Exode 38
1 Et Beseléel fit l'arche.
Bezalel constructed the altar of burnt offering from acacia wood. It was square, five cubits long, five cubits wide, and three cubits high.
2 Il la revêtit d'or pur au dedans et au dehors.
He made a horn at each of its four corners, so that the horns and altar were of one piece, and he overlaid the altar with bronze.
3 Et, pour elle, il jeta en fonte quatre anneaux d'or, deux d'un côté, deux de l'autre côté,
He made all the altar’s utensils of bronze—its pots, shovels, sprinkling bowls, meat forks, and firepans.
4 Assez larges pour qu'en y passant les leviers, on pût enlever l'arche.
He made a grate of bronze mesh for the altar under its ledge, halfway up from the bottom.
5 Au-dessus de l'arche, il fit le propitiatoire en or pur,
At the four corners of the bronze grate he cast four rings as holders for the poles.
6 Avec les deux chérubins d'or,
And he made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze.
7 L'un des chérubins sur l'un des bords du propitiatoire, l'autre chérubin sur l'autre bord
Then he inserted the poles into the rings on the sides of the altar for carrying it. He made the altar with boards so that it was hollow.
8 Ombrageant de leurs ailes la surface du propitiatoire.
Next he made the bronze basin and its stand from the mirrors of the women who served at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
9 Il fit, pour être placé devant l'arche, la table; en or pur
Then he constructed the courtyard. The south side of the courtyard was a hundred cubits long and had curtains of finely spun linen,
10 Et, pour elle, il jeta en fonte quatre anneaux, deux sur l'un des côtés, deux sur l'autre côté, Assez larges pour qu'en y passant les leviers, on pût enlever la table.
with twenty posts and twenty bronze bases, and with silver hooks and bands on the posts.
11 Il fit les leviers de l'arche et de la table, et il les revêtit d'or.
The north side was also a hundred cubits long, with twenty posts and twenty bronze bases. The hooks and bands of the posts were silver.
12 Il fit aussi en or les vases de la table, les assiettes, les encensoirs, les urnes à puiser les libations, les coupes à les répandre.
The west side was fifty cubits long and had curtains, with ten posts and ten bases. The hooks and bands of the posts were silver.
13 Et il fit, pour porter la lumière, le chandelier d'or, à tige droite inflexible,
And the east side, toward the sunrise, was also fifty cubits long.
14 avec les branches sortant de ses deux côtés;
The curtains on one side of the entrance were fifteen cubits long, with three posts and three bases.
15 Les fleurs tenant aux branches, qui étaient trois à droite et trois à gauche, semblables les unes aux autres,
And the curtains on the other side were also fifteen cubits long, with three posts and three bases as well.
16 Et leurs petites lampes, posant sur leurs extrémités, façonnées comme des noix, avec les becs qui en sortent pour en être les foyers lumineux, et le septième bec, sur la pointe extrême du chandelier, en or massif.
All the curtains around the courtyard were made of finely spun linen.
17 Et les sept lampes d'or, reposant sur le chandelier, avec leurs mouchettes d'or, et leurs récipients en or.
The bases for the posts were bronze, the hooks and bands were silver, and the plating for the tops of the posts was silver. So all the posts of the courtyard were banded with silver.
18 Il revêtit d'argent les colonnes; il jeta en fonte les colonnes, les anneaux d'or; il revêtit d'or les leviers, ainsi que les colonnes du voile intérieur, il fit les attaches d'or,
The curtain for the entrance to the courtyard was embroidered with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and finely spun linen. It was twenty cubits long and, like the curtains of the courtyard, five cubits high,
19 Et il fit les boucles d'or du tabernacle, les boucles du parvis, et les boucles d'airain pour tendre la couverture extérieure;
with four posts and four bronze bases. Their hooks were silver, as well as the bands and the plating of their tops.
20 il jeta en fonte les chapiteaux d'argent du tabernacle, les chapiteaux d'airain de la porte du tabernacle et de la porte du parvis; il fit aussi les attaches d'argent sur les colonnes qu'il avait revêtues d'argent.
All the tent pegs for the tabernacle and for the surrounding courtyard were bronze.
21 Et il fit les piquets du tabernacle, et les piquets du parvis, tous en airain.
This is the inventory for the tabernacle, the tabernacle of the Testimony, as recorded at Moses’ command by the Levites under the direction of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest.
22 Il fit l'autel d'airain, avec les encensoirs d'airain, qui avaient appartenu aux hommes de la troupe de Coré.
Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made everything that the LORD had commanded Moses.
23 Et il fit les vases de l'autel avec son foyer, sa base, les coupes et les crochets d'airain.
With him was Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, an engraver, designer, and embroiderer in blue, purple, and scarlet yarn and fine linen.
24 Il fit aussi pour l'autel une devanture en forme de grillage, au-dessous du foyer, descendant jusqu'à la moitié de l'autel, et il adapta quatre anneaux aux quatre angles supérieurs de cette devanture de l'autel; assez larges pour qu'en y passant les leviers, on pût enlever l'autel;
All the gold from the wave offering used for the work on the sanctuary totaled 29 talents and 730 shekels, according to the sanctuary shekel.
25 Il fit encore l'huile sainte de l'onction, et composa l'encens: œuvre pure de l'art du parfumeur.
The silver from those numbered among the congregation totaled 100 talents and 1,775 shekels, according to the sanctuary shekel—
26 Il fit le réservoir d'airain et sa base d'airain, avec l'airain des miroirs des femmes, qui jeûnèrent devant la porte du tabernacle le jour où il le dressa.
a beka per person, that is, half a shekel, according to the sanctuary shekel, from everyone twenty years of age or older who had crossed over to be numbered, a total of 603,550 men.
27 Il fit le réservoir, afin que Moïse et Aaron et ses fils s’y lavassent les pieds et les mains, avant d'entrer dans le tabernacle du témoignage ou de monter à l'autel pour exercer le sacerdoce; ils s'y lavaient comme le Seigneur l'avait prescrit à Moïse.
The hundred talents of silver were used to cast the bases of the sanctuary and the bases of the veil—100 bases from the 100 talents, one talent per base.
With the 1,775 shekels of silver he made the hooks for the posts, overlaid their tops, and supplied bands for them.
The bronze from the wave offering totaled 70 talents and 2,400 shekels.
He used it to make the bases for the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, the bronze altar and its bronze grating, all the utensils for the altar,
the bases for the surrounding courtyard and its gate, and all the tent pegs for the tabernacle and its surrounding courtyard.
