Chapter 36
And Moses said unto the children of Israel, See, Jehovah hath called by
name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah; and he
hath filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding, and in
knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship; and to devise skilful works, to
work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in cutting of stones for
setting, and in carving of wood, to work in all manner of skilful workmanship.
And he hath put in his heart that he may teach, both he, and Oholiab, the son
of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan. Them hath he filled with wisdom of heart,
to work all manner of workmanship, of the ^5 engraver, and of the skilful
workman, and of the embroiderer, in blue, and in purple, in scarlet, and in
fine linen, and of the weaver, even of them that do any workmanship, and of
those that devise skilful works. And Bezalel and Oholiab shall work, and
every wise-hearted man, in whom Jehovah hath put wisdom and understanding to
know how to work all the work for the service of the sanctuary, according to
all that Jehovah hath commanded.
[Footnote 5: Or, craftsman]
And Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab, and every wise-hearted man, in
whose heart Jehovah had put wisdom, even every one whose heart stirred him up
to come unto the work to do it: and they received of Moses all the offering
which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the
sanctuary, wherewith to make it. And they brought yet unto him freewill
offerings every morning. And all the wise men, that wrought all the work of
the sanctuary, came every man from his work which they wrought; and they spake
unto Moses, saying, The people bring much more than enough for the service of
the work which Jehovah commanded to make. And Moses gave commandment, and
they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man
nor woman make any more work for the offering of the sanctuary. So the people
were restrained from bringing. For the stuff they had was sufficient for all
the work to make it, and too much.
And all the wise-hearted men among them that wrought the work made the
tabernacle with ten curtains; of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and
scarlet, with cherubim, the work of the skilful workman, Bezalel made them.
The length of each curtain was eight and twenty cubits, and the breadth of
each curtain four cubits: all the curtains had one measure. And he coupled
five curtains one to another: and the other five curtains he coupled one to
another. And he made loops of blue upon the edge of the one curtain ^1 from
the selvedge in the coupling: likewise he made in the edge of the curtain that
was outmost in the second ^2 coupling. Fifty loops made he in the one
curtain, and fifty loops made he in the edge of the curtain that was in the
second ^2 coupling: the loops were opposite one to another. And he made fifty
clasps of gold, and coupled the curtains one to another with the clasps: so
the tabernacle was one.
[Footnote 1: Or, that was outmost in the first set]
[Footnote 2: Or, set]
And he made curtains of goats' hair for a tent over the tabernacle:
eleven curtains he made them. The length of each curtain was thirty cubits,
and four cubits the breadth of each curtain: the eleven curtains had one
measure. And he coupled five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by
themselves. And he made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that was
outmost in the ^3 coupling, and fifty loops made he upon the edge of the
curtain which was outmost in the second ^2 coupling. And he made fifty clasps
of brass to couple the tent together, that it might beoone. And he made a
covering for the tent of rams' skins dyed red, and a covering of ^4 sealskins
above.
[Footnote 3: Or, first set]
[Footnote 2: Or, set]
[Footnote 4: Or, porpoise-skins]
And he made the boards for the tabernacle, of acacia wood, standing up.
Ten cubits was the length of a board, and a cubit and a half the breadth of
each board. Each board had two tenons, ^5 joined one to another: thus did he
make for all the boards of the tabernacle. And he made the boards for the
tabernacle: twenty boards for the south side southward; and he made forty
sockets of silver under the twenty boards; two sockets under one board for its
two tenons, and two sockets under another board for its two tenons. And for
the second side of the tabernacle, on the north side, he made twenty boards,
and their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under one board, and two
sockets under another board. And for the hinder part of the tabernacle
westward he made six boards. And two boards made he for the corners of the
tabernacle in the hinder part. And they were double beneath; and in like
madner they were entire unto the top thereof unto ^6fone ring: thus he did to
both of them in the two corners. And there were eight boards, and their
sockets of silver, sixteen sockets; under every board two sockets.
[Footnote 5: Or, mortised]
[Footnote 6: Or, the first]
And he made bars of acacia wood; five for the boards of the one side of
the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the other side of the
tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle for the hinder part
westward. And he made the middle bar to pass through in the midst of the
boards from the one end to the other. And he overlaid the boards with gold,
and made their rings of gold for places for the bars, and overlaid the bars
with gold.
And he made the veil of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined
linen: with cherubim, the work of the skilful workman, made he it. And he
made thereunto four pillars of acacia, and overlaid them with gold: their
hooks were of gold; and he cast for them four sockets of silver. And he made
a screen for the door of the Tent, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine
twined linen, the work of the embroiderer: and the five pillars of it with
their hooks: and he overlaid their capitals and their fillets with gold; and
their five sockets were of brass.
