  • 2 “For six days work may be done, but on the seventh day you shall have a holy day, a sabbath of complete rest to the LORD; whoever does any work on it shall be put to death.
  • 3 “You shall not kindle a fire in any of your dwellings on the sabbath day.”
  • 4 Moses spoke to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, saying, “This is the thing which the LORD has commanded, saying,
  • 5 'Take from among you a contribution to the LORD; whoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it as the LORD'S contribution: gold, silver, and bronze,
  • 6 and blue, purple and scarlet material, fine linen, goats' hair,
  • 7 and rams' skins dyed red, and porpoise skins, and acacia wood,
  • 8 and oil for lighting, and spices for the anointing oil, and for the fragrant incense,

  • 10 'Let every skillful man among you come, and make all that the LORD has commanded:
  • 11 the tabernacle, its tent and its covering, its hooks and its boards, its bars, its pillars, and its sockets;
  • 12 the ark and its poles, the mercy seat, and the curtain of the screen;
  • 13 the table and its poles, and all its utensils, and the bread of the Presence;
  • 14 the lampstand also for the light and its utensils and its lamps and the oil for the light;
  • 15 and the altar of incense and its poles, and the anointing oil and the fragrant incense, and the screen for the doorway at the entrance of the tabernacle;

  • 20 Then all the congregation of the sons of Israel departed from Moses' presence.
  • 21 Everyone whose heart stirred him and everyone whose spirit moved him came and brought the LORD'S contribution for the work of the tent of meeting and for all its service and for the holy garments.
  • 22 Then all whose hearts moved them, both men and women, came and brought brooches and earrings and signet rings and bracelets, all articles of gold; so did every man who presented an offering of gold to the LORD.
  • 23 Every man, who had in his possession blue and purple and scarlet material and fine linen and goats' hair and rams' skins dyed red and porpoise skins, brought them.

  • 29 The Israelites, all the men and women, whose heart moved them to bring material for all the work, which the LORD had commanded through Moses to be done, brought a freewill offering to the LORD.
  • 30 Then Moses said to the sons of Israel, “See, the LORD has called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.
  • 31 “And He has filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding and in knowledge and in all craftsmanship;
  • 32 to make designs for working in gold and in silver and in bronze,
  • 33 and in the cutting of stones for settings and in the carving of wood, so as to perform in every inventive work.
  • 34 “He also has put in his heart to teach, both he and Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan.
  • 35 “He has filled them with skill to perform every work of an engraver and of a designer and of an embroiderer, in blue and in purple and in scarlet material, and in fine linen, and of a weaver, as performers of every work and makers of designs.
