Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:

2 See, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah:

See, I have called by name, Bezaleel, son of Uri, son of Hur of the tribe of Judah;

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 have filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom and in understanding, and in knowledge and in all manner of workmanship;

4 To devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,

to devise skilful designs, to work in gold and in silver, and in bronze;

5 And in cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship.

and in the cutting of stones for setting, and in the carving of wood, —to work in all manner of workmanship,

6 And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab, 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;

I myself, therefore, lo! I have given with him Oholiab, son of Ahisamach of the tribe of Dan, and in the heart of every one that is wise-hearted, have I put wisdom, —so shall they make all that I have commanded thee—

7 The tabernacle of the congregation, and the ark of the testimony, and the mercy seat that is thereupon, and all the furniture of the tabernacle,

the tent of meeting, and the ark of the testimony; and the propitiatory which is thereupon, and all the utensils of the tent;

8 And the table and his furniture, and the pure lampstand with all his furniture, and the altar of incense,

and the table, and its utensils, and the pure lampstand, and all its utensils, —and the incense altar;

9 And the altar of burnt offering with all his furniture, and the laver and his foot,

and the altar for the ascending-sacrifice, and all its utensils, and the laver, and its stand;

10 And the cloths of service, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister in the priest’s office,

and the cloths of variegated stuff, and the holy garments, for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, for ministering as priests;

11 And the anointing oil, and sweet incense for the holy place: according to all that I have commanded thee shall they do.

and the anointing oil and the fragrant incense for the holy place, according to all which I have commanded thee, shall they do.

12 And Yhwh spake unto Moses, saying,

Then spake Yahweh unto Moses saying—

13 Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know that I am Yhwh that doth sanctify you.

Thou thyself, therefore, speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, Surely, my sabbaths, shall ye keep, for, a sign it is betwixt me and you to your generations, that ye may know that I Yahweh do hallow you.

17 It is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for in six days Yhwh made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.

between me and the sons of Israel, a sign it is unto times age-abiding, —for in six days, did Yahweh make the heavens and the earth, and on the seventh day, he rested, and was refreshed.

18 And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of communing with him upon mount Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God.

Then gave he unto Moses, as he finished speaking with him in Mount Sinai, the two tables of the testimony, —tables of stone, written with the finger of God,
