[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] [31] [32] [33] [34] [35] [36] [37] [38] [39] [40]

31:1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

31:2 "Behold, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah:

31:3 and I have filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,

31:4 to devise skillful works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,

31:5 and in cutting of stones for setting, and in carving of wood, to work in all manner of workmanship.

31:6 I, behold, I have appointed with him Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan; and in the heart of all who are wise-hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded you:

31:7 the tent of meeting, the ark of the testimony, the mercy seat that is on it, all the furniture of the Tent,

31:8 the table and its vessels, the pure lampstand with all its vessels, the altar of incense,

31:9 the altar of burnt offering with all its vessels, the basin and its base,

31:10 the finely worked garments--the holy garments for Aaron the priest--the garments of his sons to minister in the priest's office,

31:11 the anointing oil, and the incense of sweet spices for the holy place: according to all that I have commanded you they shall do."

31:12 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

31:13 "Speak also to the children of Israel, saying, 'Most assuredly you shall keep my Sabbaths: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that you may know that I am Yahweh who sanctifies you.

31:14 You shall keep the Sabbath therefore; for it is holy to you. Everyone who profanes it shall surely be put to death; for whoever does any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.

31:15 Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest, holy to Yahweh. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day shall surely be put to death.

31:16 Therefore the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant.

31:17 It is a sign between me and the children of Israel forever; for in six days Yahweh made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.'"

31:18 He gave to Moses, when he finished speaking with him on Mount Sinai, the two tablets of the testimony, stone tablets, written with God's finger.
