Exodus 35
1Therefore all the multitude of the children of Israel being gathered together, he said to them: These are the things which our Lord hath commanded to be done.
2Six days you shall do work: the seventh day shall be holy unto you, the sabbath, and rest of our Lord: he that shall do any work in it, shall be slain.
3You shall not kindle fire in all your habitations on the sabbath day.
4And Moyses said to all the assembly of the children of Israel: This is the word that our Lord hath commanded, saying:
5Separate with you first fruits to the Lord. Let every one that is willing & hath a ready heart, offer them to the Lord: gold and silver, and brass,
6hyacinth and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, and silk, the hair of goats,
7and rams' skins dyed red, and janthine skins, the wood setim,
8and oil to maintain lights, and to make ointment, and most sweet incense.
9Onyx stones, and precious stones, for the adorning of the Ephod and the Rationale.
10Whosoever of you is wise, let him come, and make that which our Lord hath commanded:
11to wit, the Tabernacle, and the roof thereof, and the cover, the rings, and the boardwork with the bars, the pins & the feet:
12the Ark and the staves, the propitiatory, and the veil, that is drawn before it:
13the Table with the bars and the vessels, and the loaves of proposition:
14the Candlestick to bear up the lights, the vessels thereof and the lamps, and the oil to the nourishing of fires:
15the Altar of incense, and the bars, and the oil of unction and the incense of spices: the Hanging at the door of the tabernacle:
16the Altar of holocaust, and his grate of brass, with the bars and vessels thereof: the Laver and his feet:
17the Curtains of the court with the pillars and the feet, the hanging in the doors of the entry,
18the pins of the tabernacle and of the court with their little cords:
19the Vestments, that are to be used in the ministry of the sanctuary, the vesture of Aaron the high-Priest, and of his sons, to do the function of Priesthood unto me.
20And all the multitude of the children of Israel going forth from the sight of Moyses,
21offered first fruits to our Lord with a most prompt and devout mind, to make the work of the tabernacle of the testimony. Whatsoever was necessary to the service thereof and to the holy vestments,
22both men and women did give, tablets and earlets, rings and bracelets: every vessel of gold was separated for the donaries of our Lord.
23If any man had hyacinth, and purple, and scarlet twice dyed red, and janthine skins,
24metal of silver and brass, they offered to our Lord, and the wood setim for diverse uses.
25But the skillful women also gave such things as they had spun, hyacinth, purple, and scarlet, and silk,
26and goats' hair, giving all of their own accord.
27But the Princes offered onyx stones, and precious stones, for the Ephod and the Rationale,
28and spices and oil to maintain the lights, and for the preparing of ointment, and to make the incense of most sweet savour.
29All men and women with devout mind offered donaries, that the works might be made which our Lord had commanded by the hand of Moyses. All the children of Israel did dedicate voluntary things to our Lord.
30And Moyses said to the children of Israel: Behold, our Lord hath called by name Beseleel the son of Uri the son of Hur of the tribe of Juda.
31And hath filled him with the spirit of God, with wisdom and intelligence, and science and all learning,
32to devise and to make work in gold and silver, and brass,
33and in graving stones, and in carpenter's work. Whatsoever can be devised artificially,
34he hath given in his heart: Ooliab also the son of Achisamech of the tribe of Dan:
35both hath he instructed with wisdom, to make the works of a carpenter, a tapester, an embroiderer of hyacinth and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, and silk, and to weave all things, and to invent all new things.
