31:1  AND THE Lord said to Moses,

31:2  See, I have called by name Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.

31:3  And I have filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom {and} ability, in understanding {and} intelligence, and in knowledge, and in all kinds of craftsmanship,

31:4  To devise skillful works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in bronze,

31:5  And in cutting of stones for setting, and in carving of wood, to work in all kinds of craftsmanship.

31:6  And behold, I have appointed with him Aholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan; and to all who are wisehearted I have given wisdom {and} ability to make all that I have commanded you:

31:7  The Tent of Meeting, the ark of the Testimony, the mercy seat that is on it, all the furnishings of the tent--

31:8  The table [of the showbread] and its utensils, the pure lampstand with all its utensils, the altar of incense,

31:9  The altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, the laver and its base--

31:10  The finely worked garments, the holy garments for Aaron the [high] priest and for his sons to minister as priests,

31:11  And the anointing oil and incense of sweet spices for the Holy Place. According to all that I have commanded you shall they do.

31:12  And the Lord said to Moses,

31:13  Say to the Israelites, Truly you shall keep My Sabbaths, for it is a sign between Me and you throughout your generations, that you may know that I, the Lord, sanctify you [set you apart for Myself].

31:14  You shall keep the Sabbath therefore, for it is holy to you; everyone who profanes it shall surely be put to death; for whoever does work on the Sabbath shall be cut off from among his people.

31:15  Six days may work be done, but the seventh is the Sabbath of rest, sacred to the Lord; whoever does work on the Sabbath day shall surely be put to death.

31:16  Wherefore the Israelites shall keep the Sabbath to observe it throughout their generations, a perpetual covenant.

31:17  It is a sign between Me and the Israelites forever; for in six days the Lord made the heavens and earth, and on the seventh day He ceased and was refreshed.

31:18  And He gave to Moses, when He had ceased communing with him on Mount Sinai, the two tables of the Testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God.
