Exodus 31
1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
2 Ecce, vocavi ex nomine Beseleel filium Uri filii Hur de tribu Juda,
'See, I have called by name Bezaleel, son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah,
3 et implevi spiritu Dei, sapientia, et intelligentia et scientia in omni opere,
and I fill him [with] the Spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all work,
4 ad excogitandum quidquid fabrefieri potest ex auro, et argento, et ære,
to devise devices to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,
5 marmore, et gemmis, et diversitate lignorum.
and in graving of stone for settings, and in graving of wood to work in all work.
6 Dedique ei socium Ooliab filium Achisamech de tribu Dan. Et in corde omnis eruditi posui sapientiam: ut faciant cuncta quæ præcepi tibi,
'And I, lo, I have given with him Aholiab, son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, and in the heart of every wise-hearted one I have given wisdom, and they have made all that which I have commanded thee.
7 tabernaculum fœderis, et arcam testimonii, et propitiatorium, quod super eam est, et cuncta vasa tabernaculi,
'The tent of meeting, and the ark of testimony, and the mercy-seat which [is] on it, and all the vessels of the tent,
8 mensamque et vasa ejus, candelabrum purissimum cum vasis suis, et altaris thymiamatis,
and the table and its vessels, and the pure candlestick and all its vessels, and the altar of the perfume,
9 et holocausti, et omnia vasa eorum, labrum cum basi sua,
and the altar of the burnt-offering and all its vessels, and the laver and its base,
10 vestes sanctas in ministerio Aaron sacerdoti, et filiis ejus, ut fungantur officio suo in sacris:
and the coloured garments, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, for acting as priests in;
11 oleum unctionis, et thymiama aromatum in sanctuario, omnia quæ præcepi tibi, facient.
and the anointing oil, and the perfume of the spices for the sanctuary; according to all that I have commanded thee — they do.'
12 Et locutus est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
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, speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, Only, My sabbaths ye do keep, for it [is] a sign between Me and you, to your generations, to know that I, Jehovah, am sanctifying 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 have kept the sabbath, for it [is] holy to you, he who is polluting it is certainly put to death — for any who doeth work in it — that person hath even been cut off from the midst of 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 is work done, and in the seventh day [is] a sabbath of holy rest to Jehovah; any who doeth work in the sabbath-day is certainly put to death,
16 Custodiant filii Israël sabbatum, et celebrent illud in generationibus suis. Pactum est sempiternum
and the sons of Israel have observed the sabbath; to keep the sabbath to their generations [is] a covenant age-during,
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 sons of Israel it [is] a sign — to the age; for six days Jehovah made the heavens and the earth, and in the seventh day He hath ceased, and is refreshed.'
18 Deditque Dominus Moysi, completis hujuscemodi sermonibus in monte Sinai, duas tabulas testimonii lapideas, scriptas digito Dei.
And He giveth unto Moses, when He finisheth speaking with him in mount Sinai, two tables of the testimony, tables of stone, written by the finger of God.
