1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
1 Y HABLÓ Jehová á Moisés, diciendo:
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Behold, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, from the tribe of Judah,
2 Mira, yo he llamado por su nombre á Bezaleel, hijo de Uri, hijo de Hur, de la tribu de Judá;
2 “Behold, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.
3 and I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with wisdom, and understanding, and knowledge in every craft,
3 Y lo he henchido de espíritu de Dios, en sabiduría, y en inteligencia, y en ciencia, y en todo artificio,
3 I have filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all kinds of workmanship,
4 in order to design whatever must be fabricated from gold, and silver, and brass,
4 Para inventar diseños, para trabajar en oro, y en plata, y en metal,
4 to devise skillful works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in bronze,
5 from marble, and precious stones, and various woods.
5 Y en artificio de piedras para engastar[las], y en artificio de madera; para obrar en toda suerte de labor.
5 and in cutting of stones for setting, and in carving of wood, to work in all kinds of workmanship.
6 And I have given to him, as his associate, Oholiab the son of Ahisamach, from the tribe of Dan. And I have placed wisdom in the heart of every artisan, so that they may make everything as I have instructed you:
6 Y he aquí que yo he puesto con él á Aholiab, hijo de Ahisamac, de la tribu de Dan: y he puesto sabiduría en el ánimo de todo sabio de corazón, para que hagan todo lo que te he mandado:
6 Behold, I myself have appointed with him Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan; and in the heart of all who are wise-hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded you:
7 the tabernacle of the covenant, and the ark of the testimony, and the propitiatory which is over it, and all the vessels of the tabernacle,
7 El tabernáculo del testimonio, y el arca del testimonio, y la cubierta que está sobre ella, y todos los vasos del tabernáculo;
7 the Tent of Meeting, the ark of the covenant, the mercy seat that is on it, all the furniture of the Tent,
8 and the table and its vessels, the most pure lampstand with its vessels, and the altars of incense
8 Y la mesa y sus vasos, y el candelero limpio y todos sus vasos, y el altar del perfume;
8 the table and its vessels, the pure lamp stand with all its vessels, the altar of incense,
9 and of holocaust and all their vessels, the washtub with its base,
9 Y el altar del holocausto y todos sus vasos, y la fuente y su basa;
9 the altar of burnt offering with all its vessels, the basin and its base,
10 the holy vestments for the ministry of Aaron the priest, and for his sons, so that they may execute their office of sacred rites,
10 Y los vestidos del servicio, y las santas vestiduras para Aarón el sacerdote, y las vestiduras de sus hijos, para que ejerzan el sacerdocio;
10 the finely worked garments—the holy garments for Aaron the priest, the garments of his sons to minister in the priest’s office—
11 the oil of unction, and the incense of aromatics in the Sanctuary. All the things that I have instructed you, they shall make.”
11 Y el aceite de la unción, y el perfume aromático para el santuario: harán conforme á todo lo que te he mandado.
11 the anointing oil, and the incense of sweet spices for the holy place: according to all that I have commanded you they shall do.”
12 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
12 Habló además Jehová á Moisés, diciendo:
12 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
13 “Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: See that you keep my Sabbath. For it is a sign between me and you among your generations, so that you may know that I am the Lord, who sanctifies you.
13 Y tú hablarás á los hijos de Israel, diciendo: Con todo eso vosotros guardaréis mis sábados: porque es señal entre mí y vosotros por vuestras edades, para que sepáis que yo soy Jehová que os santifico.
13 “Speak also to the children of Israel, saying, ‘Most certainly you shall keep my Sabbaths; for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations, that you may know that I am Yahweh who sanctifies you.
14 Keep my Sabbath, for it is holy to you. Whoever will have polluted it, shall die a death. Whoever will have done any work in it, his soul shall perish from the midst of his people.
14 Así que guardaréis el sábado, porque santo es á vosotros: el que lo profanare, de cierto morirá; porque cualquiera que hiciere obra alguna en él, aquella alma será cortada de en medio de sus pueblos.
14 You shall keep the Sabbath therefore, for it is holy to you. Everyone who profanes it shall surely be put to death; for whoever does any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
15 For six days you shall do work. On the seventh day, it is the Sabbath, a rest sanctified by the Lord. All who will have done work on this day shall die.
15 Seis días se hará obra, mas el día séptimo es sábado de reposo consagrado á Jehová; cualquiera que hiciere obra el día del sábado, morirá ciertamente.
15 Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest, holy to Yahweh. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day shall surely be put to death.
16 Let the sons of Israel keep the Sabbath, and let them celebrate it throughout their generations. It is an everlasting covenant
16 Guardarán, pues, el sábado los hijos de Israel: celebrándolo por sus edades por pacto perpetuo:
16 Therefore the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant.
17 between me and the sons of Israel, and a perpetual sign. For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and in the seventh he ceased from work.”
17 Señal es para siempre entre mí y los hijos de Israel; porque en seis días hizo Jehová los cielos y la tierra, y en el séptimo día cesó, y reposó.
17 It is a sign between me and the children of Israel forever; for in six days Yahweh made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.’”
18 And the Lord, having completed speaking in this way on Mount Sinai, gave to Moses two stone tablets of testimony, written with the finger of God.
18 Y dió á Moisés, como acabó de hablar con él en el monte de Sinaí, dos tablas del testimonio, tablas de piedra escritas con el dedo de Dios.
18 When he finished speaking with him on Mount Sinai, he gave Moses the two tablets of the covenant, stone tablets, written with God’s finger.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 31:18 Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (Psalm VII)

    We read that the law was written with the finger of God, and given through Moses, His holy servant: by which finger of God many understand the Holy Ghost. Wherefore if, by the fingers of God, we are right in understanding these same ministers filled with the Holy Ghost, by reason of this same Spirit which worketh in them, since …

    He also was sent forth when the Tabernacle was in making, and filled with wisdom the wise-hearted men who were with Bezaleel.

  3. Quotes verse 31:3 Basil of Caesarea, On the Holy Spirit (Chapter XIX)

    "The Spirit of God," it is said "hath made me," and God filled Bezaleel with "the divine Spirit of wisdom and understanding and knowledge." Such names as these are super-eminent and mighty, but they do not transcend His glory.
