²¹ Here is a summary of materials for the Tent of Meeting that was compiled at Moses’ direction, the work of the descendants of Levi under the direction of Aaron the priest’s son Ithamar. ²² Now Uri’s son Bezalel, grandson of Hur from the tribe of Judah, made everything that the Lord had ordered Moses to build.^{[a] 23} With him was Ahisamach’s son Oholiab from the tribe of Dan, an engraver, designer, and embroiderer in blue, purple, and scarlet material, and of fine linen.

²⁴ All the gold that was used in the work, in all the work on the sanctuary, including^[b] the gold from the wave offering, totaled^[c] 29 talents,^[d] 730 shekels,^[e] according to the standard used in^[f] the sanctuary. ²⁵ The silver from those of the congregation who were recorded^[g] totaled^[h] 100 talents^[i] and 1,775 shekels, according to the standard used in^[j] the sanctuary; ²⁶ a beka a head (a beka is half a shekel, according to the standard used in^[k] the sanctuary) for everyone who went through the registration^[l] process^[m] from 20 years old and older.
