Exodus 39
1 Bezalel, Oholiab, and the other skilled workmen made the beautiful clothes for Aaron to wear while he did his work as a priest in the Holy Place. They made them from blue, purple, and red cloth, just as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
Tout l'or qui fut mis en œuvre pour la fabrication des choses saintes provint des prémices; il y en eut vingt-neuf talents ou sept cent vingt sicles, au poids du sicle consacré.
2 They made the sacred apron from fine white linen and from blue, purple, and red cloth.
L'oblation d'argent faite par tous les hommes du peuple ayant passé à la visite, monta à cent talents et dix-sept cent soixante-quinze sicles;
3 They hammered some thin sheets of gold and cut them into thin strips which they embroidered into the fine linen and into the blue, purple, and red cloth.
Une drachme par tête ou un demi-sicle, au poids du sicle consacré; les hommes de vingt ans et au-dessus qui passèrent à la visite, furent au nombre de six cent trois mille cinq cent cinquante.
4 The apron had two shoulder straps, to join the front part to the back part at the shoulders.
Les cent talents d'argent furent employés à la fonte des cent chapiteaux du tabernacle et de la tenture intérieur; cent talents, cent chapiteaux: un talent par chapiteau.
5 A carefully-woven sash, which was made from the same materials as the sacred apron, was [sewn] onto the sacred apron. This was made exactly as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
Avec les dix-sept cent soixante-quinze sicles d'argent, Beseléel fit les chapiteaux des colonnes, revêtit leurs chapiteaux et les orna.
6 They cut two valuable onyx stones and enclosed them in a tiny gold frame, and a skilled gem-cutter engraved on the stones the names of the twelve sons of Jacob.
L'airain des prémices produisit soixante talents et quinze cents sicles.
7 They fastened the stones to the shoulder straps of the sacred apron, to represent the twelve Israeli tribes, exactly as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
Ils en firent les bases des portes du tabernacle du témoignage,
8 They made the sacred chest pouch. They made it of the same materials as the sacred apron and embroidered it in the same way.
Et les bases du parvis, tout alentour. Ainsi que les bases des portes au parvis, les piquets du tabernacle, les piquets du parvis tout alentour,
9 It was square, and the material was folded double, so that it was (9 in./22 cm.) long and (9 in./22 cm.) wide.
La devanture de l'autel et tous ses accessoires, tous les ustensiles du tabernacle du témoignage.
10 They fastened four rows of valuable stones onto the pouch. In the first row, they put a [red] ruby, a [yellow] topaz, and a [red] garnet.
Les fils d'Israël firent ces œuvres, comme le Seigneur l'avait prescrit à Moïse;
11 In the second row, they put a [green] emerald, a [blue] sapphire, and a [clear/white] diamond.
Et, du reste des prémices, [de l'or]ils fabriquèrent les vases pour exercer le sacerdoce devant le Seigneur.
12 In the third row they put a [red] jacinth, a [white] agate, and a [purple] amethyst.
Avec la reste de l'hyacinthe, de la pourpre, de l'écarlate, ils firent les vêtements d'Aaron, pour qu'il s'en revêtit en exerçant le sacerdoce dans le sanctuaire.
13 In the fourth row, they put a [yellow] beryl, a [red] carnelian, and a [green] jasper. They set each of the stones in tiny gold frames.
Et ils portèrent les vêtements à Moïse, ainsi que le tabernacle et son ameublement, ses bases et ses chapiteaux, ses leviers, ses colonnes;
14 On each of the twelve stones they engraved the name of one of the sons of Jacob, to represent one of the twelve Israeli tribes.
L'arche de l'alliance et ses leviers;
15 They made two [chains] from pure gold and braided them like cords, to [attach] the sacred pouch [to the sacred apron].
L'autel et tous ses accessoires; l’huile de l'onction et l'encens composé;
16 They made two gold rings, and they attached them to the upper corners of the sacred pouch.
Le chandelier d'or pur, les lampes à brûler de l'huile, et l'huile à éclairer;
17 They fastened one end of each cord to one of the rings.
La table de la proposition, et tous ses accessoires, avec les pains à y déposer,
18 They fastened the other end of each cord to the two (settings/tiny frames) [that enclosed the stones]. Then they attached the sacred pouch to the shoulder straps of the sacred apron.
Les vêtements du sanctuaire qui étaient pour Aaron; et les robes sacerdotales de ses fils;
19 Then they made two more gold rings and attached them to the lower corners of the sacred pouch, on the inside edges, next to the sacred apron.
Les tentures du parvis, les colonnes, le voile de l'entrée du tabernacle, et celui de l'entrée du parvis, tous les vases du tabernacle et tous ses ustensiles;
20 They made two more gold rings and attached them to the lower part of the front of the shoulder straps, near to where [the shoulder straps] were joined [to the sacred apron], just above the carefully-woven sash/waistband.
Les toisons de béliers apprêtées et teintes en rouge, les couvertures bleues et les autres couvertures supérieures;
21 They tied the rings on the sacred pouch to the rings on the sacred apron with a blue cord, so that the sacred pouch was above the sash/waistband and would not come loose from the sacred apron.
Les piquets enfin et tous les ustensiles nécessaires aux œuvres du tabernacle du témoignage.
22 They made the robe that is to be worn underneath the priest’s sacred apron, using only blue [cloth].
Tout ce que le Seigneur avait prescrit à Moïse, les fils d'Israël le firent; ils fabriquèrent tous les vases.
23 It had an opening through which [the priest] would put his head. They sewed a border around this opening, to prevent the material from tearing.
Et Moïse vit que tous les travaux étaient faits de la manière prescrite par le Seigneur à Moïse; les fils d'Israël les avaient ainsi faits, et Moïse les bénit.
24 At the lower edge on the robe, they fastened [decorations that resembled] pomegranate fruit. The decorations were [woven from] blue, purple, and red yarn/thread.
25 Between each of these decorations, they fastened a tiny bell made from pure gold, so there was a bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a pomegranate, alternating all around the hem of the robe
26 for [Aaron to wear while] he did his work as a priest. They made all these things exactly as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
27 They wove long-sleeved tunics/gowns from fine white linen, for Aaron and his sons.
28 They also made a turban of fine linen [for Aaron to wear around his head]. They made the caps and the undershorts [for Aaron’s sons] from fine linen.
29 They made the embroidered sash/waistband [for Aaron] from fine linen and from blue, purple, and red cloth, and they embroidered designs on it using blue, purple, and red yarn/thread, exactly as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
30 They also made the tiny ornament of pure gold and had a skilled workman engrave on it the words, ‘Dedicated to Yahweh’.
31 They fastened this to the front of the turban by a blue cord, just as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
32 Finally they finished all the work to make the Sacred Tent. They brought to Moses/me all the things that they had made. They had made them exactly as Yahweh had commanded me.
33 They brought to him/me the Sacred Tent and all the things that were used with it: the hooks, the frames, the crossbars, the posts and their bases,
34 the coverings for the Sacred Tent that were made of tanned/dyed rams’ skins and goatskins, the curtains,
35 the sacred chest that contained the stone slabs [on which the commandments were written], the poles, the lid for the chest,
36 the table with all the things that were used with it, the sacred bread [that was offered] to God,
37 the lampstand made of pure gold and all its lamps and all the things that were to be used to take care of it, the oil for the lamps,
38 the golden altar [for burning incense], the oil for anointing, the sweet-smelling incense, the curtain for the entrance to the Sacred Tent,
39 the bronze altar [for burning sacrifices] and its bronze grating, the poles [for carrying] it, and all the other things that were used with it, the washbasin and its base,
40 the curtains [that surrounded] the courtyard, the posts and bases that supported them, the curtain for the entrance to the courtyard and its ropes, the tent pegs, and all the other things that would be used in the Sacred Tent,
41 the beautiful sacred clothes for Aaron to wear when he did his work in the Holy Place, and the special clothes for his sons to wear as they did their work as priests.
42 The Israeli people had done all this work exactly as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
43 Then Moses/I saw all the work that they had done. Truly, they had done everything exactly as Yahweh had commanded [that it should be done]. Then Moses/I [asked God to] bless them.
