Laws for the Sabbath
1 Moses called together the people of Israel and told them that the Lord had said:
2 You have six days in which to do your work. But the seventh day must be dedicated to me, your Lord, as a day of rest. Whoever works on the Sabbath will be put to death. 3 Don't even build a cooking fire at home on the Sabbath.
Offerings for the Sacred Tent
(Exodus 25.1-9Exodus 35.10-19)4 Moses told the people of Israel that the Lord had said:
5 I will welcome an offering from anyone who wants to give something. You may bring gold, silver, or bronze; 6 blue, purple, or red wool; fine linen; goat hair; 7 tanned ram skin or fine leather; acacia wood; 8 olive oil for the lamp; sweet-smelling spices for the oil of dedication and for the incense; or 9 onyx stones or other gems for the sacred vest and breastpiece.
10 If you have any skills, you should use them to help make what I have commanded: 11 the sacred tent with its covering and hooks, its framework and crossbars, and its post and stands; 12 the sacred chest with its carrying poles, its place of mercy, and the curtain in front of it; 13 the table with its carrying poles and all that goes on it, including the sacred bread; 14 the lamp with its equipment and oil; 15 the incense altar with its carrying poles and sweet-smelling incense; the ordination oil; the curtain for the entrance to the sacred tent; 16 the altar for sacrifices with its bronze grating, its carrying poles, and its equipment; the large bronze bowl with its stand; 17 the curtains with the posts and stands that go around the courtyard and the curtain at the entrance; 18 the pegs and ropes for the tent and the courtyard; 19 and the finely woven priestly clothes for Aaron and his sons.
Gifts for the Lord
20 Moses finished speaking, and everyone left. 21 Then those who wanted to bring gifts to the Lord, brought them to be used for the sacred tent, the worship services, and the priestly clothes. 22 Men and women came willingly and gave all kinds of gold jewelry such as pins, earrings, rings, and necklaces. 23 Everyone brought their blue, purple, and red wool, their fine linen, and their cloth made of goat hair, as well as their ram skins dyed red and their fine leather. 24 Anyone who had silver or bronze or acacia wood brought it as a gift to the Lord.
25 The women who were good at weaving cloth brought the blue, purple, and red wool and the fine linen they had made. 26 And the women who knew how to make cloth from goat hair were glad to do so.
27 The leaders brought different kinds of jewels to be sewn on the special clothes and the breastpiece for the high priest. 28 They also brought sweet-smelling spices to be mixed with the incense and olive oil that were for the lamps and for ordaining the priests. 29 Moses had told the people what the Lord wanted them to do, and many of them decided to bring their gifts.
Bezalel and Oholiab
(Exodus 31.1-11)30 Moses said to the people of Israel:
The Lord has chosen Bezalel of the Judah tribe. 31-33 Not only has the Lord filled him with his Spirit, but he has given him wisdom and made him a skilled craftsman who can create objects of art with gold, silver, bronze, precious stones, and wood. 34 The Lord is urging him and Oholiab from the tribe of Dan to teach others. 35 And he has given them all kinds of artistic skills, including the ability to design and embroider with blue, purple, and red wool and to weave fine linen.
قوانين السبت
1 وجمَعَ موسى بَني إِسرائيلَ كُلَّهم وقالَ لهُم: «هذِهِ هيَ الوصايا الّتي أمرَ الرّبُّ أن تعمَلوا بِها: 2 في سِتَّةِ أيّامٍ تعمَلونَ، واليومُ السَّابعُ يكونُ لكُم سبْتا مُقَدَّسا وعُطلَةً لي أنا الرّبّ. كُلُّ مَنْ عمِلَ فيه عمَلا يُقتَلُ. 3 لا تُوقِدوا نارا في جميعِ مَساكِنِكُم في يومِ السَّبْتِ».

20 فخَرجَ جماعَةُ بَني إِسرائيلَ مِنْ عِندِ موسى، 21 ثُمَّ جاءَ كُلُّ مَنْ حرَّكَهُ قلبُهُ وسَخَتْ نفْسُهُ بِتقدِمَةٍ للرّبِّ مِنْ أجلِ بِناءِ خَيمَةِ الإجتماعِ. وجاؤوا بِكُلِّ ما يَلزَمُ لِلعِبادَةِ فيها ولِلثِّيابِ المُقَدَّسَةِ. 22 وجاءَ الرِّجالُ والنِّساءُ مِمَّنْ سَخَتْ نُفوسُهُم بِأساوِرَ وحَلَقٍ وخَواتِمَ وقلائِدَ وما إلى ذلِكَ مِنْ أشياءَ ذهَبـيةٍ وقدَّمُوها لِلرّبِّ. 23 وكُلُّ مَنْ كانَ عِندَه نَسيجٌ بَنَفْسَجيٌّ وأُرجُوانيٌّ وقِرمِزيُّ اللَّونِ جاءَ بهِ، وجاءَ بِشَعْرِ مَعَزٍ وجُلودِ كِباشٍ مَصبوغَةٍ بِالحُمرَةِ وجُلودٍ بَنَفْسَجيَّةٍ. 24 وكُلُّ مَنْ كانَ عِندَه تقدِمَةٌ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ ونُحاسٍ جاءَ بِها. وكُلُّ مَنْ كانَ عِندَه خشَبُ سَنْطٍ يَلزَمُ لِلعمَلِ جاءَ بِهِ. 25 وكُلُّ امرأةٍ ماهرَةٍ غزَلَت بِيَدِها وجاءَت بِــغَزْلٍ مِنَ النَّسيجِ البَنَفْسَجيِّ والأُرجُوانيِّ والقِرمِزيِّ اللَّونِ. 26 وكُلُّ امرأةٍ حرَّكَها قلبُها إلى العمَلِ بِمَهارَةٍ غزَلَت شَعْرَ مَعَزٍ. 27 والأعيانُ جاؤوا بِـحجَارةِ العَقيقِ وحجارَةِ التَّرصيعِ لِلأَفودِ وللصُّدْرَةِ، 28 وبالطِّيْبِ والزَّيتِ للمَنارَةِ والمَسْحِ والبَخورِ العَطِرِ. 29 كُلُّ رَجُلٍ أوِ امرأةٍ مِنْ بَني إِسرائيلَ سَخَتْ نفْسُهُ جاءَ بشيءٍ لِلعمَلِ الّذي أمرَ الرّبُّ بأنْ يعمَلَهُ الشَّعبُ على يَدِ موسى.
30 وقالَ موسى لِبَني إِسرائيلَ: «الرّبُّ اختارَ بَصَلْئيلَ بنَ أُوري بنَ حُورٍ مِنْ سِبْطِ يَهوذا 31 ومَلأهُ مِنْ روحِهِ الإلهيِّ حِكمَةً وفَهْما ومعرِفَةً بِـجميعِ الصَّنائِعِ 32 لابتداعِ أشكالٍ يصنَعُها مِنَ الذَّهَبِ والفِضَّةِ والنُّحاسِ، 33 ولِنَحْتِ جواهِرَ لِلتَّرصيعِ، ولِنَشرِ الخشَبِ، ولِكُلِّ صَنعَةٍ مِنَ الصَّنائِعِ. 34 وألهَمَهُ الرّبُّ أنْ يُعَلِّمَ، هوَ وأهوليآبُ بنُ أخيساماكَ مِنْ سِبْطِ دانَ، الآخَرينَ حِرْفَتَها، 35 ومَلأَ قلبَيهِما حِكمَةً لِـيَصنَعا كُلَّ صَنعَةٍ يُتقِنُها النَّجَّارُ والحائِكُ الماهِرُ والمُطرِّزُ في النَّسيجِ البَنَفْسَجيِّ والأُرجُوانيِّ والقِرمِزيِّ اللَّونِ، وغيرِ ذلِكَ مِمَّا يُتقِنُه الحائِكُ وكُلُّ صاحِبِ صَنعَةٍ وفَنٍّ مِنَ الفُنونِ».
