Exodus 27:20

¹The LORD spoke to Moses, saying, ²“Command the children of Israel, that they bring to you pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually. ³Outside of the veil of the Testimony, in the Tent of Meeting, Aaron shall keep it in order from evening to morning before the LORD continually. It shall be a statute forever throughout your generations. ⁴He shall keep in order the lamps on the pure gold lamp stand before the LORD continually.

⁵You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil. My cup runs over.

¹¹Then I asked him, “What are these two olive trees on the right side of the lamp stand and on the left side of it?”

¹²I asked him the second time, “What are these two olive branches, which are beside the two golden spouts that pour the golden oil out of themselves?”

¹³He answered me, “Don’t you know what these are?” I said, “No, my lord.”

¹⁴Then he said, “These are the two anointed ones who stand by the Lord^[+] of the whole earth.”

⁹“But the olive tree said to them, ‘Should I stop producing my oil, with which they honor God and man by me, and go to wave back and forth over the trees?’

³⁷the pure lamp stand, its lamps, even the lamps to be set in order, all its vessels, the oil for the light,

⁴These are the two olive trees and the two lamp stands, standing before the Lord of the earth.

³¹“You shall make a lamp stand of pure gold. The lamp stand shall be made of hammered work. Its base, its shaft, its cups, its buds, and its flowers shall be of one piece with it. ³²There shall be six branches going out of its sides: three branches of the lamp stand out of its one side, and three branches of the lamp stand out of its other side; ³³three cups made like almond blossoms in one branch, a bud and a flower; and three cups made like almond blossoms in the other branch, a bud and a flower, so for the six branches going out of the lamp stand; ³⁴and in the lamp stand four cups made like almond blossoms, its buds and its flowers; ³⁵and a bud under two branches of one piece with it, and a bud under two branches of one piece with it, and a bud under two branches of one piece with it, for the six branches going out of the lamp stand. ³⁶Their buds and their branches shall be of one piece with it, all of it one beaten work of pure gold. ³⁷You shall make its lamps seven, and they shall light its lamps to give light to the space in front of it.
