Exodus 31

1 The Lord told Moses,

١ وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا:

2 “I have chosen by name Bezalel, son of Uri, son of Hur, from the tribe of Judah.

٢ «اُنْظُرْ. قَدْ دَعَوْتُ بَصَلْئِيلَ بْنَ أُورِي بْنَ حُورَ مِنْ سِبْطِ يَهُوذَا بِٱسْمِهِ،

3 I have filled him with the Spirit of God giving him ability, creativity, and expertise in all kinds of craftsmanship.

٣ وَمَلَأْتُهُ مِنْ رُوحِ ٱللهِ بِٱلْحِكْمَةِ وَٱلْفَهْمِ وَٱلْمَعْرِفَةِ وَكُلِّ صَنْعَةٍ،

4 He can produce designs in gold, silver, and bronze,

٤ لِٱخْتِرَاعِ مُخْتَرَعَاتٍ لِيَعْمَلَ فِي ٱلذَّهَبِ وَٱلْفِضَّةِ وَٱلنُّحَاسِ،

5 he can cut gemstones to place in settings, and he can carve wood. He is a master of every craft.

٥ وَنَقْشِ حِجَارَةٍ لِلتَّرْصِيعِ، وَنِجَارَةِ ٱلْخَشَبِ، لِيَعْمَلَ فِي كُلِّ صَنْعَةٍ.

6 I have also chosen Oholiab, son of Ahisamach, from the tribe of Dan, to help him. I have also given all the craftsmen the skills needed to make everything that I have ordered you to make:

٦ وَهَا أَنَا قَدْ جَعَلْتُ مَعَهُ أُهُولِيآبَ بْنَ أَخِيسَامَاكَ مِنْ سِبْطِ دَانَ. وَفِي قَلْبِ كُلِّ حَكِيمِ ٱلْقَلْبِ جَعَلْتُ حِكْمَةً، لِيَصْنَعُوا كُلَّ مَا أَمَرْتُكَ:

7 the Tent of Meeting, the Ark of the Testimony and its atonement cover, and all the other furniture in the Tent:

٧ خَيْمَةَ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ، وَتَابُوتَ ٱلشَّهَادَةِ، وَٱلْغِطَاءَ ٱلَّذِي عَلَيْهِ، وَكُلَّ آنِيَةِ ٱلْخَيْمَةِ،

8 the table with its equipment, the pure gold lampstand with all its equipment, the altar of incense,

٨ وَٱلْمَائِدَةَ وَآنِيَتَهَا، وَٱلْمَنَارَةَ ٱلطَّاهِرَةَ وَكُلَّ آنِيَتِهَا، وَمَذْبَحَ ٱلْبَخُورِ،

9 the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the basin plus its stand;

٩ وَمَذْبَحَ ٱلْمُحْرَقَةِ وَكُلَّ آنِيَتِهِ، وَٱلْمِرْحَضَةَ وَقَاعِدَتَهَا،

10 as well as the woven clothes for both Aaron the priest and for his sons to serve as priests,

١٠ وَٱلثِّيَابَ ٱلْمَنْسُوجَةَ، وَٱلثِّيَابَ ٱلْمُقَدَّسَةَ لِهَارُونَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ وَثِيَابَ بَنِيهِ لِلْكَهَانَةِ،

11 as well as anointing oil and fragrant incense for the Holy Place. They are to make them following all the instructions I have given you.”

١١ وَدُهْنَ ٱلْمَسْحَةِ وَٱلْبَخُورَ ٱلْعَطِرَ لِلْقُدْسِ. حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا أَمَرْتُكَ بِهِ يَصْنَعُونَ».

12 The Lord told Moses,

١٢ وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا:

13 “Tell the Israelites, ‘It's absolutely essential that you keep my Sabbaths. The Sabbath will be a sign between me and you for generations to come, so that you'll know that I am the Lord who makes you holy.

١٣ «وَأَنْتَ تُكَلِّمُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلًا: سُبُوتِي تَحْفَظُونَهَا، لِأَنَّهُ عَلَامَةٌ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكُمْ فِي أَجْيَالِكُمْ لِتَعْلَمُوا أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلَّذِي يُقَدِّسُكُمْ،

14 You shall keep the Sabbath because it is holy to you. Anyone who dishonors it must be killed. Anyone who works on that day must be cut off from their people.

١٤ فَتَحْفَظُونَ ٱلسَّبْتَ لِأَنَّهُ مُقَدَّسٌ لَكُمْ. مَنْ دَنَّسَهُ يُقْتَلُ قَتْلًا. إِنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ صَنَعَ فِيهِ عَمَلًا تُقْطَعُ تِلْكَ ٱلنَّفْسُ مِنْ بَيْنِ شَعْبِهَا.

15 Six days you can work, but the seventh day is to be a Sabbath of rest, holy to the Lord. Anyone who does any work on the Sabbath day must be killed.

١٥ سِتَّةَ أَيَّامٍ يُصْنَعُ عَمَلٌ، وَأَمَّا ٱلْيَوْمُ ٱلْسَّابِعُ فَفِيهِ سَبْتُ عُطْلَةٍ مُقَدَّسٌ لِلرَّبِّ. كُلُّ مَنْ صَنَعَ عَمَلًا فِي يَوْمِ ٱلسَّبْتِ يُقْتَلُ قَتْلًا.

16 The Israelites must keep the Sabbath, observing the Sabbath as an everlasting agreement for generations to come.

١٦ فَيَحْفَظُ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلسَّبْتَ لِيَصْنَعُوا ٱلسَّبْتَ فِي أَجْيَالِهِمْ عَهْدًا أَبَدِيًّا.

17 It's a sign between me and the Israelites forever, for the Lord made the heavens and the earth in six days, but on the seventh day he stopped and he rested.’”

١٧ هُوَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَامَةٌ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. لِأَنَّهُ فِي سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ صَنَعَ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلسَّمَاءَ وَٱلْأَرْضَ، وَفِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلسَّابِعِ ٱسْتَرَاحَ وَتَنَفَّسَ».

18 When the Lord finished speaking with Moses on Mount Sinai, he gave him the two tablets of the Testimony, stone tablets written on by the finger of God.

١٨ ثُمَّ أَعْطَى مُوسَى عِنْدَ فَرَاغِهِ مِنَ ٱلْكَلَامِ مَعَهُ فِي جَبَلِ سِينَاءَ لَوْحَيِ ٱلشَّهَادَةِ: لَوْحَيْ حَجَرٍ مَكْتُوبَيْنِ بِإِصْبِعِ ٱللهِ.
