  ¹Solomon the son of David was firmly established in his kingdom, and the LORD his God was with him, and made him exceedingly great.

  ²Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of hundreds, to the judges, and to every prince in all Israel, the heads of the fathers’ households.

  ³Then Solomon, and all the assembly with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon; for God’s Tent of Meeting was there, which the LORD’s servant Moses had made in the wilderness.

  ⁴But David had brought God’s ark up from Kiriath Jearim to the place that David had prepared for it; for he had pitched a tent for it at Jerusalem.

  ⁶Solomon went up there to the bronze altar before the LORD, which was at the Tent of Meeting, and offered one thousand burnt offerings on it.

  ²“Behold, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.

  ¹“Bezalel and Oholiab shall work with every wise-hearted man, in whom the LORD has put wisdom and understanding to know how to do all the work for the service of the sanctuary, according to all that the LORD has commanded.”

  ²Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab, and every wise-hearted man, in whose heart the LORD had put wisdom, even everyone whose heart stirred him up to come to the work to do it.

  ³They received from Moses all the offering which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, with which to make it. They kept bringing free will offerings to him every morning.

  ⁴All the wise men, who performed all the work of the sanctuary, each came from his work which he did.

  ⁵They spoke to Moses, saying, “The people have brought much more than enough for the service of the work which the LORD commanded to make.”

  ⁶Moses gave a commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, “Let neither man nor woman make anything else for the offering for the sanctuary.” So the people were restrained from bringing.

  ⁷For the stuff they had was sufficient to do all the work, and too much.

  ²He overlaid it with pure gold inside and outside, and made a molding of gold for it around it.

  ³He cast four rings of gold for it in its four feet—two rings on its one side, and two rings on its other side.

  ⁴He made poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold.

  ⁵He put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark, to bear the ark.

  ⁶He made a mercy seat of pure gold. Its length was two and a half cubits, and a cubit and a half its width.

  ⁷He made two cherubim of gold. He made them of beaten work, at the two ends of the mercy seat:

  ⁸one cherub at the one end, and one cherub at the other end. He made the cherubim of one piece with the mercy seat at its two ends.

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