Exodus 25:1-9 ▼

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2 “Speak to the sons of Israel, so that they may take the first-fruits to me. You shall accept these from every man who offers of his own accord.

3 Now these are the things that you must accept: Gold, and silver, and brass,

4 hyacinth and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine linen, the hair of goats,

5 and the skins of rams, dyed red, and skins of violet, and setim wood,

6 oil to prepare lights, aromatics as ointments and sweet-smelling incense,

7 onyx stones and gems to adorn the ephod as well as the breastplate.

8 And they shall make a sanctuary for me, and I will live in their midst.

9 According to exact likeness of the tabernacle, and all of the vessels for its rituals, that I will reveal to you, so shall you make it.
