34 And Hashem said unto Moshe, Chisel thee two Luchot Avanim like the first ones; and I will write upon these Luchot the divarim that were on the Luchot HaRishonim, which thou broke.

² And be ready in the boker, and come up in the boker unto Mt.Sinai, and present thyself there to Me on the rosh HaHar.

³ And no ish shall come up with thee, neither let any ish be seen throughout kol HaHar; neither let the tzon nor herd graze in front of that Har.

⁴ And he chiseled two Luchot Avanim like the first ones; and Moshe rose up early in the boker, and went up unto Mt.Sinai, as Hashem had commanded him, and took in his yad the two Luchot Avanim.

⁵ And Hashem descended in the anan, and stood with him there, and called out the Shem of Hashem.

⁶ And Hashem passed by before him, and proclaimed, Hashem, Hashem El Rachum v’Channun, slow to anger, and abundant in chesed and emes,

⁷ Preserving chesed for thousands, forgiving avon and pesha and chatta’ah, and by no means leaving the guilty unpunished; visiting the avon of the avot upon the banim, and upon the bnei banim, unto the third and to the fourth generation.

⁸ And Moshe made haste, and bowed his head toward the ground, and worshiped.

⁹ And he said, If now I have found chen in Thy sight, Adonoi, let Adonoi, now, go among us; although it is an Am Kesheh Oref; and forgive avoneinu and chattateinu, and take us for Thine nachalah.

¹⁰ And He said, Hinei, I cut a brit; before all thy people I will do nifla’ot, such as have not been done in kol ha’aretz, nor in kol HaGoyim; and kol HaAm among which thou art shall see the ma’aseh Hashem; for it is a norah that I will do with thee.

¹¹ Be thou shomer over that which I command thee this day; hinei, I drive out before thee the Emori, and the Kena’ani, and the Chitti, and the Perizzi, and the Chivi, and the Yevusi.

¹² Be shomer over thyself, lest thou make a brit with the inhabitants of HaAretz whither thou goest, lest it be for a mokesh (snare) in the midst of thee;

¹³ But ye shall destroy their mizbechot, break their matzebot, and cut down their asherah (sacred trees, poles);

¹⁴ For thou shalt worship no el acher; for Hashem, Whose Shem is Jealous, is El Kanah;

¹⁵ Lest thou make a brit with the inhabitants of HaAretz, and they go awhoring after eloheihem, and do sacrifice unto eloheihem, and one invite thee, and thou eat of his zevach (sacrifice, i.e., participate in his pagan worship);

¹⁶ And thou take of their banot unto thy banim, and their banot go a-whoring after their elohim, and make thy banim go a-whoring after their elohim.

¹⁷ Thou shalt make thee no elohei massekhah.

¹⁸ The Chag Hamatzot shalt thou be shomer over. Shivat yamim thou shalt eat matzot, as I commanded thee, in the mo’ed of the month Aviv; for in the month Aviv thou camest out from Mitzrayim.

¹⁹ All that openeth the rechem (womb) is Mine; and every firstling among thy cattle, whether ox or seh, that is zachar.

²⁰ But the firstling of a donkey thou shalt redeem with a seh; and if thou redeem him not, then shalt thou break his neck. Kol bechor of thy banim thou shalt redeem. And none shall appear before Me empty.

²¹ Sheshet yamim thou shalt work, but on the yom hashevi’i thou shalt rest; in plowing and in harvest thou shalt rest.

²² And thou shalt observe Chag Shavu’os [Ac chp 2], with the firstfruits the ketzir chittim (wheat harvest), and the Chag HaAsif (Festival of Ingathering, Harvesttime [Yn chp 7]) shall be at the tekufat hashanah (changing, turning of the year).

²³ Shalosh in the year shall all your men children appear before HaAdon Hashem Elohei Yisroel.

²⁴ For I will drive out the Goyim before thee, and enlarge thy borders; neither shall any man covet thy land, when thou shalt go up to appear before Hashem Eloheicha shalosh in the shanah.

²⁵ Thou shalt not offer the dahm of My zevach with chametz; neither shall the zevach of the Chag HaPesach be left overnight unto the boker.

²⁶ The reshit bikkurim of thy land thou shalt bring unto the Beis Hashem Eloheicha. Thou shalt not cook a kid in cholov immo.

²⁷ And Hashem said unto Moshe, Write thou these devarim; for according to these devarim I have cut a brit with thee and with Yisroel.

²⁸ And he was there with Hashem arba’im yom and arba’im lailah; he did neither eat lechem, nor drink mayim. And he wrote upon the Luchot the Divrei HaBrit (Words of the Covenant), the Aseres Hadevarim (Ten Commandments).

²⁹ And it came to pass, when Moshe came down from Mt. Sinai with the two Luchot HaEdut in the yad Moshe, when he came down from HaHar, that Moshe had no da’as that the ohr (skin) of his face had become radiant when he had spoken with Him.

³⁰ And when Aharon and kol Bnei Yisroel saw Moshe, hinei, the ohr (skin) of his face was radiant; and they were afraid to come near him.

³¹ And Moshe called unto them; and Aharon and kol HaNesi’im of the Edah returned unto him; and Moshe spoke with them.

³² And afterward kol Bnei Yisroel came near; and he gave them in commandment all that Hashem had spoken with him in Mt Sinai.

³³ When Moshe had finished speaking with them, he put a masveh (veil, mask) on his face.

³⁴ But when Moshe went in before Hashem to speak with Him, he took the masveh off, until he came out. And he came out, and spoke unto the Bnei Yisroel that which he was commanded.

³⁵ And the Bnei Yisroel saw the face of Moshe, that the ohr of the face of Moshe was radiant; and Moshe put the masveh upon his face again, until he went in to speak with Him.

[VAYYAKHEL]

35 And Moshe assembled kol Adat Bnei Yisroel, and said unto them, These are the Devarim which Hashem hath commanded, that ye should do them.

² Sheshet yamim shall work be done, but on the Yom HaShevi’i shall be to you [plural] Kodesh Shabbos Shabbaton to Hashem; whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to death.

³ Ye shall kindle no eish throughout your habitations upon Yom HaShabbos.

⁴ And Moshe spoke unto kol Adat Bnei Yisroel, saying, This is the thing which Hashem commanded, saying,

⁵ Take ye from among you a terumah (offering) unto Hashem; all of nediv lev of him (i.e., urged by his heart), let him bring it, a terumat Hashem, zahav, and kesef, and nechoshet,

⁶ And turquoise, and purple, and scarlet wool, and fine linen, and goat hair,

⁷ And red-dyed ram skins, and tachash skins, and acacia wood,

⁸ And shemen for the light, and spices for shemen hamishchah, and for the aromatic ketoret,

⁹ And shoham stones, and gemstones to be set for the Ephod, and for the Choshen.

¹⁰ And kol chacham lev among you shall come, and make all that Hashem hath commanded:

¹¹ The Mishkan, its Ohel, and its Mikhseh, its hooks, and its kerashim (planks), its crossbars, its ammudim, and its sockets,

¹² The Aron, and the carrying poles thereof, with the Kapporet, and the Parochet HaMasach,

¹³ The Shulchan, and its carrying poles, and all its utensils, and the Lechem HaPanim,

¹⁴ The Menorat HaMaohr, and its utensils, and its nerot (lamps), with the Shemen HaMaohr,

¹⁵ And the Mizbe’ach HaKetoret, and its carrying poles, and the Shemen HaMishchah, and the ketoret spices, and the masach hapetach at the petach of the Mishkan,

¹⁶ The Mizbe’ach HaOlah, with its mikhbar hanechoshet, its carrying poles, and all its utensils, the Kiyor, and its Stand,

¹⁷ The curtains of the khatzer, its ammudim, and its sockets, and the masach Sha’ar HaKhatzer,

¹⁸ The tent pegs of the Mishkan, and the tent pegs of the khatzer, and their cords,

¹⁹ The Bigdei HaSerad leSharet baKodesh (to do service in HaKodesh), the Bigdei HaKodesh for Aharon the kohen, and the garments of his banim, to minister in the kohen’s office.

²⁰ And all the Adat Bnei Yisroel departed from the presence of Moshe.

²¹ And they came, every one whose lev moved him, and every one of nedevah ruach of him, and they brought terumat Hashem to the work of the Ohel Mo’ed, and for kol avodat of it, and for the Bigdei HaKodesh.

²² And they came, both anashim and nashim, as many as were nediv lev, and brought bracelets, and face-adornment rings, and rings, and body ornaments, all jewelry of zahav; and every ish that offered offered a tenufat zahav unto Hashem.

²³ And kol ish, with whom was found turquoise, and purple, and scarlet wool, and fine linen, and goat hair, and dyed red rams skin, and tachash skins, brought them.

²⁴ Every one that did offer a terumat kesef and nechoshet brought the terumat Hashem; and found acacia wood for any melachet haAvodah, brought it.

²⁵ And every isha that was chachmat lev spun with her hands, and brought the spun yarn, both of turquoise, and of purple, and of scarlet, and of fine linen.

²⁶ And all the nashim whose lev stirred them up in chochmah spun goat hair.

²⁷ And the nesi’im brought shoham stones, and gemstones to be set, for the Ephod, and for the Choshen;

²⁸ And spice, and shemen for the light, and for the shemen hamishchah, and for the ketoret spices.

²⁹ The Bnei Yisroel brought a nedavah unto Hashem, kol ish and isha, with nadav lev of them brought for kol hamelachah, which Hashem had commanded to be done through Moshe.

³⁰ And Moshe said unto the Bnei Yisroel, See, Hashem hath called by shem Bezalel ben Uri, ben Chur, of the tribe of Yehudah;

³¹ And He hath filled him with the Ruach Elohim [Ac 2:4], in chochmah, in understanding, and in da’as, and in all manner of workmanship;

³² And to make machashavot (artistic works), to work in zahav, and in kesef, and in nechoshet,

³³ And in the cutting of gems, to set them, and in wood carving, to make every melachat machashavet (work of art).

³⁴ And He hath given him the ability to teach, both he, and Oholiav ben Achisamach, of the tribe of Dan.

³⁵ Them hath He filled with chochmat lev, to do all manner of artistic work, of the carver, and of the weaver of artistic design work, and of the embroiderer, in turquoise, and in purple, in scarlet wool, and in fine linen, and of the weaver, even of them that do artistic work, and of those that make artistic designs.

36 Then Bezalel and Oholiav, and kol ish chacham lev, in whom Hashem gave chochmah and tevunah to have da’as to do all manner of work for the Avodas HaKodesh, according to all that Hashem had commanded.

² And Moshe called Bezalel and Oholiav, and kol ish chochmah lev, in whose lev Hashem had given chochmah, even every one whose lev stirred him up to come unto the work to do it;

³ And they received of Moshe kol haterumah, which the Bnei Yisroel had brought for the work of the Avodas HaKodesh, to make it withal. And they brought yet unto him nedavah every boker.

⁴ And all the chachamim, that wrought all the work of HaKodesh, came every man from his work which they were doing;

⁵ And they spoke unto Moshe, saying, HaAm bring much more than enough for the Avodah of the work, which Hashem commanded to do.

⁶ And Moshe gave commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the machaneh, saying, Let neither ish nor isha make any more work for the terumat HaKodesh. So HaAm were restrained from bringing.

⁷ For the work had been sufficient for all the work to do it v’hoter.

⁸ And kol chacham lev among them that wrought the work of the Mishkan made ten curtains of fine linen, twisted with turquoise, and purple, and scarlet wool; with keruvim in a woven artistic design made he [Bezalel] them.

⁹ The length of each curtain was twenty and eight cubits, and the width of each curtain four cubits; the curtains were all of the one size.

¹⁰ And he joined five curtains one unto another; and the other five curtains he joined one unto another.

¹¹ And he made loops of turquoise wool on the edge of one curtain at the end of the first set; likewise he made them along the edge of the end curtains of the second set.

¹² Fifty loops made he in one curtain, and fifty loops made he in the end curtain in the second set; the loops were to be opposite one another.

¹³ And he made fifty hooks of zahav, and joined the curtains one unto another with the hooks; so it became Mishkan Echad.

¹⁴ And he made curtains of goat hair for the Ohel over the Mishkan; eleven curtains he made them.

¹⁵ The length of one curtain was thirty cubits, and four cubits was the width of one curtain; the eleven curtains were of the one size.

¹⁶ And he joined five curtains into a set, and six curtains into a set.

¹⁷ And he made fifty loops upon the uttermost edge of the curtain at the end of the set, and fifty loops made he upon the edge of the curtain of the other set.

¹⁸ And he made fifty hooks of nechoshet to attach the Ohel together, that it might be echad (one).

¹⁹ And he made a Mikhseh (Cover) for the Ohel of dyed red ram skin, and a tachash hide Mikhseh above that.

²⁰ And he made kerashim (planks) for the Mishkan of acacia wood, standing erect.

²¹ The length of a keresh (plank) was ten cubits, and the width of a keresh one cubit and a half.

²² One keresh had two yadot (projections, tenons), equally distant one from another; thus did he make for all the kerashim of the Mishkan.

²³ And he made kerashim (frames) for the Mishkan; twenty kerashim for the negev (south) side southward;

²⁴ And arba’im sockets of kesef he made under the twenty kerashim; two sockets under one keresh for its two tenons, and two sockets under another keresh for its two tenons.

²⁵ And for the other side of the Mishkan, which is toward the north, he made twenty kerashim,

²⁶ And their arba’im sockets of kesef; two sockets under one keresh, and two sockets under another keresh.

²⁷ And for the sides of the Mishkan westward he made six kerashim.

²⁸ And two kerashim made he for the corners of the Mishkan in the back.

²⁹ And they were doubled at the bottom, and joined together; at the top thereof, there was one ring; thus he did to both of them in both the corners.

³⁰ And there were eight kerashim; and their sockets were sixteen sockets of kesef, under every keresh two sockets.

³¹ And he made crossbars of acacia wood; five for the kerashim of the one side of the Mishkan,

³² And five crossbars for the kerashim of the other side of the Mishkan, and five crossbars for the kerashim of the Mishkan for the sides westward.

³³ And he made the middle crossbar to extend within the kerashim from the one end to the other.

³⁴ And he overlaid the kerashim with zahav, and made their rings of zahav to be housing for the crossbars, and overlaid the crossbars with zahav.

³⁵ And he made a Parochet [see Mk 15:38] of turquoise, and purple, and scarlet wool, and twisted fine linen; with keruvim made he it of artistic embroidery.

³⁶ And he made thereunto four ammudim of acacia wood, and overlaid them with zahav; their hooks were of zahav; and he cast for them four sockets of kesef.

³⁷ And he made a Masach for the petach of the Ohel of turquoise, and purple, and scarlet wool, and twisted fine linen, the work of artistic embroidery;

³⁸ And the five ammudim of it with their hooks; and he overlaid their tops and their bands with zahav; but their five sockets were of nechoshet.
