出エジプト記 37
Japanese Living Bible
37 次に、ベツァルエルは契約の箱を作りました。アカシヤ材で作り、長さ二キュビト半（一・一メートル）、幅一キュビト半、高さ一キュビト半に仕上げました。 2 内側にも外側にも純金を張り、周囲に金の縁飾りを巡らせました。 3 片側に二つずつ並ぶよう、四隅に金の環を四個つけました。 4 アカシヤ材でかつぎ棒を作って金をかぶせ、 5 箱の側面の環に通します。その棒をかついで箱を運ぶのです。
6 それから、純金で箱のふたを作りました。これは「恵みの座」と呼ばれます。長さ二キュビト半、幅一キュビト半です。 7 両端には、金をつちで打って作ったケルビムの像がついています。 8 ケルビムはふたの一部分で、切り離すことはできません。 9 ケルビムは互いに向かい合い、伸ばした翼が「恵みの座」に覆いかぶさって、それを見下ろす形になっていました。
10 次はテーブルです。同じくアカシヤ材で、長さ二キュビト（八十八センチ）、幅一キュビト、高さ一キュビト半です。 11 それに純金を張り、ぐるりと金の縁飾りをつけました。 12 周囲に一手幅（約七・四センチ）のわくをつけ、それに沿って金の縁飾りをつけました。 13 次に金の環を四つ作り、四本の足の、 14-15 縁飾りに近いところにつけ、アカシヤ材に金をかぶせたかつぎ棒を通すようにしました。 16 また、純金で鉢、水差し、皿、びんを作り、テーブルの上に置きました。
17 純金を打ち出して燭台を作りました。それは、台座、支柱、ともしび皿、アーモンドの花飾りが一体となるようにしています。 18 燭台の支柱には、両側から三本ずつ、計六本の枝が出るようにしました。 19 それぞれの枝は三つの花で飾りました。 20-21 支柱にも同じようにアーモンドの花飾りをつけました。三対の枝の間に二つ、下と上に二つ、合計四つです。 22 飾りと枝はみな、一かたまりの純金を打ち出して作りました。 23-24 枝の先に七つのともしび皿を作りつけ、芯切りばさみと灰皿とを純金で作りました。燭台全体は一タラント（三十四キログラム）の重さがあり、すべて純金です。
25 香の祭壇はアカシヤ材で作りました。一キュビト（四十四センチ）四方の正方形で、高さは二キュビト。隅に、壇の一部として角を彫りつけました。 26 全体に純金をかぶせ、へりには金の縁飾りをつけました。 27 壇の両側面、縁飾りの少し下に金の環を二個つけ、かつぎ棒を通しました。 28 かつぎ棒はアカシヤ材で、金をかぶせてあります。
29 次に、香りのよい香料を使って、聖なる油を調合しました。祭司に注ぐ油や、純粋な香として用いる油です。調合には高度の技術が必要でした。

The Ark(A)
37 Bezalel(B) made the ark(C) of acacia wood—two and a half cubits long, a cubit and a half wide, and a cubit and a half high.[a] 2 He overlaid it with pure gold,(D) both inside and out, and made a gold molding around it. 3 He cast four gold rings for it and fastened them to its four feet, with two rings on one side and two rings on the other. 4 Then he made poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold. 5 And he inserted the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark to carry it.
6 He made the atonement cover(E) of pure gold—two and a half cubits long and a cubit and a half wide. 7 Then he made two cherubim(F) out of hammered gold at the ends of the cover. 8 He made one cherub on one end and the second cherub on the other; at the two ends he made them of one piece with the cover. 9 The cherubim had their wings spread upward, overshadowing(G) the cover with them. The cherubim faced each other, looking toward the cover.(H)
The Table(I)
10 They[b] made the table(J) of acacia wood—two cubits long, a cubit wide and a cubit and a half high.[c] 11 Then they overlaid it with pure gold(K) and made a gold molding around it. 12 They also made around it a rim a handbreadth[d] wide and put a gold molding on the rim. 13 They cast four gold rings for the table and fastened them to the four corners, where the four legs were. 14 The rings(L) were put close to the rim to hold the poles used in carrying the table. 15 The poles for carrying the table were made of acacia wood and were overlaid with gold. 16 And they made from pure gold the articles for the table—its plates and dishes and bowls and its pitchers for the pouring out of drink offerings.
The Lampstand(M)
17 They made the lampstand(N) of pure gold. They hammered out its base and shaft, and made its flowerlike cups, buds and blossoms of one piece with them. 18 Six branches extended from the sides of the lampstand—three on one side and three on the other. 19 Three cups shaped like almond flowers with buds and blossoms were on one branch, three on the next branch and the same for all six branches extending from the lampstand. 20 And on the lampstand were four cups shaped like almond flowers with buds and blossoms. 21 One bud was under the first pair of branches extending from the lampstand, a second bud under the second pair, and a third bud under the third pair—six branches in all. 22 The buds and the branches were all of one piece with the lampstand, hammered out of pure gold.(O)
23 They made its seven lamps,(P) as well as its wick trimmers and trays, of pure gold. 24 They made the lampstand and all its accessories from one talent[e] of pure gold.
The Altar of Incense(Q)
25 They made the altar of incense(R) out of acacia wood. It was square, a cubit long and a cubit wide and two cubits high[f]—its horns(S) of one piece with it. 26 They overlaid the top and all the sides and the horns with pure gold, and made a gold molding around it. 27 They made two gold rings(T) below the molding—two on each of the opposite sides—to hold the poles used to carry it. 28 They made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold.(U)
29 They also made the sacred anointing oil(V) and the pure, fragrant incense(W)—the work of a perfumer.
