Exodus 25:18-22
New International Version
18 And make two cherubim(A) out of hammered gold at the ends of the cover. 19 Make one cherub on one end and the second cherub on the other; make the cherubim of one piece with the cover, at the two ends. 20 The cherubim(B) are to have their wings spread upward, overshadowing(C) the cover with them. The cherubim are to face each other, looking toward the cover. 21 Place the cover on top of the ark(D) and put in the ark the tablets of the covenant law(E) that I will give you. 22 There, above the cover between the two cherubim(F) that are over the ark of the covenant law, I will meet(G) with you and give you all my commands for the Israelites.(H)
Exodus 25:18-22
King James Version
18 And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat.
19 And make one cherub on the one end, and the other cherub on the other end: even of the mercy seat shall ye make the cherubims on the two ends thereof.
20 And the cherubims shall stretch forth their wings on high, covering the mercy seat with their wings, and their faces shall look one to another; toward the mercy seat shall the faces of the cherubims be.
21 And thou shalt put the mercy seat above upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee.
22 And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubims which are upon the ark of the testimony, of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel.
