thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee.

he made two cherubims of gold, beaten out of one piece made he them, on the
two ends of the mercy seat; [8] One cherub on the end on this side, and another
cherub on the other end on that side: out of the mercy seat made he the cherubims

he come not at all times into the holy place within the vail before the mercy
seat, which is upon the ark; that he die not: for I will appear in the cloud
upon the mercy seat.
[13] And he shall put the incense upon the fire before the LORD, that the
cloud of the incense may cover the mercy seat that is upon the testimony, that
he die not: [14] And he shall take of the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle
it with his finger upon the mercy seat eastward; and before the mercy seat
shall he sprinkle of the blood with his finger seven times. [15] Then shall
he kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the people, and bring his
blood within the vail, and do with that blood as he did with the blood of the
bullock, and sprinkle it upon the mercy seat, and before the mercy seat:
