Exodus 35

1 And Moses assembles all the congregation of the sons of Israel and says to them, “These [are] the things which YHWH has commanded—to do them:

And all the multitude of the children of Israel being gathered together, he said to them: These are the things which the Lord hath commanded to be done.

2 [For] six days work is done, and on the seventh day there is a holy [day] for you, a Sabbath of rest to YHWH; any who does work in it is put to death;

Six days you shall do work: the seventh day shall be holy unto you, the sabbath, and the rest of the Lord: he that shall do any work on it, shall be put to death.

3 you do not burn a fire in any of your dwellings on the Sabbath day.”

You shall kindle no fire in any of your habitations on the sabbath day.

4 And Moses speaks to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, saying, “This [is] the thing which YHWH has commanded, saying,

And Moses said to all the assembly of the children of Israel: This is the word the Lord hath commanded, saying:

5 Take a raised-offering for YHWH from among you; everyone whose heart [is] willing brings it [as] the raised-offering of YHWH: gold, and silver, and bronze,

Set aside with you firstfruits to the Lord. Let every one that is willing and hath a ready heart, offer them to the Lord: gold, and silver, and brass,

6 and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and linen, and goats’ [hair],

Violet and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, and fine linen, goats’ hair,

7 and rams’ skins made red, and tachashim skins, and shittim wood,

And rams’ skins dyed red, and violet coloured skins, setim wood,

8 and oil for the light, and spices for the anointing oil, and for the spice-incense,

And oil to maintain lights, and to make ointment, and most sweet incense.

9 and shoham stones, and stones for settings, for an ephod, and for a breastplate.

Onyx stones, and precious stones, for the adorning of the ephod and the rational.

10 And all the wise-hearted among you come in, and make all that YHWH has commanded:

Whosoever of you is wise, let him come, and make that which the Lord hath commanded:

11 the Dwelling Place, its tent, and its covering, its hooks, and its boards, its bars, its pillars, and its sockets,

To wit, the tabernacle and the roof thereof, and the cover, the rings, and the board work with the oars, the pillars, and the sockets:

12 the Ark and its poles, the propitiatory covering, and the veil of the covering,

The ark and the staves, the propitiatory, and the veil that is drawn before it:

13 the table and its poles, and all its vessels, and the Bread of the Presentation,

The table with the bars and the vessels, and the loaves of proposition:

14 and the lampstand for the light, and its vessels, and its lamps, and the oil for the light,

The candlestick to bear up the lights, the vessels thereof and the lamps, and the oil for the nourishing of fires:

15 and the altar of incense, and its poles, and the anointing oil, and the spice-incense, and the covering of the opening at the opening of the Dwelling Place,

The altar of incense, and the bars, and the oil of unction and the incense of spices: the hanging at the door of the tabernacle:

16 the altar of burnt-offering and the bronze grate which it has, its poles, and all its vessels, the laver and its base,

The altar of holocaust, and its grate of brass, with the bars and vessels thereof: the laver and its foot:

17 the hangings of the court, its pillars, and their sockets, and the covering of the gate of the court,

The curtains of the court with the pillars and the sockets, the hanging in the doors of the entry,

18 the pins of the Dwelling Place, and the pins of the court, and their cords,

The pins of the tabernacle and of the court with their little cords:

19 the colored garments, to do service in the holy place, the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons to act as priest in.”

The vestments that are to be used in the ministry of the sanctuary, the vesture of Aaron the high priest, and of his sons, to do the office of priesthood to me.

20 And all the congregation of the sons of Israel go out from the presence of Moses,

And all the multitude of the children of Israel going out from the presence of Moses,

21 and they come in—every man whom his heart has lifted up, and everyone whom his spirit has made willing—they have brought in the raised-offering of YHWH for the work of the Tent of Meeting, and for all its service, and for the holy garments.

Offered firstfruits to the Lord with a most ready and devout mind, to make the work of the tabernacle of the testimony. Whatsoever was necessary to the service, and to the holy vestments,

22 And they come in—the men with the women—every willing-hearted one—they have brought in nose-ring, and earring, and seal-ring, and necklace, all golden goods, even everyone who has waved a wave-offering of gold to YHWH.

Both men and women gave bracelets and earrings, rings and tablets: every vessel of gold was set aside to be offered to the Lord.

23 And every man with whom has been found blue, and purple, and scarlet, and linen, and goats’ [hair], and rams’ skins made red, and tachashim skins, have brought [them] in;

If any man had violet, and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, fine linen and goats’ hair, rams’ skins dyed red, and violet coloured skins,

24 everyone lifting up a raised-offering of silver and bronze has brought in the raised-offering of YHWH; and everyone with whom has been found shittim wood for any work of the service brought [it] in.

Metal of silver and brass, they offered it to the Lord, and setim wood for divers uses.

25 And every wise-hearted woman has spun with her hands, and they bring in yarn—of the blue, and the purple, [and] the scarlet—and the linen;

The skillful women also gave such things as they had spun, violet, purple, and scarlet, and fine linen,

26 and all the women whose heart has lifted them up in wisdom, have spun the goats’ [hair].

And goats’ hair, giving all of their own accord.

27 And the princes have brought in the shoham stones, and the stones for settings, for the ephod, and for the breastplate,

But the princes offered onyx stone, and precious stones, for the ephod and the rational,

28 and the spices, and the oil for the light, and for the anointing oil, and for the spice-incense;

And spices and oil for the lights, and for the preparing of ointment, and to make the incense of most sweet savour.

29 every man and woman of the sons of Israel (whom their heart has made willing to bring in for all the work which YHWH commanded to be done by the hand of Moses) brought in a willing-offering to YHWH.

All both men and women with devout mind offered gifts, that the works might be done which the Lord had commanded by the hand of Moses. All the children of Israel dedicated voluntary offerings to the Lord.

30 And Moses says to the sons of Israel, “See, YHWH has called Bezaleel, son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, by name,

And Moses said to the children of Israel: Behold the Lord hath called by name Beseleel the son of Uri the son of Hur of the tribe of Juda.

31 and He fills him [with] the Spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all work,

And hath filled him with the spirit of God, with wisdom and understanding and knowledge and all learning.

32 even to devise inventions to work in gold, and in silver, and in bronze,

To devise and to work in gold and silver and brass,

33 and in a carving of stones for settings, and in a carving of wood to work in any work of design.

And in engraving stones, and in carpenters’ work. Whatsoever can be devised artificially,

34 And He has put [it] in his heart to direct, he and Aholiab, son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan;

He hath given in his heart: Ooliab also the son of Achisamech of the tribe of Dan:

35 He has filled them with wisdom of heart to do every work, of engraver, and designer, and embroiderer (in blue, and in purple, in scarlet, and in linen), and weaver, who does any work, and of designers of designs.”

Both of them hath he instructed with wisdom, to do carpenters’ work and tapestry, and embroidery in blue and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, and fine linen, and to weave all things, and to invent all new things.
