Exodus 35

CHAPTER 35 The Choice-portion Offerings

1 And Moses gathered together all the congregation of the sons of Israel. And he said to them, These are the words which the lord told them to do. 2 Six days you shall do works, but on the [²day ¹seventh] you shall rest a holy Sabbath rest to the lord; every one doing work on it -- let him come to an end. 3 You shall not burn a fire in any place of your house on the day of the Sabbaths -- I am the lord. 4 And Moses said to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, saying, This is the saying which the lord ordered, saying, 5 Take from yourselves of them -- a choice-portion to the lord. Every one appreciating in his heart shall bring the first-fruits to the lord -- gold, silver, brass, 6 blue, purple, scarlet [²double ¹being spun], and linen being twined, and hair of goats, 7 and skins of rams dyed red, and skins of blue, and [²wood ¹incorruptible], 8 and oil for the giving light, and incense for the oil of the anointing, and for the compound of the incense, 9 and stones of sardius, and stones for the carving for the shoulder-piece and for the oracle. 10 And all the wise in thought among you, in coming, let him work all things as much as the lord ordered -- 11 the tent, and the covering sheets of leather, and the coverings, and the clasps, and the posts, and the bars, and the pegs, and bases, 12 the ark, and its bearing poles, and the atonement-seat, and the veil, 13 and the table, and its bearing poles, and all its utensils, and the bread loaves of the place setting, 14 and the lamp-stand of the light, and all its utensils, and its lamps, and the oil of the light, 15 and the altar of the incense, and the bearing poles of it, and the oil for the anointing, and incense for the composition, and the draw curtain for the door of the tent, 16 and the altar of the whole burnt-offering, and [³grate ¹its ²brass], and its bearing poles, and all its utensils, and the bathing tub, and it base, 17 and the shrouds of the courtyard, and its posts, 18 and the pegs of the tent, and the pegs of the courtyard, and their cords, and the [²apparels ¹holy] of Aaron the priest, 19 and the apparels in which they officiate in them in the holy place, and the inner garments for the sons of Aaron for the priesthood, and the oil of the anointing, and the incense of the composition. 20 And went forth all the congregation of the sons of Israel from Moses. 21 And [²brought ¹each] what [³offered ¹their ²heart]. And the ones which it seemed good in their soul brought a choice portion to the lord for all the works of the tent of the testimony, and for all the upkeep of it, and for all the [²apparels ¹holy]. 22 And [³brought ¹the ²men] from the women every thing which seemed good in their thought. They brought seals, and ear-rings, and rings, and wreaths, and right armbands -- every item of gold. 23 And all as many as brought choice-portions of gold to the lord, and all which was found by them of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and linen, and skins of rams being dyed red, and skins of blue -- they brought. 24 And everyone removing the choice-portion silver and brass, brought the choice-portions to the lord. And from whomever [³was found ²wood ¹incorruptible] for all the works of the preparation -- they brought. 25 And every woman wise in considering with the hands to spin, brought works being spun -- the blue, and the purple, and the scarlet, and the linen. 26 And all the women to whom it seemed good in their consideration with wisdom, spun the hair of the goats. 27 And the rulers brought the stones of emerald, and the stones for the filling in the shoulder-piece, and for the oracle, 28 and the compositions, and for the oil of the anointing, and the composition of the incense. 29 And every man and woman which brought their consideration, entering to do all the work; as many as the lord ordered them to do through Moses -- [⁴brought ¹the ²sons ³of Israel] the choice-portion to the lord. 30 And Moses said to the sons of Israel, Behold, God has called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah. 31 And he filled him with [²spirit ¹divine] of wisdom, and understanding, and of higher knowledge of all things; 32 to supervise construction according to all the works of the construction; to prepare the gold, and the silver, and the brass, 33 and to cut the stone, and to manufacture the wood things, and to produce with every work of wisdom. 34 And [³assistance ¹indeed ²God gave] in the considering to him, and also to Aholiab, to the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan. 35 And he filled them with wisdom of understanding in considering all things, to perceive, to make the works of the holy place, and the woven works, and embroidered works; to weave with the scarlet and with the linen; to make every work of construction and embroidery.
