1And Moses collected all the assembly of the children of Israel, and said to them, These are the things which Jehovah has commanded, to do them.

2Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you a holy day, a sabbath of rest to Jehovah: whoever does work on it shall be put to death. 3Ye shall kindle no fire throughout your dwellings upon the sabbath day.

4And Moses spoke to all the assembly of the children of Israel, saying, This is the word which Jehovah has commanded, saying, 5Take from among you a heave-offering to Jehovah: every one whose heart is willing, let him bring it, Jehovah's heave-offering gold, and silver, and copper, 6and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and byssus, and goats' hair, 7and rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins, and acacia-wood, 8and oil for the light, and spices for the anointing oil, and for the incense of fragrant drugs; 9and onyx stones, and stones to be set for the ephod, and for the breastplate.

10And all who are wise-hearted among you shall come and make all that Jehovah has commanded: 11the tabernacle, its tent, and its covering, its clasps, and its boards, its bars, its pillars, and its bases; 12the ark, and its staves; the mercy-seat, and the veil of separation; 13the table and its staves, and all its utensils, and the shewbread; 14and the lamp-stand for the light, and its utensils, and its lamps, and the oil for the light; 15and the altar of incense, and its staves; and the anointing-oil, and the incense of fragrant drugs; and the entrance-curtain at the entrance of the tabernacle; 16the altar of burnt-offering, and the copper grating for it, its staves, and all its utensils; the laver and its stand; 17the hangings of the court, its pillars, and its bases, and the curtains of the gate of the court; 18the pegs of the tabernacle, and the pegs of the court, and their cords; 19the garments of service, to do service in the sanctuary, the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to serve as priests.

20And all the assembly of the children of Israel departed from before Moses. 21And they came, every one whose heart moved him, and every one whose spirit prompted him; they brought Jehovah's heave-offering for the work of the tent of meeting, and for all its service, and for the holy garments. 22And they came, both men and women; every one who was of willing heart brought nose-rings, and earrings, and rings, and bracelets, all kinds of utensils of gold: every man that waved a wave-offering of gold to Jehovah. 23And every man with whom was found blue, and purple, and scarlet, and byssus, and goats' hair, and rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins, brought them. 24All they that offered a heave-offering of silver and copper brought Jehovah's heave-offering. And every one with whom was found acacia-wood for all manner of work of the service, brought it. 25And every woman that was wise-hearted spun with her hands, and brought what she had spun: the blue, and the purple, and the scarlet, and the byssus. 26And all the women whose heart moved them in wisdom spun goats' hair. 27And the principal men brought the onyx stones, and the stones to be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate; 28and the spice, and the oil for the light, and for the anointing oil, and for the incense of fragrant drugs. 29The children of Israel brought a voluntary offering to Jehovah, every man and woman whose heart prompted them to bring for all manner of work, which Jehovah, by the hand of Moses, had commanded to be done.

30And Moses said to the children of Israel, See, Jehovah has called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, 31and he has filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship, 32and to devise artistic things: to work in gold, and in silver, and in copper, 33and in cutting of stones, for setting, and in carving of wood, to execute all artistic work; 34and he has put in his heart to teach, he and Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan: 35he has filled them with wisdom of heart, to work all manner of work of the engraver, and of the artificer, and of the embroiderer, in blue, and in purple, in scarlet, and in byssus, and of the weaver, even of them that do every kind of work, and of those that devise artistic work
