[37:3] He made four carrying rings of gold for it and attached them to its four feet, with two rings on each side.

[37:4] He made carrying poles of acacia wood, covered them with gold,

[37:5] and put them through the rings on each side of the Box.

[37:6] He made a lid of pure gold, 45 inches long and 27 inches wide.
