Moses summoned all the Israelites and told them, “This is what the Lord has ordered you to do:
2 Six days is work done, and on the seventh day there is to you a holy [day], a sabbath of rest to Jehovah; any who doeth work in it is put to death;
Six days you can work, but the seventh day is to be a holy Sabbath of rest to the Lord. Anyone who does any work on the Sabbath day must be killed.
3 ye do not burn a fire in any of your dwellings on the sabbath-day.'

10 'And all the wise-hearted among you come in, and make all that Jehovah hath commanded:
All your skilled craftsmen are to come and make everything the Lord has commanded:
11 'The tabernacle, its tent, and its covering, its hooks, and its boards, its bars, its pillars, and its sockets,
the Tabernacle with its tent and covering, its clips and frames, its crossbars, posts, and stands;
12 'The ark and its staves, the mercy-seat, and the vail of the covering,

20 And all the company of the sons of Israel go out from the presence of Moses,
The Israelites left Moses,
21 and they come in — every man whom his heart hath lifted up, and every one whom his spirit hath made willing — they have brought in the heave-offering of Jehovah for the work of the tent of meeting, and for all its service, and for the holy garments.
and all those who felt moved to do so and who had a willing spirit came and brought an offering to the Lord for the work making the Tent of Meeting, for everything required for its services, and for the sacred clothing.
22 And they come in — the men with the women — every willing-hearted one — they have brought in nose-ring, and ear-ring, and seal-ring, and necklace, all golden goods, even every one who hath waved a wave-offering of gold to Jehovah.
So everyone who was willing, both men and women, came and presented their gold as a thanks offering to the Lord, including brooches, earrings, rings, and necklaces—all kinds of gold jewelry.
23 And every man with whom hath been found blue, and purple, and scarlet, and linen, and goats' [hair], and rams' skins made red, and badgers' skins, have brought [them] in;
Everyone who had blue, purple, and crimson thread, finely-woven linen, goat hair, tanned ram skins, and fine leather, contributed them.
24 every one lifting up a heave-offering of silver and brass have brought in the heave-offering of Jehovah; and every one with whom hath been found shittim wood for any work of the service brought [it] in.
Those who could present an offering of silver or bronze brought it as a gift to the Lord. Everyone who had acacia wood for any part of the work donated it.
25 And every wise-hearted woman hath spun with her hands, and they bring in yarn, the blue, and the purple, the scarlet, and the linen;
Every woman skilled in spinning with her hands brought what she had spun: blue, purple, or crimson thread, or finely-woven linen.
26 and all the women whose heart hath lifted them up in wisdom, have spun the goats' [hair].
All the women who were willing to use their skills spun the goat hair.
27 And the princes have brought in the shoham stones, and the stones for settings, for the ephod, and for the breastplate,

28 and the spices, and the oil for the light, and for the anointing oil, and for the spice perfume;
as well as spices and olive oil for lighting, for the anointing oil, and for the aromatic incense.
29 every man and woman (whom their heart hath made willing to bring in for all the work which Jehovah commanded to be done by the hand of Moses) [of] the sons of Israel brought in a willing-offering to Jehovah.
All the Israelite men and women who were willing brought a freewill offering to the Lord for all the work in making what the Lord through Moses had ordered them to do.
30 And Moses saith unto the sons of Israel, 'See, Jehovah hath called by name Bezaleel, son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah,
Then Moses told the Israelites, “The Lord chosen by name Bezalel, son of Uri, son of Hur, from the tribe of Judah.
31 and He doth fill him [with] the Spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all work,
He has filled him with the Spirit of God giving him ability, creativity, and expertise in all kinds of craftsmanship.
32 even to devise devices to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,
He can produce designs in gold, silver, and bronze,
33 and in graving of stones for settings, and in graving of wood to work in any work of design.
he can cut gemstones to place in settings, and he can carve wood. He is a master of every craft.
34 'And to direct He hath put in his heart, he and Aholiab, son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan;
The Lord has also given him and Oholiab son of Ahisamach, from the tribe of Dan, the ability to teach others.
35 He hath 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 do any work, and of designers of designs.
He has equipped them with skill to do all kinds of work as engravers, designers, embroiderers in blue, purple, and crimson thread, and finely-woven linen, and as weavers—in fact as skilled designers in all kinds of different crafts.
