3 and have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in every work,
and I have filled him with the breath mind Spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all kinds of workmanship,
4 to devise artistic work — to work in gold, and in silver, and in copper,

6 And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan; and in the heart of every one that is wise-hearted have I given wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded thee —
Behold, I myself have appointed with him Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan [He judged]; and in the heart of all who are wise-hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have enjoined you:
7 the tent of meeting and the ark of the testimony, and the mercy-seat that is thereupon, and all the utensils of the tent,
the Tent of Meeting, the ark of the testimony, the mercy seat that is on it, all the furniture of the Tent,
8 and the table and its utensils, and the pure lamp-stand and all its utensils, and the altar of incense;

9 and the altar of burnt-offering and all its utensils, and the laver and its stand;

10 and the garments of service, both the holy garments of Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to serve as priests;
the finely worked garments— the holy garments for Aaron [Light-bringer] the priest— the garments of his sons to minister in the priest’s office,

the anointing oil, and the incense of sweet spices for the holy place: according to all that I have enjoined you they shall do.”
12 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying,
13 And thou, speak thou unto the children of Israel, saying, Surely my sabbaths shall ye keep; for this is a sign between me and you throughout your generations, that ye may know that it is I, Jehovah, who do hallow you.
“Speak also to the children of Israel [God prevails], saying, ‘Most certainly you shall keep my Shab'totay ·Intermissions·: for it is a sign between me and you throughout all your generations; that you may know that I am Yahweh M’Kaddesh [Yahweh our Santifier / He sustains breathing who makes you holy].
14 Keep the sabbath, therefore; for it is holy unto you; every one that profaneth it shall certainly be put to death: yea, whoever doeth work on it, that soul shall be cut off from among his peoples.
You shall keep the Shabath ·Intermission· 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 Six days shall work be done; but on the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, holy to Jehovah: whoever doeth work on the sabbath day shall certainly be put to death.
Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day is a Shabath ·Intermission· of solemn rest, holy to Adonai. Whoever does any work on the Shabath ·Intermission· day shall surely be put to death.
16 And the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations — [it is] an everlasting covenant.
Therefore the children of Israel [God prevails] shall keep the Shabath ·Intermission·, to observe the Shabath ·Intermission· throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant ·binding contract between two or more parties·.
17 It shall be a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever; for [in] six days Jehovah made the heavens and the earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.
It is a sign between me and the children of Israel [God prevails] forever; for in six days Adonai made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.’”
