Êxodo 36:3-7

3 Receberam de Moisés todas as ofertas que os israelitas tinham trazido para a obra de construção do santuário. E o povo continuava a trazer voluntariamente ofertas, manhã após manhã.

4 Por isso, todos os artesãos habilidosos que trabalhavam no santuário interromperam o trabalho

5 e disseram a Moisés: “O povo está trazendo mais do que o suficiente para realizar a obra que o SENHOR ordenou”.

6 Então Moisés ordenou que fosse feita esta proclamação em todo o acampamento: “Nenhum homem ou mulher deverá fazer mais nada para ser oferecido ao santuário”. Assim, o povo foi impedido de trazer mais,

7 pois o que já haviam recebido era mais que suficiente para realizar toda a obra.
