Exodus 35:1-22 ▼

1 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 shalt thou 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 Ye shall not burn a fire in any of your dwellings on the sabbath-day; I am the Lord.

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

7 and rams' skins dyed red, and skins dyed blue, and incorruptible wood,

8

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

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

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

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

13 and the table and all its furniture,

14 and the candle-stick for the light and all its furniture,

15 and the incense, and the anointing oil,

16 and the altar and all its furniture;

17 and the curtains of the court, and its posts, and the emerald stones,

18

19 and the holy garments of Aaron the priest, and the garments in which they shall do service; and the garments of priesthood for the sons of Aaron and the anointing oil, and the compound incense.

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

21 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 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.
