other side of it;

19. tres scyphi in nucis modum in calamo uno sphaerulaeque simul et flores et tres scyphi instar nucis in calamo altero sphaerulaeque simul et flores. Aequum erat opus sex calamorum, qui procedebant de hastili candelabri.

19. three cups made like almonds, each with capital and flower, on one branch, and three cups made like almonds, each with capital and flower, on the other branch -- so for the six branches going out of the lampstand.

20. In ipso autem hastili erant quattuor scyphi in nucis modum sphaerulaeque et flores;

20. And on the lampstand itself were four cups made like almonds, with their capitals and flowers,

21. singulae sphaerulae sub binis calamis per loca tria, qui simul sex fiunt calami procedentes de hastili uno.

21. and a capital of one piece with it under each pair of the six branches going out of it.

22. Sphaerulae igitur et calami unum cum ipso erant, totum ductile ex auro purissimo.

22. Their capitals and their branches were of one piece with it; the whole of it was one piece of hammered work of pure gold.

23. Fecit et lucernas septem cum emunctoriis suis et vasa, ubi emuncta condantur, de auro mundissimo.

23. And he made its seven lamps and its snuffers and its trays of pure gold.

24. Talentum auri purissimi appendebat candelabrum cum omnibus vasis suis.

24. He made it and all its utensils of a talent of pure gold.

25. Fecit et altare thymiamatis de lignis acaciae habens per quadrum singulos cubitos et in altitudine duos; e cuius angulis procedebant cornua.

25. He made the altar of incense of acacia wood; its length was a cubit, and its breadth was a cubit; it was square, and two cubits was its height; its horns were of one piece with it.

26. Vestivitque illud auro purissimo cum craticula ac parietibus et cornibus.

26. He overlaid it with pure gold, its top, and its sides round about, and its horns; and he made a molding of gold round about it,

27. Fecitque ei coronam aureolam per gyrum et binos anulos aureos sub corona in duobus lateribus, ut mittantur in eos vectes, et possit altare portari.

27. and made two rings of gold on it under its molding, on two opposite sides of it, as holders for the poles with which to carry it.

28. Ipsos autem vectes fecit de lignis acaciae et operuit laminis aureis.

28. And he made the poles of acacia wood, and overlaid them with gold.

29. Composuit et oleum ad sanctificationis unguentum et thymiama de aromatibus mundissimis opere pigmentarii.

29. He made the holy anointing oil also, and the pure fragrant incense, blended as by the perfumer.
