Exodus 37:18  Exodus 38:8

18 And there were six branches going out of its sides; three branches of the lampstand out of one of its sides, and three branches of the lampstand out of its other side;

19 Three cups made like almond blossoms in one branch, a calyx and a blossom bud; and three cups made like almond blossoms in the other branch, a calyx and a blossom bud – so for the six branches going out of the lampstand.

20 And on the lampstand were four cups made like almond blossoms, its calyxes and its blossom buds;

21 And a calyx under two branches of one piece with it, and a calyx under two branches of one piece with it, and a calyx under two branches of one piece with it, for the six branches going out of it.

22 Their calyxes and their branches were of one piece with it; all of it was one beaten work of pure gold.

23 And he made its seven lamps, and its tongs, and its firepans, of pure gold.

24 He made it of a talent of pure gold, and all its utensils.

25 And he made the altar of incense of acacia wood; a cubit was its length, and a cubit its width, square, and two cubits its height; its horns were of one piece with it.

26 And he overlaid it with pure gold, its top and its sides around it and its horns; and he made a rim of gold around it.

27 And he made for it two golden rings under its rim, on its two sides, on its opposite sides, as holders for poles with which to carry it.

28 And he made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold.

29 And he made the holy anointing oil and the pure fragrant incense, the work of a perfumer.

 

CHAPTER 38

1 And he made the altar of burnt offering, of acacia wood; five cubits was its length, and five cubits, its width, square; and three cubits, its height.

2 And he made its horns upon its four corners; its horns were of one piece with it, and he overlaid it with bronze.

3 And he made all the utensils of the altar: the pots and the shovels and the basins, the forks and the firepans; all its utensils he made of bronze.

4 And he made a grating of network of bronze, for the altar, under its ledge beneath, reaching halfway up.

5 And he cast four rings for the four ends of the grating of bronze, as holders for the poles.

6 And he made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze.

7 And he put the poles into the rings on the sides of the altar, with which to carry it; he made it hollow, with boards.

8 And he made the laver of bronze and its base of bronze, from the mirrors of the serving women who served at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting.

Exodus 36:35  Exodus 37:17

35 And he made the veil of blue and purple and scarlet strands and fine twined linen; he made it with cherubim, the work of a skillful workman.

36 And he made for it four pillars of acacia and overlaid them with gold; their hooks were of gold. And he cast for them four sockets of silver.

37 And he made a screen for the entrance of the tent, of blue and purple and scarlet strands and fine twined linen, the work of an embroiderer,

38 And its five pillars with their hooks. And he overlaid their capitals and their connecting rods with gold, and their five sockets were of bronze.

 

CHAPTER 37

1 Next Bezalel made the Ark of acacia wood: two and a half cubits was its length; and one and a half cubits, its width; and one and a half cubits, its height.

2 And he overlaid it with pure gold inside and outside, and made a rim of gold around it.

3 And he cast four rings of gold for it, on its four feet; and two rings were on the one side of it, and two rings on the other side of it.

4 And he made poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold.

5 And he put the poles into the rings on the sides of the Ark to carry the Ark.

6 And he made an expiation cover of pure gold: two and a half cubits was its length, and one and a half cubits, its width.

7 And he made two cherubim of gold; of beaten work he made them, at the two ends of the expiation cover,

8 One cherub at the one end and one cherub at the other end; of one piece with the expiation cover he made the cherubim at its two ends.

9 And the cherubim spread out their wings above the cover, covering the expiation cover with their wings, with their faces toward one another; the faces of the cherubim were toward the expiation cover.

10 And he made the table of acacia wood: two cubits was its length, and a cubit its width, and one and a half cubits its height.

11 And he overlaid it with pure gold and made a rim of gold around it.

12 And he made a frame of a handbreadth around it, and he made a rim of gold for its frame around it.

13 And he cast for it four rings of gold and put the rings on the four corners that were on its four feet.

14 The rings were close to the frame, holders for the poles to carry the table.

15 And he made the poles of acacia wood to carry the table and overlaid them with gold.

16 And he made the utensils which were to be upon the table: its plates and its spoons and its bowls and its pitchers with which to pour out drink offerings, of pure gold.

17 And he made the lampstand of pure gold. He made the lampstand with its base and its shaft of beaten work; its cups, its calyxes, and its blossom buds were of one piece with it.

Exodus 36:8  Exodus 36:34

8 And all the wise in heart among those who did the work made the tabernacle with ten curtains, of fine twined linen and blue and purple and scarlet strands, with cherubim, the work of a skillful workman. Bezalel made them.

9 The length of each curtain was twenty-eight cubits, and the width of each curtain, four cubits; all the curtains had the same measurement.

10 And he joined five curtains to one another; and the other five curtains he joined to one another.

11 And he made loops of blue upon the edge of the one curtain at the end in the set; likewise he made them in the edge of the outermost curtain in the second set.

12 He made fifty loops on the one curtain, and he made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that was in the second set; the loops were opposite one another.

13 And he made fifty clasps of gold, and joined the curtains to one another with the clasps; so the tabernacle became one.

14 And he made curtains of goats’ hair for a tent over the tabernacle; eleven curtains he made them.

15 The length of each curtain was thirty cubits, and the width of each curtain, four cubits; the eleven curtains had the same measurement.

16 And he joined five of the curtains by themselves, and six of the curtains by themselves.

17 And he made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that was outermost in the set, and fifty loops he made upon the edge of the curtain which was outermost in the second set.

18 And he made fifty clasps of bronze to join the tent together, that it might become one.

19 And he made a covering for the tent, of rams’ skins dyed red, and a covering of porpoise skins above it.

20 And he made the boards for the tabernacle of acacia wood, standing up.

21 Ten cubits was the length of a board, and one and a half cubits, the width of each board.

22 Each board had two tenons fitted to one another; thus he did for all the boards of the tabernacle.

23 And he made the boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards for the south side southward.

24 And he made forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards, two sockets under one board for its two tenons and two sockets under the next board for its two tenons.

25 And for the second side of the tabernacle, on the north side, he made twenty boards

26 And their forty sockets of silver, two sockets under one board and two sockets under the next board.

27 And for the rear of the tabernacle westward he made six boards.

28 And two boards he made for the corners of the tabernacle in the rear.

29 And they were double below, and at its top they were completely joined to a single ring; thus he did to both of them for the two corners.

30 And there were eight boards with their sockets of silver, sixteen sockets; two sockets under every board.

31 And he made bars of acacia wood, five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,

32 And five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle at the rear westward.

33 And he made the middle bar to pass through in the center of the boards from end to end.

34 And he overlaid the boards with gold and made their rings of gold as holders for the bars, and overlaid the bars with gold.

Exodus 35:24  Exodus 36:7

24 Everyone who offered a heave offering of silver and bronze brought the heave offering of Jehovah; and every man with whom was found acacia wood for any work of the service brought it.

25 And all the women who were wise in heart spun with their hands and brought what they had spun, the blue and the purple and the scarlet strands, and the fine linen.

26 And all the women whose heart lifted them up in wisdom spun the goats’ hair.

27 And the leaders brought the onyx stones and the stones for setting for the ephod and for the breastplate,

28 And the spices and the oil for the light and for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense.

29 The children of Israel brought a freewill offering to Jehovah; every man and woman whose heart made them willing to bring for all the work, which Jehovah had commanded through Moses to be done.

30 And Moses said to the children of Israel, See, Jehovah 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, with wisdom, with understanding, and with knowledge, and with all kinds of workmanship;

32 Even to fashion skillful designs, to work in gold and in silver and in bronze,

33 And in the cutting of stones for setting, and in the carving of wood, to work in all kinds of skillful workmanship.

34 And He has put in his heart to teach, both he and Oholiab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan.

35 He has filled them with wisdom of heart, to work all kinds of workmanship, of an engraver and of a skillful workman and of an embroiderer in blue and in purple and in scarlet strands, and in fine linen, and of the weaver, even of those who do all kinds of workmanship and of those who fashion skillful designs.

 

CHAPTER 36

1 And Bezalel and Oholiab and every man who is wise in heart in whom Jehovah has put wisdom and understanding to know how to do all the work for the service of the sanctuary shall work according to all that Jehovah has commanded.

2 And Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab and every man who was wise in heart in whose heart Jehovah had put wisdom, even everyone whose heart lifted him up to come to the work to do it.

3 And they received from Moses every heave offering which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, to make it. And they still kept bringing to him freewill offerings every morning.

4 And all the wise men who did all the work of the sanctuary came, every man from his work which he was doing;

5 And they spoke to Moses, saying, The people are bringing much more than enough for the service of the work which Jehovah commanded us to do.

6 And Moses gave commandment; and a proclamation was passed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman do any more work for the heave offering of the sanctuary. So the people were restrained from bringing.

7 For the material they had was sufficient and more than enough for all the work, to do it.

Exodus 35:1  Exodus 35:23

1 And Moses gathered all the assembly of the children of Israel and said to them, These are the words which Jehovah has commanded you to do.

2 Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day you shall have a Sabbath of complete rest, holy to Jehovah; whoever does any work on it shall be put to death.

3 You shall kindle no fire in any of your dwellings on the Sabbath day.

4 And Moses spoke to all the assembly of the children of Israel, saying, This is what Jehovah has commanded, saying,

5 Take from among yourselves a heave offering to Jehovah; whoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it, the heave offering of Jehovah: gold and silver and bronze,

6 And blue and purple and scarlet strands, and fine linen, and goats’ hair,

7 And rams’ skins dyed red, and porpoise skins, and acacia wood,

8 And oil for the light, and spices for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense,

9 And onyx stones and stones to be set for the ephod and for the breastplate.

10 And let every man who is wise in heart among you come and make all that Jehovah has commanded:

11 The tabernacle, its tent, and its covering, its clasps and its boards, its bars, its pillars, and its sockets;

12 The Ark and its poles, the expiation cover, and the veil of the screen;

13 The table and its poles and all its utensils, and the bread of the Presence;

14 And the lampstand for the light and its utensils and its lamps, and the oil for the light;

15 And the altar of incense and its poles, and the anointing oil, and the fragrant incense, and the screen for the entrance, at the entrance of the tabernacle;

16 The altar of burnt offering, with its grating of bronze, its poles, and all its utensils; the laver and its base;

17 The hangings of the court, its pillars, and its sockets, and the screen for the gate of the court;

18 The pegs of the tabernacle and the pegs of the court, and their cords;

19 The finely worked garments for ministering in the sanctuary, the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments of his sons for them to serve as priests.

20 And all the assembly of the children of Israel departed from the presence of Moses.

21 And they came, everyone whose heart lifted him up and everyone whose spirit made him willing, and brought the heave offering of Jehovah for the work of the Tent of Meeting and for all its service and for the holy garments.

22 And they came, men together with women, as many as were of a willing heart, and brought nose rings and earrings and signet rings and pendants, all kinds of articles of gold; even every man who waved a wave offering of gold to Jehovah.

23 And every man with whom was found blue and purple and scarlet strands, and fine linen, and goats’ hair, and rams’ skins dyed red, and porpoise skins, brought them.
