< Exodus 36 >

1 Fecit ergo Beseleel, et Ooliab, et omnis vir sapiens, quibus dedit Dominus sapientiam et intellectum, ut scirent fabre operari quæ in usus Sanctuarii necessaria sunt, et quæ præcepit Dominus.
And Beseleel wrought, and Eliab and every one wise in understanding, to whom was given wisdom and knowledge, to understand to do all the works according to the holy offices, according to all things which the Lord appointed.
2 Cumque vocasset eos Moyses, et omnem eruditum virum, cui dederat Dominus sapientiam, et qui sponte sua obtulerant se ad faciendum opus,
And Moses called Beseleel and Eliab, and all that had wisdom, to whom God gave knowledge in [their] heart, and all who were freely willing to come forward to the works, to perform them.
3 tradidit eis universa donaria filiorum Israel. Qui cum instarent operi, quotidie mane vota populus offerebat.
And they received from Moses all the offerings, which the children of Israel brought for all the works of the sanctuary to do them; and they continued to receive the gifts brought, from those who brought them in the morning.
4 Unde artifices venire compulsi,
And there came all the wise men who wrought the works of the sanctuary, each according to his own work, which they wrought.
5 dixerunt Moysi: Plus offert populus quam necessarium est.
And one said to Moses, The people bring an abundance [too great] in proportion to all the works which the Lord has appointed [them] to do.
6 Iussit ergo Moyses præconis voce cantari: Nec vir nec mulier quidquam offerat ultra in opere Sanctuarii. Sicque cessatum est a muneribus offerendis,
And Moses commanded, and proclaimed in the camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman any longer labour for the offerings of the sanctuary; and the people were restrained from bringing any more.
7 eo quod oblata sufficerent et superabundarent.
And they had materials sufficient for making the furniture, and they left some besides.
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:
And every wise one among those that wrought made the robes of the holy places, which belong to Aaron the priest, as the Lord commanded Moses.
9 quarum una habebat in longitudine vigintiocto cubitos, et in latitudine quattuor. Una mensura erat omnium cortinarum.
And he made the ephod of gold, and blue, and purple, and spun scarlet, and fine linen twined.
10 Coniunxitque cortinas quinque, alteram alteri, et alias quinque sibi invicem copulavit.
And the plates were divided, the threads of gold, so as to interweave with the blue and purple, and with the spun scarlet, and the fine linen twined, they made it a woven work;
11 Fecit et ansas hyacinthinas in ora cortinæ unius ex utroque latere, et in ora cortinæ alterius similiter,
shoulder-pieces joined from both sides, a work woven by mutual twisting of the parts into one another.
12 ut contra se invicem venirent ansæ, et mutuo iungerentur.
They made it of the same material according to the making of it, of gold, and blue, and purple, and spun scarlet, and fine linen twined, as the Lord commanded Moses;
13 Unde et quinquaginta fudit circulos aureos, qui morderent cortinarum ansas, et fieret unum tabernaculum.
and they made the two emerald stones clasped together and set in gold, graven and cut after the cutting of a seal with the names of the children of Israel;
14 Fecit et saga undecim de pilis caprarum ad operiendum tectum tabernaculi:
and he put them on the shoulder-pieces of the ephod, [as] stones of memorial of the children of Israel, as the Lord appointed Moses.
15 unum sagum in longitudine habebat cubitos triginta, et in latitudine cubitos quattuor: unius mensuræ erant omnia saga:
And they made the oracle, a work woven with embroidery, according to the work of the ephod, of gold, and blue, and purple, and spun scarlet, and fine linen twined.
16 quorum quinque iunxit seorsum, et sex alia separatim.
They made the oracle square [and] double, the length of a span, and the breadth of a span, —double.
17 Fecitque ansas quinquaginta in ora sagi unius, et quinquaginta in ora sagi alterius, ut sibi invicem iungerentur.
And there was interwoven with it a woven work of four rows of stones, a series of stones, the first row, a sardius and topaz and emerald;
18 Et fibulas æneas quinquaginta, quibus necteretur tectum, ut unum pallium ex omnibus sagis fieret.
and the second row, a carbuncle and sapphire and jasper;
19 Fecit et opertorium tabernaculi de pellibus arietum rubricatis: aliudque desuper velamentum de pellibus ianthinis.
and the third row, a ligure and agate and amethyst;
20 Fecit et tabulas tabernaculi de lignis setim stantes.
and the fourth row a chrysolite and beryl and onyx set round about with gold, and fastened with gold.
21 Decem cubitorum erat longitudo tabulæ unius: et unum ac semis cubitum latitudo retinebat.
And the stones were twelve according to the names of the children of Israel, graven according to their names like seals, each according to his own name for the twelve tribes.
22 Binæ incastraturæ erant per singulas tabulas, ut altera alteri iungeretur. Sic fecit in omnibus tabernaculi tabulis.
And they made on the oracle turned wreaths, wreathen work, of pure gold,
23 E quibus viginti ad plagam meridianam erant contra Austrum,
and they made two golden circlets and two golden rings.
24 cum quadraginta basibus argenteis. Duæ bases sub una tabula ponebantur ex utraque parte angulorum, ubi incastraturæ laterum in angulis terminantur.
And they put the two golden rings on both the [upper] corners of the oracle;
25 Ad plagam quoque tabernaculi, quæ respicit ad Aquilonem, fecit viginti tabulas,
and they put the golden wreaths on the rings on both sides of the oracle, and the two wreaths into the two couplings.
26 cum quadraginta basibus argenteis, duas bases per singulas tabulas.
And they put them on the two circlets, and they put them on the shoulders of the ephod opposite [each other] in front.
27 Contra Occidentem vero, id est, ad eam partem tabernaculi, quæ mare respicit, fecit sex tabulas,
And they made two golden rings, and put them on the two projections on the top of the oracle, and on the top of the hinder part of the ephod within.
28 et duas alias per singulos angulos tabernaculi retro:
And they made two golden rings, and put them on both the shoulders of the ephod under it, in front by the coupling above the connexion of the ephod.
29 quæ iunctæ erant a deorsum usque sursum, et in unam compaginem pariter ferebantur. Ita fecit ex utraque parte per angulos:
And he fastened the oracle by the rings that were on it to the rings of the ephod, which were fastened with [a string] of blue, joined together with the woven work of the ephod; that the oracle should not be loosed from the ephod, as the Lord commanded Moses.
30 ut octo essent simul tabulæ, et haberent bases argenteas sedecim, binas scilicet bases sub singulis tabulis.
And they made the tunic under the ephod, woven work, all of blue.
31 Fecit et vectes de lignis setim, quinque ad continendas tabulas unius lateris tabernaculi,
And the opening of the tunic in the midst woven closely together, the opening having a fringe round about, that it might not be rent.
32 et quinque alios ad alterius lateris coaptandas tabulas: et extra hos, quinque alios vectes ad occidentalem plagam tabernaculi contra mare.
And they made on the border of the tunic below pomegranates as of a flowering pomegranate tree, of blue, and purple, and spun scarlet, and fine linen twined.
33 Fecit quoque vectem alium, qui per medias tabulas ab angulo usque ad angulum perveniret.
And they made golden bells, and put the bells on the border of the tunic round about between the pomegranates:
34 Ipsa autem tabulata deauravit, fusis basibus earum argenteis. Et circulos eorum fecit aureos, per quos vectes induci possent: quos et ipsos laminis aureis operuit.
a golden bell and a pomegranate on the border of the tunic round about, for the ministration, as the Lord commanded Moses.
35 Fecit et velum de hyacintho, et purpura, vermiculo, ac bysso retorta, opere polymitario, varium atque distinctum:
And they made vestments of fine linen, a woven work, for Aaron and his sons,
36 et quattuor columnas de lignis setim, quas cum capitibus deauravit, fusis basibus earum argenteis.
and the tires of fine linen, and the mitre of fine linen, and the drawers of fine linen twined;
37 Fecit et tentorium in introitu tabernaculi ex hyacintho, purpura, vermiculo, byssoque retorta, opere plumarii:
and their girdles of fine linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet spun, the work of an embroiderer, according as the Lord commanded Moses.
38 et columnas quinque cum capitibus suis, quas operuit auro, basesque earum fudit æneas.
And they made the golden plate, a dedicated thing of the sanctuary, of pure gold;
and he wrote upon it graven letters [as] of a seal, Holiness to the Lord.
And they put it on the border of blue, so that it should be on the mitre above, as the Lord commanded Moses.
