34 “And He has put in his heart the ability to teach, in him and (L)Aholiab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan. 35 He has (M)filled them with skill to do all manner of work of the engraver and the designer and the tapestry maker, in blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and fine linen, and of the weaver—those who do every work and those who design artistic works.
