Jubilee Bible 2000 JUB
New International Version NIV
1 Then wrought Bezaleel and Aholiab and every wise hearted man unto whom the LORD gave wisdom and intelligence to know how to do all the work of the service of the sanctuary, all the things that the LORD had commanded.
1
So Bezalel, Oholiab and every skilled person to whom the LORD has given skill and ability to know how to carry out all the work of constructing the sanctuary are to do the work just as the LORD has commanded.”
2 And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab and every wise hearted man in whose heart the LORD had put wisdom and every one whose heart stirred him up to come unto the work to do it;
2
Then Moses summoned Bezalel and Oholiab and every skilled person to whom the LORD had given ability and who was willing to come and do the work.
3 and they took from the presence of Moses all the offering which the sons of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, to make it <em>with</em>. And they brought yet unto him free will offerings every morning.
3
They received from Moses all the offerings the Israelites had brought to carry out the work of constructing the sanctuary. And the people continued to bring freewill offerings morning after morning.
4 So much that all the wise men that wrought all the work of the sanctuary came every man from his work which they made,
4
So all the skilled workers who were doing all the work on the sanctuary left what they were doing
5 and they spoke with Moses, saying, The people bring much more than enough for the work of the ministry which the LORD commanded to make.
5
and said to Moses, “The people are bringing more than enough for doing the work the LORD commanded to be done.”
6 And Moses commanded it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman make any more work for the offering of the sanctuary. So the people were restrained from bringing,
6
Then Moses gave an order and they sent this word throughout the camp: “No man or woman is to make anything else as an offering for the sanctuary.” And so the people were restrained from bringing more,
7 for they had abundant material for all the work; more than enough to make it <em>with</em>.
7
because what they already had was more than enough to do all the work.
8 And everyone with a wise heart among those that wrought the work made the tabernacle of ten curtains <em>of</em> fine twined linen and blue and purple and scarlet, which they made of cunning work, <em>with</em> cherubim.
8
All those who were skilled among the workers made the tabernacle with ten curtains of finely twisted linen and blue, purple and scarlet yarn, with cherubim woven into them by expert hands.
9 The length of one curtain <em>was</em> twenty-eight cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits; the curtains <em>were</em> all of one size.
9
All the curtains were the same size—twenty-eight cubits long and four cubits wide.
10 And he coupled the five curtains one unto another; and <em>the other</em> five curtains he coupled one unto another.
10
They joined five of the curtains together and did the same with the other five.
11 And he made loops of blue on the edge of one curtain in the border in the coupling; likewise he made in the border of the second curtain in the coupling.
11
Then they made loops of blue material along the edge of the end curtain in one set, and the same was done with the end curtain in the other set.
12 Fifty loops made he in one curtain, and fifty loops made he in the edge of the second curtain in the border in the coupling, the loops in front of the others.
12
They also made fifty loops on one curtain and fifty loops on the end curtain of the other set, with the loops opposite each other.
13 And he made fifty hooks of gold and coupled the curtains one unto another with the hooks, so it became one tabernacle.
13
Then they made fifty gold clasps and used them to fasten the two sets of curtains together so that the tabernacle was a unit.
14 Likewise he made curtains of goats’ <em>hair</em> for the tent over the tabernacle; he made eleven curtains.
14
They made curtains of goat hair for the tent over the tabernacle—eleven altogether.
15 The length of one curtain <em>was</em> thirty cubits, and four cubits <em>was</em> the breadth of one curtain; the eleven curtains <em>were</em> of one size.
15
All eleven curtains were the same size—thirty cubits long and four cubits wide.
16 And he coupled five curtains by themselves and six curtains by themselves.
16
They joined five of the curtains into one set and the other six into another set.
17 And he made fifty loops upon the edge of the uttermost curtain in the coupling, and he made another fifty loops upon the edge of the other curtain in the coupling.
17
Then they made fifty loops along the edge of the end curtain in one set and also along the edge of the end curtain in the other set.
18 And he also made fifty hooks <em>of</em> brass to couple the tent together, that it might be one.
18
They made fifty bronze clasps to fasten the tent together as a unit.
19 And he made a covering for the tent <em>of</em> rams’ skins dyed red, and <em>another</em> covering of badgers’ skins above <em>that</em>.
19
Then they made for the tent a covering of ram skins dyed red, and over that a covering of the other durable leather.
20 And he made the boards for the tabernacle <em>of</em> cedar wood, standing up.
20
They made upright frames of acacia wood for the tabernacle.
21 The length of each board <em>was</em> ten cubits, and the breadth one cubit and a half.
21
Each frame was ten cubits long and a cubit and a half wide,
22 Each board had two tenons, equally distant one from another; thus did he make all the boards of the tabernacle.
22
with two projections set parallel to each other. They made all the frames of the tabernacle in this way.
23 He made, therefore, the boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards for the south side towards the Negev.
23
They made twenty frames for the south side of the tabernacle
24 He also made the forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards: two sockets under one board for its two tenons and two sockets under another board for its two tenons.
24
and made forty silver bases to go under them—two bases for each frame, one under each projection.
25 And for the other side of the tabernacle, on the side of the Aquilon, {the north wind} he made twenty boards,
25
For the other side, the north side of the tabernacle, they made twenty frames
26 with their forty sockets of silver: two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.
26
and forty silver bases—two under each frame.
27 And for the westward side of the tabernacle he made six boards.
27
They made six frames for the far end, that is, the west end of the tabernacle,
28 And he made two boards for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides,
28
and two frames were made for the corners of the tabernacle at the far end.
29 which were coupled beneath and likewise coupled together above to a ring; thus he did to both of them in both the corners.
29
At these two corners the frames were double from the bottom all the way to the top and fitted into a single ring; both were made alike.
30 There were, therefore, eight boards; and their sockets <em>were</em> sixteen sockets of silver, under every board two sockets.
30
So there were eight frames and sixteen silver bases—two under each frame.
31 And he also made bars of cedar wood: five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,
31
They also made crossbars of acacia wood: five for the frames on one side of the tabernacle,
32 and five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle for the westward side.
32
five for those on the other side, and five for the frames on the west, at the far end of the tabernacle.
33 And he made the middle bar to pass through the boards from the one end to the other.
33
They made the center crossbar so that it extended from end to end at the middle of the frames.
34 And he covered the boards with gold and made their rings <em>of</em> gold for the bars to pass through and covered the bars with gold also.
34
They overlaid the frames with gold and made gold rings to hold the crossbars. They also overlaid the crossbars with gold.
35 Likewise he made the veil of blue and purple and scarlet and fine twined linen, which he made with cherubim of cunning work.
35
They made the curtain of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen, with cherubim woven into it by a skilled worker.
36 And for it he made four pillars of cedar and covered them with gold; their capitals <em>were of</em> gold; and he cast for them four sockets of silver.
36
They made four posts of acacia wood for it and overlaid them with gold. They made gold hooks for them and cast their four silver bases.
37 Likewise he made the veil for the tabernacle door <em>of</em> blue and purple and scarlet and fine twined linen, of needlework,
37
For the entrance to the tent they made a curtain of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen—the work of an embroiderer;
38 and its five pillars with their capitals; and he covered their heads and their fillets with gold; and their five sockets <em>he made</em> of brass.
38
and they made five posts with hooks for them. They overlaid the tops of the posts and their bands with gold and made their five bases of bronze.
