Exodus 25:15-19

The poles shall remain in the rings of the ark; they shall not be removed from it.

You shall put into the ark the testimony which I shall give you.

“And you shall make an atoning cover of pure gold, two and a half cubits long and one and a half cubits wide.

You shall make two cherubim of gold; make them of hammered work at the two ends of the atoning cover.

Make one cherub at one end and one cherub at the other end; you shall make the cherubim of one piece with the atoning cover at its two ends.
