出埃及記 36
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
36 摩西說：「比撒列、亞何利亞伯以及所有蒙耶和華賜智慧聰明、有技能、懂得如何建造聖所的人，都要按照耶和華的吩咐去做。」
2 於是，摩西召來比撒列、亞何利亞伯和所有蒙耶和華賜智慧、有技能、願意參與建造的人。 3 他們從摩西那裡領取了以色列百姓奉獻出來建造聖所的一切禮物。每天早上，百姓仍然甘心樂意地來奉獻禮物， 4 以致所有建造聖所的能工巧匠都放下自己的工作， 5 前來對摩西說：「百姓的奉獻太多了，我們建造耶和華吩咐的聖所用不了。」
6 於是，摩西傳令全營：「大家不用再為聖所奉獻禮物了。」百姓這才停止奉獻。 7 因為所獻的材料已經足夠建造聖所，而且綽綽有餘。
8 工人中的能工巧匠用十幅幔子做成了聖幕，幔子用細麻線和藍色、紫色、朱紅色的線織成，上面精工繡製了基路伯天使。 9 每幅幔子的尺寸都一樣，長十二米、寬兩米。 10 又把每五幅幔子連在一起，共連成兩幅大幔子。 11 然後在每幅大幔子邊緣釘上了藍色的扣環， 12 每幅各釘上五十個扣環，都是兩兩相對。 13 又做了五十個金鉤，把兩幅大幔子連在一起，成為聖幕。
14 比撒列用山羊毛織成十一幅幔子，做聖幕的罩棚， 15 每幅幔子的尺寸都一樣，長十三米、寬兩米。 16 然後把五幅連成一大幅，餘下的六幅又連成一大幅。 17 又在這兩幅大幔子邊緣各釘上五十個對稱的扣環， 18 再用五十個銅鉤，把兩幅大幔子連在一起，成為一個罩棚， 19 並在罩棚上面蓋一層染成紅色的公羊皮，再蓋一層海狗皮做頂蓋。
20 他用皂莢木做支撐聖幕的木板， 21 每塊木板長四米，寬六十六釐米， 22 上面都有兩個接榫，用來把木板連接在一起。聖幕的所有木板都這樣做。 23 聖幕的南面共有二十塊木板， 24 在這些木板下面又造了四十個帶凹槽的銀底座，每塊木板下面有兩個，套在木板的兩個接榫上。 25 聖幕北面也有二十塊木板， 26 木板下面同樣有四十個帶凹槽的銀底座，每塊木板下面有兩個銀底座。 27 聖幕的後面，就是西面，有六塊木板， 28 聖幕的兩個拐角各有兩塊木板， 29 木板的下端連於底座，頂端用一個環固定。兩個拐角都要這樣做。 30 這樣後面共有八塊木板，每塊木板下面各有兩個銀底座，一共是十六個銀底座。
31-32 他用皂莢木做橫閂，聖幕左右兩邊和後面的牆板上各有五根橫閂， 33 攔腰固定牆板的那根橫閂從這端貫穿到那端。 34 所有的木板和橫閂都包上金，並在木板上造金環，用來穿橫閂。
35 他用細麻線和藍色、紫色、朱紅色的線織成一幅幔子，精工繡上基路伯天使， 36 把這幅幔子掛在四根用皂莢木造的柱子上，柱子外面包上金，加上金鉤，四根柱子下面有四個銀底座。 37 他又用細麻線和藍色、紫色、朱紅色的線繡製聖幕的門簾， 38 用皂莢木做五根掛門簾的柱子，上面有金鉤，柱頂和橫杆包上金。柱子的五個底座是銅造的。
Exodus 36
New Catholic Bible
Chapter 36
1 “Bezalel, Oholiab, and all the skilled craftsmen whom the Lord has gifted with wisdom and intelligence to know how to do any work in the construction of the sanctuary are to do everything just as the Lord has commanded.”
Magnificence of the Gifts. 2 Moses summoned Bezalel, Oholiab, and all the skilled craftsmen in whose hearts the Lord had placed wisdom, everyone whose heart moved him to come to do the work. 3 They received from Moses all the offerings that the children of Israel had brought for the construction of the sanctuary. But every morning they continued to bring more offerings. 4 All the craftsmen who were building the sanctuary left the work they were doing 5 and came to Moses and said, “The people are bringing more than is needed for the work that the Lord has commanded.”
6 Moses, therefore, commanded and had proclaimed in the camp, “Let neither man nor woman bring anything more for the construction of the sanctuary.” He thus stopped the people from bringing more offerings, 7 for what the people had already given was sufficient, and indeed even more than enough for the work.
The Curtains. 8 All the craftsmen among them made the tabernacle with its ten curtains of twisted linen, blue, purple, and scarlet cloth, and cherubim skillfully crafted. 9 Each curtain was twenty-eight cubits long and four cubits wide. All the curtains were the same size. 10 Five of the curtains were joined to one another, and the other five curtains were joined to one another. 11 Loops of blue cloth were made on the outside edge of the first set, and likewise on the outside edge of the second set. 12 Fifty loops were made in the first set and fifty loops in the edge of the second set. The loops were symmetrical. 13 Then fifty gold clasps were made and attached the sets of curtains to each other to form the tabernacle.
14 Curtains of goat hair were made to build a tent over the tabernacle—eleven altogether. 15 The curtains were thirty cubits long and four cubits wide; all eleven curtains were the same size. 16 Five of the curtains were joined on one side and six curtains on the other side. 17 Fifty loops were made in the outside edge of the first set, and fifty loops in the edge of the second set. 18 Fifty bronze clasps were made to join the tent together and make it a single structure. 19 Then a covering was made for the tent of rams’ skins dyed red, and over it a covering of sheep skin.
20 The Boards. Upright frames were made of acacia wood for the tent. 21 Each board was ten cubits long and one and a half cubits wide. 22 Each board had two joints to fit them together. This is how all the boards of the tabernacle were made. 23 Thus twenty boards were made for the south side of the tabernacle 24 and forty silver bases under the twenty boards, two bases for each of the two joints on each board. 25 Twenty boards were made for the other side of the tabernacle, the north side, 26 along with their forty bases of silver, two bases under one board and two bases under the next board. 27 For the rear of the tabernacle facing toward the west six boards were made. 28 Two boards formed the corner of the tabernacle in the rear. 29 They were doubled together below and joined together above into one ring. The two of them formed the two corners. 30 There were thus eight boards with their silver bases, sixteen bases, two bases under one board and two bases under the next board.
31 Also made were bars out of acacia wood: five bars for the boards of one side of the tabernacle 32 and five boards for the other side of the tabernacle and five bars for the boards of the rear, toward the west. 33 The middle bar was made to pass half way up the boards, running from end to end. 34 The boards were covered with gold, and rings were made in which the bars were inserted out of gold; the bars were also covered in gold.
35 The Inner Veil and the Entry Curtain. The veil was made of blue and purple and scarlet cloth and fine twisted linen. Cherubim were made in the cloth, the work of skillful craftsmen. 36 Four columns were made for it out of acacia wood and covered in gold. The hooks were also made of gold and their four bases were made of silver.
37 A screen was made for the door to the tent out of blue and purple and scarlet cloth and fine twisted linen, covered with embroidery. 38 Five columns were made for the screen with their hooks. The columns and their hooks were covered in gold and their five bases were made out of bronze.
Exodus 36
World English Bible
36 “Bezalel and Oholiab shall work with every wise-hearted man, in whom Yahweh has put wisdom and understanding to know how to do all the work for the service of the sanctuary, according to all that Yahweh has commanded.”
2 Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab, and every wise-hearted man, in whose heart Yahweh had put wisdom, even everyone whose heart stirred him up to come to the work to do it. 3 They received from Moses all the offering which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, with which to make it. They kept bringing free will offerings to him every morning. 4 All the wise men, who performed all the work of the sanctuary, each came from his work which he did. 5 They spoke to Moses, saying, “The people have brought much more than enough for the service of the work which Yahweh commanded to make.”
6 Moses gave a commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, “Let neither man nor woman make anything else for the offering for the sanctuary.” So the people were restrained from bringing. 7 For the stuff they had was sufficient to do all the work, and too much.
8 All the wise-hearted men among those who did the work made the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twined linen, blue, purple, and scarlet. They made them with cherubim, the work of a skillful workman. 9 The length of each curtain was twenty-eight cubits,[a] and the width of each curtain four cubits. All the curtains had one measure. 10 He coupled five curtains to one another, and the other five curtains he coupled to one another. 11 He made loops of blue on the edge of the one curtain from the edge in the coupling. Likewise he made in the edge of the curtain that was outermost in the second coupling. 12 He made fifty loops in the one curtain, and he made fifty loops in the edge of the curtain that was in the second coupling. The loops were opposite to one another. 13 He made fifty clasps of gold, and coupled the curtains to one another with the clasps: so the tabernacle was a unit.
14 He made curtains of goats’ hair for a covering over the tabernacle. He made them eleven curtains. 15 The length of each curtain was thirty cubits, and four cubits the width of each curtain. The eleven curtains had one measure. 16 He coupled five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves. 17 He made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that was outermost in the coupling, and he made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain which was outermost in the second coupling. 18 He made fifty clasps of bronze to couple the tent together, that it might be a unit. 19 He made a covering for the tent of rams’ skins dyed red, and a covering of sea cow hides above.
20 He made the boards for the tabernacle of acacia wood, standing up. 21 Ten cubits was the length of a board, and a cubit and a half the width of each board. 22 Each board had two tenons, joined to one another. He made all the boards of the tabernacle this way. 23 He made the boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards for the south side southward. 24 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. 25 For the second side of the tabernacle, on the north side, he made twenty boards 26 and their forty sockets of silver: two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board. 27 For the far part of the tabernacle westward he made six boards. 28 He made two boards for the corners of the tabernacle in the far part. 29 They were double beneath, and in the same way they were all the way to its top to one ring. He did this to both of them in the two corners. 30 There were eight boards and their sockets of silver, sixteen sockets—under every board two sockets.
31 He made bars of acacia wood: five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle, 32 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. 33 He made the middle bar to pass through in the middle of the boards from the one end to the other. 34 He overlaid the boards with gold, and made their rings of gold as places for the bars, and overlaid the bars with gold.
35 He made the veil of blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen, with cherubim. He made it the work of a skillful workman. 36 He made four pillars of acacia for it, and overlaid them with gold. Their hooks were of gold. He cast four sockets of silver for them. 37 He made a screen for the door of the tent, of blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen, the work of an embroiderer; 38 and the five pillars of it with their hooks. He overlaid their capitals and their fillets with gold, and their five sockets were of bronze.
