Exodus 36
1 fecit ergo Beselehel et Hooliab et omnis vir sapiens quibus dedit Dominus sapientiam et intellectum ut scirent fabre operari quae in usus sanctuarii necessaria sunt et quae praecepit Dominus
So Bezalel and Oholiab and every skilled person to whom Yahweh has given skill and ability to know how to do any work in the construction of the holy place are to do the work according to all that Yahweh has commanded.”
2 cumque vocasset eos Moses et omnem eruditum virum cui dederat Deus sapientiam et qui sponte sua obtulerant se ad faciendum opus
Moses summoned Bezalel, Oholiab, and every skillful person in whose mind Yahweh had given skill, and whose heart stirred within him to come and do the work.
3 tradidit eis universa donaria filiorum Israhel qui cum instarent operi cotidie mane vota populus offerebat
They received from Moses all the offerings that the Israelites had brought for constructing the holy place. The people were still bringing freewill offerings every morning to Moses.
4 unde artifices venire conpulsi
So all the skilled people working on the holy place came from the work that they had been doing.
5 dixerunt Mosi plus offert populus quam necessarium est
The craftsmen told Moses, “The people are bringing much more than enough for doing the work that Yahweh has commanded us to do.”
6 iussit ergo Moses praeconis voce cantari nec vir nec mulier quicquam ultra offerat in opere sanctuarii sicque cessatum est a muneribus offerendis
So Moses instructed that no one in the camp should bring any more offerings for the construction of the holy place. Then the people stopped bringing these gifts.
7 eo quod oblata sufficerent et superabundarent
They had more than enough materials for all the work.
8 feceruntque omnes corde sapientes ad explendum opus tabernaculi cortinas decem de bysso retorta et hyacintho et purpura coccoque bis tincto opere vario et arte polymita
So all the craftsmen among them constructed the tabernacle with ten curtains made from fine linen and blue, purple, and scarlet wool with the designs of cherubim. This was the work of Bezalel, the very skilled craftsman.
9 quarum una habebat in longitudine viginti octo cubitos et in latitudine quattuor una mensura erat omnium cortinarum
The length of each curtain was twenty-eight cubits, the width four cubits. All the curtains were of the same size.
10 coniunxitque cortinas quinque alteram alteri et alias quinque sibi invicem copulavit
Bezalel joined five curtains to each other, and the other five curtains he also joined to each other.
11 fecit et ansas hyacinthinas in ora cortinae unius ex utroque latere et in ora cortinae alterius similiter
He made loops of blue along the outer edge of the end curtain of one set, and he did the same along the outer edge of the end curtain in the second set.
12 ut contra se invicem venirent ansae et mutuo iungerentur
He made fifty loops on the first curtain and fifty loops on the edge of the end curtain in the second set. So the loops were opposite to each another.
13 unde et quinquaginta fudit circulos aureos qui morderent cortinarum ansas et fieret unum tabernaculum
He made fifty gold clasps and joined the curtains together with them so that the tabernacle became united.
14 fecit et saga undecim de pilis caprarum ad operiendum tectum tabernaculi
Bezalel made curtains of goat hair for a tent over the tabernacle; he made eleven of these curtains.
15 unum sagum habebat in longitudine cubitos triginta et in latitudine cubitos quattuor unius mensurae erant omnia saga
The length of each curtain was thirty cubits, and the width of each curtain was four cubits. Each of the eleven curtains was of the same size.
16 quorum quinque iunxit seorsum et sex alia separatim
He joined five curtains to each other and the other six curtains to each other.
17 fecitque ansas quinquaginta in ora sagi unius et quinquaginta in ora sagi alterius ut sibi invicem iungerentur
He made fifty loops on the edge of the end curtain of the first set, and fifty loops along the edge of the end curtain that joined the second set.
18 et fibulas aeneas quinquaginta quibus necteretur tectum et unum pallium ex omnibus sagis fieret
Bezalel made fifty bronze clasps to join the tent together so that it might be one piece.
19 fecit et opertorium tabernaculi de pellibus arietum rubricatis aliudque desuper velamentum de pellibus ianthinis
He made for the tabernacle a covering of ram skins dyed red, another covering of fine leather to go above that.
20 fecit et tabulas tabernaculi de lignis setthim stantes
Bezalel made vertical frames out of acacia wood for the tabernacle.
21 decem cubitorum erat longitudo tabulae unius et unum ac semis cubitum latitudo retinebat
The length of each frame was ten cubits, and the width of each frame was one and a half cubits.
22 binae incastraturae erant per singulas tabulas ut altera alteri iungeretur sic fecit in omnibus tabulis tabernaculi
Each frame had two wooden pegs for joining the frames together. He did this for all the frames of the tabernacle.
23 e quibus viginti ad plagam meridianam erant contra austrum
He made the frames for the tabernacle in this way: twenty frames for the south side.
24 cum quadraginta basibus argenteis duae bases sub una tabula ponebantur ex utraque angulorum parte ubi incastraturae laterum in angulis terminantur
Bezalel made forty silver bases to go under the twenty frames. There were two bases under one frame to join the frames together, and also two bases under each of the other frames to join frames together.
25 ad plagam quoque tabernaculi quae respicit ad aquilonem fecit viginti tabulas
For the second side of the tabernacle, on the north side, he made twenty frames
26 cum quadraginta argenteis basibus duas bases per singulas tabulas
and their forty silver bases. There were two bases under the first frame, two bases under the next frame, and so on.
27 contra occidentem vero id est ad eam partem tabernaculi quae mare respicit fecit sex tabulas
For the back of the tabernacle on the west, Bezalel made six frames.
28 et duas alias per singulos angulos tabernaculi retro
He made two frames for the back corners of the tabernacle.
29 quae iunctae erant deorsum usque sursum et in unam conpagem pariter ferebantur ita fecit ex utraque parte per angulos
These frames were separate at the bottom, but joined at the top in one ring. He made two of them in this way for the two corners.
30 ut octo essent simul tabulae et haberent bases argenteas sedecim binas scilicet bases sub singulis tabulis
There were eight frames, together with their silver bases. There were sixteen bases in all, two bases under the first frame, two bases under the next frame, and so on.
31 fecit et vectes de lignis setthim quinque ad continendas tabulas unius lateris tabernaculi
Bezalel made crossbars of acacia wood—five for the frames of the one side of the tabernacle,
32 et quinque alios ad alterius lateris tabulas coaptandas et extra hos quinque alios vectes ad occidentalem plagam tabernaculi contra mare
five crossbars for the frames of the other side of the tabernacle, and five crossbars for the frames for the back side of the tabernacle to the west.
33 fecit quoque vectem alium qui per medias tabulas ab angulo usque ad angulum perveniret
He made the crossbar in the center of the frames, that is, halfway up, to reach from end to end.
34 ipsa autem tabulata deauravit et circulos eorum fecit aureos per quos vectes induci possint quos et ipsos aureis lamminis operuit
He covered the frames with gold. He made their rings of gold, for them to serve as holders for the crossbars, and he covered the bars with gold.
35 fecit et velum de hyacintho purpura vermiculo ac bysso retorta opere polymitario varium atque distinctum
Bezalel made the curtain of blue, purple, and scarlet wool, and of fine linen, with designs of cherubim, the work of a skillful workman.
36 et quattuor columnas de lignis setthim quas cum capitibus deauravit fusis basibus earum argenteis
He made for the curtain four pillars of acacia wood, and he covered them with gold. He also made gold hooks for the pillars, and he cast for them four silver bases.
37 fecit et tentorium in introitu tabernaculi ex hyacintho purpura vermiculo byssoque retorta opere plumarii
He made a hanging for the tent entrance. It was made of blue, purple, and scarlet wool, using fine linen, the work of an embroiderer.
38 et columnas quinque cum capitibus suis quas operuit auro basesque earum fudit aeneas
He also made the hanging's five pillars with hooks. He covered their tops and their rods with gold. Their five bases were made of bronze.
