Exodus 35 : 1 (HCSB)
Moses assembled the entire Israelite community and said to them, "These are the things that the LORD has commanded you to do:
Exodus 35 : 2 (HCSB)
For six days work is to be done, but on the seventh day you are to have a holy day, a Sabbath of complete rest to the LORD. Anyone who does work on it must be executed.
Exodus 35 : 3 (HCSB)
Do not light a fire in any of your homes on the Sabbath day."
Exodus 35 : 4 (HCSB)
Then Moses said to the entire Israelite community, "This is what the LORD has commanded:
Exodus 35 : 5 (HCSB)
Take up an offering for the LORD among you. Let everyone whose heart is willing bring this as the LORD's offering: gold, silver, and bronze;
Exodus 35 : 6 (HCSB)
blue, purple, and scarlet yarn; fine linen and goat hair;
Exodus 35 : 7 (HCSB)
ram skins dyed red and manatee skins; acacia wood;
Exodus 35 : 8 (HCSB)
oil for the light; spices for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense;
Exodus 35 : 9 (HCSB)
and onyx with gemstones to mount on the ephod and breastpiece.
Exodus 35 : 10 (HCSB)
"Let all the skilled craftsmen among you come and make everything that the LORD has commanded:
Exodus 35 : 11 (HCSB)
the tabernacle-- its tent and covering, its clasps and planks, its crossbars, its posts and bases;
Exodus 35 : 12 (HCSB)
the ark with its poles, the mercy seat, and the veil for the screen;
Exodus 35 : 13 (HCSB)
the table with its poles, all its utensils, and the bread of the Presence;
Exodus 35 : 14 (HCSB)
the lampstand for light with its utensils and lamps as well as the oil for the light;
Exodus 35 : 15 (HCSB)
the altar of incense with its poles; the anointing oil and the fragrant incense; the entryway screen for the entrance to the tabernacle;
Exodus 35 : 16 (HCSB)
the altar of burnt offering with its bronze grate, its poles, and all its utensils; the basin with its stand;
Exodus 35 : 17 (HCSB)
the hangings of the courtyard, its posts and bases, and the screen for the gate of the courtyard;
Exodus 35 : 18 (HCSB)
the tent pegs for the tabernacle and the tent pegs for the courtyard, along with their ropes;
Exodus 35 : 19 (HCSB)
and the specially woven garments for ministering in the sanctuary-- the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments for his sons to serve as priests."
Exodus 35 : 20 (HCSB)
Then the entire Israelite community left Moses' presence.
Exodus 35 : 21 (HCSB)
Everyone whose heart was moved and whose spirit prompted him came and brought an offering to the LORD to construct the tent of meeting for every use, and *to make the holy garments.
Exodus 35 : 22 (HCSB)
Both men and women came; all who had willing hearts brought brooches, earrings, rings, necklaces, and all kinds of gold jewelry-- everyone who waved a presentation offering of gold to the LORD.
Exodus 35 : 23 (HCSB)
Everyone who had in his possession blue, purple, or scarlet yarn, fine linen or goat hair, ram skins dyed red or manatee skins, brought *them .
Exodus 35 : 24 (HCSB)
Everyone who offered a contribution of silver or bronze brought it to the LORD. Everyone who possessed acacia wood useful for any task in the work brought *it .
Exodus 35 : 25 (HCSB)
Every skilled woman spun *yarn with her hands and brought it: blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and fine linen.
Exodus 35 : 26 (HCSB)
And all the women whose hearts were moved spun the goat hair by virtue of *their skill.
Exodus 35 : 27 (HCSB)
The leaders brought onyx and gemstones to mount on the ephod and breastpiece,
Exodus 35 : 28 (HCSB)
as well as the spice and oil for the light, for the anointing oil, and for the fragrant incense.
Exodus 35 : 29 (HCSB)
So the Israelites brought a freewill offering to the LORD, all the men and women whose hearts prompted them to bring *something for all the work that the LORD, through Moses, had commanded to be done.
Exodus 35 : 30 (HCSB)
Moses then said to the Israelites: "Look, the LORD has appointed by name Bezalel son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.
Exodus 35 : 31 (HCSB)
He has filled him with God's Spirit, with wisdom, understanding, and ability in every kind of craft
Exodus 35 : 32 (HCSB)
to design artistic works in gold, silver, and bronze,
Exodus 35 : 33 (HCSB)
to cut gemstones for mounting, and to carve wood for work in every kind of artistic craft.
Exodus 35 : 34 (HCSB)
He has also given both him and Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, *the ability to teach others .
Exodus 35 : 35 (HCSB)
He has filled them with skill to do all the work of a gem cutter; a designer; an embroiderer in blue, purple, and scarlet yarn and fine linen; and a weaver. They can do every kind of craft and design artistic designs.
