Exodus 31
1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
2 Ecce, vocavi ex nomine Beseleel filium Uri filii Hur de tribu Juda,
See, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Chur, of the tribe of Judah:
3 et implevi spiritu Dei, sapientia, et intelligentia et scientia in omni opere,
And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,
4 ad excogitandum quidquid fabrefieri potest ex auro, et argento, et ære,
To devise works of art, to work in gold, and in silver, and in copper,
5 marmore, et gemmis, et diversitate lignorum.
And in the cutting of stones, to set them, and in the carving of wood, to work in all manner of workmanship.
6 Dedique ei socium Ooliab filium Achisamech de tribu Dan. Et in corde omnis eruditi posui sapientiam: ut faciant cuncta quæ præcepi tibi,
And behold, I have also given with him Aholiab, the son of Achissamach, of the tribe of Dan, and in the heart of all that are wise-hearted have l put wisdom; and they shall make all that I have commanded thee;
7 tabernaculum fœderis, et arcam testimonii, et propitiatorium, quod super eam est, et cuncta vasa tabernaculi,
The tabernacle of the congregation, and the ark of the testimony, and the cover that is thereupon, and all the vessels of the tabernacle;
8 mensamque et vasa ejus, candelabrum purissimum cum vasis suis, et altaris thymiamatis,
And the table and its vessels, and the pure candlestick with all its vessels, and the altar of incense;
9 et holocausti, et omnia vasa eorum, labrum cum basi sua,
And the altar of burnt-offering with all its vessels, and the laver and its foot;
10 vestes sanctas in ministerio Aaron sacerdoti, et filiis ejus, ut fungantur officio suo in sacris:
And the cloths of service, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister therein;
11 oleum unctionis, et thymiama aromatum in sanctuario, omnia quæ præcepi tibi, facient.
And the anointing oil, and the incense of spices for the holy place: all as I have commanded thee shall they do.
12 Et locutus est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
And the Lord said unto Moses as followeth,
13 Loquere filiis Israël, et dices ad eos: Videte ut sabbatum meum custodiatis: quia signum est inter me et vos in generationibus vestris: ut sciatis quia ego Dominus, qui sanctifico vos.
And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Above all, my sabbaths shall ye keep; for a sign it is between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know that I am the Lord who doth sanctify you.
14 Custodite sabbatum meum, sanctum est enim vobis: qui polluerit illud, morte morietur; qui fecerit in eo opus, peribit anima illius de medio populi sui.
And ye shall keep the sabbath, for it is holy unto you; every one that defileth it shall surely be put to death; for whosoever doeth any work thereon, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
15 Sex diebus facietis opus: in die septimo sabbatum est, requies sancta Domino; omnis qui fecerit opus in hac die, morietur.
Six days may work be done; but on the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the Lord: whosoever doeth any work on the sabbath-day, shall surely be put to death.
16 Custodiant filii Israël sabbatum, et celebrent illud in generationibus suis. Pactum est sempiternum
And the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant.
17 inter me et filios Israël, signumque perpetuum; sex enim diebus fecit Dominus cælum et terram, et in septimo ab opere cessavit.
Between me and the children of Israel it shall be a sign for ever; for in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed:
18 Deditque Dominus Moysi, completis hujuscemodi sermonibus in monte Sinai, duas tabulas testimonii lapideas, scriptas digito Dei.
And he gave unto Moses, when he had finished speaking with him upon mount Sinai, the two tables of the testimony, tables of stone, inscribed with the finger of God.
