31:1And
Jehovah spake unto
Moses, saying,
31:2See, I have called by
name Bezalel the son of
Uri, the son of
Hur, of the tribe of
Judah:
31:3and I have filled him with the
Spirit of
God, in
wisdom, and in
understanding, and in
knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,
31:4to devise skilful works, to
work in
gold, and in
silver, and in brass,
31:5and in cutting of stones for setting, and in carving of wood, to
work in all manner of workmanship.
31:6And I, behold, I have appointed with him
Oholiab, the son of
Ahisamach, of the tribe of
Dan; and in the
heart of all that are wise-hearted I have put
wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded thee:
31:7the tent of meeting, and the
ark of the testimony, and the mercy-seat that is thereupon, and all the furniture of the Tent,
31:8and the
table and its
vessels, and the
pure candlestick with all its
vessels, and the
altar of
incense,
31:9and the
altar of burnt-offering with all its
vessels, and the
laver and its base,
31:10and the finely wrought garments, and the
holy garments for
Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister in the priest's office,
31:11and the
anointing oil, and the
incense of sweet spices for the
holy place: according to all that I have commanded thee shall they do.
31:12And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying, 31:13Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily ye shall keep my sabbaths: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know that I am Jehovah who sanctifieth you. 31:14Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one that profaneth it shall surely be put to death; for whosoever doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people. 31:15Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day is a sabbath of solemn rest, holy to Jehovah: whosoever doeth any work on the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death. 31:16Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant. 31:17It is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for in six days Jehovah made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.
31:18And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of communing with him upon mount Sinai, the two tables of the testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God.
