ANd the Lorde spake vnto Moses, say∣eng: [unspec A] speake vnto the chyldren of Israel that they brynge me an heaueoffrynge of euery man that gyueth it wyllyngly with his herte, ye shall take it. * 1.1 This is the heue∣offrynge which ye shal take of them, golde & syluer and brasse: yelowe sylke, purple, scar∣let, whyte sylke, and gootes here: rams skyn∣nes that are red, and the skynnes of taxus, & sethim wood, oyle for light, spices for anoyn∣tyng oyle, and for swete sence. Onix stones & stones to be set in the Ephod and in the brest lap. And let them make me a sanctuarie (that I may dwell among them.) And accordyng to all that I shewe the bothe after the facyon of the habitacion, and after the facyon of all the ornamentes therof, euen so shall ye make it. And they shall make an * 1.2 arke of sethim wood. ii. cubites and an halfe longe, a cubite and an halfe brode, and a cubit and an halfe hye. And thou shalt ouerlay it w^t pure golde, within and without shalte thou ouerlay it, & [unspec B] shalt make an hye vpon it a crowne of golde rounde aboute: And thou shalte cast. iiii. ryn∣ges of golde for it, & put them in the. iiii. cor∣ners therof. ii. rynges shall be in the one syde of it, &. ii. in the other. And thou shalte make barres of Sethim wood, and couer them w^t golde, and put the barres in the ryng{is} along by the sydes of the arke, to bere it withall. And the barres shall be in the rynges of the arke, and shal not be taken away from it. And thou shalte put in the arke, the wytnesse whiche I shall gyue the.

And thou shalte make a merciseate of pure golde. ii. cubites and an halfe longe, and a cubite and an halfe brode. And thou shalte make. ii. Cherubins of golde. Euen of a hole worke shalte thou make them in the. ii. endes of the mercyseate: and the one cherub shalte thou make on the ende, and the other Cherub on the other ende. Euen of the same mercy∣seate shall ye make Cherubyns in the. ii. en∣des therof. And the Cherubyns shall stretche theyr wynges abrode ouer an hye, couerynge the mercyseate with theyr wynges, and theyr faces shall loke one to an other: euen to the mercyseatewarde, shall the faces of the Che∣rubyns be. And thou shalte put the * 1.3 mercy∣seate aboue vpon the arke, & in the arke thou shalte put the wytnesse whiche I wyll gyue the. And from thence ☞ I wyll testifie vnto [unspec C] the and wyll comon with the from vpon the mercyseate: from bytwene the. ii. cherubyns whiche are vpon the arke of wytnesse, of all thynge whiche I wyll gyue the in cōmaun∣dement vnto the chyldren of Israel.
