1 Tendo Moisés convocado toda a congregação dos filhos de Israel, disse-lhes: São estas as palavras que o Senhor ordenou que se cumprissem: 2 Trabalhareis seis dias, mas o sétimo dia vos será santo, o sábado do repouso solene ao Senhor; quem nele trabalhar morrerá. 3 Não acendereis fogo em nenhuma das vossas moradas no dia do sábado.

4 Disse mais Moisés a toda a congregação dos filhos de Israel: Esta é a palavra que o Senhor ordenou, dizendo: 5 Tomai, do que tendes, uma oferta para o Senhor; cada um, de coração disposto, voluntariamente a trará por oferta ao Senhor: ouro, prata, bronze, 6 estofo azul, púrpura, carmesim, linho fino, pelos de cabra, 7 peles de carneiro tintas de vermelho, peles finas, madeira de acácia, 8 azeite para a iluminação, especiarias para o óleo da unção e para o incenso aromático, 9 pedras de ônix e pedras de engaste para a estola sacerdotal e para o peitoral.

10 Venham todos os homens hábeis entre vós e façam tudo o que o Senhor ordenou: 11 o tabernáculo com sua tenda e a sua coberta, os seus ganchos, as suas tábuas, as suas vergas, as suas colunas e as suas bases; 12 a arca e os seus varais, o propiciatório e o véu do reposteiro; 13 a mesa e os seus varais, e todos os seus utensílios, e os pães da proposição; 14 o candelabro da iluminação, e os seus utensílios, e as suas lâmpadas, e o azeite para a iluminação; 15 o altar do incenso e os seus varais, e o óleo da unção, e o incenso aromático, e o reposteiro da porta à entrada do tabernáculo; 16 o altar do holocausto e a sua grelha de bronze, os seus varais e todos os seus utensílios, a bacia e o seu suporte; 17 as cortinas do átrio, e as suas colunas, e as suas bases, e o reposteiro da porta do átrio; 18 as estacas do tabernáculo, e as estacas do átrio, e as suas cordas; 19 as vestes do ministério para ministrar no santuário, as vestes santas do sacerdote Arão e as vestes de seus filhos, para oficiarem como sacerdotes.

20 Então, toda a congregação dos filhos de Israel saiu da presença de Moisés, 21 e veio todo homem cujo coração o moveu e cujo espírito o impeliu e trouxe a oferta ao Senhor para a obra da tenda da congregação, e para todo o seu serviço, e para as vestes sagradas. 22 Vieram homens e mulheres, todos dispostos de coração; trouxeram fivelas, pendentes, anéis, braceletes, todos os objetos de ouro; todo homem fazia oferta de ouro ao Senhor; 23 e todo homem possuidor de estofo azul, púrpura, carmesim, linho fino, pelos de cabra, peles de carneiro tintas de vermelho e peles de animais marinhos os trazia. 24 Todo aquele que fazia oferta de prata ou de bronze por oferta ao Senhor a trazia; e todo possuidor de madeira de acácia para toda obra do serviço a trazia. 25 Todas as mulheres hábeis traziam o que, por suas próprias mãos, tinham fiado: estofo azul, púrpura, carmesim e linho fino. 26 E todas as mulheres cujo coração as moveu em habilidade fiavam os pelos de cabra. 27 Os príncipes traziam pedras de ônix, e pedras de engaste para a estola sacerdotal e para o peitoral, 28 e os arômatas, e o azeite para a iluminação, e para o óleo da unção, e para o incenso aromático. 29 Os filhos de Israel trouxeram oferta voluntária ao Senhor, a saber, todo homem e mulher cujo coração os dispôs para trazerem uma oferta para toda a obra que o Senhor tinha ordenado se fizesse por intermédio de Moisés.

30 Disse Moisés aos filhos de Israel: Eis que o Senhor chamou pelo nome a Bezalel, filho de Uri, filho de Hur, da tribo de Judá, 31 e o Espírito de Deus o encheu de habilidade, inteligência e conhecimento em todo artifício, 32 e para elaborar desenhos e trabalhar em ouro, em prata, em bronze, 33 e para lapidação de pedras de engaste, e para entalho de madeira, e para toda sorte de lavores. 34 Também lhe dispôs o coração para ensinar a outrem, a ele e a Aoliabe, filho de Aisamaque, da tribo de Dã. 35 Encheu-os de habilidade para fazer toda obra de mestre, até a mais engenhosa, e a do bordador em estofo azul, em púrpura, em carmesim e em linho fino, e a do tecelão, sim, toda sorte de obra e a elaborar desenhos.

1 And Moses assembled all the congregation of the children of Israel, and said unto them, These are the words which Jehovah hath commanded, that ye should do them. 2 Six days shall work be done; but on the seventh day there shall be to you a holy day, a sabbath of solemn rest to Jehovah: whosoever doeth any 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 Jehovah commanded, saying, 5 Take ye from among you an offering unto Jehovah; whosoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it, Jehovah’s offering: 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 sealskins, and acacia wood, 8 and oil for the light, and spices for the 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 let every wise-hearted man among you come, and make all that Jehovah hath commanded: 11 the tabernacle, its tent, and its covering, its clasps, and its boards, its bars, its pillars, and its sockets; 12 the ark, and the staves thereof, the mercy-seat, and the veil of the screen; 13 the table, and its staves, and all its vessels, and the showbread; 14 the candlestick also for the light, and its vessels, and its lamps, and the oil for the light; 15 and the altar of incense, and its staves, and the anointing oil, and the sweet incense, and the screen for the door, at the door of the tabernacle; 16 the altar of burnt-offering, with its grating of brass, it staves, and all its vessels, the laver and its base; 17 the hangings of the court, the pillars thereof, and their sockets, and the screen for the gate of the court; 18 the pins of the tabernacle, and the pins of the court, and their cords; 19 the finely wrought garments, for ministering 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 brought Jehovah’s offering, for the work of the tent of meeting, and for all the service thereof, and for the holy garments. 22 And they came, both men and women, as many as were willing-hearted, and brought brooches, and ear-rings, and signet-rings, and armlets, all jewels of gold; even every man that offered an offering of gold unto Jehovah. 23 And every man, with whom was found blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats’ hair, and rams’ skins dyed red, and sealskins, brought them. 24 Every one that did offer an offering of silver and brass brought Jehovah’s offering; and every man, with whom was found acacia 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, the blue, and the purple, the scarlet, and the fine linen. 26 And all the women whose heart stirred them up in wisdom spun the goats’ hair. 27 And the rulers brought the onyx stones, and the stones to be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate; 28 and the spice, and the oil; for the light, and for the anointing oil, and for the sweet incense. 29 The children of Israel brought a freewill-offering unto Jehovah; every man and woman, whose heart made them willing to bring for all the work, which Jehovah had commanded to be made by Moses.

30 And Moses said unto the children of Israel, See, Jehovah hath called by name Bezalel 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 skilful works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, 33 and in cutting of stones for setting, and in carving of wood, to work in all manner of skilful workmanship. 34 And he hath put in his heart that he may teach, both he, and Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan. 35 Them hath he filled with wisdom of heart, to work all manner of workmanship, of the engraver, and of the skilful 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 workmanship, and of those that devise skilful works.

1 Moses assembled the whole Israelite community and said to them, "These are the things the LORD has commanded you to do:

2 For six days, work is to be done, but the seventh day shall be your holy day, a day of sabbath rest to the LORD. Whoever does any work on it is to be put to death.

3 Do not light a fire in any of your dwellings on the Sabbath day."

4 Moses said to the whole Israelite community, "This is what the LORD has commanded:

5 From what you have, take an offering for the LORD. Everyone who is willing is to bring to the LORD an offering of gold, silver and bronze;

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

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

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

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

10 "All who are skilled among you are to come and make everything the LORD has commanded:

11 the tabernacle with its tent and its covering, clasps, frames, crossbars, posts and bases;

12 the ark with its poles and the atonement cover and the curtain that shields it;

13 the table with its poles and all its articles and the bread of the Presence;

14 the lampstand that is for light with its accessories, lamps and oil for the light;

15 the altar of incense with its poles, the anointing oil and the fragrant incense; the curtain for the doorway at the entrance to the tabernacle;

16 the altar of burnt offering with its bronze grating, its poles and all its utensils; the bronze basin with its stand;

17 the curtains of the courtyard with its posts and bases, and the curtain for the entrance to the courtyard;

18 the tent pegs for the tabernacle and for the courtyard, and their ropes;

19 the woven garments worn for ministering in the sanctuary —both the sacred garments for Aaron the priest and the garments for his sons when they serve as priests."

20 Then the whole Israelite community withdrew from Moses' presence,

21 and everyone who was willing and whose heart moved them came and brought an offering to the LORD for the work on the tent of meeting, for all its service, and for the sacred garments.

22 All who were willing, men and women alike, came and brought gold jewelry of all kinds: brooches, earrings, rings and ornaments. They all presented their gold as a wave offering to the LORD.

23 Everyone who had blue, purple or scarlet yarn or fine linen, or goat hair, ram skins dyed red or the other durable leather brought them.

24 Those presenting an offering of silver or bronze brought it as an offering to the LORD, and everyone who had acacia wood for any part of the work brought it.

25 Every skilled woman spun with her hands and brought what she had spun —blue, purple or scarlet yarn or fine linen.

26 And all the women who were willing and had the skill spun the goat hair.

27 The leaders brought onyx stones and other gems to be mounted on the ephod and breastpiece.

28 They also brought spices and olive oil for the light and for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense.

29 All the Israelite men and women who were willing brought to the LORD freewill offerings for all the work the LORD through Moses had commanded them to do.

30 Then Moses said to the Israelites, "See, the LORD has chosen Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah,

31 and he has filled him with the Spirit of God, with wisdom, with understanding, with knowledge and with all kinds of skills —

32 to make artistic designs for work in gold, silver and bronze,

33 to cut and set stones, to work in wood and to engage in all kinds of artistic crafts.

34 And he has given both him and Oholiab son of Ahisamak, of the tribe of Dan, the ability to teach others.

35 He has filled them with skill to do all kinds of work as engravers, designers, embroiderers in blue, purple and scarlet yarn and fine linen, and weavers —all of them skilled workers and designers.
