Exodus

1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, say­ing, 2 See, I have called by name Beza­leel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Ju­dah: 3 And I have filled him with the spir­it of God, in wis­dom, and in un­der­stand­ing, and in knowl­edge, and in all man­ner of work­man­ship, 4 To de­vise cun­ning works, to work in gold, and in sil­ver, and in brass, 5 And in cut­ting of stones, to set them, and in carv­ing of tim­ber, to work in all man­ner of work­man­ship. 6 And I, be­hold, I have giv­en with him Aho­liab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan: and in the hearts of all that are wise heart­ed I have put wis­dom, that they may make all that I have com­mand­ed thee; 7 The taber­na­cle of the con­gre­ga­tion, and the ark of the tes­ti­mo­ny, and the mer­cy seat that is there­upon, and all the fur­ni­ture of the taber­na­cle, 8 And the table and his fur­ni­ture, and the pure can­dle­stick with all his fur­ni­ture, and the al­tar of in­cense, 9 And the al­tar of burnt of­fer­ing with all his fur­ni­ture, and the laver and his foot, 10 And the cloths of ser­vice, and the holy gar­ments for Aaron the priest, and the gar­ments of his sons, to min­is­ter in the priest's of­fice, 11 And the anoint­ing oil, and sweet in­cense for the holy place: ac­cord­ing to all that I have com­mand­ed thee shall they do. 12 And the LORD spake unto Moses, say­ing, 13 Speak thou also unto the chil­dren of Is­rael, say­ing, Ver­i­ly my sab­baths ye shall keep: for it is a sign be­tween me and you through­out your gen­er­a­tions; that ye may know that I am the LORD that doth sanc­ti­fy you. 14 Ye shall keep the sab­bath there­fore; for it is holy unto you: ev­ery one that de­fileth it shall sure­ly be put to death: for whoso­ev­er doeth any work there­in, that soul shall be cut off from among his peo­ple. 15 Six days may work be done; but in the sev­enth is the sab­bath of rest, holy to the LORD: whoso­ev­er doeth any work in the sab­bath day, he shall sure­ly be put to death. 16 Where­fore the chil­dren of Is­rael shall keep the sab­bath, to ob­serve the sab­bath through­out their gen­er­a­tions, for a per­pet­u­al covenant. 17 It is a sign be­tween me and the chil­dren of Is­rael for ev­er: for in six days the LORD made heav­en and earth, and on the sev­enth day he rest­ed, and was re­freshed. 18 And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of com­muning with him upon mount Sinai, two ta­bles of tes­ti­mo­ny, ta­bles of stone, writ­ten with the fin­ger of God.
