25He made the altar of incense of acacia wood. Its length was one cubit, and its width one cubit—it was square—and its height was two cubits. Its horns were of one piece with it.

26He overlaid it with pure gold—its top, its sides all around, and its horns—and he made for it a gold molding all around.

27And he made for it two rings of gold under its rim, on its two side frames, on its two sides, as holders for poles with which to carry it.

28He made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold.
