  • And spices, and oil for lights, and for ointment, and for good incense.
  • So the children of Israel brought willingly, both man and woman, to do all the work which the LORD commanded by Moses to be done.
  • And Moses said unto the children of Israel, Behold, the LORD hath called by name Bezaleel the son of Us, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah,
  • And hath filled him with the Spirit of God, that he should be wise, and understanding, and able to do all manner of work,
  • to work artificially on gold, silver, and ore,
  • to cut and set precious stone, to carpenter wood, to make all manner of artificial work.
  • And he taught him his heart, and Ahaliab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan.
  • He hath filled their hearts with wisdom to make all manner of work, to cut, to work, and to embroider with yellow silk, and scarlet, and purple, and white silk, and with weaving, to make all manner of work, and to invent workmanship.

    The pieces of the shrine are being made.
  • Then Bezaleel, and Ahaliab, and all the wise men, to whom the LORD had given wisdom and understanding to know how to do all manner of work, laboured for the service of the sanctuary, according to all that the LORD had commanded.
  • And Moses called unto Bezaleel, and unto Ahaliab, and unto all the wise men, unto whom the LORD had given wisdom in their hearts, even unto all them that offered themselves willingly, and went to work in the work.
  • And they took unto them of Moses all the offerings which the children of Israel brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, to make it. For every morning they brought their willing offerings unto him.
  • Then came all the wise men that wrought in the work of the sanctuary, every man of his work that they wrought,
  • And they said unto Moses, The people bring too much, more than is needful for the work of this service, which the LORD commanded to be done.
  • And Moses commanded that they should cry throughout the camp, saying, No man shall lift up the sanctuary any more. And the people ceased from bringing.
  • For there was enough of the thing for every work that was to be done, and yet was left.
  • So all the wise men among the workmen made the tabernacle, ten carpets of twined white silk, yellow silk, scarlet, rosy, cherubims, artificial.
  • The length of a carpet was twenty and eight cubits, and the breadth four cubits; and they were all of one measure.
  • And he fastened five curtains together, one to another.
  • And he made yellow loops in the place of every carpet, where they were joined together.
  • Fifty loops each to a carpet, that one might take hold of another.
  • And he made fifty coils of gold, and joined the rugs together with the coils, one to another, to make a tabernacle.
  • And he made eleven carpets of goats’ hair for the tabernacle, 15. Thirty cubits long and four cubits wide, all in one measure.
  • And he put five of them together in one part, and six together in the other part.
  • And he made fifty loops upon every carpet in the place, to bind them together.
  • And he made every one fifty pieces of brass, that the tabernacle might be joined together into one.
  • And he made a covering over the tabernacle of red rams’ skins, and over them a covering of badgers’ skins.
  • And made boards for the tabernacle of pine wood to stand upon, 21. Each ten cubits long, and a cubit and a half broad,
  • And on every one two tenons, to set one against another. So he made all the boards for a dwelling,
  • that the same boards were twenty about noon;
  • And he made forty silver feet under them, and under every board two feet upon the two tenons thereof.
  • And on the other side of the tabernacle, about midnight, he made twenty boards.
  • With forty silver feet, under every board two feet.
  • But at the back of the tabernacle toward the evening he made six boards, 28. and two others at the back at the two corners of the apartment, 29. That each of them should be joined together with his place board from beneath, and be joined together at the top of the head with a clamp,
  • That the boards might be eight, and sixteen silver feet, under every one two feet.
  • And he made bars of pine wood, five for the boards upon the one side of the tabernacle.
  • and five on the other side, and five behind, towards the evening.
  • And he made the bars to thrust them through the midst of the boards from end to end.
  • And he overlaid the boards with gold, and made the bars thereof of gold, and overlaid the bars with gold.
  • And he made the curtain with the cherubims upon it of yellow silk, and scarlet, and scarlet, and twined white silk, artificially.
  • And he made for them four pillars of pine wood, and overlaid them with gold, and their heads with gold, and cast four silver feet for them.
  • And made a cloth in the door of the tabernacle; of yellow silk, scarlet, and rose-red, and twined white silk embroidered,
  • And five pillars thereof with their heads, and overlaid their heads and rims with gold; and five brass feet thereon.
