* And Moses gathered all the congregation of the sons of Israel together and said to them , These [are ] the words which the LORD has commanded , to do them . * Six days shall work be done , but on the seventh day there shall be to you a holy day , a sabbath of rest to the LORD . Whoever does work in it shall be put to death . * You shall kindle no fire throughout your living places upon the Sabbath day . * And Moses spoke to all the congregation of the sons of Israel saying , This [is ] the thing which the LORD commanded . He said , * Take from among you an offering to the LORD . Whoever [is ] of a willing heart , let him bring it , an offering of the LORD : gold , and silver , and bronze , * and blue , and purple , and scarlet , and bleached [linen ], and goats ' [hair ], * and rams ' skins dyed red , and badgers ' skins , and acacia-wood , * and oil for the light , and spices for anointing oil , and for the sweet incense , * and onyx stones , and stones to be set for the ephod and for the breast-pocket . * And every wise-hearted one among you shall come and make all that the LORD has commanded : * the tabernacle , its tent , its covering , its clasps , and its boards , its bars , its pillars , and its sockets . * And make the ark and the staves of it , the mercy-seat , and the veil of the covering , * the table , and its staves , and all its vessels , and showbread , * also the lampstand for the light , and its vessels , and its lamp , with the oil for the light , * and the incense altar , and its staves , and the anointing oil , and the sweet incense , and the hanging of the door at the entering in of the tabernacle . * And make the altar of burnt offering , with its bronze grate , its staves , and all its vessels , the laver and its base , * the hangings of the court , its pillars and their sockets , and the hanging , for the door of the court , * the pins of the tabernacle , and the pins of the court , and their cords , * the woven garments to do service in the holy [place ], the holy garments for Aaron the priest , and the garments of his sons , to minister in the priest 's office . * And all the congregation of the sons of Israel departed from the presence of Moses . * And they came , every one whose heart stirred him up , and every one whom His spirit made willing . They brought the LORD 's offering to the work of the tabernacle of the congregation , and for all His service , and for the holy garments . * And the men came in together with the women , as many as were willing-hearted , bringing bracelets and earrings , and rings and ornaments , all jewels of gold . And everyone who offered waved a wave offering of gold to the LORD . * And everyone [with ] whom was found blue , and purple , and scarlet , and bleached [linen ], and goats ' [hair ], and red skins of rams , and badgers ' skins , brought them . * Everyone lifting up an offering of silver and bronze brought the LORD 's offering . And everyone with whom was found acacia-wood for any work of the service , brought [it ]. * And every wise-hearted woman spun with her hands . And they brought spun yarn , blue , and purple , scarlet , and bleached [linen ]. * And all the women whose hearts were lifted up in wisdom spun goats ' hair . * And the rulers brought onyx stones , and stones to be set , for the ephod and for the breast-pocket . * And they brought spice and oil , for the light and for the anointing oil and for the sweet incense . * The sons of Israel brought a willing offering to the LORD , every man and woman whose heart made them willing to bring for all kinds of work which the LORD had commanded to be made by the hand of Moses . * And Moses said to the sons of Israel , See , the LORD has called the son of Uri the son of Hur , by the name Bezaleel , of the tribe of Judah . * And He has filled him with the spirit of God in wisdom , in understanding , and in knowledge , and in all kinds of work , * and to devise designs , to work in gold , and in silver , and in bronze , * and in the cutting of stones to set , and in carving of wood , to make any kind of skillful work . * And He has put in his heart that he may teach , he and Aholiab the son of Ahisamach , of the tribe of Daniel . * He has filled them [with ] wisdom of heart to work all kinds of work ; of the smith , and of the skillful worker , and of the embroiderer , in blue , and in purple , in scarlet , and in bleached linen ], and of the weaver , of those who do any work , and of those who work out artful work . * And Bezaleel and Aholiab shall work with everyone wise of heart to whom the LORD has given wisdom and intelligence , to know how to do every work of the service of the sanctuary , concerning all which the LORD had commanded . * And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab , and every wise-hearted man in whose heart the LORD had put wisdom , even everyone whose heart stirred him up to come , to do the work . * And they received all the offerings from Moses , the offering which the sons of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary , to make it . And they still brought to him free offerings every morning . * And all the wise men who worked all the work of the sanctuary came , every man from his work which they made . * And they spoke to Moses , saying , The people bring much more than enough [for ] the service of the work which the LORD commanded to make . * And Moses commanded , and they caused it to be known throughout the camp , saying , Let neither man nor woman make any more work for the offering of the sanctuary . And the people were kept from bringing . * For the stuff which they had was enough for all the work to make it , and too much . * And every wise-hearted one among them that worked the work of the tabernacle , made ten curtains [of ] fine twined bleached [linen ], and blue , and purple , and scarlet . He made them with cherubs of skillful work . * The length of one curtain [was ] twenty-eight cubits , and the breadth of one curtain was four cubits . The curtains were all of one size . * And he coupled the five curtains to one another , and he coupled [the other ] five curtains to one another . * And he made loops of blue on the edge of one curtain from the edge in the coupling . Likewise he made loops in the outermost side , in the coupling of the second curtain . * He made fifty loops in one curtain , and he made fifty loops in the edge of the curtain which [was ] in the coupling of the second . The loops held one to another . * And he made fifty clasps of gold , and coupled the curtains to one another with the clasps . And it became one tabernacle . * And he made curtains [of ] goats ' [hair ] for the tent over the tabernacle . He made eleven curtains . * The length of one curtain [was ] thirty cubits , and four cubits the breadth of one curtain . The eleven curtains were of one size . * And he coupled five curtains by themselves , and six curtains by themselves . * And he made fifty loops on the outermost edge of the curtain in the coupling , and he made fifty loops upon the edge of the curtains which coupled the second . * And he made fifty clasps [of ] bronze to couple the tent together , so that it might be one . * And he made a covering for the tent [of ] rams ' skins dyed red , and a covering [of ] dugong skins above . * And he made boards for the tabernacle [of ] acacia-wood , standing up . * The length of a board [was ] ten cubits , and the breadth of a board was one and a half cubits . * By two pins the one board was connected , one to another . So he made for all the boards of the tabernacle . * And he made boards for the tabernacle , twenty boards for the south side southward . * And he made forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards , two sockets under one board for its two pins , and two sockets under another board for its two pins . * And for the other side of the tabernacle , toward the north , he made twenty boards , * and their forty sockets were of silver ; two sockets under one board , and two sockets under another board . * And he made six boards for the sides of the tabernacle westward . * And he made two boards for the corners of the tabernacle in the sides . * And they were coupled beneath , and coupled together at the head of it , to one ring . So he did to both of them in both the corners . * And there were eight boards . And their sockets [were ] sixteen sockets of silver , two sockets under every board . * And he made bars of acacia-wood , five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle , * and five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle , and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle for the westward sides . * And he made 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 . * And he made a veil [of ] blue , and purple , and scarlet , and fine twined bleached [linen ]. He made it the work of an artisan , with cherubs . * And he made for it four pillars [of ] acacia . And he overlaid them [with ] gold . Their hooks [were of ] gold , and he cast four sockets of silver for them . * And he made a screen for the tabernacle door , blue , and purple , and scarlet , and fine twined bleached [linen ], of needlework ; * and the five pillars of it , and their hooks . And he overlaid their capitals and their fillets [with ] gold , but their five sockets [were of ] bronze . * And Bezaleel made the ark [of ] acacia-wood : two cubits and a half long , and a cubit and a half wide , and a cubit and a half high . * And he overlaid it [with ] pure gold inside and out , and made a crown of gold around it . * And he cast four rings of gold for it , for the corners of it , even two rings on the one side of it and two rings on the other side of it . * And he made staves [of ] acacia-wood and overlaid them [with ] gold . * And he put the staves into the rings by the sides of the ark , in order to bear the ark . * And he made the mercy-seat [of ] pure gold . Two cubits and a half long , and one cubit and a half wide . * And he made two cherubs [of ] gold on the two ends of the mercy-seat . He made them of beaten work , * one cherub here at one end , and one cherub there at the [other ] end . He made the cherubs out of the mercy-seat on the two ends of it . * And the cherubs were spreading out [their ] wings above , covering the mercy-seat [with ] their wings , their faces each toward the other . The faces of the cherubs were toward the mercy-seat . * And he made the table [of ] acacia-wood . Two cubits long , a cubit wide , and a cubit and a half high . * And he overlaid it [with ] pure gold , and made for it a crown of gold all around . * Also he made for it a border all around , of a hand 's breadth . And he made a crown of gold for the border of it all around . * And he cast for it four rings of gold , and put the rings on the four corners that [were ] in the four feet of it . * The rings were near the border , the housings for the staves to carry the table . * And he made the staves [of ] acacia-wood , and overlaid them [with ] gold , to carry the table . * And he made the vessels which were on the table , its dishes and its spoons , and its bowls , and its pitchers by which a drink offering is made , [of ] pure gold . * And he made the lampstand [of ] pure gold . He made the lampstand [of ] beaten work ; its shaft and its branch , its cups , its knobs , and its blossoms , were of the same . * And six branches went out of the sides of it ; three branches of the lampstand out of the one side of it , and three branches of the lampstand out of the other side of it . * Three almond-like cups [were ] on the one branch , a knob and a blossom ; and three almond-like cups on the one branch , a knob and a blossom . So throughout the six branches going out of the lampstand . * And on the lampstand [were ] four almond-like cups , its knobs and its blossoms . * And a knob was under two branches of the same , and a knob under two branches of the same , and a knob under two branches of the same , to the six branches going out of it . * Their knobs and their branches were of the same ; all of it was one beaten work [of ] pure gold . * And he made its seven lamps , and its snuffers , and its snuff-dishes , [of ] pure gold . * He made it of a talent [of ] pure gold , and all the vessels of it . * And he made the incense altar [of ] acacia-wood . Its length was a cubit , and its breadth a cubit , square . And its height was two cubits . Its horns were of the same . * And he overlaid it [with ] pure gold , the top of it and the sides of it all around , and the horns of it . Also he made for it a crown of gold all around . * And he made two rings of gold for it under the crown of it , by the two corners of it , upon the two sides of it , to be places for the staves to bear it with . * And he made the staves [of ] acacia-wood , and overlaid them [with ] gold . * And he made the holy anointing oil , and the pure incense of sweet spices , the work of the perfumer . * And he made the altar of burnt offering [of ] acacia-wood . Its length [was ] five cubits , and its breadth five cubits , square ; and its height three cubits . * And he made its horns on its four corners . Its horns were of it . And he overlaid it [with ] bronze . * And he made all the vessels of the altar , the pots , and the shovels , and the basins , the flesh-hooks , and the fire-pans . All the vessels of it he made [of ] bronze . * And he made a bronze grate of network for the altar , under the compass of it , beneath to the middle of it . * And he cast four rings for the four ends of the grate of bronze , places for the staves . * And he made the staves [of ] acacia-wood and overlaid them [with ] bronze . * And he put the staves into the rings on the sides of the altar , to bear it with . He made it hollow [with ] boards . * And he made the laver [of ] bronze , and its base bronze , out of the mirrors of serving women who assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation . * And he made the court . On the south side southward the hangings of the court [were of ] fine twined bleached [linen ], a hundred cubits . * Their pillars were twenty , and their bronze sockets twenty . The hooks of the pillar and their bands [were of ] silver . * And for the north side , a hundred by the cubit , their pillars twenty , and their twenty sockets bronze . The hooks of the pillars and their bands were of silver . * And for the west side [were ] hangings of fifty cubits , their pillars ten , and their sockets ten .

And all the pillars of the court were banded with silver . * And the screen for the gate of the court [was ] needlework : blue , and purple , and scarlet , and fine twined bleached [linen ]. And it was twenty cubits long , and the height and the width five cubits , to match the hangings of the court . * And the pillars [were ] four , and their bronze sockets four ; their hooks silver , and the overlaying of their capitals and their bands silver . * And all the pins of the tabernacle and of the court all around , [were of ] bronze . * This is the sum of the tabernacle , of the tabernacle of testimony , as it was counted , according to the command of Moses , [for ] the service of the Levites by the hand of Ithamar , the son of Aaron the priest . * And Bezaleel the son of Uri , the son of Hur , of the tribe of Judah , made all that the LORD commanded Moses . * And with him [was ] Aholiab the son of Ahisamach , of the tribe of Dan , an engraver , and a skillful workman , and an embroiderer in blue and in purple and in scarlet and bleached [linen ]. * All the gold that was used for the work in all the work of the sanctuary , even the gold of the offering , was twenty-nine talents and seven hundred thirty shekels , after the shekel of the sanctuary . * And the silver from those numbered of the congregation [was ] a hundred talents , and seventeen hundred seventy-five shekels , after the shekel of the sanctuary ; * a bekah for every man , half a shekel , after the shekel of the sanctuary , for everyone that went to be numbered , from twenty years old and upward , for six hundred three thousand , five hundred fifty [men ]. * And the sockets of the sanctuary were cast of the hundred talents of silver , and the sockets of the veil also , a hundred sockets of the hundred talents , a talent for a socket . * And he made hooks for the pillars out of the seventeen hundred seventy-five shekels , and overlaid their capitals and joined them . * And the bronze of the wave offering [was ] seventy talents , and twenty-four hundred shekels , * and with it he made the sockets to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation , and the bronze altar , and the bronze grate for it , and all the vessels of the altar , * and the sockets of the court all around , and the sockets of the court gate , and all the pins of the tabernacle , and all the pins of the court all around [bronze ]. * And of the blue , and purple , and scarlet , they made woven garments for ministering in the sanctuary . And they made the holy garments for Aaron , even as the LORD commanded Moses . * And he made the ephod [of ] gold , blue , and purple , and scarlet , and fine twined bleached [linen ]. * And they beat the gold into thin plates , and cut threads to work [it ] into the blue , and into the purple , and into the scarlet , and into the bleached [linen ], the work of an artisan . * They made shoulder-pieces for it , to couple [it ] together . It was coupled together by the two edges . * And its fastening band which [was ] on it , was of it , according to its work ; gold , blue , and purple , and scarlet , and fine twined bleached [linen ], even as the LORD commanded Moses . * And they made stones of onyx set [in ] plaited work of gold , engraved as signets are engraved , with the names of the sons of Israel . * And he put them on the shoulders of the ephod , stones for a memorial to the sons of Israel , even as the LORD commanded Moses . * And he made the breast-pocket a work [of ] an artisan , like the work of the ephod , of gold , blue , and purple , and scarlet , and fine twined bleached [linen ]; * it was square . They made the breast-pocket double . Its length [was ] a span , and its breadth a span , doubled . * And they set four rows of stones in it . One row was a ruby , a topaz , and a carbuncle , the first row . * And the second row : an turquoise , a sapphire , and a diamond . * And the third row : a jacinth , an agate , and an amethyst . * And the fourth row : a chrysolite , an agate , and a jasper ; set in plaited work of gold in their settings . * And the stones were according to the names of the sons of Israel , twelve , according to their names , [like ] the engravings of a signet , every one with its name according to the twelve tribes . * And they made cords of chains upon the breast-pocket , of woven work [of ] pure gold . * And they made two plaitings [of ] gold and two gold rings . And they put the two rings on the two ends of the breast-pocket . * And they put the two cords of gold in the two rings on the ends of the breast-pocket . * And the two ends of the two cords were fastened in the two plaitings . And they put them on the shoulder-pieces of the ephod , on its front . * And they made two rings of gold . And they put [them ] on the two ends of the breast-pocket , on its border , on the side of the ephod inward . * And they made two golden rings , and put them on the two sides of the ephod underneath , toward the front of it , near the other coupling of it , above to the band of the ephod . * And they bound the breast-pocket by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue , so that it might be above the band of the ephod , and so that the breast-pocket might not be loosened from the ephod , even as the LORD commanded Moses . * And he made the robe of the ephod of woven work , all of blue . * And the opening in the middle of the robe [was ] like the opening of a corselet , with a band around the opening , so that it might not tear . * And they made upon the hems of the robe pomegranates of blue , and purple , and scarlet , and twined bleached [linen ]. * And they made bells [of ] pure gold , and put the bells between the pomegranates upon the hems of the robe , all around , between the pomegranates : * a bell and a pomegranate , a bell and a pomegranate , all around the hem of the robe to minister [in ], even as the LORD commanded Moses . * And they made the tunics [of ] bleached [linen ] [of ] woven work for Aaron and for his sons . * And [they made ] a miter of bleached [linen ], and the headdress of the caps [of ] bleached [linen ], and linen breeches [of ] fine twined bleached [linen ], * and a girdle [of ] fine twined bleached [linen ], and blue , and purple , and scarlet , [of ] needlework , even as the LORD commanded Moses . * And they made the plate of the holy crown [of ] pure gold , and wrote upon it an inscription of the engravings of a signet , HOLINESS TO THE LORD . * And they tied a lace of blue to it , in order to fasten [it ] on high upon the miter , even as the LORD commanded Moses . * And all the work of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation was finished . And the sons of Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses . So they did . * And they brought the tabernacle to Moses , the tent , and all its furniture , its clasps , its boards , its bars , and its pillars , and its sockets , * and the covering of rams ' skins dyed red , and the covering of dugong skins , and the veil of the covering , * the ark of the testimony , and its staves , and the mercy-seat , * the table , [and ] all its vessels , and the showbread , * the pure lampstand , its lamps , even the lamps to be set in order , and all the vessels of it , and the oil for light , * and the golden altar , and the anointing oil , and the sweet incense , and the screen for the tabernacle door , * the bronze altar , and its grate of bronze , its staves , and all its vessels , the laver and its base , * the curtains of the court , its pillars and its sockets , and the screen for the court gate , its cords , and its pins , and all the vessels of the service of the tabernacle for the tent of the congregation , * the woven garments for ministering in the sanctuary , and the holy garments for Aaron the priest , and his sons ' garments , to minister in the priest 's office . * According to all that the LORD commanded Moses , so the sons of Israel made all the work . * And Moses looked upon all the work , and , behold , they had done it . As the LORD commanded , even so they had done it . And Moses blessed them . * And the LORD spoke to Moses , saying , * You shall set up the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation on the first day of the first month . * And you shall put the ark of the testimony in it , and you shall cover the ark with the veil . * And you shall bring the table in , and set in order its arrangement . And you shall bring the lampstand in and light the lamps of it . * And you shall set the altar of gold for the incense in front of the ark of the testimony , and put the screen of the door to the tabernacle . * And you shall set the altar of the burnt offering in front of the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation . * And you shall set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar , and shall put water in it . * And you shall set up the court all around , and place the screen at the court gate . * And you shall take the anointing oil and anoint the tabernacle , and all in it , and shall sanctify it and all the vessels of it . And it shall be holy . * And you shall anoint the altar of the burnt offering , and all its vessels , and sanctify the altar . And it shall be a most holy altar . * And you shall anoint the laver and its base , and sanctify it . * And you shall bring Aaron and his sons to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation , and wash them with water . * And you shall put the holy garments on Aaron , and anoint him and sanctify him , so that he may minister to Me in the priest 's office . * And you shall bring his sons and clothe them [with ] tunics . * And you shall anoint them , even as you anointed their father , so that they may minister to Me in the priest 's office . For their anointing shall surely be an everlasting priesthood for their generations . * And Moses did so . According to all that the LORD commanded him , so he did . * And it will be in the first month in the second year , on the first of the month , the tabernacle was reared up . * And Moses reared up the tabernacle and fastened its sockets , and set up its boards , and put in its bars , and reared up its pillars . * And he spread the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering of the tent above upon it , even as the LORD commanded Moses . * And he took and placed the Testimony into the ark , and set the staves on the ark , and put the mercy-seat on the ark from above . * And he brought the ark into the tabernacle and set up the veil of the covering , and covered the Ark of Testimony , even as the LORD commanded Moses . * And he put the table in the tent of the congregation , on the side of the tabernacle northward , outside the veil . * And he set the bread in order upon it before the LORD , even as the LORD had commanded Moses . * And he put the lampstand in the tent of the congregation across from the table , on the side of the tabernacle southward . * And he set up the lamps before the LORD , even as the LORD commanded Moses . * And he put the golden altar in the tent of the congregation in front of the veil . * And he burned sweet incense on it , even as the LORD commanded Moses . * And he set up the screen [at ] the door of the tabernacle . * And he put the altar of burnt offering [by ] the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation , and offered on it the burnt offering and the food offering , even as the LORD commanded Moses . * And he set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar , and put water there , for washing . * And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet there . * When they went into the tent of the congregation , and when they came near the altar , they washed , even as the LORD commanded Moses . * And he reared up the court all around the tabernacle and the altar , and set up the screen of the court gate . And Moses finished the work . * And the cloud covered the tabernacle of the congregation , and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle . * And Moses was not able to enter into the tabernacle of the congregation because the cloud stayed on it , and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle . * And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle , the sons of Israel journeyed on in all their journeys . * But if the cloud was not taken up , then they did not journey until the day that it was taken up . * For the cloud of the LORD [was ] upon the tabernacle by day , and fire was on it by night , in the sight of all the house of Israel , in all their journeys . * By faith , Joseph dying remembered concerning the Exodus of the sons of Israel and gave orders concerning his bones .
