< Exodus 25 >
1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
And Yhwh spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Loquere filiis Israel ut tollant mihi primitias ab omni homine qui offert ultroneus, accipietis eas.
Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring me an offering: of every man that giveth it willingly with his heart ye shall take my offering.
3 Haec sunt autem quae accipere debeatis: Aurum, et argentum, et aes,
And this is the offering which ye shall take of them; gold, and silver, and brass,
4 hyacinthum et purpuram, coccumque bis tinctum, et byssum, pilos caprarum,
And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats’ hair,
5 et pelles arietum rubricatas, pellesque ianthinas, et ligna setim:
And rams’ skins dyed red, and badgers’ skins, and shittim wood,

9 iuxta omnem similitudinem tabernaculi quod ostendam tibi, et omnium vasorum in cultum eius: sicque facietis illud:
According to all that I shew thee, after the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the instruments thereof, even so shall ye make it.
