1 And Moses gathered all the congregation of the children of
Israel together, and said unto them, These are the words which the LORD hath
commanded, that ye should do them.
2 Six
days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you an holy
day, a sabbath of rest to the LORD: whosoever doeth work therein shall be put
to death.
3 Ye
shall kindle no fire throughout your habitations upon the sabbath day.
4 And
Moses spake unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying, This is the
thing which the LORD commanded, saying,
5 Take
ye from among you an offering unto the LORD: whosoever is of a
willing heart, let him bring it, an offering of the LORD; gold, and silver, and
brass,
6 And
blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' hair,
7 And
rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins, and shittim wood,
8 And
oil for the light, and spices for anointing oil, and for the sweet incense,
9 And
onyx stones, and stones to be set for the ephod, and for the breastplate.
10 And
every wise hearted among you shall come, and make all that the LORD hath
commanded;
11 The
tabernacle, his tent, and his covering, his taches, and his boards, his bars,
his pillars, and his sockets,
12 The
ark, and the staves thereof, with the mercy seat, and the vail of the
covering,
13 The
table, and his staves, and all his vessels, and the shewbread,
14 The
candlestick also for the light, and his furniture, and his lamps, with the oil
for the light,
15 And
the incense altar, and his staves, and the anointing oil, and the sweet
incense, and the hanging for the door at the entering in of the tabernacle,
16 The
altar of burnt offering, with his brasen grate, his staves, and all his
vessels, the laver and his foot,
17 The
hangings of the court, his pillars, and their sockets, and the hanging for the
door of the court,
18 The
pins of the tabernacle, and the pins of the court, and their cords,
19 The
cloths of service, to do service in the holy place, the holy garments for Aaron
the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister in the priest's office.
20 And
all the congregation of the children of Israel departed from the presence of
Moses.
21 And
they came, every one whose heart stirred him up, and every one whom his spirit
made willing, and they brought the LORD'S offering to
the work of the tabernacle of the congregation, and for all his service, and
for the holy garments.
22 And
they came, both men and women, as many as were willing hearted, and brought
bracelets, and earrings, and rings, and tablets, all jewels of gold: and every
man that offered offered an offering of gold unto the LORD.
23 And
every man, with whom was found blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen,
and goats' hair, and red skins of rams, and badgers' skins,
brought them.
24 Every
one that did offer an offering of silver and brass brought the LORD'S offering:
and every man, with whom was found shittim wood for any work of the service,
brought it.
25 And
all the women that were wise hearted did spin with their hands, and brought
that which they had spun, both of blue, and of purple, and of
scarlet, and of fine linen.
26 And
all the women whose heart stirred them up in wisdom spun goats' hair.
27 And
the rulers brought onyx stones, and stones to be set, for the ephod, and for
the breastplate;
28 And
spice, and oil for the light, and for the anointing oil, and for the sweet
incense.
29 The
children of Israel brought a willing offering unto the LORD, every man and
woman, whose heart made them willing to bring for all manner of work, which the
LORD had commanded to be made by the hand of Moses.
30 And
Moses said unto the children of Israel, See, the LORD hath called by name
Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah;
31 And
he hath filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding, and in
knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship;
32 And
to devise curious works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,
33 And
in the cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of wood, to
make any manner of cunning work.
34 And
he hath put in his heart that he may teach, both he, and Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach,
of the tribe of Dan.
35 Them
hath he filled with wisdom of heart, to work all manner of work, of the
engraver, and of the cunning workman, and of the embroiderer, in blue, and in
purple, in scarlet, and in fine linen, and of the weaver, even of
them that do any work, and of those that devise cunning work.
