Exodus 35

1 And all the multitude of the children of Israel being gathered together, he said to them: These are the things which the Lord hath commanded to be done.

And Moses gathered all the congregation of the children of Israel together, and said, These are the words which the Lord has spoken for [you] to do them.

2 Six days you shall do work: the seventh day shall be holy unto you, the sabbath, and the rest of the Lord: he that shall do any work on it, shall be put to death.

Six days shall you perform works, but on the seventh day [shall be] rest—a holy sabbath—a rest for the Lord: every one that does work on it, let him die.

3 You shall kindle no fire in any of your habitations on the sabbath day.

You shall not burn a fire in any of your dwellings on the sabbath-day; I [am] the Lord.

4 And Moses said to all the assembly of the children of Israel: This is the word the Lord hath commanded, saying:

And Moses spoke to all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying, This [is] the thing which the Lord has appointed you, saying,

5 Set aside with you firstfruits to the Lord. Let every one that is willing and hath a ready heart, offer them to the Lord: gold, and silver, and brass,

Take of yourselves an offering for the Lord: every one that engages in his heart shall bring the first fruits to the Lord; gold, silver, brass,

6 Violet and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, and fine linen, goats’ hair,

blue, purple, double scarlet spun, and fine linen spun, and goats' hair,

7 And rams’ skins dyed red, and violet coloured skins, setim wood,

and rams' skins dyed red, and skins [dyed] blue, and incorruptible wood,

8 And oil to maintain lights, and to make ointment, and most sweet incense.

and sardine stones, and stones for engraving for the shoulder-piece and full-length robe.

9 Onyx stones, and precious stones, for the adorning of the ephod and the rational.

And every man that is wise in heart amongst you, let him come and work all things whatever the Lord has commanded.

10 Whosoever of you is wise, let him come, and make that which the Lord hath commanded:

The tabernacle, and the cords, and the coverings, and the rings, and the bars, and the posts,

11 To wit, the tabernacle and the roof thereof, and the cover, the rings, and the board work with the oars, the pillars, and the sockets:

and the ark of the testimony, and its staves, and its propitiatory, and the veil,

12 The ark and the staves, the propitiatory, and the veil that is drawn before it:

and the curtains of the court, and its posts,

13 The table with the bars and the vessels, and the loaves of proposition:

and the emerald stones,

14 The candlestick to bear up the lights, the vessels thereof and the lamps, and the oil for the nourishing of fires:

and the incense, and the anointing oil,

15 The altar of incense, and the bars, and the oil of unction and the incense of spices: the hanging at the door of the tabernacle:

and the table and all its furniture,

16 The altar of holocaust, and its grate of brass, with the bars and vessels thereof: the laver and its foot:

and the candlestick for the light and all its furniture,

17 The curtains of the court with the pillars and the sockets, the hanging in the doors of the entry,

and the altar and all its furniture;

18 The pins of the tabernacle and of the court with their little cords:

and the holy garments of Aaron the priest, and the garments in which they shall do service;

19 The vestments that are to be used in the ministry of the sanctuary, the vesture of Aaron the high priest, and of his sons, to do the office of priesthood to me.

and the garments of priesthood for the sons of Aaron and the anointing oil, and the compound incense.

20 And all the multitude of the children of Israel going out from the presence of Moses,

And all the congregation of the children of Israel went out from Moses. And they brought, they whose heart prompted them, and they to whoever it seemed good in their mind, each and offering:

21 Offered firstfruits to the Lord with a most ready and devout mind, to make the work of the tabernacle of the testimony. Whatsoever was necessary to the service, and to the holy vestments,

and they brought an offering to the Lord for all the works of the tabernacle of witness, and all its services, and for all the robes of the sanctuary.

22 Both men and women gave bracelets and earrings, rings and tablets: every vessel of gold was set aside to be offered to the Lord.

And the men, even every one to whom it seemed good in his heart, brought from the women, [even] brought seals and ear-rings, and finger-rings, and necklaces, and bracelets, every article of gold.

23 If any man had violet, and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, fine linen and goats’ hair, rams’ skins dyed red, and violet coloured skins,

And all as many as brought ornaments of gold to the Lord, and with whoever fine linen was found; and they brought skins [dyed] blue, and rams' skins dyed red.

24 Metal of silver and brass, they offered it to the Lord, and setim wood for divers uses.

And every one that offered an offering brought silver and brass, the offerings to the Lord; and [they] with whom was found incorruptible wood; and they brought [offerings] for all the works of the preparation.

25 The skillful women also gave such things as they had spun, violet, purple, and scarlet, and fine linen,

And every woman skilled in her heart to spin with her hands, brought spun [articles], the blue, and purple, and scarlet and fine linen.

26 And goats’ hair, giving all of their own accord.

And all the women to whom it seemed good in their heart in their wisdom, spun the goats' hair.

27 But the princes offered onyx stone, and precious stones, for the ephod and the rational,

And the rulers brought the emerald stones, and the stones for setting in the ephod, and the oracle,

28 And spices and oil for the lights, and for the preparing of ointment, and to make the incense of most sweet savour.

and the compounds both for the anointing oil, and the composition of the incense.

29 All both men and women with devout mind offered gifts, that the works might be done which the Lord had commanded by the hand of Moses. All the children of Israel dedicated voluntary offerings to the Lord.

And every man and woman whose mind inclined them to come in and do all the works as many as the Lord appointed them to do by Moses—[they] the children of Israel brought an offering to the Lord.

30 And Moses said to the children of Israel: Behold the Lord hath called by name Beseleel the son of Uri the son of Hur of the tribe of Juda.

And Moses said to the children of Israel, Behold, God has called by name Beseleel the [son] of Urias the [son of] Or, of the tribe of Juda,

31 And hath filled him with the spirit of God, with wisdom and understanding and knowledge and all learning.

and has filled him with a divine spirit of wisdom and understanding, and knowledge of all things,

32 To devise and to work in gold and silver and brass,

to labour skilfully in all works of cunning workmanship, to form the gold and the silver and the brass,

33 And in engraving stones, and in carpenters’ work. Whatsoever can be devised artificially,

and to work in stone, and to fashion the wood, and to work in every work of wisdom.

34 He hath given in his heart: Ooliab also the son of Achisamech of the tribe of Dan:

And [God] gave improvement in understanding both to him, and to Eliab the [son] of Achisamach of the tribe of Dan.

35 Both of them hath he instructed with wisdom, to do carpenters’ work and tapestry, and embroidery in blue and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, and fine linen, and to weave all things, and to invent all new things.

And [God] filled them with wisdom, understanding [and] perception, to understand to work all the works of the sanctuary, and to weave the woven and embroidered work with scarlet and fine linen, to do all work of curious workmanship [and] embroidery.
