Exodus 35:30-36:7
30aThen Moses said to the sons of Israel, “See, Yahweh has called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah. 31“And He has filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, in discernment, and in knowledge, and in all 1craftsmanship; 32to devise 1designs for working in gold and in silver and in 2bronze, 33and in the cutting of stones for settings and in the carving of wood, so as to do well in every work of thoughtful design. 34“He also has put in his heart to teach, both he and aOholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan. 35“aHe has filled them with 1wisdom in their heart to do every work of an engraver and of a designer and of an embroiderer, in 2blue and in purple and in scarlet material and in fine linen, and of a weaver, as those who do every work and make designs.
36“Now Bezalel and Oholiab and every person 1wise at heart, to whom Yahweh has given 2wisdom and discernment to know how to do all the work of the service of constructing the sanctuary, shall do in accordance with all that Yahweh has commanded.”
Making the Tabernacle
2Then Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab and every person 1wise at heart to whom Yahweh had given 2wisdom, aeveryone whose heart stirred him, to come to the work to do it. 3And they received from Moses the entire 1contribution which the sons of Israel had brought 2to do the work in the service of the sanctuary. And they still continued bringing to him freewill offerings every morning. 4And all the 1wise men who were doing all the work of the sanctuary came, each from 2the work which 3he was doing, 5and they said to 1Moses, “aThe people are bringing much more than enough for the service of the work which Yahweh commanded us to 2do.” 6So Moses commanded and a 1proclamation was passed throughout the camp, saying, “Let no man or woman any longer do the work for the 2contributions of the sanctuary.” Thus the people were restrained from bringing any more. 7aIndeed, the 1material they had was sufficient and more than enough for all the work, to do it.
