1 Disse o Senhor a Moisés: 2 Fala aos filhos de Israel que me tragam oferta; de todo homem cujo coração o mover para isso, dele recebereis a minha oferta. 3 Esta é a oferta que dele recebereis: ouro, e prata, e bronze, 4 e estofo azul, e púrpura, e carmesim, e linho fino, e pelos de cabra, 5 e peles de carneiro tintas de vermelho, e peles finas, e madeira de acácia, 6 azeite para a luz, especiarias para o óleo de unção e para o incenso aromático, 7 pedras de ônix e pedras de engaste, para a estola sacerdotal e para o peitoral. 8 E me farão um santuário, para que eu possa habitar no meio deles. 9 Segundo tudo o que eu te mostrar para modelo do tabernáculo e para modelo de todos os seus móveis, assim mesmo o fareis.

10 Também farão uma arca de madeira de acácia; de dois côvados e meio será o seu comprimento, de um côvado e meio, a largura, e de um côvado e meio, a altura. 11 De ouro puro a cobrirás; por dentro e por fora a cobrirás e farás sobre ela uma bordadura de ouro ao redor. 12 Fundirás para ela quatro argolas de ouro e as porás nos quatro cantos da arca: duas argolas num lado dela e duas argolas noutro lado. 13 Farás também varais de madeira de acácia e os cobrirás de ouro; 14 meterás os varais nas argolas aos lados da arca, para se levar por meio deles a arca. 15 Os varais ficarão nas argolas da arca e não se tirarão dela. 16 E porás na arca o Testemunho, que eu te darei.

17 Farás também um propiciatório de ouro puro; de dois côvados e meio será o seu comprimento, e a largura, de um côvado e meio. 18 Farás dois querubins de ouro; de ouro batido os farás, nas duas extremidades do propiciatório; 19 um querubim, na extremidade de uma parte, e o outro, na extremidade da outra parte; de uma só peça com o propiciatório fareis os querubins nas duas extremidades dele. 20 Os querubins estenderão as asas por cima, cobrindo com elas o propiciatório; estarão eles de faces voltadas uma para a outra, olhando para o propiciatório. 21 Porás o propiciatório em cima da arca; e dentro dela porás o Testemunho, que eu te darei. 22 Ali, virei a ti e, de cima do propiciatório, do meio dos dois querubins que estão sobre a arca do Testemunho, falarei contigo acerca de tudo o que eu te ordenar para os filhos de Israel.

23 Também farás a mesa de madeira de acácia; terá o comprimento de dois côvados, a largura, de um côvado, e a altura, de um côvado e meio; 24 de ouro puro a cobrirás e lhe farás uma bordadura de ouro ao redor. 25 Também lhe farás moldura ao redor, da largura de quatro dedos, e lhe farás uma bordadura de ouro ao redor da moldura. 26 Também lhe farás quatro argolas de ouro; e porás as argolas nos quatro cantos, que estão nos seus quatro pés. 27 Perto da moldura estarão as argolas, como lugares para os varais, para se levar a mesa. 28 Farás, pois, estes varais de madeira de acácia e os cobrirás de ouro; por meio deles, se levará a mesa. 29 Também farás os seus pratos, e os seus recipientes para incenso, e as suas galhetas, e as suas taças em que se hão de oferecer libações; de ouro puro os farás. 30 Porás sobre a mesa os pães da proposição diante de mim perpetuamente.

31 Farás também um candelabro de ouro puro; de ouro batido se fará este candelabro; o seu pedestal, a sua hástea, os seus cálices, as suas maçanetas e as suas flores formarão com ele uma só peça. 32 Seis hásteas sairão dos seus lados: três de um lado e três do outro. 33 Numa hástea, haverá três cálices com formato de amêndoas, uma maçaneta e uma flor; e três cálices, com formato de amêndoas na outra hástea, uma maçaneta e uma flor; assim serão as seis hásteas que saem do candelabro. 34 Mas no candelabro mesmo haverá quatro cálices com formato de amêndoas, com suas maçanetas e com suas flores. 35 Haverá uma maçaneta sob duas hásteas que saem dele; e ainda uma maçaneta sob duas outras hásteas que saem dele; e ainda mais uma maçaneta sob duas outras hásteas que saem dele; assim se fará com as seis hásteas que saem do candelabro. 36 As suas maçanetas e as suas hásteas serão do mesmo; tudo será de uma só peça, obra batida de ouro puro. 37 Também lhe farás sete lâmpadas, as quais se acenderão para alumiar defronte dele. 38 As suas espevitadeiras e os seus apagadores serão de ouro puro. 39 De um talento de ouro puro se fará o candelabro com todos estes utensílios. 40 Vê, pois, que tudo faças segundo o modelo que te foi mostrado no monte.

1 And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying, 2 Speak unto the children of Israel, that they take for me an offering: of every man whose heart maketh him willing ye shall take my offering. 3 And this is the offering which ye shall take of them: gold, and silver, and brass, 4 and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats’ hair, 5 and rams’ skins dyed red, and sealskins, and acacia wood, 6 oil for the light, spices for the anointing oil, and for the sweet incense, 7 onyx stones, and stones to be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate. 8 And let them make me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among them. 9 According to all that I show thee, the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the furniture thereof, even so shall ye make it.

10 And they shall make an ark of acacia wood: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof. 11 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, within and without shalt thou overlay it, and shalt make upon it a crown of gold round about. 12 And thou shalt cast four rings of gold for it, and put them in the four feet thereof; and two rings shall be on the one side of it, and two rings on the other side of it. 13 And thou shalt make staves of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold. 14 And thou shalt put the staves into the rings on the sides of the ark, wherewith to bear the ark. 15 The staves shall be in the rings of the ark: they shall not be taken from it. 16 And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony which I shall give thee. 17 And thou shalt make a mercy-seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof. 18 And thou shalt make two cherubim of gold; of beaten work shalt thou make them, at the two ends of the mercy-seat. 19 And make one cherub at the one end, and one cherub at the other end: of one piece with the mercy-seat shall ye make the cherubim on the two ends thereof. 20 And the cherubim shall spread out their wings on high, covering the mercy-seat with their wings, with their faces one to another; toward the mercy-seat shall the faces of the cherubim be. 21 And thou shalt put the mercy-seat above upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee. 22 And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy-seat, from between the two cherubim which are upon the ark of the testimony, of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel.

23 And thou shalt make a table of acacia wood: two cubits shall be the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof. 24 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, and make thereto a crown of gold round about. 25 And thou shalt make unto it a border of a handbreadth round about; and thou shalt make a golden crown to the border thereof round about. 26 And thou shalt make for it four rings of gold, and put the rings in the four corners that are on the four feet thereof. 27 Close by the border shall the rings be, for places for the staves to bear the table. 28 And thou shalt make the staves of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold, that the table may be borne with them. 29 And thou shalt make the dishes thereof, and the spoons thereof, and the flagons thereof, and the bowls thereof, wherewith to pour out: of pure gold shalt thou make them. 30 And thou shalt set upon the table showbread before me alway.

31 And thou shalt make a candlestick of pure gold: of beaten work shall the candlestick be made, even its base, and its shaft; its cups, its knops, and its flowers, shall be of one piece with it. 32 And there shall be six branches going out of the sides thereof; three branches of the candlestick out of the one side thereof, and three branches of the candlestick out of the other side thereof: 33 three cups made like almond-blossoms in one branch, a knop and a flower; and three cups made like almond-blossoms in the other branch, a knop and a flower: so for the six branches going out of the candlestick: 34 and in the candlestick four cups made like almond-blossoms, the knops thereof, and the flowers thereof; 35 and a knop under two branches of one piece with it, and a knop under two branches of one piece with it, and a knop under two branches of one piece with it, for the six branches going out of the candlestick. 36 Their knops and their branches shall be of one piece with it; the whole of it one beaten work of pure gold. 37 And thou shalt make the lamps thereof, seven: and they shall light the lamps thereof, to give light over against it. 38 And the snuffers thereof, and the snuffdishes thereof, shall be of pure gold. 39 Of a talent of pure gold shall it be made, with all these vessels. 40 And see that thou make them after their pattern, which hath been showed thee in the mount.

1 The LORD said to Moses,

2 "Tell the Israelites to bring me an offering. You are to receive the offering for me from everyone whose heart prompts them to give.

3 These are the offerings you are to receive from them: gold, silver and bronze;

4 blue, purple and scarlet yarn and fine linen; goat hair;

5 ram skins dyed red and another type of durable leather "; acacia wood;

6 olive oil for the light; spices for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense;

7 and onyx stones and other gems to be mounted on the ephod and breastpiece.

8 "Then have them make a sanctuary for me, and I will dwell among them.

9 Make this tabernacle and all its furnishings exactly like the pattern I will show you.

10 "Have them make an ark "of acacia wood —two and a half cubits long, a cubit and a half wide, and a cubit and a half high. [^3]

11 Overlay it with pure gold, both inside and out, and make a gold molding around it.

12 Cast four gold rings for it and fasten them to its four feet, with two rings on one side and two rings on the other.

13 Then make poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold.

14 Insert the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark to carry it.

15 The poles are to remain in the rings of this ark; they are not to be removed.

16 Then put in the ark the tablets of the covenant law, which I will give you.

17 "Make an atonement cover of pure gold —two and a half cubits long and a cubit and a half wide.

18 And make two cherubim out of hammered gold at the ends of the cover.

19 Make one cherub on one end and the second cherub on the other; make the cherubim of one piece with the cover, at the two ends.

20 The cherubim are to have their wings spread upward, overshadowing the cover with them. The cherubim are to face each other, looking toward the cover.

21 Place the cover on top of the ark and put in the ark the tablets of the covenant law that I will give you.

22 There, above the cover between the two cherubim that are over the ark of the covenant law, I will meet with you and give you all my commands for the Israelites.

23 "Make a table of acacia wood —two cubits long, a cubit wide and a cubit and a half high. [^4]

24 Overlay it with pure gold and make a gold molding around it.

25 Also make around it a rim a handbreadth "wide and put a gold molding on the rim.

26 Make four gold rings for the table and fasten them to the four corners, where the four legs are.

27 The rings are to be close to the rim to hold the poles used in carrying the table.

28 Make the poles of acacia wood, overlay them with gold and carry the table with them.

29 And make its plates and dishes of pure gold, as well as its pitchers and bowls for the pouring out of offerings.

30 Put the bread of the Presence on this table to be before me at all times.

31 "Make a lampstand of pure gold. Hammer out its base and shaft, and make its flowerlike cups, buds and blossoms of one piece with them.

32 Six branches are to extend from the sides of the lampstand —three on one side and three on the other.

33 Three cups shaped like almond flowers with buds and blossoms are to be on one branch, three on the next branch, and the same for all six branches extending from the lampstand.

34 And on the lampstand there are to be four cups shaped like almond flowers with buds and blossoms.

35 One bud shall be under the first pair of branches extending from the lampstand, a second bud under the second pair, and a third bud under the third pair —six branches in all.

36 The buds and branches shall all be of one piece with the lampstand, hammered out of pure gold.

37 "Then make its seven lamps and set them up on it so that they light the space in front of it.

38 Its wick trimmers and trays are to be of pure gold.

39 A talent "of pure gold is to be used for the lampstand and all these accessories.

40 See that you make them according to the pattern shown you on the mountain.
