¹ And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

² `See, I have called by name Bezaleel, son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah,

³ and I fill him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all work,

⁴ to devise devices to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,

⁵ and in graving of stone for settings, and in graving of wood to work in all work.

⁶ `And I, lo, I have given with him Aholiab, son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, and in the heart of every wise-hearted one I have given wisdom, and they have made all that which I have commanded thee.

⁷ `The tent of meeting, and the ark of testimony, and the mercy-seat which is on it, and all the vessels of the tent,

⁸ and the table and its vessels, and the pure candlestick and all its vessels, and the altar of the perfume,

⁹ and the altar of the burnt-offering and all its vessels, and the laver and its base,

¹⁰ and the coloured garments, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, for acting as priests in;

¹¹ and the anointing oil, and the perfume of the spices for the sanctuary; according to all that I have commanded thee--they do.'

¹² And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

¹³ `And thou, speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, Only, My sabbaths ye do keep, for it is a sign between Me and you, to your generations, to know that I, Jehovah, am sanctifying you;

¹⁴ and ye have kept the sabbath, for it is holy to you, he who is polluting it is certainly put to death--for any who doeth work in it--that person hath even been cut off from the midst of his people.

¹⁵ `Six days is work done, and in the seventh day is a sabbath of holy rest to Jehovah; any who doeth work in the sabbath-day is certainly put to death,

¹⁶ and the sons of Israel have observed the sabbath; to keep the sabbath to their generations is a covenant age-during,

¹⁷ between Me and the sons of Israel it is a sign--to the age; for six days Jehovah made the heavens and the earth, and in the seventh day He hath ceased, and is refreshed.'

¹⁸ And He giveth unto Moses, when He finisheth speaking with him in mount Sinai, two tables of the testimony, tables of stone, written by the finger of God.
