Exodus 36 — Side by side (WEB, ASV, BBE, DRA)

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.

1So let Bezalel and Oholiab get to work, with every wise-hearted man to whom the Lord has given wisdom and knowledge, to do whatever is necessary for the ordering of the holy place, as the Lord has given orders.

1Beseleel therefore, and Ooliab, and every wise man, to whom the Lord gave wisdom and understanding, to know how to work artificially, made the things that are necessary for the uses of the sanctuary, and which 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:

2Then Moses sent for Bezalel and Oholiab, and for all the wise-hearted men to whom the Lord had given wisdom, even everyone who was moved by the impulse of his heart to come and take part in the work:

2And when Moses had called them, and every skilful man, to whom the Lord had given wisdom, and such as of their own accord had offered themselves to the making of 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.

3And they took from Moses all the offerings which the children of Israel had given for the building of the holy place. And still they went on giving him more free offerings every morning.

3He delivered all the offerings of the children of Israel unto them. And while they were earnest about the work, the people daily in the morning offered their vows.

4And all the wise men, that wrought all the work of the sanctuary, came every man from his work which they wrought;

4Then the wise men, who were doing all the work of the holy place, came from their work;

4Whereupon the workmen being constrained to come,

5and they spake unto Moses, saying, The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work which Jehovah commanded to make.

5And said to Moses, The people are giving much more than is needed for the work which the Lord has given us orders to do.

5Said to Moses: The people offereth more than is necessary.

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 made an order and had it given out through all the tents, saying, Let no man or woman make any more offerings for the holy place. So the people were kept from giving more.

6Moses therefore commanded proclamation to be made by the crier's voice: Let neither man nor woman offer any more for the work of the sanctuary. And so they ceased from offering gifts,

7For the stuff they had was sufficient for all the work to make it, and too much.

7For the material they had was enough and more than enough for all the work which had to be done.

7Because the things that were offered did suffice, and were too much.

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.

8Then all the expert workmen among them made the House with its ten curtains; of the best linen, blue and purple and red, they made them, with winged ones worked by expert designers.

8And all the men that were wise of heart, to accomplish the work of the tabernacle, made ten curtains of twisted fine linen, and violet, and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, with varied work, and the art of embroidering:

9The length of each curtain was eight and twenty cubits, and the breadth of each curtain four cubits: all the curtains had one measure.

9Every curtain was twenty-eight cubits long and four cubits wide, all of the same measure.

9The length of one curtain was twenty-eight cubits, and the breadth four: all the curtains were of the same size.

10And he coupled five curtains one to another: and the other five curtains he coupled one to another.

10And five curtains were joined together, and the other five curtains were joined together.

10And he joined five curtains, one to another, and the other five he coupled one to another.

11And he made loops of blue upon the edge of the one curtain from the selvedge in the coupling: likewise he made in the edge of the curtain that was outmost in the second coupling.

11And they put twists of blue cord on the edge of the outside curtain of the first group, and in the same way on the outside curtain of the second group.

11He made also loops of violet in the edge of one curtain on both sides, and in the edge of the other curtain in like manner,

12Fifty loops made he in the one curtain, and fifty loops made he in the edge of the curtain that was in the second coupling: the loops were opposite one to another.

12Fifty twists on the one curtain and fifty on the edge of the curtain of the other group; the twists being opposite to one another.

12That the loops might meet one against another, and might be joined each with the other.

13And he made fifty clasps of gold, and coupled the curtains one to another with the clasps: so the tabernacle was one.

13And they made fifty hooks of gold, joining the curtains one to another with the hooks; and so the House was made.

13Whereupon also he cast fifty rings of gold, that might catch the loops of the curtains, and they might be made one tabernacle.

14And he made curtains of goats’hairfor a tent over the tabernacle: eleven curtains he made them.

14And they made curtains of goats' hair for the tent; eleven curtains were made.

14He made also eleven curtains of goats' hair, to cover the roof of the tabernacle:

15The length of each curtain was thirty cubits, and four cubits the breadth of each curtain: the eleven curtains had one measure.

15Every curtain was thirty cubits long and four cubits wide, all of the same measure.

15One curtain was thirty cubits long, and four cubits broad: all the curtains were of one measure.

16And he coupled five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves.

16Five curtains were joined together to make one group, and six curtains were joined together to make the other group.

16Five of which he joined apart, and the other six apart.

17And he made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that was outmost in the coupling, and fifty loops made he upon the edge of the curtain which was outmost in the second coupling.

17And they put fifty twists of cord on the edge of the outside curtain of the first group, and fifty twists on the edge of the outside curtain of the second group,

17And he made fifty loops in the edge of one curtain, and fifty in the edge of another curtain, that they might be joined one to another.

18And he made fifty clasps of brass to couple the tent together, that it might be one.

18And fifty hooks of brass for joining them together to make the tent.

18And fifty buckles of brass wherewith the roof might be knit together, that of all the curtains there might be made one covering.

19And he made a covering for the tent of rams’ skins dyed red, and a covering of sealskins above.

19And they made a cover of sheepskins coloured red, to go over the tent, and a cover of leather over that.

19He made also a cover for the tabernacle of rams' skins dyed red; and another cover over that of violet skins.

20And he made the boards for the tabernacle, of acacia wood, standing up.

20And for the uprights of the House they made boards of hard wood.

20He made also the boards of the tabernacle of setim wood standing.

21Ten cubits was the length of a board, and a cubit and a half the breadth of each board.

21The boards were ten cubits long and one cubit and a half wide.

21The length of one board was ten cubits; and the breadth was one cubit and a half.

22Each board had two tenons, joined one to another: thus did he make for all the boards of the tabernacle.

22Every board had two tongues fixed into it; all the boards were made in this way.

22There were two mortises throughout every board, that one might be joined to the other. And in this manner he made for all the boards of the tabernacle.

23And he made the boards for the tabernacle: twenty boards for the south side southward;

23They made twenty boards for the south side of the House:

23Of which twenty were at the south side southward,

24and he made 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.

24And for these twenty boards, forty silver bases, two bases under every board, to take its tongues.

24With forty sockets of silver, two sockets were put under one board on the two sides of the corners, where the mortises of the sides end in the corners.

25And for the second side of the tabernacle, on the north side, he made twenty boards,

25And for the second side of the House, on the north, they made twenty boards,

25At that side also of the tabernacle, that looketh towards the north, he made twenty boards,

26and their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.

26With their forty silver bases, two bases for every board.

26With forty sockets of silver, two sockets for every board.

27And for the hinder part of the tabernacle westward he made six boards.

27And for the west side of the House, at the back, they made six boards,

27But against the west, to wit, at that side of the tabernacle, which looketh to the sea, he made six boards,

28And two boards made he for the corners of the tabernacle in the hinder part.

28And two boards for the angles at the back.

28And two others at each corner of the tabernacle behind:

29And they were double beneath; and in like manner they were entire unto the top thereof unto one ring: thus he did to both of them in the two corners.

29These were joined together at the base and at the top to one ring, so forming the two angles.

29Which were also joined from beneath unto the top, and went together into one joint. Thus he did on both sides at the corners:

30And there were eight boards, and their sockets of silver, sixteen sockets; under every board two sockets.

30So there were eight boards with sixteen bases of silver, two bases under every board.

30So there were in all eight boards, and they had sixteen sockets of silver, to wit, two sockets under every board.

31And he made bars of acacia wood; five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,

31And they made rods of hard wood; five for the boards on one side of the House,

31He made also bars of setim wood, five to hold together the boards of one side of the tabernacle,

32and five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle for the hinder part westward.

32And five for the boards on the other side of the House, and five for the boards at the back, on the west.

32And five others to join together the boards of the other side; and besides these, five other bars at the west side of the tabernacle towards the sea.

33And he made the middle bar to pass through in the midst of the boards from the one end to the other.

33The middle rod was made to go right through the rings of all the boards from one end to the other.

33He made also another bar, that might come by the midst of the boards from corner to corner.

34And he overlaid the boards with gold, and made their rings of gold for places for the bars, and overlaid the bars with gold.

34All the boards were plated with gold, and the rings through which the rods went were of gold, and the rods were plated with gold.

34And the boards themselves he overlaid with gold casting for them sockets of silver. And their rings he made of gold, through which the bars might be drawn: and he covered the bars themselves with plates of gold.

35And he made the veil of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen: with cherubim, the work of the skilful workman, made he it.

35And he made the veil of the best linen, blue and purple and red, worked with winged ones designed by expert workmen.

35He made also a veil of violet, and purple, scarlet and fine twisted linen, varied and distinguished with embroidery:

36And he made thereunto four pillars of acacia, and overlaid them with gold: their hooks were of gold; and he cast for them four sockets of silver.

36And they made four pillars for it of hard wood plated with gold: they had hooks of gold and four silver bases.

36And four pillars of setim wood, which with their heads he overlaid with gold, casting for them sockets of silver.

37And he made a screen for the door of the Tent, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, the work of the embroiderer;

37And they made a curtain for the door of the tent, of the best linen with needlework of blue and purple and red;

37He made also a hanging in the entry of the tabernacle of violet, purple, scarlet, and fine twisted linen, with the work of an embroiderer.

38and the five pillars of it with their hooks: and he overlaid their capitals and their fillets with gold; and their five sockets were of brass.

38And five pillars for the curtain, with their hooks; the heads of the pillars were of gold and they were circled with bands of gold; and their five bases were of brass.

38And five pillars with their heads, which he covered with gold, and their sockets he cast of brass.
