36 ¶ Then wrought Bezaleel and Aholiab and every wise hearted man unto whom the LORD gave wisdom and intelligence to know how to do all the work of the service of the sanctuary, all the things that the LORD had commanded.

And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab and every wise hearted man in whose heart the LORD had put wisdom and every one whose heart stirred him up to come unto the work to do it;

and they took from the presence of Moses all the offering which the sons of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, to make it with. And they brought yet unto him free will offerings every morning.

So much that all the wise men that wrought all the work of the sanctuary came every man from his work which they made,

and they spoke with Moses, saying, The people bring much more than enough for the work of the ministry which the LORD commanded to make.

And Moses commanded it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman make any more work for the offering of the sanctuary. So the people were restrained from bringing,

for they had abundant material for all the work; more than enough to make it with.

¶ And everyone with a wise heart among those that wrought the work made the tabernacle of ten curtains of fine twined linen and blue and purple and scarlet, which they made of cunning work, with cherubim.

The length of one curtain was twenty-eight cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits; the curtains were all of one size.

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

11 And he made loops of blue on the edge of one curtain in the border in the coupling; likewise he made in the border of the second curtain in the coupling.

12 Fifty loops made he in one curtain, and fifty loops made he in the edge of the second curtain in the border in the coupling, the loops in front of the others.

13 And he made fifty hooks of gold and coupled the curtains one unto another with the hooks, so it became one tabernacle.

14 ¶ Likewise he made curtains of goats’ hair for the tent over the tabernacle; he made eleven curtains.

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

16 And he coupled five curtains by themselves and six curtains by themselves.

17 And he made fifty loops upon the edge of the uttermost curtain in the coupling, and he made another fifty loops upon the edge of the other curtain in the coupling.

18 And he also made fifty hooks of brass to couple the tent together, that it might be one.

19 And he made a covering for the tent of rams’ skins dyed red, and another covering of badgers’ skins above that.

20 And he made the boards for the tabernacle of cedar wood, standing up.

21 The length of each board was ten cubits, and the breadth one cubit and a half.

22 Each board had two tenons, equally distant one from another; thus did he make all the boards of the tabernacle.

23 He made, therefore, the boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards for the south side towards the Negev.

24 He also made the 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 And for the other side of the tabernacle, on the side of the Aquilon, {the north wind} he made twenty boards,

26 with their forty sockets of silver: two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.

27 And for the westward side of the tabernacle he made six boards.

28 And he made two boards for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides,

29 which were coupled beneath and likewise coupled together above to a ring; thus he did to both of them in both the corners.

30 There were, therefore, eight boards; and their sockets were sixteen sockets of silver, under every board two sockets.

31 And he also made bars of cedar 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 westward side.

33 And he made the middle bar to pass through the boards from the one end to the other.

34 And he covered the boards with gold and made their rings of gold for the bars to pass through and covered the bars with gold also.

35 ¶ Likewise he made the veil of blue and purple and scarlet and fine twined linen, which he made with cherubim of cunning work.

36 And for it he made four pillars of cedar and covered them with gold; their capitals were of gold; and he cast for them four sockets of silver.

37 Likewise he made the veil for the tabernacle door of blue and purple and scarlet and fine twined linen, of needlework,

38 and its five pillars with their capitals; and he covered their heads and their fillets with gold; and their five sockets he made of brass.

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.

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;

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.

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

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

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.

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

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.

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.

36 Then wrought Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wise hearted man, in whom the Lord put wisdom and understanding to know how to work all manner of work for the service of the sanctuary, according to all that the Lord had commanded.

And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wise hearted man, in whose heart the Lord had put wisdom, even every one whose heart stirred him up to come unto the work to do it:

And they received of Moses all the offering, which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, to make it withal. And they brought yet unto him free offerings every morning.

And all the wise men, that wrought all the work of the sanctuary, came every man from his work which they made;

And they spake unto Moses, saying, The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work, which the Lord commanded to make.

And Moses gave commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman make any more work for the offering of the sanctuary. So the people were restrained from bringing.

For the stuff they had was sufficient for all the work to make it, and too much.

And every wise hearted man among them that wrought the work of the tabernacle made ten curtains of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet: with cherubims of cunning work made he them.

The length of one curtain was twenty and eight cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: the curtains were all of one size.

10 And he coupled the five curtains one unto another: and the other five curtains he coupled one unto another.

11 And he made loops of blue on the edge of one curtain from the selvedge in the coupling: likewise he made in the uttermost side of another curtain, in the coupling of the second.

12 Fifty loops made he in one curtain, and fifty loops made he in the edge of the curtain which was in the coupling of the second: the loops held one curtain to another.

13 And he made fifty taches of gold, and coupled the curtains one unto another with the taches: so it became one tabernacle.

14 And he made curtains of goats' hair for the tent over the tabernacle: eleven curtains he made them.

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

16 And he coupled five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves.

17 And he made fifty loops upon the uttermost edge of the curtain in the coupling, and fifty loops made he upon the edge of the curtain which coupleth the second.

18 And he made fifty taches of brass to couple the tent together, that it might be one.

19 And he made a covering for the tent of rams' skins dyed red, and a covering of badgers' skins above that.

20 And he made boards for the tabernacle of shittim wood, standing up.

21 The length of a board was ten cubits, and the breadth of a board one cubit and a half.

22 One board had two tenons, equally distant one from another: thus did he make for all the boards of the tabernacle.

23 And he made boards for the tabernacle; twenty boards for the south side southward:

24 And forty sockets of silver he made under the twenty boards; two sockets under one board for his two tenons, and two sockets under another board for his two tenons.

25 And for the other side of the tabernacle, which is toward the north corner, he made twenty boards,

26 And their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.

27 And for the sides of the tabernacle westward he made six boards.

28 And two boards made he for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides.

29 And they were coupled beneath, and coupled together at the head thereof, to one ring: thus he did to both of them in both the corners.

30 And there were eight boards; and their sockets were sixteen sockets of silver, under every board two sockets.

31 And he made bars of shittim 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 sides westward.

33 And he made the middle bar to shoot through the boards from the one end to the other.

34 And he overlaid the boards with gold, and made their rings of gold to be places for the bars, and overlaid the bars with gold.

35 And he made a vail of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen: with cherubims made he it of cunning work.

36 And he made thereunto four pillars of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold: their hooks were of gold; and he cast for them four sockets of silver.

37 And he made an hanging for the tabernacle door of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, of needlework;

38 And the five pillars of it with their hooks: and he overlaid their chapiters and their fillets with gold: but their five sockets were of brass.
