Ἔξοδος 31

1 καὶ ἐλάλησεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2 ἰδοὺ ἀνακέκλημαι ἐξ ὀνόματος τὸν Βεσελεηλ τὸν τοῦ Ουριου τὸν Ωρ τῆς φυλῆς Ιουδα

“Behold, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, from the tribe of Judah,

3 καὶ ἐνέπλησα αὐτὸν πνεῦμα θεῖον σοφίας καὶ συνέσεως καὶ ἐπιστήμης ἐν παντὶ ἔργῳ

and I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with wisdom, and understanding, and knowledge in every craft,

4 διανοεῖσθαι καὶ ἀρχιτεκτονῆσαι ἐργάζεσθαι τὸ χρυσίον καὶ τὸ ἀργύριον καὶ τὸν χαλκὸν καὶ τὴν ὑάκινθον καὶ τὴν πορφύραν καὶ τὸ κόκκινον τὸ νηστὸν καὶ τὴν βύσσον τὴν κεκλωσμένην

in order to design whatever must be fabricated from gold, and silver, and brass,

5 καὶ τὰ λιθουργικὰ καὶ εἰς τὰ ἔργα τὰ τεκτονικὰ τῶν ξύλων ἐργάζεσθαι κατὰ πάντα τὰ ἔργα

from marble, and precious stones, and various woods.

6 καὶ ἐγὼ ἔδωκα αὐτὸν καὶ τὸν Ελιαβ τὸν τοῦ Αχισαμαχ ἐκ φυλῆς Δαν καὶ παντὶ συνετῷ καρδίᾳ δέδωκα σύνεσιν καὶ ποιήσουσιν πάντα ὅσα σοι συνέταξα

And I have given to him, as his associate, Oholiab the son of Ahisamach, from the tribe of Dan. And I have placed wisdom in the heart of every artisan, so that they may make everything as I have instructed you:

7 τὴν σκηνὴν τοῦ μαρτυρίου καὶ τὴν κιβωτὸν τῆς διαθήκης καὶ τὸ ἱλαστήριον τὸ ἐπ’ αὐτῆς καὶ τὴν διασκευὴν τῆς σκηνῆς

the tabernacle of the covenant, and the ark of the testimony, and the propitiatory which is over it, and all the vessels of the tabernacle,

8 καὶ τὰ θυσιαστήρια καὶ τὴν τράπεζαν καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη αὐτῆς καὶ τὴν λυχνίαν τὴν καθαρὰν καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη αὐτῆς

and the table and its vessels, the most pure lampstand with its vessels, and the altars of incense

9 καὶ τὸν λουτῆρα καὶ τὴν βάσιν αὐτοῦ

and of holocaust and all their vessels, the washtub with its base,

10 καὶ τὰς στολὰς τὰς λειτουργικὰς Ααρων καὶ τὰς στολὰς τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ ἱερατεύειν μοι

the holy vestments for the ministry of Aaron the priest, and for his sons, so that they may execute their office of sacred rites,

11 καὶ τὸ ἔλαιον τῆς χρίσεως καὶ τὸ θυμίαμα τῆς συνθέσεως τοῦ ἁγίου κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἐγὼ ἐνετειλάμην σοι ποιήσουσιν

the oil of unction, and the incense of aromatics in the Sanctuary. All the things that I have instructed you, they shall make.”

12 καὶ ἐλάλησεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

13 καὶ σὺ σύνταξον τοῖς υἱοῖς Ισραηλ λέγων ὁρᾶτε καὶ τὰ σάββατά μου φυλάξεσθε σημεῖόν ἐστιν παρ’ ἐμοὶ καὶ ἐν ὑμῖν εἰς τὰς γενεὰς ὑμῶν ἵνα γνῶτε ὅτι ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ ἁγιάζων ὑμᾶς

“Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: See that you keep my Sabbath. For it is a sign between me and you among your generations, so that you may know that I am the Lord, who sanctifies you.

14 καὶ φυλάξεσθε τὰ σάββατα ὅτι ἅγιον τοῦτό ἐστιν κυρίου ὑμῖν ὁ βεβηλῶν αὐτὸ θανάτῳ θανατωθήσεται πᾶς ὃς ποιήσει ἐν αὐτῷ ἔργον ἐξολεθρευθήσεται ἡ ψυχὴ ἐκείνη ἐκ μέσου τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ

Keep my Sabbath, for it is holy to you. Whoever will have polluted it, shall die a death. Whoever will have done any work in it, his soul shall perish from the midst of his people.

15 ἓξ ἡμέρας ποιήσεις ἔργα τῇ δὲ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ἑβδόμῃ σάββατα ἀνάπαυσις ἁγία τῷ κυρίῳ πᾶς ὃς ποιήσει ἔργον τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ἑβδόμῃ θανάτῳ θανατωθήσεται

For six days you shall do work. On the seventh day, it is the Sabbath, a rest sanctified by the Lord. All who will have done work on this day shall die.

16 καὶ φυλάξουσιν οἱ υἱοὶ Ισραηλ τὰ σάββατα ποιεῖν αὐτὰ εἰς τὰς γενεὰς αὐτῶν διαθήκη αἰώνιος

Let the sons of Israel keep the Sabbath, and let them celebrate it throughout their generations. It is an everlasting covenant

17 ἐν ἐμοὶ καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς Ισραηλ σημεῖόν ἐστιν αἰώνιον ὅτι ἐν ἓξ ἡμέραις ἐποίησεν κύριος τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ τὴν γῆν καὶ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ἑβδόμῃ ἐπαύσατο καὶ κατέπαυσεν

between me and the sons of Israel, and a perpetual sign. For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and in the seventh he ceased from work.”

18 καὶ ἔδωκεν Μωυσεῖ ἡνίκα κατέπαυσεν λαλῶν αὐτῷ ἐν τῷ ὄρει τῷ Σινα τὰς δύο πλάκας τοῦ μαρτυρίου πλάκας λιθίνας γεγραμμένας τῷ δακτύλῳ τοῦ θεοῦ

And the Lord, having completed speaking in this way on Mount Sinai, gave to Moses two stone tablets of testimony, written with the finger of God.
