Exodus 35

VIN^{(i) 1} Moses assembled the whole Israelite congregation and said to them: "These are the things the LORD commanded you to do: ² Six days work will be done, but on the seventh day there will be to you a holy day, a Sabbath of solemn rest to the LORD. Whoever does any work in it will be put to death. ³ ye do not burn a fire in any of your dwellings on the sabbath-day.' ⁴ Moses spoke to all the people of Israel: "This is what the LORD has commanded: ⁵ 'Take from among yourselves an offering for the LORD. Everyone whose heart is willing shall bring it as an offering for the LORD: gold, silver, and bronze; ⁶ blue, purple, and scarlet material; fine linen and goat hair; ⁷ ram skins dyed red, dolphin skins, acacia wood, ⁸ oil for the light, spices for the anointing oil and for the sweet incense, ⁹ onyx stones and stones for mountings on the ephod and the breast piece. ¹⁰ 'All the skilled workers among you are to come and make everything that the LORD commanded: ¹¹ The tabernacle, its tent, and its covering; its clasps and its frames; its bars, its pillars, and its bases; ¹² the ark and its poles; the atonement cover and the curtain of the screen; ¹³ the table and its poles, and all its vessels, and the Bread of the Presence; ¹⁴ the lampstand also for the light, with its vessels, its lamps, and the oil for the light; ¹⁵ the altar of incense, its poles, the anointing oil, the aromatic incense, and the screen for the doorway at the entrance to the tabernacle, ¹⁶ The altar of burnt offering, with its bronze grate, its poles, and all its utensils, the laver and its base, ¹⁷ the curtains for the enclosure, its posts and bases; the curtain for the entrance of the enclosure; ¹⁸ the pegs for the tabernacle, the pegs for the court, and their cords, ¹⁹ the woven garments to minister in the sanctuary, the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments for his sons, to minister as priests. ²⁰ Then the entire congregation of the Israelites withdrew from Moses' presence, ²¹ and every person whose heart moved him and all whose spirits prompted them, brought an offering to the LORD for constructing the Tent of Meeting, for all its service, and for the holy garments. ²² All willing, men and women alike, brought all kinds of gold jewelry: pins, brooches, earrings, signet rings, and pendants. They offered these gifts of gold to the LORD. ²³ Everyone who had blue, purple, and scarlet material, fine linen, goat hair, ram skins dyed red, and dolphin skins brought them. ²⁴ Everyone who could give an offering of silver and bronze brought it as a contribution for the LORD. Also all who had acacia wood for any use in the work brought it. ²⁵ Every skilled woman spun with her hands, and brought what she spun: blue, purple, and scarlet material, and fine linen. ²⁶ And all the women whose heart lifted them with skill spun the goat hair. ²⁷ The leaders brought onyx stones and stones to be set in the ephod and the breast piece, ²⁸ And they brought spice and oil, for the light and for the anointing oil and for the sweet incense. ²⁹ Each Israelite man and woman whose heart was prompted brought something as a freewill offering to the LORD for all the work which the LORD had commanded them to do through Moses. ³⁰ And Moses said to the Israelites, "See, the LORD has called by name Bezalel the son of Uri the son of Hur, from the tribe of Judah. ³¹ and he has filled him with the Spirit of God, with wisdom, with understanding, and with knowledge of all kinds of work, ³² to make artistic designs, to work in gold, silver, and bronze, ³³ to cut stones for setting, to carve wood, and to engage in all kinds of artistic work. ³⁴ "the LORD also gave Bezalel and Oholiab, son of Ahisamach, from the tribe of Dan the ability to teach others. ³⁵ He hath filled them with wisdom of heart to do every work, of engraver, and designer, and embroiderer (in blue, and in purple, in scarlet, and in linen), and weaver, who do any work, and of designers of designs.
