Exodus 36

1 Then wrought Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every man that was wise-hearted, in whom Jehovah had put wisdom and understanding to know how to work all manner of work of the service of the sanctuary — according to all that Jehovah had commanded.

And Bezalel and Aholiab, and every wise-hearted man, in whom the Lord hath put wisdom and understanding to know how to do every manner of work for the service of the sanctuary, shall make all, just as the Lord hath commanded.

2 And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every man that was wise-hearted, in whose heart God had put wisdom, every one whose heart moved him to come to the work to do it.

And Moses called for Bezalel and Aholiab, and every wise-hearted man in whose heart the Lord had put wisdom, every one whose heart stirred him up to come near unto the work to do it:

3 And they took from Moses every heave-offering that the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, to make it. And they still brought him voluntary offerings morning by morning.

And they received from Moses the whole of the offering, which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, to make it; and these brought unto him yet more free-will offerings morning after morning.

4 And all the wise men that wrought all the work of the sanctuary came, every man from his work which they wrought,

And then came all the wise men, that wrought all the work of the sanctuary, every man from his own work which they were doing.

5 and spoke to Moses, saying, The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work that Jehovah commanded to be done.

And they said unto Moses, thus, The people bring more than is required for the service of the work, which the Lord hath commanded to make.

6 Then Moses gave commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed through the camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman make any more work for the heave-offering of the sanctuary! So the people were restrained from bringing;

And Moses gave the command, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman do any more work for the offering of the sanctuary: so the people were restrained from bringing [more].

7 for the work they had was sufficient for all the work to do it, and it was too much.

And the stuff prepared was sufficient for all the work to make it, and there was some over.

8 And every wise-hearted man among those that wrought the work of the tabernacle made ten curtains of twined byssus, and blue, and purple, and scarlet: [with] cherubim of artistic work did he make them.

And all the wise-hearted men, among those who wrought the work, made the tabernacle of ten curtains; of twisted linen thread, and blue, and purple, and scarlet yarn; with cherubim, of weaver's work, made he them.

9 The length of one curtain was twenty-eight cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits — one measure for all the curtains.

The length of each curtain was twenty-eight cubits, and the breadth of each curtain four cubits: there was one measure for all the curtains.

10 And he coupled five of the curtains one to another, and [the other] five curtains coupled he one to another.

Fifty loops made he on the one curtain, and fifty loops made he on the edge of the curtain which was in the second coupling: the loops were fixed opposite to each other.

13 And he made fifty clasps of gold, and coupled the curtains together with the clasps, so that the tabernacle became one.

And he made fifty hooks of gold; and he coupled the curtains together one unto the other with the hooks, and the tabernacle became thus one piece.

14 And he made curtains of goats' [hair] for the tent over the tabernacle: eleven curtains did he make them.

And he made curtains of goats' hair for a tent over the tabernacle; eleven curtains made he the same.

15 The length of one curtain was thirty cubits, and four cubits the breadth of one curtain — one measure for the eleven curtains.

The length of each curtain was thirty cubits, and four cubits was the breadth of each curtain: there was one measure for the eleven curtains.

16 And he coupled five of the curtains by themselves, and six of the curtains by themselves.

And he coupled five of the curtains by themselves, and six of the curtains by themselves.

17 And he made fifty loops on the edge of the outermost curtain in the coupling, and fifty loops made he on the edge of the curtain in the other coupling.

There were two tenons for every board, fitted in, one against the other: the like made he for all the boards of the tabernacle.

23 And he made the boards for the tabernacle: twenty boards for the south side southward;

24 and he made forty bases of silver under the twenty boards, two bases under one board, for its two tenons, and two bases under another board for its two tenons.

25 And for the other side of the tabernacle, on the side toward the north, he made twenty boards,

28 and he made two boards for the corners of the tabernacle at the rear;

29 and they were joined beneath, and were coupled together at the top thereof into one ring: thus he did to both of them in both the corners;

And they were closely fitting beneath, and they were closely joined together on the top, by means of one ring; thus he did to both of them, for both the corners.

30 and there were eight boards, and their silver bases: sixteen bases, under every board two bases.
