 Ye shall akindle• no fire throughout your habitations upon the sabbath day.

 ¶ And Moses spake unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying, This is the thing which the LORD acommanded•, saying,

 Take ye from among you an offering unto the LORD: whosoever is of a awilling• heart, let him bring it, an offering of the LORD; gold, and silver, and brass,

 And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats’ hair,

 And rams’ skins dyed red, and badgers’ skins, and ashittim• wood,

 And oil for the light, and spices for anointing oil, and for the sweet incense,

 And onyx stones, and stones to be set for the aephod•, and for the breastplate.

 And aevery• wise hearted among you shall come, and make all that the LORD hath commanded;

 The aark•, and the staves thereof, with the mercy seat, and the vail of the covering,

 And the aincense• altar, and his staves, and the banointing• oil, and the sweet incense, and the changing• for the door at the entering in of the tabernacle,

 The aaltar• of burnt offering, with his brasen grate, his staves, and all his vessels, the laver and bhis• foot,

 ¶ And all the congregation of the children of Israel departed from the presence of Moses.

 And they came, every one whose aheart• stirred him up, and every one whom his spirit made bwilling, and they brought the LORD’s coffering dto• the work of the etabernacle• of the congregation, and for all his service, and for the holy garments.

 And they came, both men and women, as many as were willing hearted, and brought abracelets•, and earrings, and rings, and tablets, all bjewels• of gold: and every man that offered offered an coffering• of gold unto the LORD.

 And every man, with whom was found blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine alinen•, and goats’ hair, and red skins of rams, and badgers’ skins, brought them.

 Every one that did offer an offering of silver and brass brought the LORD’s aoffering•: and every man, with whom was found shittim wood for any work of the service, brought it.

 And all the women that were awise• hearted did spin with their hands, and brought that which they had spun, both of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, and of fine linen.

 And the arulers• brought onyx stones, and stones to be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate;

 The children of Israel brought a awilling• offering unto the LORD, every man and woman, whose heart made them willing to bring for all manner of work, which the LORD had commanded to be made by the hand of Moses.

 ¶ And Moses said unto the children of Israel, See, the LORD hath called by name aBezaleel• the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah;

 And he hath filled him with the spirit of God, in awisdom, in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of bworkmanship;

 And to devise acurious• works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,

 And in the cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of wood, to amake• any manner of cunning work.

 And he hath put in his heart that he may ateach•, both he, and Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan.

 Them hath he filled with awisdom• of heart, to bwork all manner of work, of the engraver, and of the ccunning• 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 work, and of those that devise cunning work.
