Offerings for the Tabernacle
1Then Moses assembled all the congregation of Bnei-Yisrael and said to them, “These are the words which Adonai has commanded you to do.
2Work is to be done for six days, but the seventh day is a holy day for you, a Shabbat of complete rest to Adonai. Whoever does any work then will die.
3Do not kindle a fire in any of your dwellings on Yom Shabbat.”
4Moses also said to all the congregation of Bnei-Yisrael, “This is the word which Adonai commanded saying:
5Take from among you an offering for Adonai. Whoever has a willing heart, let him bring Adonai’s offering: gold, silver and bronze;
6blue, purple and scarlet cloth; fine linen and goat hair;
7ram skins dyed red, sealskins and acacia wood;
8oil for the light, spices for the anointing oil and for the sweet incense;
9onyx stones, and setting stones for the ephod and for the breastplate.
10“Let every wise-hearted man among you come and make everything that Adonai has commanded, including
11the Tabernacle, its tent and its covering, its clasps and its boards, its crossbars, its pillars and its bases;
12the Ark and the poles, the atonement cover and the curtain screen;
13the table and its poles with all of its utensils, along with the bread of the Presence;
14also the menorah for light with its utensils, its lamps and the oil for the light;
15the altar of incense and its poles, the anointing oil, the sweet incense, and the screen for the entrance of the Tabernacle;
16the altar of burnt offering with its grating of bronze, its poles and all its utensils, the basin and its stand;
17the hangings of the courtyard, the pillars and their bases, and the curtain for the gate of the courtyard;
18the pegs of the Tabernacle and of the courtyard, along with their cords;
19the woven garments for ministering in the holy place, the holy garments for Aaron the kohen and for his sons, to minister as kohanim.”
20Then all the congregation of Bnei-Yisrael departed from before Moses.
21Everyone whose heart stirred him and everyone whose spirit was willing came and brought Adonai’s offering for the work of the Tent of Meeting and for all its service as well as for the holy garments.
22So they came, both men and women, everyone whose heart compelled him, and brought nose rings, earrings, signet rings, bracelets, and all kinds of golden jewels—everyone who brought a wave offering of gold to Adonai.
23Everyone who had blue, purple, scarlet, fine linen, goat hair, ram skins dyed red or sealskins brought them.
24Everyone who could make a contribution of silver or bronze brought Adonai’s offering, and every man who had acacia wood of any use for service brought it.
25Also all the women who were wise-hearted spun with their hands, and brought what they had woven—the blue, purple, scarlet and fine linen.
26All the women whose heart stirred them up with wisdom spun the goat hair.
27Also the leaders brought onyx stones and setting stones for the ephod and for the breastplate,
28along with the spice, the oil for the light and for anointing and for the sweet incense.
29Every man and woman whose heart made them willing gave toward all the work that Adonai had commanded to be done by Moses’ hand. So Bnei-Yisrael brought it as a freewill offering to Adonai.
30Then Moses said to Bnei-Yisrael, “See, Adonai has called by name Bezalel son of Uri son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.
31He has filled him with the Ruach of God, with wisdom, understanding and knowledge, in all manner of craftsmanship,
32to make ingenious designs, to work in gold, silver and bronze,
33as well as cutting gemstones for setting, wood carving, to make all kinds of skillful craftsmanship.
34He has also placed in his heart the ability to teach—both he and Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan.
35He has filled them with wisdom of heart to forge all the works of an engraver, an artisan, and an embroiderer in blue, purple, scarlet and in fine linen, as well as weaving—they can perform every craft and ingenious designs.

1Moses gathered the whole community of Israel together. He said to them, “Here are the things the Lord has commanded you to do. 2You must do your work in six days. But the seventh day will be your holy day. It will be a day of sabbath rest to honor the Lord. You must rest on it. Anyone who does any work on it must be put to death. 3Do not even light a fire in any of your homes on the Sabbath day.”

They were also for the sacred clothes and for any other purpose at the tent. 22Every man and woman who wanted to give came. They brought gold jewelry of all kinds.

Bezalel and Oholiab
30Then Moses spoke to the people of Israel. He said, “The Lord has chosen Bezalel, the son of Uri. Uri is the son of Hur. Bezalel is from the tribe of Judah. 31The Lord has filled him with the Spirit of God. He has filled him with wisdom, with understanding, with knowledge and with all kinds of skill. 32Bezalel can make beautiful patterns in gold, silver and bronze. 33He can cut and set stones. He can work with wood. In fact, he can work in all kinds of arts and crafts. 34And the Lord has given both him and Oholiab the ability to teach others. Oholiab, the son of Ahisamak, is from the tribe of Dan. 35The Lord has filled Bezalel and Oholiab with skill to do all kinds of work. They can carve things and make patterns. They can sew skillfully with blue, purple and bright red yarn and on fine linen. They use thread to make beautiful cloth. Both of them have the skill to work in all kinds of crafts.
