1And Bezaleel, and Aholiab, and every wise-hearted man, in whom YHWH has given wisdom and understanding to know to do every work of the service of the holy place, have done according to all that YHWH commanded. 2And Moses calls to Bezaleel, and to Aholiab, and to every wise-hearted man in whose heart YHWH has given wisdom, everyone whom his heart lifted up, to come near to the work to do it. 3And they take from before Moses all the raised-offering which the sons of Israel have brought in for the work of the service of the holy place to do it; and still they have brought to him a willing-offering morning by morning. 4And all the wise men, who are doing all the work of the holy place, each come from his work which they are doing, 5and speak to Moses, saying, “The people are multiplying to bring in more than sufficient for the service of the work which YHWH commanded [us] to do.” 6And Moses commands, and they cause a voice to pass over through the camp, saying, “Do not let man or woman make anymore work for the raised-offering of the holy place”; and the people are restrained from bringing, 7and the work has been sufficient for them, for all the work, to do it, and to leave. 8And all the wise-hearted ones among the doers of the work make the Dwelling Place; he has made them [with] ten curtains of twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, [with] cherubim, the work of a designer. 9The length of one curtain [is] twenty-eight by the cubit, and the breadth of one curtain [is] four by the cubit; one measure [is] for all the curtains. 10And he joins the five curtains to one another, and the [other] five curtains he has joined to one another; 11and he makes loops of blue on the edge of one curtain, at the end, in the joining; so he has made in the edge of the outmost curtain, in the joining of the second; 12he has made fifty loops in the first curtain, and he has made fifty loops in the end of the curtain which [is] in the joining of the second; the loops are taking hold on one another. 13And he makes fifty hooks of gold, and joins the curtains to one another by the hooks, and the Dwelling Place is one. 14And he makes curtains of goats’ [hair] for a tent over the Dwelling Place; eleven curtains he has made them; 15the length of one curtain [is] thirty by the cubit, and the breadth of one curtain [is] four cubits; one measure [is] for the eleven curtains; 16and he joins the five curtains apart, and the six curtains apart. 17And he makes fifty loops on the outer edge of the curtain, in the joining; and he has made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain which is joining the second; 18and he makes fifty hooks of bronze to join the tent—to be one; 19and he makes a covering for the tent of rams’ skins made red, and a covering of tachashim skins above. 20And he makes the boards for the Dwelling Place of shittim wood, standing up; 21ten cubits [is] the length of the [one] board, and a cubit and a half the breadth of the [one] board; 22two handles [are] to one board, joined to one another; so he has made for all the boards of the Dwelling Place. 23And he makes the boards for the Dwelling Place; twenty boards for the south side southward; 24and he has made forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards: two sockets under one board for its two handles, and two sockets under the other board for its two handles. 25And for the second side of the Dwelling Place, for the north side, he has made twenty boards, 26and their forty sockets of silver: two sockets under one board, and two sockets under the other board; 27and for the sides of the Dwelling Place westward, he has made six boards; 28and he has made two boards for the corners of the Dwelling Place, in the two sides; 29and they have been twins below, and together they are twins at its head, at one ring; so he has done to both of them at the two corners; 30and there have been eight boards; and their sockets of silver [are] sixteen sockets, two sockets under one board. 31And he makes bars of shittim wood: five for the boards of the first side of the Dwelling Place, 32and five bars for the boards of the second side of the Dwelling Place, and five bars for the boards of the Dwelling Place, for the sides westward; 33and he makes the middle bar to enter into the midst of the boards from end to end; 34and he has overlaid the boards with gold, and he has made their rings of gold, places for bars, and he overlays the bars with gold. 35And he makes the veil of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen; he has made it [with] cherubim—the work of a designer; 36and he makes four pillars of shittim [wood] for it, and overlays them with gold; their pegs [are] of gold; and he casts four sockets of silver for them. 37And he makes a covering for the opening of the tent, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen, the work of an embroiderer, 38also its five pillars, and their pegs; and he overlaid their tops and their fillets [with] gold, and their five sockets [are] bronze. |
