1From the blue, purple, and scarlet yarn [the craftsmen] made specially woven garments for ministry in the sanctuary, as well as the holy garments for Aaron, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. 1וּמִן־ הַתְּכֵ֤לֶת וְהָֽאַרְגָּמָן֙ וְתוֹלַ֣עַת הַשָּׁנִ֔י עָשׂ֥וּ בִגְדֵי־ שְׂרָ֖ד לְשָׁרֵ֣ת בַּקֹּ֑דֶשׁ וַֽיַּעֲשׂ֞וּ אֶת־ בִּגְדֵ֤י הַקֹּ֙דֶשׁ֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר לְאַהֲרֹ֔ן כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־ מֹשֶֽׁה׃ פ
2Bezalel made the ephod out of gold, with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and finely spun linen. 2וַיַּ֖עַשׂ אֶת־ הָאֵפֹ֑ד זָהָ֗ב תְּכֵ֧לֶת וְאַרְגָּמָ֛ן וְתוֹלַ֥עַת שָׁנִ֖י וְשֵׁ֥שׁ מָשְׁזָֽר׃
3They hammered out thin sheets of gold and cut threads from them to interweave with the blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and fine linen— the work of a skilled craftsman. 3וַֽיְרַקְּע֞וּ אֶת־ פַּחֵ֣י הַזָּהָב֮ וְקִצֵּ֣ץ פְּתִילִם֒ לַעֲשׂ֗וֹת בְּת֤וֹךְ הַתְּכֵ֙לֶת֙ וּבְת֣וֹךְ הָֽאַרְגָּמָ֔ן וּבְת֛וֹךְ תּוֹלַ֥עַת הַשָּׁנִ֖י וּבְת֣וֹךְ הַשֵּׁ֑שׁ מַעֲשֵׂ֖ה חֹשֵֽׁב׃
4They made shoulder pieces for [the ephod], which were joined to two of its corners for fastening it. 4כְּתֵפֹ֥ת עָֽשׂוּ־ ל֖וֹ חֹבְרֹ֑ת עַל־ שְׁנֵ֥י [קצוותו] (קְצוֹתָ֖יו) חֻבָּֽר׃
5And the skillfully woven waistband of the ephod was of one piece with the ephod, with the same workmanship of gold, with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and finely spun linen, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. 5וְחֵ֨שֶׁב אֲפֻדָּת֜וֹ אֲשֶׁ֣ר עָלָ֗יו מִמֶּ֣נּוּ הוּא֮ כְּמַעֲשֵׂהוּ֒ זָהָ֗ב תְּכֵ֧לֶת וְאַרְגָּמָ֛ן וְתוֹלַ֥עַת שָׁנִ֖י וְשֵׁ֣שׁ מָשְׁזָ֑ר כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־ מֹשֶֽׁה׃
6They mounted the onyx stones in gold filigree settings, engraved like a seal with the names of the sons of Israel, 6וַֽיַּעֲשׂוּ֙ אֶת־ אַבְנֵ֣י הַשֹּׁ֔הַם מֻֽסַבֹּ֖ת מִשְׁבְּצֹ֣ת זָהָ֑ב מְפֻתָּחֹת֙ פִּתּוּחֵ֣י חוֹתָ֔ם עַל־ שְׁמ֖וֹת בְּנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
7and fastened them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod as memorial stones for the sons of Israel, as the LORD had commanded Moses. 7וַיָּ֣שֶׂם אֹתָ֗ם עַ֚ל כִּתְפֹ֣ת הָאֵפֹ֔ד אַבְנֵ֥י זִכָּר֖וֹן לִבְנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־ מֹשֶֽׁה׃ פ
8He also made the breastpiece of gold like the ephod, using the work of a skilled craftsman, with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and finely spun linen. 8וַיַּ֧עַשׂ אֶת־ הַחֹ֛שֶׁן מַעֲשֵׂ֥ה חֹשֵׁ֖ב כְּמַעֲשֵׂ֣ה אֵפֹ֑ד זָהָ֗ב תְּכֵ֧לֶת וְאַרְגָּמָ֛ן וְתוֹלַ֥עַת שָׁנִ֖י וְשֵׁ֥שׁ מָשְׁזָֽר׃
9[It] was square and folded over double, a span long and a span wide. 9רָב֧וּעַ הָיָ֛ה כָּפ֖וּל עָשׂ֣וּ אֶת־ הַחֹ֑שֶׁן זֶ֧רֶת אָרְכּ֛וֹ וְזֶ֥רֶת רָחְבּ֖וֹ כָּפֽוּל׃
10And they mounted on it four rows of gemstones. The first row [had] a ruby, a topaz, and an emerald; 10וַיְמַלְאוּ־ ב֔וֹ אַרְבָּעָ֖ה ט֣וּרֵי אָ֑בֶן ט֗וּר אֹ֤דֶם פִּטְדָה֙ וּבָרֶ֔קֶת הַטּ֖וּר הָאֶחָֽד׃
11the second row [had] a turquoise, a sapphire, and a diamond; 11וְהַטּ֖וּר הַשֵּׁנִ֑י נֹ֥פֶךְ סַפִּ֖יר וְיָהֲלֹֽם׃
12the third row [had] a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst; 12וְהַטּ֖וּר הַשְּׁלִישִׁ֑י לֶ֥שֶׁם שְׁב֖וֹ וְאַחְלָֽמָה׃
13and the fourth row [had] a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper. These were mounted in gold filigree settings. 13וְהַטּוּר֙ הָֽרְבִיעִ֔י תַּרְשִׁ֥ישׁ שֹׁ֖הַם וְיָשְׁפֵ֑ה מֽוּסַבֹּ֛ת מִשְׁבְּצ֥וֹת זָהָ֖ב בְּמִלֻּאֹתָֽם׃
14The twelve stones corresponded to the names of the sons of Israel. Each stone was engraved like a seal with one of the names of the twelve tribes. 14וְ֠הָאֲבָנִים עַל־ שְׁמֹ֨ת בְּנֵי־ יִשְׂרָאֵ֥ל הֵ֛נָּה שְׁתֵּ֥ים עֶשְׂרֵ֖ה עַל־ שְׁמֹתָ֑ם פִּתּוּחֵ֤י חֹתָם֙ אִ֣ישׁ עַל־ שְׁמ֔וֹ לִשְׁנֵ֥ים עָשָׂ֖ר שָֽׁבֶט׃
15For the breastpiece they made braided chains of pure gold cord. 15וַיַּעֲשׂ֧וּ עַל־ הַחֹ֛שֶׁן שַׁרְשְׁרֹ֥ת גַּבְלֻ֖ת מַעֲשֵׂ֣ה עֲבֹ֑ת זָהָ֖ב טָהֽוֹר׃
16They also fashioned two gold filigree settings and two gold rings, and fastened the two rings to its two corners. 16וַֽיַּעֲשׂ֗וּ שְׁתֵּי֙ מִשְׁבְּצֹ֣ת זָהָ֔ב וּשְׁתֵּ֖י טַבְּעֹ֣ת זָהָ֑ב וַֽיִּתְּנ֗וּ אֶת־ שְׁתֵּי֙ הַטַּבָּעֹ֔ת עַל־ שְׁנֵ֖י קְצ֥וֹת הַחֹֽשֶׁן׃
17Then they fastened the two gold chains to the two gold rings at the corners of the breastpiece, 17וַֽיִּתְּנ֗וּ שְׁתֵּי֙ הָעֲבֹתֹ֣ת הַזָּהָ֔ב עַל־ שְׁתֵּ֖י הַטַּבָּעֹ֑ת עַל־ קְצ֖וֹת הַחֹֽשֶׁן׃
18and they fastened the other ends of the two chains to the two filigree settings, attaching them to the shoulder pieces of the ephod at the front. 18וְאֵ֨ת שְׁתֵּ֤י קְצוֹת֙ שְׁתֵּ֣י הָֽעֲבֹתֹ֔ת נָתְנ֖וּ עַל־ שְׁתֵּ֣י הַֽמִּשְׁבְּצֹ֑ת וַֽיִּתְּנֻ֛ם עַל־ כִּתְפֹ֥ת הָאֵפֹ֖ד אֶל־ מ֥וּל פָּנָֽיו׃
19They made two other gold rings and put them at the two other corners of the breastpiece, on the inside edge next to the ephod. 19וַֽיַּעֲשׂ֗וּ שְׁתֵּי֙ טַבְּעֹ֣ת זָהָ֔ב וַיָּשִׂ֕ימוּ עַל־ שְׁנֵ֖י קְצ֣וֹת הַחֹ֑שֶׁן עַל־ שְׂפָת֕וֹ אֲשֶׁ֛ר אֶל־ עֵ֥בֶר הָאֵפֹ֖ד בָּֽיְתָה׃
20They made two more gold rings and attached them to the bottom of the shoulder pieces on the front of the ephod, near the seam just above the woven waistband of the ephod. 20וַֽיַּעֲשׂוּ֮ שְׁתֵּ֣י טַבְּעֹ֣ת זָהָב֒ וַֽיִּתְּנֻ֡ם עַל־ שְׁתֵּי֩ כִתְפֹ֨ת הָאֵפֹ֤ד מִלְמַ֙טָּה֙ מִמּ֣וּל פָּנָ֔יו לְעֻמַּ֖ת מֶחְבַּרְתּ֑וֹ מִמַּ֕עַל לְחֵ֖שֶׁב הָאֵפֹֽד׃
21Then they tied the rings of the breastpiece to the rings of the ephod with a cord of blue yarn, so that the breastpiece was above the waistband of the ephod and would not come loose from the ephod, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. 21וַיִּרְכְּס֣וּ אֶת־ הַחֹ֡שֶׁן מִטַּבְּעֹתָיו֩ אֶל־ טַבְּעֹ֨ת הָאֵפֹ֜ד בִּפְתִ֣יל תְּכֵ֗לֶת לִֽהְיֹת֙ עַל־ חֵ֣שֶׁב הָאֵפֹ֔ד וְלֹֽא־ יִזַּ֣ח הַחֹ֔שֶׁן מֵעַ֖ל הָאֵפֹ֑ד כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־ מֹשֶֽׁה׃
22They made the robe of the ephod entirely of blue cloth, the work of a weaver, 22וַיַּ֛עַשׂ אֶת־ מְעִ֥יל הָאֵפֹ֖ד מַעֲשֵׂ֣ה אֹרֵ֑ג כְּלִ֖יל תְּכֵֽלֶת׃
23with an opening in the center of the robe like that of a garment, with a collar around the opening so that it would not tear. 23וּפִֽי־ הַמְּעִ֥יל בְּתוֹכ֖וֹ כְּפִ֣י תַחְרָ֑א שָׂפָ֥ה לְפִ֛יו סָבִ֖יב לֹ֥א יִקָּרֵֽעַ׃
24They made pomegranates of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn and finely spun linen on the lower hem of the robe. 24וַֽיַּעֲשׂוּ֙ עַל־ שׁוּלֵ֣י הַמְּעִ֔יל רִמּוֹנֵ֕י תְּכֵ֥לֶת וְאַרְגָּמָ֖ן וְתוֹלַ֣עַת שָׁנִ֑י מָשְׁזָֽר׃
25They also made bells of pure gold and attached [them] around the hem between the pomegranates, 25וַיַּעֲשׂ֥וּ פַעֲמֹנֵ֖י זָהָ֣ב טָה֑וֹר וַיִּתְּנ֨וּ אֶת־ הַפַּֽעֲמֹנִ֜ים בְּת֣וֹךְ הָרִמֹּנִ֗ים עַל־ שׁוּלֵ֤י הַמְּעִיל֙ סָבִ֔יב בְּת֖וֹךְ הָרִמֹּנִֽים׃
26alternating bells and pomegranates around the lower hem of the robe to be worn for ministry, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. 26פַּעֲמֹ֤ן וְרִמֹּן֙ פַּעֲמֹ֣ן וְרִמֹּ֔ן עַל־ שׁוּלֵ֥י הַמְּעִ֖יל סָבִ֑יב לְשָׁרֵ֕ת כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־ מֹשֶֽׁה׃ ס
27For Aaron and his sons they made tunics of fine linen, the work of a weaver, 27וַֽיַּעֲשׂ֛וּ אֶת־ הַכָּתְנֹ֥ת שֵׁ֖שׁ מַעֲשֵׂ֣ה אֹרֵ֑ג לְאַהֲרֹ֖ן וּלְבָנָֽיו׃
28as well as the turban of fine linen, the ornate headbands and undergarments [of] finely spun linen, 28וְאֵת֙ הַמִּצְנֶ֣פֶת שֵׁ֔שׁ וְאֶת־ פַּאֲרֵ֥י הַמִּגְבָּעֹ֖ת שֵׁ֑שׁ וְאֶת־ מִכְנְסֵ֥י הַבָּ֖ד שֵׁ֥שׁ מָשְׁזָֽר׃
29and the sash of finely spun linen, embroidered with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. 29וְֽאֶת־ הָאַבְנֵ֞ט שֵׁ֣שׁ מָשְׁזָ֗ר וּתְכֵ֧לֶת וְאַרְגָּמָ֛ן וְתוֹלַ֥עַת שָׁנִ֖י מַעֲשֵׂ֣ה רֹקֵ֑ם כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־ מֹשֶֽׁה׃ ס
30They also made the plate of the holy crown [of] pure gold, and they engraved on it, like an inscription on a seal: HOLY TO THE LORD. 30וַֽיַּעֲשׂ֛וּ אֶת־ צִ֥יץ נֵֽזֶר־ הַקֹּ֖דֶשׁ זָהָ֣ב טָה֑וֹר וַיִּכְתְּב֣וּ עָלָ֗יו מִכְתַּב֙ פִּתּוּחֵ֣י חוֹתָ֔ם קֹ֖דֶשׁ לַיהוָֽה׃
31Then they fastened to it a cord of blue yarn it in order to mount it to the turban, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. 31וַיִּתְּנ֤וּ עָלָיו֙ פְּתִ֣יל תְּכֵ֔לֶת לָתֵ֥ת עַל־ הַמִּצְנֶ֖פֶת מִלְמָ֑עְלָה כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־ מֹשֶֽׁה׃ ס
32So all the work for the tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting, was completed. The Israelites did everything just as the LORD had commanded Moses. 32וַתֵּ֕כֶל כָּל־ עֲבֹדַ֕ת מִשְׁכַּ֖ן אֹ֣הֶל מוֹעֵ֑ד וַֽיַּעֲשׂוּ֙ בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל כְּ֠כֹל אֲשֶׁ֨ר צִוָּ֧ה יְהוָ֛ה אֶת־ מֹשֶׁ֖ה כֵּ֥ן עָשֽׂוּ׃ פ
33Then they brought the tabernacle to Moses: the tent with all its furnishings, its clasps, its frames, its crossbars, and its posts and bases; 33וַיָּבִ֤יאוּ אֶת־ הַמִּשְׁכָּן֙ אֶל־ מֹשֶׁ֔ה אֶת־ הָאֹ֖הֶל וְאֶת־ כָּל־ כֵּלָ֑יו קְרָסָ֣יו קְרָשָׁ֔יו [בריחו] (בְּרִיחָ֖יו) וְעַמֻּדָ֥יו וַאֲדָנָֽיו׃
34the covering of ram skins dyed red, the covering of fine leather, and the veil of the covering; 34וְאֶת־ מִכְסֵ֞ה עוֹרֹ֤ת הָֽאֵילִם֙ הַמְאָדָּמִ֔ים וְאֶת־ מִכְסֵ֖ה עֹרֹ֣ת הַתְּחָשִׁ֑ים וְאֵ֖ת פָּרֹ֥כֶת הַמָּסָֽךְ׃
35the Ark of the Testimony with its poles and the mercy seat; 35אֶת־ אֲרֹ֥ן הָעֵדֻ֖ת וְאֶת־ בַּדָּ֑יו וְאֵ֖ת הַכַּפֹּֽרֶת׃
36the table with all its utensils and the Bread of the Presence; 36אֶת־ הַשֻּׁלְחָן֙ אֶת־ כָּל־ כֵּלָ֔יו וְאֵ֖ת לֶ֥חֶם הַפָּנִֽים׃
37the pure gold lampstand with its row of lamps and all its utensils, as well as the oil for the light; 37אֶת־ הַמְּנֹרָ֨ה הַטְּהֹרָ֜ה אֶת־ נֵרֹתֶ֗יהָ נֵרֹ֛ת הַמַּֽעֲרָכָ֖ה וְאֶת־ כָּל־ כֵּלֶ֑יהָ וְאֵ֖ת שֶׁ֥מֶן הַמָּאֽוֹר׃
38the gold altar, the anointing oil, the fragrant incense, and the curtain for the entrance to the tent; 38וְאֵת֙ מִזְבַּ֣ח הַזָּהָ֔ב וְאֵת֙ שֶׁ֣מֶן הַמִּשְׁחָ֔ה וְאֵ֖ת קְטֹ֣רֶת הַסַּמִּ֑ים וְאֵ֕ת מָסַ֖ךְ פֶּ֥תַח הָאֹֽהֶל׃
39the bronze altar with its bronze grating, its poles, and all its utensils; the basin with its stand; 39אֵ֣ת ׀ מִזְבַּ֣ח הַנְּחֹ֗שֶׁת וְאֶת־ מִכְבַּ֤ר הַנְּחֹ֙שֶׁת֙ אֲשֶׁר־ ל֔וֹ אֶת־ בַּדָּ֖יו וְאֶת־ כָּל־ כֵּלָ֑יו אֶת־ הַכִּיֹּ֖ר וְאֶת־ כַּנּֽוֹ׃
40the curtains of the courtyard with its posts and bases, the curtain for the gate of the courtyard, its ropes and tent pegs, and all the equipment for the service of the tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting; 40אֵת֩ קַלְעֵ֨י הֶחָצֵ֜ר אֶת־ עַמֻּדֶ֣יהָ וְאֶת־ אֲדָנֶ֗יהָ וְאֶת־ הַמָּסָךְ֙ לְשַׁ֣עַר הֶֽחָצֵ֔ר אֶת־ מֵיתָרָ֖יו וִיתֵדֹתֶ֑יהָ וְאֵ֗ת כָּל־ כְּלֵ֛י עֲבֹדַ֥ת הַמִּשְׁכָּ֖ן לְאֹ֥הֶל מוֹעֵֽד׃
41and the woven garments for ministering in the sanctuary, both the sacred garments for Aaron the priest and the garments for his sons to serve as priests. 41אֶת־ בִּגְדֵ֥י הַשְּׂרָ֖ד לְשָׁרֵ֣ת בַּקֹּ֑דֶשׁ אֶת־ בִּגְדֵ֤י הַקֹּ֙דֶשׁ֙ לְאַהֲרֹ֣ן הַכֹּהֵ֔ן וְאֶת־ בִּגְדֵ֥י בָנָ֖יו לְכַהֵֽן׃
42The Israelites had done all the work just as the LORD had commanded Moses. 42כְּכֹ֛ל אֲשֶׁר־ צִוָּ֥ה יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־ מֹשֶׁ֑ה כֵּ֤ן עָשׂוּ֙ בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל אֵ֖ת כָּל־ הָעֲבֹדָֽה׃
43And Moses inspected all the work and saw that they had accomplished it just as the LORD had commanded. So Moses blessed them. 43וַיַּ֨רְא מֹשֶׁ֜ה אֶת־ כָּל־ הַמְּלָאכָ֗ה וְהִנֵּה֙ עָשׂ֣וּ אֹתָ֔הּ כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה יְהוָ֖ה כֵּ֣ן עָשׂ֑וּ וַיְבָ֥רֶךְ אֹתָ֖ם מֹשֶֽׁה׃ פ
