Llamamiento de Bezaleel y de Aholiab

31 (A)Y el Señor habló a Moisés, diciendo: Mira, he llamado por nombre a Bezaleel, hijo de Uri, hijo de Hur(B), de la tribu de Judá. Y lo he llenado del Espíritu de Dios en sabiduría, en inteligencia, en conocimiento y en toda clase de arte(C), para elaborar[a] diseños, para trabajar en oro, en plata y en bronce[b], y en el labrado de piedras para engaste, y en el tallado de madera; a fin de que trabaje en toda clase de labor. Mira, yo mismo he nombrado[c] con él a Aholiab, hijo de Ahisamac, de la tribu de Dan(D); y en el corazón de todos los que son hábiles[d] he puesto habilidad[e] a fin de que hagan todo lo que te he mandado: la tienda de reunión(E), el arca del testimonio(F), el propiciatorio(G) sobre ella y todo el mobiliario del tabernáculo; también la mesa y sus utensilios[f], el candelabro de oro puro(H) con todos sus utensilios[g](I) y el altar del incienso(J); el altar del holocausto(K) también con todos sus utensilios[h] y la pila con su base(L); 10 asimismo las vestiduras tejidas[i], las vestiduras sagradas para el sacerdote Aarón(M) y las vestiduras de sus hijos, para ministrar como sacerdotes; 11 también el aceite de la unción, y el incienso aromático para el lugar santo(N). Los harán conforme a todo lo que te he mandado.

El día de reposo

12 Y habló el Señor a Moisés, diciendo: 13 Habla, pues, tú a los hijos de Israel, diciendo: «De cierto guardaréis mis días de reposo(O), porque esto es una señal entre yo y vosotros por todas vuestras generaciones, a fin de que sepáis que yo soy el Señor que os santifico(P). 14 Por tanto, habéis de guardar el día de reposo porque es santo para vosotros. Todo el que lo profane morirá irremisiblemente; porque cualquiera que haga obra alguna en él(Q), esa persona será cortada de entre su pueblo[j]. 15 Durante seis días se trabajará, pero el séptimo día será día de completo reposo(R), santo al Señor. Cualquiera que haga obra alguna en el día de reposo morirá(S) irremisiblemente(T). 16 Los hijos de Israel guardarán, pues, el día de reposo, celebrándolo[k] por todas sus generaciones como pacto perpetuo». 17 Es una señal entre yo y los hijos de Israel para siempre(U); pues en seis días el Señor hizo los cielos y la tierra, y en el séptimo día cesó de trabajar y reposó(V).

Las dos tablas del testimonio

18 Y cuando terminó de hablar con Moisés sobre el monte Sinaí, le dio las dos tablas del testimonio, tablas de piedra, escritas por el dedo de Dios(W).

Oholiab and Bezalel

31 The Lord said to Moses, “See, I have called by name (A)Bezalel the son of Uri, son of (B)Hur, of the tribe of Judah, and I have (C)filled him with the Spirit of God, with ability and intelligence, with knowledge and all craftsmanship, to devise artistic designs, to work in gold, silver, and bronze, in cutting stones for setting, and in carving wood, to work in every craft. And behold, I have appointed with him (D)Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan. And I have given to all able men (E)ability, that they may make all that I have commanded you: (F)the tent of meeting, and (G)the ark of the testimony, and (H)the mercy seat that is on it, and all the furnishings of the tent, (I)the table and its utensils, and (J)the pure lampstand with all its utensils, and (K)the altar of incense, and (L)the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and (M)the basin and its stand, 10 and (N)the finely worked garments,[a] the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments of his sons, for their service as priests, 11 and (O)the anointing oil and the fragrant (P)incense for the Holy Place. According to all that I have commanded you, they shall do.”

The Sabbath

12 And the Lord said to Moses, 13 “You are to speak to the people of Israel and say, ‘Above all you shall keep my Sabbaths, for this is a sign between me and you throughout your generations, that you may know that I, the Lord, sanctify you. 14 You shall keep the Sabbath, because it is holy for you. Everyone who profanes it shall be put to death. (Q)Whoever does any work on it, that soul shall be cut off from among his people. 15 (R)Six days shall work be done, but (S)the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest, holy to the Lord. (T)Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day shall be put to death. 16 Therefore the people of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, observing the Sabbath throughout their generations, as a covenant forever. 17 (U)It is a sign forever between me and the people of Israel that (V)in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, and (W)on the seventh day he rested and was refreshed.’”

18 And he gave to Moses, when he had finished speaking with him on Mount Sinai, the (X)two tablets of the testimony, tablets of stone, written with (Y)the finger of God.

  1. Exodus 31:10 Or garments for worship

31 Adonai said to Moshe, “I have singled out B’tzal’el the son of Uri the son of Hur, of the tribe of Y’hudah. I have filled him with the Spirit of God — with wisdom, understanding and knowledge concerning every kind of artisanry. He is a master of design in gold, silver, bronze, cutting precious stones to be set, woodcarving and every other craft.

“I have also appointed as his assistant Oholi’av the son of Achisamakh, of the tribe of Dan. Moreover, I have endowed all the craftsmen with the wisdom to make everything I have ordered you — the tent of meeting, the ark for the testimony, the ark-cover above it, all the furnishings of the tent, the table and its utensils, the pure menorah and all its utensils, the incense altar, the altar for burnt offerings and all its utensils, the basin and its base, 10 the garments for officiating, the holy garments for Aharon the cohen and the garments for his sons, so that they can serve in the office of cohen, 11 the anointing oil and the incense of aromatic spices for the Holy Place: they are to make everything just as I have ordered you.”

12 Adonai said to Moshe, 13 “Tell the people of Isra’el, ‘You are to observe my Shabbats; for this is a sign between me and you through all your generations; so that you will know that I am Adonai, who sets you apart for me. 14 Therefore you are to keep my Shabbat, because it is set apart for you. Everyone who treats it as ordinary must be put to death; for whoever does any work on it is to be cut off from his people. 15 On six days work will get done; but the seventh day is Shabbat, for complete rest, set apart for Adonai. Whoever does any work on the day of Shabbat must be put to death. 16 The people of Isra’el are to keep the Shabbat, to observe Shabbat through all their generations as a perpetual covenant. 17 It is a sign between me and the people of Isra’el forever; for in six days Adonai made heaven and earth, but on the seventh day he stopped working and rested.’”

(ii) 18 When he had finished speaking with Moshe on Mount Sinai, Adonai gave him the two tablets of the testimony, tablets of stone inscribed by the finger of God.
