| 1 And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying, 2 See, I have called by
name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah: 3 and
I have filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding,
and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship, 4 to devise skilful
works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, 5 and in cutting of
stones for setting, and in carving of wood, to work in all manner of
workmanship. 6 And I, behold, I have appointed with him Oholiab, the son
of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan; and in the heart of all that are
wise-hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded
thee: 7 the tent of meeting, and the ark of the testimony, and the
mercy-seat that is thereupon, and all the furniture of the Tent, 8 and the
table and its vessels, and the pure candlestick with all its vessels, and the
altar of incense, 9 and the altar of burnt-offering with all its vessels,
and the laver and its base, 10 and the finely wrought garments, and the
holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister
in the priest's office, 11 and the anointing oil, and the incense of sweet
spices for the holy place: according to all that I have commanded thee shall
they do.
12 And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying, 13 Speak thou also unto the
children of Israel, saying, Verily ye shall keep my sabbaths: for it is a
sign between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know that I
am Jehovah who sanctifieth you. 14 Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore;
for it is holy unto you: every one that profaneth it shall surely be put to
death; for whosoever doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from
among his people. 15 Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day
is a sabbath of solemn rest, holy to Jehovah: whosoever doeth any work on the
sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death. 16 Wherefore the children of
Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their
generations, for a perpetual covenant. 17 It is a sign between me and the
children of Israel for ever: for in six days Jehovah made heaven and earth,
and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.
18 And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of communing with him
upon mount Sinai, the two tables of the testimony, tables of stone, written
with the finger of God.
