And they came, every ones whose heart stirred him up, and every one whom his spirit made willing, and they brought the LORD's offering to the work of the tabernacle of the congregation, and for all his service, and for the holy 22 garments. And they came, both men and women, as many as were willing hearted, and brought bracelets, and earrings, 5 and rings, and tablets, all jewels of gold and every man that offered offered an offering of gold unto the LORD. 23 And every man, with whom was found blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine 1 Chr. 23. 8. linen, and goats' hair, and red skins of rams, and badgers' skins, brought them. 24 Every one that did offer an offering of silver and brass brought the LORD's offering and every man, with whom was found shittim wood for any work of the 25 service, brought it. And all the women that were wise hearted did spin with ch. 28, 3:31,636 their hands, and brought that which they had spun, both of blue, and of purple, 26 and of scarlet, and of fine linen. And all the women whose heart stirred them up 27 in wisdom spun goats' hair. And the rulers brought onyx stones, and stones to 28 be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate; and 'spice, and oil for the light, 29 and for the anointing oil, and for the sweet incense. The children of Israel brought a "willing offering unto the LORD, every man and woman, whose heart made them willing to bring for all manner of work, which the LORD had commanded to be made by the hand of Moses. 1 Literally, 'shot out rays.' Probably this was designed to support Moses' authority. 2 The old versions supply when,' instead of 'until;' intimating that, when delivering the Divine message, Moses was unveiled. 3 There was room for almost every person to testify his zcal by some offering; for, while the wealthy could bring 30 And Moses said unto the children of Israel, See," the LORD hath called by 31 name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah; and he hath filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding, and in knowledge, 32 and in all manner of workmanship; and to devise curious works, to work in gold, 33 and in silver, and in brass, and in the cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving 34 of wood, to make any manner of cunning work. And he hath put in his heart that he may teach, both he, and Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of 35 Dan. Them hath he filled with wisdom of heart, to work all manner of work, of the engraver, and of the cunning workman, and of the embroiderer, in blue, and in purple, in scarlet, and in fine linen, and of the weaver, even of them that do any work, and of those that devise cunning work. Construction of the tabernacle, and the sacred vessels and vestments. 36 THEN 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 com2 manded. And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wise hearted man, in whose heart the LORD had put wisdom, even every one whose heart stirred 3 him up to come unto the work to do it: and 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. 8 4 And all the wise men, that wrought all the work of the sanctuary, came every 5 man from his work which they made; and they spake unto Moses, saying, "The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work, which the LORD 6 commanded to make. And Moses gave commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man ror woman make any more work for the offering of the sanctuary. So the people were restrained from 7 bringing. For the stuff they had was sufficient for all the work to make it, and too much. 8 And every wise hearted man among them that wrought the work of the ch. 26. I. tabernacle made ten curtains of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and 9 scarlet: with cherubim of cunning work made he them. The length of one curtain was twenty and eight cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: 10 the curtains were all of one size. And he coupled the five curtains one unto 11 another: and the other five curtains he coupled one unto another. And 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 12 second. Fifty loops made he in one curtain, and fifty loops made he in the edge ch. 26. 5. of the curtain which was in the coupling of the second: the loops held one curtain 13 to another. And he made fifty taches of gold, and coupled the curtains one unto another with the taches: so it became one tabernacle. 14 And he made curtains of goats' hair for the tent over the tabernacle: eleven 15 curtains he made them. The length of one curtain was thirty cubits, and four 16 cubits was the breadth of one curtain: the eleven curtains were of one size. And 17 he coupled five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves. And he made fifty loops upon the uttermost edge of the curtain in the coupling, and fifty 18 loops made he upon the edge of the curtain which coupleth the second. And he made fifty taches of brass to couple the tent together, that it might be one. * 1 Cor. 12. 20; Eph. 19 And he made a covering for the tent of rams' skins dyed red, and a covering ch. 26 14 of badgers' skins above that. 20 c And he made boards for the tabernacle of shittim wood, standing up. The 21 length of a board was ten cubits, and the breadth of a board one cubit and a half. 22 One board had two tenons, equally distant one from another: thus did he make 23 for all the boards of the tabernacle. And he made boards for the tabernacle ; 24 twenty boards for the south side southward: and forty sockets of silver he made under the twenty boards; two sockets under one board for his two tenons, and 25 two sockets under another board for his two tenons. And for the other side of 26 the tabernacle, which is toward the north corner, he made twenty boards, and their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under 27 another board. And for the sides of the tabernacle westward he made six boards. 28 And two boards made he for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides. And 29 they were coupled beneath, and coupled together at the head thereof to one ring: 30 thus he did to both of them in both the corners. And there were eight boards; 31 eh. 26. 15. and their sockets were sixteen sockets of silver, under every board two sockets. 32 tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and 33 five bars for the boards of the tabernacle for the sides westward. And he made 34 the middle bar to shoot through the boards from the one end to the other. And he overlaid the boards with gold, and made their rings of gold to be places for the bars, and overlaid the bars with gold. 35 And he made a vail of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen: 36 with cherubim made he it of cunning work. And 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. 37 ch. 26. 31. And he made an hanging for the tabernacle door of blue, and purple, and ch. 26. 36. 38 scarlet, and fine twined linen, of needlework; and the five pillars of it with their hooks and he overlaid their chapiters and their fillets with gold: but their five sockets were of brass. 37 And Bezaleel made & the ark of shittim wood: two cubits and a half was the ch. 2. 10–18 length of it, and a cubit and a half the breadth of it, and a cubit and a half the 2 height of it and he overlaid it with pure gold within and without, and made a 3 crown of gold to it round about.

And he made two cherubims of gold, beaten out of one piece made he them, on the two ends of the 8 mercy seat; one cherub on the end on this side, and another cherub on the other end on that side out of the mercy seat made he the cherubim on the two ends 9 thereof. And the cherubim spread out their wings on high, and covered with their wings over the mercy seat, with their faces one to another; even to the mercy seatward were the faces of the cherubim. 6 10 And he made the table of shittim wood: two cubits was the length thereof, 11 and a cùbit the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof: and he overlaid it with pure gold, and made thereunto a crown of gold round about. 12 Also he made thereunto a border of an hand breadth round about; and made a 13 crown of gold for the border thereof round about. And he cast for it four rings of gold, and put the rings upon the four corners that were in the four feet thereof. 14 Over against the border were the rings, the places for the staves to bear the table. 15 And he made the staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold, to bear 16 the table. And he made the vessels which were upon the table, his dishes, and his spoons, and his bowls, and his covers to cover withal, of pure gold. 17 And he made the 'candlestick of pure gold: of beaten work made he the candlestick; his shaft, and his branch, his bowls, his knops, and his flowers, were 18 of the same and six branches going out of the sides thereof; three branches of the candlestick out of the one side thereof, and three branches of the candlestick 19 out of the other side thereof: three bowls made after the fashion of almonds in one branch, a knop and a flower; and three bowls made like almonds in another branch, a knop and a flower: so throughout the six branches going out of the 20 candlestick. And in the candlestick were four bowls made like almonds, his 21 knops, and his flowers: and a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the same, 22 according to the six branches going out of it. Their knops and their branches 23 were of the same: all of it was one beaten work of pure gold. And he made his 24 seven lamps, and his snuffers, and his snuffdishes, of pure gold. Of a talent of pure gold made he it, and all the vessels thereof.

And he overlaid it with pure gold, both the top of it, and the sides thereof round about, and the horns of it: also he 27 made unto it a crown of gold round about.
