1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
1 Y JEHOVÁ habló á Moisés, diciendo:
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.
2 Di á los hijos de Israel que tomen para mí ofrenda: de todo varón que la diere de su voluntad, de corazón, tomaréis mi ofrenda.
3 And this is the offering which ye shall take of them; gold, and silver, and brass;
3 Y esta es la ofrenda que tomaréis de ellos: Oro, y plata, y cobre,
4 and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats’ [hair];
4 Y jacinto, y púrpura, y carmesí, y lino fino, y [pelo] de cabras,
5 and rams’ skins dyed red, and sealskins, and acacia wood;
5 Y cueros de carneros teñidos de rojo, y cueros de tejones, y madera de Sittim;
6 oil for the light, spices for the anointing oil, and for the sweet incense;
6 Aceite para la luminaria, especias para el aceite de la unción, y para el sahumerio aromático;
7 onyx stones, and stones to be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate.
7 Piedras de onix, y piedras de engastes, para el ephod, y para el racional.
8 And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them.
8 Y hacerme han un santuario, y yo habitaré entre ellos.
9 According to all that I shew thee, the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the furniture thereof, even so shall ye make it.
9 Conforme á todo lo que yo te mostrare, el diseño del tabernáculo, y el diseño de todos sus vasos, así lo haréis.
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.
10 Harán también un arca de madera de Sittim, cuya longitud será de dos codos y medio, y su anchura de codo y medio, y su altura de codo y medio.
11 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, within and without shalt thou overlay it, and shalt make upon it a crown of gold round about.
11 Y la cubrirás de oro puro; por dentro y por fuera la cubrirás; y harás sobre ella una cornisa de oro alrededor.
12 And thou shalt cast four rings of gold for it, and put them in the four feet thereof; and two rings shall be on the one side of it, and two rings on the other side of it.
12 Y para ella harás de fundición cuatro anillos de oro, que pondrás á sus cuatro esquinas; dos anillos al un lado de ella, y dos anillos al otro lado.
13 And thou shalt make staves of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold.
13 Y harás unas varas de madera de Sittim, las cuales cubrirás de oro:
14 And thou shalt put the staves into the rings on the sides of the ark, to bear the ark withal.
14 Y meterás las varas por los anillos á los lados del arca, para llevar el arca con ellas.
15 The staves shall be in the rings of the ark: they shall not be taken from it.
15 Las varas se estarán en los anillos del arca: no se quitarán de ella.
16 And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony which I shall give thee.
16 Y pondrás en el arca el testimonio que yo te daré.
17 And thou shalt make a mercy-seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half [shall be ]the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof.
17 Y harás una cubierta de oro fino, cuya longitud [será] de dos codos y medio, y su anchura de codo y medio.
18 And thou shalt make two cherubim of gold; of beaten work shalt thou make them, at the two ends of the mercy-seat.
18 Harás también dos querubines de oro, labrados á martillo los harás, en los dos cabos de la cubierta.
19 And make one cherub at the one end, and one cherub at the other end: of one piece with the mercy-seat shall ye make the cherubim on the two ends thereof.
19 Harás, pues, un querubín al extremo de un lado, y un querubín al otro extremo del lado opuesto: de la calidad de la cubierta harás los querubines en sus dos extremidades.
20 And the cherubim shall spread out their wings on high, covering the mercy-seat with their wings, with their faces one to another; toward the mercy-seat shall the faces of the cherubim be.
20 Y los querubines extenderán por encima las alas, cubriendo con sus alas la cubierta: sus caras la una enfrente de la otra, mirando á la cubierta las caras de los querubines.
21 And thou shalt put the mercy-seat above upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee.
21 Y pondrás la cubierta encima del arca, y en el arca pondrás el testimonio que yo te daré.
22 And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy-seat, from between the two cherubim which are upon the ark of the testimony, of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel.
22 Y de allí me declararé á ti, y hablaré contigo de sobre la cubierta, de entre los dos querubines que están sobre el arca del testimonio, todo lo que yo te mandaré para los hijos de Israel.
23 And thou shalt make a table of acacia wood: two cubits [shall be ]the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.
23 Harás asimismo una mesa de madera de Sittim: su longitud será de dos codos, y de un codo su anchura, y su altura de codo y medio.
24 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, and make thereto a crown of gold round about.
24 Y la cubrirás de oro puro, y le has de hacer una cornisa de oro alrededor.
25 And thou shalt make unto it a border of an handbreadth round about, and thou shalt make a golden crown to the border thereof round about.
25 Hacerle has también una moldura alrededor, del ancho de una mano, á la cual moldura harás una cornisa de oro en circunferencia.
26 And thou shalt make for it four rings of gold, and put the rings in the four corners that are on the four feet thereof.
26 Y le harás cuatro anillos de oro, los cuales pondrás á las cuatro esquinas que corresponden á sus cuatro pies.
27 Close by the border shall the rings be, for places for the staves to bear the table.
27 Los anillos estarán antes de la moldura, por lugares de las varas, para llevar la mesa.
28 And thou shalt make the staves of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold, that the table may be borne with them.
28 Y harás las varas de madera de Sittim, y las cubrirás de oro, y con ellas será llevada la mesa.
29 And thou shalt make the dishes thereof, and the spoons thereof, and the flagons thereof, and the bowls thereof, to pour out withal: of pure gold shalt thou make them.
29 Harás también sus platos, y sus cucharas, y sus cubiertas, y sus tazones, con que se libará: de oro fino los harás.
30 And thou shalt set upon the table shewbread before me alway.
30 Y pondrás sobre la mesa el pan de la proposición delante de mí continuamente.
31 And thou shalt make a candlestick of pure gold: of beaten work shall the candlestick be made, even its base, and its shaft; its cups, its knops, and its flowers, shall be of one piece with it:
31 Harás además un candelero de oro puro; labrado á martillo se hará el candelero: su pie, y su caña, sus copas, sus manzanas, y sus flores, serán de lo mismo:
32 and there shall be six branches going out of the sides thereof; three branches of the candlestick out of the one side thereof, and three branches of the candlestick out of the other side thereof:
32 Y saldrán seis brazos de sus lados: tres brazos del candelero del un lado suyo, y tres brazos del candelero del otro su lado:
33 three cups made like almond-blossoms in one branch, a knop and a flower; and three cups made like almond-blossoms in the other branch, a knop and a flower: so for the six branches going out of the candlestick:
33 Tres copas en forma de almendras en el un brazo, una manzana y una flor; y tres copas, figura de almendras, en el otro brazo, una manzana y una flor: así pues, en los seis brazos que salen del candelero:
34 and in the candlestick four cups made like almond-blossoms, the knops thereof, and the flowers thereof:
34 Y en el candelero cuatro copas en forma de almendras, sus manzanas y sus flores.
35 and a knop under two branches of one piece with it, and a knop under two branches of one piece with it, and a knop under two branches of one piece with it, for the six branches going out of the candlestick.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… taken care that the types were found in things more exactly correspondent and more holy; and, above all, in the case of the Ark of the Covenant, on account of which the whole tabernacle of witness was formed. Now it was constructed thus: its length was two cubits and a half, its breadth one cubit and a half, its height …
… all things," and again, "All things of God." The word of truth has, however, frequently used this term in the case of the material, as when it says "Thou shalt make an ark of incorruptible wood;" and "Thou shalt make the candlestick of pure gold;" and "The first man is of the earth, earthy;" and "Thou art formed out of …

The Cherubim, too, which o'ershadow the mercy seat, are they not the work of men's hands?

… half, its breadth one cubit and a half, its height one cubit and a half; but such a number of cubits in no respect corresponds with their system, yet by it the type ought to have been, beyond everything else, clearly set forth. The mercy-seat also does in like manner not at all harmonize with their expositions.
The mercy-seat also does in like manner not at all harmonize with their expositions. Moreover, the table of shew-bread was two cubits in length, while its height was a cubit and a half.
