Exodus 31
1 Yahweh [also] said to Moses/me, “Note that I have chosen Bezalel, the son of Uri and grandson of Hur, from the tribe of Judah, [for special tasks].
Depois falou o Senhor a Moisés, dizendo:
Eis que eu tenho chamado por nome a Bezaleel, o filho de Uri, filho de Ur, da tribo de Judá,
3 I have caused him to be completely controlled/empowered by my Spirit, and I have given him special ability [to make things] and have enabled him to know how to do very skilled work.
E o enchi do espírito de Deus, de sabedoria, e de entendimento, e de ciência, em todo o artifício,
4 He can engrave skillful designs in gold, silver, and bronze.
Para inventar invenções, e obrar em ouro, em prata, e em cobre,
5 He can cut (jewels/valuable stones) and enclose them [in tiny gold settings/frames]. He can carve things from wood and do other skilled work.
E em lavramento de pedras para engastar, e em artifício de madeira, para obrar em todo o lavor.
6 Note that I have also appointed Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, from the tribe of Dan, to work with him. I have also given special ability to other men, in order that they can make all the things that I have commanded you [to be made].
E eis que eu tenho posto com ele a Aholiab, o filho de Ahisamach, da tribo de Dan, e tenho dado sabedoria ao coração de todo aquele que é sábio de coração, para que façam tudo o que te tenho ordenado;
7 That includes the Sacred Tent, the sacred chest and its lid, all the other things that will be inside the Sacred Tent,
A saber, a tenda da congregação, e a arca do testemunho, e o propiciatório que estará sobre ela, e todos os vasos da tenda;
8 the table and all the things that are used with it, the pure gold lampstand and all the things that are used to take care of it, the altar [for burning] incense,
E a mesa com os seus vasos, e o castiçal puro com todos os seus vasos, e o altar do incenso;
9 the altar for offering sacrifices that will be burned and all the things that will be used with it, the washbasin and its base,
E o altar do holocausto com todos os seus vasos, e a pia com a sua base;
10 all the beautiful sacred clothes for Aaron and his sons to wear when they work as priests,
E os vestidos do ministério, e os vestidos santos de Aarão o sacerdote, e os vestidos de seus filhos, para administrarem o sacerdócio;
11 the oil for anointing, and the sweet-smelling incense for the Holy Place. [The skilled workers] must make all these things exactly as I have told you to do.”
E o azeite da unção, e o incenso aromático para o santuário: farão conforme a tudo que te tenho mandado.
12 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
Falou mais o Senhor a Moisés, dizendo:
13 “Tell the Israeli people, ‘Obey my instructions regarding the (rest days/Sabbath days). Those days will remind you [and your descendants], throughout all future generations, that I, Yahweh, have (set you apart/chosen you) to be my people.
Tu pois fala aos filhos de Israel, dizendo: Certamente guardareis meus sábados: porquanto isso é um sinal entre mim e vós nas vossas gerações; para que saibais que eu sou o Senhor, que vos santifica.
14 You must obey [my rules about] the Sabbath days because they are holy/sacred. Those who treat those days in an irreverent way by working on those days must be executed [to show that] I no longer consider them to belong to my people.
Portanto guardareis o sábado, porque santo é para vós: aquele que o profanar certamente morrerá; porque qualquer que nele fizer alguma obra, aquela alma será extirpada do meio do seu povo.
15 You may work for six days [each week], but the seventh day [of each week] is a solemn day of rest, dedicated to me, Yahweh. Anyone who does any work on a day of rest is to be executed [because I no longer want them to be able to associate with my people].
Seis dias se fará obra, porém o sétimo dia é o sábado do descanço, santo ao Senhor; qualquer que no dia do sábado fizer obra, certamente morrerá.
16 You Israeli people must respect the rest day, and you [and your descendants] must (celebrate it/keep it holy) throughout all future generations. [It will remind you] of the agreement that I have made with you that will last forever.
Guardarão pois o sábado os filhos de Israel, celebrando o sábado nas suas gerações por concerto perpétuo.
17 It will remind you Israeli people and remind me [of that agreement] because I, Yahweh, created the heavens and the earth in six days, and on the seventh day I stopped doing that work and relaxed.’”
Entre mim e os filhos de Israel será um sinal para sempre: porque em seis dias fez o Senhor os céus e a terra, e ao sétimo dia descançou, e restaurou-se.
18 When Yahweh finished talking with Moses/me on the top of Sinai Mountain, he gave him/me the two stone slabs on which he had engraved his commandments with his own fingers.
E deu a Moisés (quando acabou de falar com ele no monte de Sinai) as duas tábuas do testemunho, tábuas de pedra, escritas pelo dedo de Deus.
