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