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.

Thus shall Bezaleel and Oholiab work, and every man that is wise-hearted, in whom Yahweh hath put wisdom and understanding, to know how to work any manner of workmanship for the holy service, —according to all that Yahweh 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.

So then Moses called upon Bezaleel, and upon Oholiab, and upon every man that was wise-hearted, in whose heart Yahweh had put wisdom, —every one whose heart lifted him up, to draw 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 took, from the presence of Moses, all the heave-offering which the sons of Israel had brought in for the work of the holy service to do it, —howbeit, they, brought in unto him yet more free-will offerings, morning by morning.

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

Then came in all the wise men who were doing all the holy work, —man by man from his 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 spake unto Moses, saying, More than enough, are the people bringing in, —[more] than is needed for the service pertaining to the work; which Yahweh hath commanded to be done.

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;

So Moses gave commandment and they passed a proclamation throughout the camp, saying, Let, neither man nor woman, make any more material for the holy heave-offering. So the people were restrained from bringing in.

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

For the material was enough for all the work, to make it, —and to spare.

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.

Then did all the wise-hearted among the workers of the material make the habitation of ten curtains, of fine-twined linen, and blue and purple and crimson, with cherubim the work of the skilful weaver, did he make 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 four cubits, for each curtain, —one measure, had all the curtains.

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

And he joined the [first] five curtains, one to another, —and the [other] five curtains, joined he one to another,

11 And he made loops of blue on the edge of one curtain at the edge of the coupling; he did likewise in the edge of the outermost curtain in the other coupling.

And he made loops of blue upon the border of the first curtain, at the edge of the set, —thus, made he in the border of the other curtain at the edge of the second set:

12 He made fifty loops in one curtain, and he made fifty loops at the end of the curtain that was in the other coupling: the loops were opposite to one another.

Fifty loops, made he in the first curtain, and fifty loops, made he in the edge of the curtain that was in the second set, —the loops being, opposite, one to another.

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 clasps of gold, —and joined the curtains one to another with the clasps, and so the habitation became, one.

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 goat’s-hair, for the tent over the habitation, eleven curtains, did he make them:

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 breath of each curtain, —one measure, had the eleven curtains.

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

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

And he made fifty loops upon the border of the curtain that was outmost in the one set and fifty loops, made he upon the border of the curtain of the second set.

18 And he made fifty clasps of copper to couple the tent, that it might be one.

And he made fifty clasps of bronze, —to join together the tent, that it might become one.

19 And he made a covering for the tent [of] rams' skins dyed red, and a covering of badgers' skins above [that].

And he made a covering to the tent, of rams’ skins dyed red, —and a covering of badgers’ skins, above.

20 And he made the boards for the tabernacle of acacia-wood, standing up;

And he made the boards for the habitation, of acacia wood, for standing up:

21 ten cubits the length of the boards, and one cubit and a half the breadth of one board;

ten cubits, the length of each board, and a cubit and a half the breadth of each board:

22 two tenons in one board, connected one with the other: thus did he make for all the boards of the tabernacle.

two tenons to each board, united one to another, —thus, made he for all the boards of the habitation.

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

And he made the boards for the habitation, twenty boards, for the south side southwards;

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.

and, forty sockets of silver, made he, under the twenty boards, two sockets, under the first board, for its two tenons, and, two sockets, under the next board for its two tenons.

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

And for the second side of the habitation to the north quarter, made he twenty boards;

26 and their forty bases of silver, two bases under one board, and two bases under another board.

and their forty sockets of silver, two sockets, under the first board, and, two sockets, under the next board.

27 And at the rear of the tabernacle, westward, he made six boards;

And, for the hinder part of the habitation westward, made he six boards;

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

and two boards, made he for the corners of the habitation, —in the hinderpart.

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;

Thus were they to be double beneath, and at the same time, should they be entire, at the top thereof, into each ring, thus, did he for them both, for the two corners.

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

Thus were there to be eight boards, and, their sockets of silver, were sixteen sockets, two sockets apiece under each board.

31 — And he made bars of acacia-wood: five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,

And he made bars of acacia wood, —five, for the boards of the first side of the habitation,

32 and five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle at the rear, westward.

and five bars, for the boards of the other side of the habitation, and, five bars, for the boards of the habitation at the hinderpart westward.

33 And he made the middle bar in the midst of the boards reach from one end to the other.

And he made the middle bar, —to run along in the midst of the boards, from end to end.

34 And he overlaid the boards with gold; and made their rings of gold [as] receptacles for the bars; and overlaid the bars with gold.

And the boards, overlaid he with gold and their rings, made he of gold, as receptacles for the bars, and he overlaid the bars with gold.

35 And he made the veil of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined byssus: of artistic work he made it [with] cherubim.

And he made the veil, of blue and purple and crimson and fine-twined linen, —of the work of a skilful weaver, made he it, with cherubim.

36 And he made four pillars of acacia[-wood] for it, and overlaid them with gold; their hooks were of gold; and he cast for them four bases of silver.

And he made for it four pillars of acacia, and overlaid them with gold their hooks of gold, and cast for them, four sockets of silver.

37 And he made a curtain for the entrance of the tent of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined byssus, of embroidery;

And he made a screen for the opening of the tent, of blue and purple and crimson and fine twined linen, the work of an embroiderer;

38 and its five pillars with their hooks; and he overlaid their capitals and their connecting-rods with gold; and their five bases were of copper.

and the five pillars thereof and their hooks, and he overlaid their capitals and their cross-rods, with gold, but, their five sockets, were of bronze.
