1And Beseleel wrought , and Eliab and every one wise in understanding, to whom was given wisdom and knowledge, to understand to do all the works according to the holy offices, according to all things which the Lord appointed.
1Then wrought Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wise hearted man, in whom the Lord put wisdom and understanding to know how to work all manner of work for the service of the sanctuary, according to all that the Lord had commanded.
2And Moses called Beseleel and Eliab, and all that had wisdom, to whom God gave knowledge in [their] heart , and all who were freely willing to come forward to the works, to perform them.
2And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wise hearted man, in whose heart the Lord had put wisdom, even every one whose heart stirred him up to come unto the work to do it:
3And they received from Moses all the offerings, which the children of Israel brought for all the works of the sanctuaryto do them; and they continued to receive the gifts brought, from those who brought them in the morning.
3And they received of Moses all the offering, which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, to make it withal. And they brought yet unto him free offerings every morning.
4And there came all the wise men who wrought the works of the sanctuary, each according to his own work, which they wrought.
4And all the wise men, that wrought all the work of the sanctuary, came every man from his work which they made;
5And one said to Moses, The people bring an abundance [too great] in proportion to all the works which the Lord has appointed [them] to do.
5And they spake unto Moses, saying, The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work, which the Lord commanded to make.
6And Moses commanded, and proclaimed in the camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman any longer labor for the offerings of the sanctuary; and the people were restrained from bringing any more.
6And Moses gave commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman make any more work for the offering of the sanctuary. So the people were restrained from bringing.
7And they had materials sufficient for making the furniture, and they left some besides.
7For the stuff they had was sufficient for all the work to make it, and too much.
8And every wise one among those that wrought made the robes of the holy places, which belong to Aaron the priest, as the Lord commanded Moses.
8And every wise hearted man among them that wrought the work of the tabernacle made ten curtains of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet: with cherubims of cunning work made he them.
9And he made the ephod of gold, and blue, and purple, and spun scarlet, and fine linen twined.
9The length of one curtain was twenty and eight cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: the curtains were all of one size.
10And the plates were divided, the threads of gold, so as to interweave with the blue and purple, and with the spun scarlet, and the fine linen twined, they made it a woven work;
10And he coupled the five curtains one unto another: and the other five curtains he coupled one unto another.
11shoulder-pieces joined from both sides, a work woven by mutual twisting of the parts into one another .
11And he made loops of blue on the edge of one curtain from the selvedge in the coupling: likewise he made in the uttermost side of another curtain, in the coupling of the second.
12They made it of the same material according to the making of it, of gold, and blue, and purple, and spun scarlet, and fine linen twined, as the Lord commanded Moses;
12Fifty loops made he in one curtain, and fifty loops made he in the edge of the curtain which was in the coupling of the second: the loops held one curtain to another.
13and they made the two emerald stones clasped together and set in gold, graven and cut after the cutting of a seal with the names of the children of Israel;
13And he made fifty taches of gold, and coupled the curtains one unto another with the taches: so it became one tabernacle.
14and he put them on the shoulder-pieces of the ephod, [as] stones of memorial of the children of Israel, as the Lord appointed Moses.
14And he made curtains of goats’ hair for the tent over the tabernacle: eleven curtains he made them.
15And they made the oracle, a work woven with embroidery, according to the work of the ephod, of gold, and blue, and purple, and spun scarlet, and fine linen twined.
15The length of one curtain was thirty cubits, and four cubits was the breadth of one curtain: the eleven curtains were of one size.
16They made the oracle square [and] double, the length of a span, and the breadth of a span, —double.
16And he coupled five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves.
17And there was interwoven with it a woven work of four rows of stones, a series of stones, the first row, a sardius and topaz and emerald;
17And he made fifty loops upon the uttermost edge of the curtain in the coupling, and fifty loops made he upon the edge of the curtain which coupleth the second.
18and the second row, a carbuncle and sapphire and jasper;
18And he made fifty taches of brass to couple the tent together, that it might be one.
19and the third row, a ligure and agate and amethyst;
19And he made a covering for the tent of rams’ skins dyed red, and a covering of badgers’ skins above that.
20and the fourth row a chrysolite and beryl and onyx set round about with gold, and fastened with gold.
20And he made boards for the tabernacle of shittim wood, standing up.
21And the stones were twelve according to the names of the children of Israel, graven according to their names like seals, each according to his own name for the twelve tribes.
21The length of a board was ten cubits, and the breadth of a board one cubit and a half.
22And they made on the oracle turned wreaths, wreathen work, of pure gold,
22One board had two tenons, equally distant one from another: thus did he make for all the boards of the tabernacle.
23and they made two golden circlets and two golden rings.
23And he made boards for the tabernacle; twenty boards for the south side southward:
24And they put the two golden rings on both the [upper] corners of the oracle;
24And forty sockets of silver he made under the twenty boards; two sockets under one board for his two tenons, and two sockets under another board for his two tenons.
25and they put the golden wreaths on the rings on both sides of the oracle, and the two wreaths into the two couplings.
25And for the other side of the tabernacle, which is toward the north corner, he made twenty boards,
26And they put them on the two circlets, and they put them on the shoulders of the ephod opposite [each other] in front.
26And their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.
27And they made two golden rings, and put them on the two projections on the top of the oracle, and on the top of the hinder part of the ephod within.
27And for the sides of the tabernacle westward he made six boards.
28And they made two golden rings, and put them on both the shoulders of the ephod under it, in front by the coupling above the connexion of the ephod.
28And two boards made he for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides.
29And he fastened the oracle by the rings that were on it to the rings of the ephod, which were fastened with [a string] of blue, joined together with the woven work of the ephod; that the oracle should not be loosed from the ephod, as the Lord commanded Moses.
29And they were coupled beneath, and coupled together at the head thereof, to one ring: thus he did to both of them in both the corners.
30And they made the tunic under the ephod, woven work, all of blue.
30And there were eight boards; and their sockets were sixteen sockets of silver, under every board two sockets.
31And the opening of the tunic in the midst woven closely together, the opening having a fringe round about, that it might not be torn.
31And he made bars of shittim wood; five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,
32And they made on the border of the tunic below pomegranates as of a flowering pomegranate tree, of blue, and purple, and spun scarlet, and fine linen twined.
32And five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle for the sides westward.
33And they made golden bells, and put the bells on the border of the tunic round about between the pomegranates:
33And he made the middle bar to shoot through the boards from the one end to the other.
34a golden bell and a pomegranate on the border of the tunic round about, for the ministration, as the Lord commanded Moses.
34And he overlaid the boards with gold, and made their rings of gold to be places for the bars, and overlaid the bars with gold.
35And they made vestments of fine linen, a woven work, for Aaron and his sons,
35And he made a vail of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen: with cherubims made he it of cunning work.
36and the tires of fine linen, and the mitre of fine linen, and the drawers of fine linen twined;
36And he made thereunto four pillars of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold: their hooks were of gold; and he cast for them four sockets of silver.
37and their girdles of fine linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet spun, the work of an embroiderer, according as the Lord commanded Moses.
37And he made an hanging for the tabernacle door of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, of needlework;
38And they made the golden plate, a dedicated thing of the sanctuary, of pure gold;
