Its horns were of one piece with it.He overlaid it, its top, all around its sides, and its horns with pure gold. Then he made a gold molding all around it.He made two gold rings for it under the molding on two of its sides; he put these on opposite sides of it to be holders for the poles to carry it with.He made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold.

Place the gold altar for incense in front of the ark of the testimony. Put up the screen for the entrance to the tabernacle.
