< Exodus 35 >
1 And Moses assembled all the congregation of the children of Israel, and said unto them: 'These are the words which the LORD hath commanded, that ye should do them.
And Moses gathered all the congregation of the children of Israel together, and said, These are the words which the Lord has spoken for [you] to do them.
2 Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you a holy day, a sabbath of solemn rest to the LORD; whosoever doeth any work therein shall be put to death.
Six days shalt thou perform works, but on the seventh day [shall be] rest—a holy sabbath—a rest for the Lord: every one that does work on it, let him die.
3 Ye shall kindle no fire throughout your habitations upon the sabbath day.'
Ye shall not burn a fire in any of your dwellings on the sabbath-day; I [am] the Lord.
4 And Moses spoke unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying: 'This is the thing which the LORD commanded, saying:
And Moses spoke to all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying, This [is] the thing which the Lord has appointed you, saying,
5 Take ye from among you an offering unto the LORD, whosoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it, the LORD'S offering: gold, and silver, and brass;
Take of yourselves an offering for the Lord: every one that engages in his heart shall bring the first-fruits to the Lord; gold, silver, brass,
6 and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' hair;
blue, purple, double scarlet spun, and fine linen spun, and goats' hair,
7 and rams' skins dyed red, and sealskins, and acacia-wood;

9 and onyx stones, and stones to be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate.
And every man that is wise in heart among you, let him come and work all things whatsoever the Lord has commanded.
10 And let every wise-hearted man among you come, and make all that the LORD hath commanded:
The tabernacle, and the cords, and the coverings, and the rings, and the bars, and the posts,
11 the tabernacle, its tent, and its covering, its clasps, and its boards, its bars, its pillars, and its sockets;

16 the altar of burnt-offering, with its grating of brass, its staves, and all its vessels, the laver and its base;
and the candle-stick for the light and all its furniture,
17 the hangings of the court, the pillars thereof, and their sockets, and the screen for the gate of the court;
and the altar and all its furniture;
18 the pins of the tabernacle, and the pins of the court, and their cords;
and the holy garments of Aaron the priest, and the garments in which they shall do service;
19 the plaited 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.'
and the garments of priesthood for the sons of Aaron and the anointing oil, and the compound incense.
20 And all the congregation of the children of Israel departed from the presence of Moses.
And all the congregation of the children of Israel went out from Moses. And they brought, they whose heart prompted them, and they to whomsoever it seemed good in their mind, each and offering:
21 And they came, every one whose heart stirred him up, and every one whom his spirit made willing, and brought the LORD'S offering, for the work of the tent of meeting, and for all the service thereof, and for the holy garments.
and they brought an offering to the Lord for all the works of the tabernacle of witness, and all its services, and for all the robes of the sanctuary.
22 And they came, both men and women, as many as were willing-hearted, and brought nose-rings, and ear-rings, and signet-rings, and girdles, all jewels of gold; even every man that brought an offering of gold unto the LORD.
And the men, even every one to whom it seemed good in his heart, brought from the women, [even] brought seals and ear-rings, and finger-rings, and necklaces, and bracelets, every article of gold.
23 And every man, with whom was found blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' hair, and rams' skins dyed red, and sealskins, brought them.
And all as many as brought ornaments of gold to the Lord, and with whomsoever fine linen was found; and they brought skins [dyed] blue, and rams' skins dyed red.
24 Every one that did set apart an offering of silver and brass brought the LORD'S offering; and every man, with whom was found acacia-wood for any work of the service, brought it.
And every one that offered an offering brought silver and brass, the offerings to the Lord; and [they] with whom was found incorruptible wood; and they brought [offerings] for all the works of the preparation.
25 And all the women that were wise-hearted did spin with their hands, and brought that which they had spun, the blue, and the purple, the scarlet, and the fine linen.
And every woman skilled in her heart to spin with her hands, brought spun [articles], the blue, and purple, and scarlet and fine linen.
26 And all the women whose heart stirred them up in wisdom spun the goats' hair.
And all the women to whom it seemed good in their heart in their wisdom, spun the goats' hair.
27 And the rulers brought the onyx stones, and the stones to be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate;
And the rulers brought the emerald stones, and the stones for setting in the ephod, and the oracle,
28 and the spice, and the oil, for the light, and for the anointing oil, and for the sweet incense.
and the compounds both for the anointing oil, and the composition of the incense.
29 The children of Israel brought a freewill-offering unto the LORD; every man and woman, whose heart made them willing to bring for all the work, which the LORD had commanded by the hand of Moses to be made.
And every man and woman whose mind inclined them to come in and do all the works as many as the Lord appointed them to do by Moses—[they] the children of Israel brought an offering to the Lord.
30 And Moses said unto the children of Israel: 'See, the LORD hath called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.
And Moses said to the children of Israel, Behold, God has called by name Beseleel the [son] of Urias the [son of] Or, of the tribe of Juda,
31 And He hath filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship.
and has filled him with a divine spirit of wisdom and understanding, and knowledge of all things,
32 And to devise skilful works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,
to labour skillfully in all works of cunning workmanship, to form the gold and the silver and the brass,
33 and in cutting of stones for setting, and in carving of wood, to work in all manner of skilful workmanship.
and to work in stone, and to fashion the wood, and to work in every work of wisdom.
34 And He hath put in his heart that he may teach, both he, and Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan.
And [God] gave improvement in understanding both to him, and to Eliab the [son] of Achisamach of the tribe of Dan.
35 Them hath He filled with wisdom of heart, to work all manner of workmanship, of the craftsman, and of the skilful workman, and of the weaver in colours, in blue, and in purple, in scarlet, and in fine linen, and of the weaver, even of them that do any workmanship, and of those that devise skilful works.
And [God] filled them with wisdom, understanding [and] perception, to understand to work all the works of the sanctuary, and to weave the woven and embroidered work with scarlet and fine linen, to do all work of curious workmanship [and] embroidery.
