1And Bezalel and Oholiab shall work, and every wise-hearted man, in whom Jehovah hath put wisdom and understanding to know how to work all the work for the service of the sanctuary, according to all that Jehovah hath commanded.
1Bezalel, Oholiab, and every skilled person whom the LORD has given the wisdom and understanding to know how to perform all the work for the sanctuary must do it exactly as the LORD commanded.
2And Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab, and every wise-hearted man, in whose heart Jehovah had put wisdom, even every one whose heart stirred him up to come unto the work to do it:
2Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab, along with every skilled person whose heart the LORD had gifted with wisdom—everyone who was eager to come and do the work.
3and they received of Moses all the offering which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, wherewith to make it. And they brought yet unto him freewill-offerings every morning.
3They received from Moses all the contributions the Israelites had brought for the construction of the sanctuary. But the people continued to bring him free-will offerings every morning.
4And all the wise men, that wrought all the work of the sanctuary, came every man from his work which they wrought;
4Eventually, all the skilled craftsmen who were working on the sanctuary left their work one by one to speak to Moses.
5and they spake unto Moses, saying, The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work which Jehovah commanded to make.
5They said, 'The people are bringing much more than what is needed for the work the LORD commanded us to do.'
6And Moses gave commandment, and they caused 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.
6So Moses gave an order and had this announcement made throughout the camp: 'No man or woman should prepare any more gifts for the sanctuary.' Thus, the people were stopped from bringing more.
7For the stuff they had was sufficient for all the work to make it, and too much.
7What they already had was enough to complete all the work, and actually, there was more than enough.
8And all the wise-hearted men among them that wrought the work made the tabernacle with ten curtains; of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, with cherubim, the work of the skilful workman, Bezalel made them.
