Exodus 25:1-9

The Lord said to Moses, “Tell the Israelites to bring me gifts. Receive for me the gifts each man wants to give. These are the gifts that you should receive from them: gold, silver, bronze, blue, purple and red thread, and fine linen. Receive cloth made of goat hair. Receive the male sheep skins that are dyed red. Receive fine leather, acacia wood and olive oil to burn in the lamps. And receive spices for sweet-smelling incense and the special olive oil poured on a person’s head to make him a priest. Also accept onyx stones and other jewels to be put on the holy vest and the chest covering. “The people must build a holy place for me. Then I can live among them. Build this Holy Tent and everything in it by the plan I will show you.
