3

aYou shall not kindle a fire in any of your dwellings on the sabbath day."

Moses spoke to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, saying, "This is the thing which the LORD has commanded, saying,

aTake from among you a  1contribution to the LORD; whoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it as the LORD'S  1contribution: gold, silver, and  2bronze,

6

and  1blue, purple and scarlet material, fine linen, goats' hair,

7

and rams' skins  1dyed red, and porpoise skins, and acacia wood,

9

and onyx stones and setting stones for the ephod and for the  1breastpiece.

20

Then all the congregation of the sons of Israel departed from Moses' presence.

21

 aEveryone whose heart  1stirred him and everyone whose spirit  2moved him came and brought the LORD'S  3contribution for the work of the tent of meeting and for all its service and for the holy garments.

22

Then all  1whose hearts moved them, both men and women, came and brought brooches and  2earrings and signet rings and bracelets, all articles of gold; so did every man who  3presented an offering of gold to the LORD.

23

Every man,  1who had in his possession  2blue and purple and scarlet material and fine linen and goats' hair and rams' skins  3dyed red and porpoise skins, brought them.

24

Everyone who could make a  1contribution of silver and  2bronze brought the LORD'S  1contribution; and every man  3who had in his possession acacia wood for any work of the service brought it.

25

All the  1skilled women spun with their hands, and brought what they had spun, in  2blue and purple and scarlet material and in fine linen.

26

All the women whose heart  1stirred with a skill spun the goats' hair.

27

The rulers brought the onyx stones and the stones for setting for the ephod and for the  1breastpiece;

28

and  athe spice and the oil for the light and for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense.

29

The  1Israelites, all the men and women, whose heart  2moved them to bring material for all the work, which the LORD had commanded through Moses to be done, brought a  afreewill offering to the LORD.

30

 aThen Moses said to the sons of Israel, "See, the LORD has called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.

31

"And He has filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding and in knowledge and in all  1craftsmanship;

32

 1to make designs for working in gold and in silver and in  2bronze,

33

and in the cutting of stones for settings and in the carving of wood, so as to perform in every inventive work.

34

"He also has put in his heart to teach, both he and  aOholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan.

35

aHe has filled them with  1skill to perform every work of an engraver and of a designer and of an embroiderer, in  2blue and in purple and in scarlet material, and in fine linen, and of a weaver, as performers of every work and makers of designs.
