1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2 'See, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah;
Behold, I have called by name Beseleel the son of Urias the son of Or, of the tribe of Juda.
3 and I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,
And I have filled him [with] a divine spirit of wisdom, and understanding, and knowledge, to invent in every work,
4 to devise skilful works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,
and to frame works, to labour in gold, and silver, and brass, and blue, and purple, and spun scarlet,
5 and in cutting of stones for setting, and in carving of wood, to work in all manner of workmanship.
and works in stone, and for artificers' work in wood, to work at all works.
6 And I, behold, I have appointed with him Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan; and in the hearts of all that are wise-hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded thee:
And I have appointed him and Eliab the [son] of Achisamach of the tribe of Dan, and to every one understanding in heart I have given understanding; and they shall make all things as many as I have appointed thee, —
7 the tent of meeting, and the ark of the testimony, and the ark-cover that is thereupon, and all the furniture of the Tent;
the tabernacle of witness, and the ark of the covenant, and the propitiatory that is upon it, and the furniture of the tabernacle,
8 and the table and its vessels, and the pure candlestick with all its vessels, and the altar of incense;
and the altars, and the table and all its furniture,
9 and the altar of burnt-offering with all its vessels, and the laver and its base;
and the pure candlestick and all its furniture, and the laver and its base,
10 and the plaited garments, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister in the priest's office;
and Aaron's robes of ministry, and the robes of his sons to minister to me as priests,
11 and the anointing oil, and the incense of sweet spices for the holy place; according to all that I have commanded thee shall they do.'
and the anointing oil and the compound incense of the sanctuary; according to all that I have commanded thee shall they make them.
12 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
13 'Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying: Verily ye shall keep My sabbaths, for it is a sign between Me and you throughout your generations, that ye may know that I am the LORD who sanctify you.
Do thou also charge the children of Israel, saying, Take heed and keep my sabbaths; [for] they are a sign with me and among you throughout your generations, that ye may know that I am the Lord that sanctifies you.
14 Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore, for it is holy unto you; every one that profaneth it shall surely be put to death; for whosoever doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
And ye shall keep the sabbaths, because this is holy to the Lord for you; he that profanes it shall surely be put to death: every one who shall do a work on it, that soul shall be destroyed from the midst of his people.
15 Six days shall work be done; but on the seventh day is a sabbath of solemn rest, holy to the LORD; whosoever doeth any work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death.
Six days thou shalt do works, but the seventh day is the sabbath, a holy rest to the Lord; every one who shall do a work on the seventh day shall be put to death.
16 Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant.
And the children of Israel shall keep the sabbaths, to observe them throughout their generations.
17 It is a sign between Me and the children of Israel for ever; for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day He ceased from work and rested.'
It is a perpetual covenant with me and the children of Israel, it is a perpetual sign with me; for in six days the Lord made the heaven and the earth, and on the seventh day he ceased, and rested.
18 And He gave unto Moses, when He had made an end of speaking with him upon mount Sinai, the two tables of the testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God.
And he gave to Moses when he left off speaking to him in mount Sina the two tables of testimony, tables of stone written [upon] with the finger of God.
