Exodus 31

1 Then the LORD said to Moses,

2 “See, I have called by name Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.

3 And I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, ability, and knowledge in all kinds of craftsmanship,

4 to design artistic works in gold, silver, and bronze,

5 to cut gemstones for settings, and to carve wood, so that he may be a master of every craft.

6 Moreover, I have selected Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, as his assistant. I have also given skill to all the craftsmen, that they may fashion all that I have commanded you:

7 the Tent of Meeting, the ark of the Testimony and the mercy seat upon it, and all the other furnishings of the tent—

8 the table with its utensils, the pure gold lampstand with all its utensils, the altar of incense,

9 the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the basin with its stand—

10 as well as the woven garments, both the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments for his sons to serve as priests,

11 in addition to the anointing oil and fragrant incense for the Holy Place. They are to make them according to all that I have commanded you.”

12 And the LORD said to Moses,

13 “Tell the Israelites, ‘Surely you must keep My Sabbaths, for this will be a sign between Me and you for the generations to come, so that you may know that I am the LORD who sanctifies you.

14 Keep the Sabbath, for it is holy to you. Anyone who profanes it must surely be put to death. Whoever does any work on that day must be cut off from among his people.

15 For six days work may be done, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of complete rest, holy to the LORD. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day must surely be put to death.

16 The Israelites must keep the Sabbath, celebrating it as a permanent covenant for the generations to come.

17 It is a sign between Me and the Israelites forever; for in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, but on the seventh day He rested and was refreshed.’”

18 When the LORD had finished speaking with Moses on Mount Sinai, He gave him the two tablets of the Testimony, tablets of stone inscribed by the finger of God.

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.

1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying:

2 Behold, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Us, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah,

3 And I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with wisdom, and understanding, and knowledge, and with all manner of work,

4 to work artificially on gold, silver, ore,

5 to cut and set stone artificially, and to timber artificially, to make all manner of work.

6 And, behold, I have given unto him Ahaliab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan; and I have put wisdom in the heart of all wise men, that they should do all that I have commanded thee:

7 The tabernacle of the congregation, the ark of the testimony, the mercy seat upon it, and all the vessels of the tabernacle,

8 The table and the vessels thereof, the fine candlestick and all the vessels thereof, the altar of incense,

9 The altar of burnt offering, and all the vessels thereof, and the censer with the foot thereof,

10 The garments of the priesthood, and the holy garments of Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister priestly,

11 The anointing oil and the incense of spices for the sanctuary. All that I have commanded thee, they shall do;

12 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying:

13 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Keep my sabbath day: for it is a sign between me and you unto your seed, that ye may know that I am the LORD which sanctifieth you.

14 Therefore keep my sabbath day: for it shall be holy unto you. He that profanes it shall be put to death: for whosoever doeth any work therein, his soul shall be cut off from among his people.

15 Six days shall a man labour: but the seventh day is the sabbath, the holy rest of the LORD. Whosoever doeth any work on the sabbath day shall surely be put to death.

16 Therefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to keep it also unto their seed for an everlasting covenant.

17 He is an everlasting sign between me and the children of Israel. For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth: but in the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.

18 And when the LORD had spoken unto Moses in mount Sinai, he gave him two tables of the testimony, which were of stone, written with the finger of God.
