35:1  Then Moses assembled all the congregation of the sons of Israel, and said to them, "These are the things that the LORD has commanded {you} to do:

35:2  "For six days work may be done, but on the seventh day you shall have a holy {day,} a sabbath of complete rest to the LORD; whoever does any work on it shall be put to death.

35:3  "You shall not kindle a fire in any of your dwellings on the sabbath day."

35:4  Moses spoke to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, saying, "This is the thing which the LORD has commanded, saying,

35:5  `Take from among you a contribution to the LORD; whoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it as the LORD'S contribution: gold, silver, and bronze,

35:6  and blue, purple and scarlet {material,} fine linen, goats' {hair,}

35:7  and rams' skins dyed red, and porpoise skins, and acacia wood,

35:8  and oil for lighting, and spices for the anointing oil, and for the fragrant incense,

35:9  and onyx stones and setting stones for the ephod and for the breastpiece.

35:10  `Let every skillful man among you come, and make all that the LORD has commanded:

35:11  the tabernacle, its tent and its covering, its hooks and its boards, its bars, its pillars, and its sockets;

35:12  the ark and its poles, the mercy seat, and the curtain of the screen;

35:13  the table and its poles, and all its utensils, and the bread of the Presence;

35:14  the lampstand also for the light and its utensils and its lamps and the oil for the light;

35:15  and the altar of incense and its poles, and the anointing oil and the fragrant incense, and the screen for the doorway at the entrance of the tabernacle;

35:16  the altar of burnt offering with its bronze grating, its poles, and all its utensils, the basin and its stand;

35:17  the hangings of the court, its pillars and its sockets, and the screen for the gate of the court;

35:18  the pegs of the tabernacle and the pegs of the court and their cords;

35:19  the woven garments for ministering in the holy place, the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments of his sons, to minister as priests.'"

35:20  Then all the congregation of the sons of Israel departed from Moses' presence.

35:21  Everyone whose heart stirred him and everyone whose spirit moved him came {and} brought the LORD'S contribution for the work of the tent of meeting and for all its service and for the holy garments.

35:22  Then all whose hearts moved them, both men and women, came {and} brought brooches and earrings and signet rings and bracelets, all articles of gold; so {did} every man who presented an offering of gold to the LORD.

35:23  Every man, who had in his possession blue and purple and scarlet {material} and fine linen and goats' {hair} and rams' skins dyed red and porpoise skins, brought them.

35:24  Everyone who could make a contribution of silver and bronze brought the LORD'S contribution; and every man who had in his possession acacia wood for any work of the service brought it.

35:25  All the skilled women spun with their hands, and brought what they had spun, {in} blue and purple {and} scarlet {material} and {in} fine linen.

35:26  All the women whose heart stirred with a skill spun the goats' {hair.}

35:27  The rulers brought the onyx stones and the stones for setting for the ephod and for the breastpiece;

35:28  and the spice and the oil for the light and for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense.

35:29  The Israelites, all the men and women, whose heart moved them to bring {material} for all the work, which the LORD had commanded through Moses to be done, brought a freewill offering to the LORD.

35:30  Then Moses said to the sons of Israel, "See, the LORD has called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.

35:31  "And He has filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding and in knowledge and in all craftsmanship;

35:32  to make designs for working in gold and in silver and in bronze,

35:33  and in the cutting of stones for settings and in the carving of wood, so as to perform in every inventive work.

35:34  "He also has put in his heart to teach, both he and Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan.

35:35  "He has filled them with skill to perform every work of an engraver and of a designer and of an embroiderer, in blue and in purple {and} in scarlet {material,} and in fine linen, and of a weaver, as performers of every work and makers of designs.
