Exodus 31

1 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

١ وَخَاطَبَ الرَّبُّ مُوسَى:

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

٢ «هَا أَنَا قَدْ دَعَوْتُ بَصَلْئِيلَ بْنَ أُوْرِي، حَفِيدَ حُورَ مِنْ سِبْطِ يَهُوذَا، بِاسْمِهِ،

3 and I fill him [with] the Spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all work,

٣ وَمَلأْتُهُ مِنْ رُوحِ اللهِ وَوَهَبْتُهُ حِكْمَةً وَمَهَارَةً وَمَقْدِرَةً وَمَعْرِفَةً فِي كُلِّ أَنْوَاعِ الْحِرَفِ،

4 to devise inventions to work in gold, and in silver, and in bronze,

٤ وَلِابْتِكَارِ فُنُونِ التَّصْمِيمَاتِ الْمَصْنُوعَةِ مِنَ الذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةِ وَالنُّحَاسِ،

5 and in a carving of stone for settings, and in a carving of wood to work in all work.

٥ وَصَقْلِ الْجَوَاهِرِ وَتَرْصِيعِهَا، وَنِجَارَةِ الْخَشَبِ، وَلِيَكُونَ مُحْتَرِفاً لِكُلِّ صِنَاعَةٍ.

6 And I, behold, have given with him Aholiab, son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, and I have given wisdom in the heart of every wise-hearted one, and they have made all that which I have commanded you.

٦ كَمَا اخْتَرْتُ أَهُولِيآبَ بْنَ أَخِيسَامَاكَ مِنْ سِبْطِ دَانَ، لِيَكُونَ مُسَاعِداً لَهُ. وَكَذَلِكَ وَهَبْتُ جَمِيعَ الصُّنَّاعِ مَهَارَةً خَاصَّةً لِيَقُومُوا بِكُلِّ مَا أَمَرْتُكَ بِهِ.

7 The Tent of Meeting, and the Ark of Testimony, and the propitiatory covering which [is] on it, and all the vessels of the tent,

٧ فِي صُنْعِ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ وَتَابُوتِ الشَّهَادَةِ وَالْغِطَاءِ الَّذِي عَلَيْهِ وَسَائِرِ آنِيَةِ الْخَيْمَةِ،

8 and the table and its vessels, and the pure lampstand and all its vessels, and the altar of the incense,

٨ كَالْمَائِدَةِ وَآنِيَتِهَا، وَالْمَنَارَةِ الذَّهَبِيَّةِ الطَّاهِرَةِ، وَكُلِّ آنِيَتِهَا، وَمَذْبَحِ الْبَخُورِ،

9 and the altar of the burnt-offering and all its vessels, and the laver and its base,

٩ وَمَذْبَحِ الْمُحْرَقَةِ وَكُلِّ آنِيَتِهِ، وَحَوْضِ الاغْتِسَالِ وَقَاعِدَتِهِ.

10 and the colored garments, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, for acting as priests in;

١٠ وَكَذَلِكَ الثِّيَابِ الْمَنْسُوجَةِ، ثِيَابِ هَرُونَ الْكَاهِنِ الْمُقَدَّسَةِ وَثِيَابِ بَنِيهِ الْقَائِمِينَ عَلَى خِدْمَةِ الْكِهَانَةِ،

11 and the anointing oil, and the incense of the spices for the holy place; according to all that I have commanded you—they do.”

١١ وَدُهْنِ الْمَسْحَةِ وَالْبَخُورِ الْعَطِرِ لِلْقُدْسِ. فَيَعْمَلُونَ هَذِهِ كُلَّهَا بِمُقْتَضَى كُلِّ مَا أَمَرْتُكَ بِهِ».

12 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

١٢ وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى:

13 “And you, speak to the sons of Israel, saying, Surely you keep My Sabbaths, for it [is] a sign between Me and you throughout your generations, to know that I, YHWH, am sanctifying you;

١٣ «قُلْ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ: احْفَظُوا أَيَّامَ سُبُوتِي لأَنَّهَا عَلامَةُ الْعَهْدِ الَّذِي بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكُمْ، عَلَى مَرِّ الأَجْيَالِ، لِتَعْلَمُوا أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ الَّذِي يُقَدِّسُكُمْ.

14 and you have kept the Sabbath, for it [is] holy to you, he who is defiling it is certainly put to death—for any who does work in it—that person has even been cut off from the midst of his people.

١٤ احْفَظُوا يَوْمَ السَّبْتِ لأَنَّهُ مُقَدَّسٌ لَكُمْ. مَنْ يُدَنِّسْهُ حَتْماً يَمُتْ. فَكُلُّ مَنْ يَقُومُ فِيهِ بِعَمَلٍ، تُسْتَأْصَلُ تِلْكَ النَّفْسُ مِنْ بَيْنِ قَوْمِهَا.

15 [For] six days work is done, and in the seventh day [is] a Sabbath of holy rest to YHWH; any who does work in the Sabbath day is certainly put to death,

١٥ فِي سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ تَعْمَلُونَ، أَمَّا يَوْمُ السَّبْتِ فَهُوَ يَوْمُ عُطْلَةٍ مُقَدَّسٌ لِلرَّبِّ. كُلُّ مَنْ يَقُومُ بِعَمَلٍ فِي يَوْمِ السَّبْتِ يُقْتَلُ حَتْماً.

16 and the sons of Israel have observed the Sabbath; to keep the Sabbath throughout their generations [is] a perpetual covenant—

١٦ لِيَحْفَظْ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ السَّبْتَ وَيَحْتَفِلُوا بِهِ فِي كُلِّ أَجْيَالِهِمْ عَهْداً أَبَدِيًّا.

17 it [is] a sign between Me and the sons of Israel for all time; for [in] six days YHWH made the heavens and the earth, and in the seventh day He has ceased and is refreshed.”

١٧ هُوَ بَيْنِي وَبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلامَةُ عَهْدٍ إِلَى الأَبَدِ، لأَنَّهُ فِي سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ صَنَعَ الرَّبُّ السَّمَاءَ وَالأَرْضَ، وَفِي الْيَوْمِ السَّابِعِ فَرَغَ مِنَ الْعَمَلِ وَاسْتَرَاحَ».

18 And He gives to Moses, when He finishes speaking with him in Mount Sinai, two tablets of the Testimony, tablets of stone, written by the finger of God.

١٨ وَعِنْدَمَا فَرَغَ اللهُ مِنْ مُخَاطَبَةِ مُوسَى فِي جَبَلِ سِينَاءَ، أَعْطَاهُ لَوْحَيِ الشَّهَادَةِ، وَهُمَا لَوْحَانِ مِنْ حَجَرٍ مَكْتُوبَانِ بِإِصْبَعِ اللهِ.
