Exodus 25:15-17

The Voice

¹⁵ The poles must remain in the rings of the chest at all times; they are not to be removed. ¹⁶ Inside the chest you are to store the stone tablets that I will give you as a witness to our agreement. ¹⁷ Build a cover for the chest out of pure gold. It will be known as the seat of mercy—where sins are atoned—and it should be 45 inches long and 27 inches wide.
