1 Therefore, when all the multitude of the sons of Israel had gathered together, he said to them: “These are the things that the Lord has ordered to be done:
1 Moses assembled all the congregation of the children of Israel, and said to them, “These are the words which Yahweh has commanded, that you should do them.
2 For six days you shall do work; the seventh day, the Sabbath and the rest of the Lord, will be holy to you; whoever will have done any work in it shall be killed.
2 ‘Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be a holy day for you, a Sabbath of solemn rest to Yahweh: whoever does any work in it shall be put to death.
3 You shall not kindle a fire in any of your dwelling places throughout the day of the Sabbath.”
3 You shall kindle no fire throughout your habitations on the Sabbath day.’”
4 And Moses said to the entire crowd of the sons of Israel: “This is the word which the Lord has instructed, saying:
4 Moses spoke to all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying, “This is the thing which Yahweh commanded, saying,
5 Separate from among you the first-fruits to the Lord. Let all who are willing and have a ready soul offer these to the Lord: gold, and silver, and brass,
5 ‘Take from among you an offering to Yahweh. Whoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it as Yahweh’s offering: gold, silver, bronze,
6 hyacinth, and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine linen, the hair of goats,
6 blue, purple, scarlet, fine linen, goats’ hair,
7 and the skins of rams, dyed red, and violet skins, setim wood,
7 rams’ skins dyed red, sea cow hides, acacia wood,
8 and oil to prepare lights and to produce ointment, and most sweet incense,
8 oil for the light, spices for the anointing oil and for the sweet incense,
9 onyx stones and gems, to adorn the ephod and the breastplate.
9 onyx stones, and stones to be set for the ephod and for the breastplate.
10 And whoever among you is wise, let him come and make what the Lord has commanded:
10 “‘Let every wise-hearted man among you come, and make all that Yahweh has commanded:
11 the tabernacle, certainly, and its roof, and also the covering, the rings, and the panels with the bars, the tent pegs and the bases,
11 the tabernacle, its outer covering, its roof, its clasps, its boards, its bars, its pillars, and its sockets;
12 the ark and its bars, the propitiatory, and the veil that is drawn before it,
12 the ark, and its poles, the mercy seat, the veil of the screen;
13 the table with its bars and vessels, and the bread of the presence,
13 the table with its poles and all its vessels, and the show bread;
14 the lampstand to hold up the lights, its vessels and lamps, and the oil to the nourish the fire,
14 the lamp stand also for the light, with its vessels, its lamps, and the oil for the light;
15 the altar of incense and its bars, and the oil of unction, and the incense of aromatics, the tent at the door of the tabernacle,
15 and the altar of incense with its poles, the anointing oil, the sweet incense, the screen for the door, at the door of the tabernacle;
16 the altar of holocaust and its grate of brass, with the bars and vessels, the washtub and its base,
16 the altar of burnt offering, with its grating of bronze, its poles, and all its vessels, the basin and its base;
17 the curtains of the atrium, with the columns and the bases, the hanging at the doors of the vestibule,
17 the hangings of the court, its pillars, their sockets, and the screen for the gate of the court;
18 the tent pegs of the tabernacle and the atrium, with their little cords,
18 the pins of the tabernacle, the pins of the court, and their cords;
19 the vestments, which are to be used in the ministry of the Sanctuary, the vestments of Aaron, the high priest, as well as those of his sons, in order to exercise the priesthood to me.”
19 the finely worked garments for ministering in the holy place—the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons—to minister in the priest’s office.’”
20 And all the multitude of the sons of Israel, departing from the sight of Moses,
20 All the congregation of the children of Israel departed from the presence of Moses.
21 offered the first-fruits to the Lord with a most ready and devout mind, to accomplish the work of the tabernacle of the testimony. Whatever was needed for worship and for the holy vestments,
21 They came, everyone whose heart stirred him up, and everyone whom his spirit made willing, and brought Yahweh’s offering for the work of the Tent of Meeting, and for all of its service, and for the holy garments.
22 men along with women provided: arm bands and earrings, rings and bracelets. And every vessel of gold was separated, to be donated to the Lord.
22 They came, both men and women, as many as were willing-hearted, and brought brooches, earrings, signet rings, and armlets, all jewels of gold; even every man who offered an offering of gold to Yahweh.
23 If anyone had hyacinth, and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, fine linen and the hair of goats, the skins of rams, dyed red, and violet skins,
23 Everyone with whom was found blue, purple, scarlet, fine linen, goats’ hair, rams’ skins dyed red, and sea cow hides, brought them.
24 metal of silver and brass, they offered it to the Lord, along with setim wood for various uses.
24 Everyone who offered an offering of silver and bronze brought Yahweh’s offering; and everyone with whom was found acacia wood for any work of the service, brought it.
25 But the skillful women also gave whatever they had spun: hyacinth, purple, and vermillion, as well as fine linen,
25 All the women who were wise-hearted spun with their hands, and brought that which they had spun: the blue, the purple, the scarlet, and the fine linen.
26 and the hair of goats, donating everything of their own accord.
26 All the women whose heart stirred them up in wisdom spun the goats’ hair.
27 Yet truly, the leaders offered onyx stones and gems, for the ephod and the breastplate,
27 The rulers brought the onyx stones and the stones to be set for the ephod and for the breastplate;
28 and aromatics and oil, to maintain the lights, and to prepare ointment, and also to produce incense with a most sweet odor.
28 with the spice and the oil for the light, for the anointing oil, and for the sweet incense.
29 All the men and women offered donations with a devout mind, so that the works might be done which the Lord had ordered by the hand of Moses. All the sons of Israel dedicated voluntary offerings to the Lord.
29 The children of Israel brought a free will offering to Yahweh; every man and woman whose heart made them willing to bring for all the work, which Yahweh had commanded to be made by Moses.
30 And Moses said to the sons of Israel: “Behold, the Lord has called by name Bezalel, the son of Uri, the son of Hur, from the tribe of Judah,
30 Moses said to the children of Israel, “Behold, Yahweh has called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.
31 and he has filled him with the Spirit of God, with wisdom, and understanding, and knowledge, and all teaching,
31 He has filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding, in knowledge, and in all kinds of workmanship;
32 to design and to fashion, with gold and silver and brass,
32 and to make skillful works, to work in gold, in silver, in bronze,
33 and with engraving stones, and with the skill of a carpenter. Whatever can be skillfully invented,
33 in cutting of stones for setting, and in carving of wood, to work in all kinds of skillful workmanship.
34 he has given to his heart. It is likewise with Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach from the tribe of Dan.
34 He has put in his heart that he may teach, both he and Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan.
35 He has taught both of them wisdom, in order to do the work of carpentry, tapestry, and embroidery, from hyacinth, and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine linen, and every textile, and to discover whatever may be new.”
35 He has filled them with wisdom of heart to work all kinds of workmanship, of the engraver, of the skillful workman, and of the embroiderer, in blue, in purple, in scarlet, and in fine linen, and of the weaver, even of those who do any workmanship, and of those who make skillful works.
