Exodus 31
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
2 Behold, I have called by name Beseleel the son of Urias the son of Or, of the tribe of Juda.
'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] a divine spirit of wisdom, and understanding, and knowledge, to invent in every work,
and I fill him [with] the Spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all work,
4 and to frame works, to labor in gold, and silver, and brass, and blue, and purple, and spun scarlet,
to devise devices to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,
5 and works in stone, and for artificers' work in wood, to work at all works.
and in graving of stone for settings, and in graving of wood to work in all work.
6 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 you, —
'And I, lo, I have given with him Aholiab, son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, and in the heart of every wise-hearted one I have given wisdom, and they have made all that which I have commanded thee.
7 the tabernacle of witness, and the ark of the covenant, and the propitiatory that is upon it, and the furniture of the tabernacle,
'The tent of meeting, and the ark of testimony, and the mercy-seat which [is] on it, and all the vessels of the tent,
8 and the altars, and the table and all its furniture,
and the table and its vessels, and the pure candlestick and all its vessels, and the altar of the perfume,
9 and the pure candlestick and all its furniture, and the laver and its base,
and the altar of the burnt-offering and all its vessels, and the laver and its base,
10 and Aaron's robes of ministry, and the robes of his sons to minister to me as priests,
and the coloured garments, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, for acting as priests in;
11 and the anointing oil and the compound incense of the sanctuary; according to all that I have commanded you shall they make them.
and the anointing oil, and the perfume of the spices for the sanctuary; according to all that I have commanded thee — they do.'
12 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
13 Do you 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 you may know that I am the Lord that sanctifies you.
'And thou, speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, Only, My sabbaths ye do keep, for it [is] a sign between Me and you, to your generations, to know that I, Jehovah, am sanctifying you;
14 And you 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.
and ye have kept the sabbath, for it [is] holy to you, he who is polluting it is certainly put to death — for any who doeth work in it — that person hath even been cut off from the midst of his people.
15 Six days you shall 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.
'Six days is work done, and in the seventh day [is] a sabbath of holy rest to Jehovah; any who doeth work in the sabbath-day is certainly put to death,
16 And the children of Israel shall keep the sabbaths, to observe them throughout their generations.
and the sons of Israel have observed the sabbath; to keep the sabbath to their generations [is] a covenant age-during,
17 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.
between Me and the sons of Israel it [is] a sign — to the age; for six days Jehovah made the heavens and the earth, and in the seventh day He hath ceased, and is refreshed.'
18 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.
And He giveth unto Moses, when He finisheth speaking with him in mount Sinai, two tables of the testimony, tables of stone, written by the finger of God.
