Exodus 35
New Catholic Bible
The Construction and Furnishing of the Sanctuary[a]
Chapter 35
Sabbath Regulations. 1 Moses assembled the whole community of the children of Israel and said to them, “These are the things that the Lord has commanded you to do: 2 For six days you shall work, but the seventh shall be a holy day for you, a day of absolute rest, sacred to the Lord. Whoever works on that day shall be put to death. 3 You shall light no fires on the Sabbath in all of your dwellings.”
Materials for the Tabernacle. 4 Moses told the whole community of the children of Israel, “This is what the Lord has commanded you to do: 5 Take up an offering from among yourselves for the Lord. Whoever is generous, let him bring the offering to the Lord: gold, silver, and bronze, 6 blue, purple, and scarlet material, fine twisted linen, goat hair, 7 rams’ skins dyed red, sheep skins, acacia wood, 8 oil for lamps, balsam for anointing, and oil for fragrant incense, 9 onyx stones and stones for setting in the ephod and the breastplate.
10 “All the artisans among you shall come and make what the Lord has commanded: 11 the tabernacle, its tent, its covering, its hooks, its boards, its bars, its pillars, its bases; 12 the Ark and its poles, the seat of atonement, and the veil of the screen; 13 the table with its poles and all its accessories, the bread of the Presence; 14 the lampstand that provides light and its accessories, the lamps, and the oil for light; 15 the altar of incense with its poles, the anointing oil, and the fragrant incense; the screen for the door at the entrance to the tabernacle; 16 the altar of burnt offerings with its bronze grate, its poles, and all its accessories; the basin and its base; 17 the drapes for the courtyard, their columns, and their bases, and the screen for the gate of the courtyard; 18 the pegs for the tabernacle and the pegs for the courtyard and their cords; 19 the carefully prepared cloths for ministering in the sanctuary, the sacred vestments for Aaron the priest and the vestments for his sons to exercise their priesthood.”
20 All the community of the children of Israel left the presence of Moses. 21 Then those whose hearts were stirred and whose spirits moved them came and brought the Lord’s offerings to be used for the construction of the meeting tent and for all its service and for the sacred vestments. 22 Men and women came forward, those whose hearts were willing, and they brought brooches and earrings and rings and armlets, all kinds of golden objects, and each man dedicated his gold unto the Lord.
23 All those who had blue or purple or scarlet cloth, or fine linen, or goat hair, or rams’ skins dyed red, or sheep skins brought them. 24 Those who could make an offering of silver or bronze offered it to the Lord. Likewise, those who had acacia wood for some purpose brought it.
25 Furthermore, all the skilled women spun with their hands and brought the blue, purple, and scarlet cloth and the fine linen they had spun. 26 All the women whose hearts were moved by wisdom spun goat hair. 27 The leaders brought onyx stones and stones for setting in the ephod and the breastplate, 28 balsam and oil for light, oil of anointing, and fragrant incense. 29 Thus, all the men and women whose hearts moved them to bring something for the construction that the Lord had commanded them to build through Moses brought it. The children of Israel brought their freewill offerings to the Lord.
30 The Artisans. Moses said to the children of Israel, “Behold, the Lord has summoned Bezalel, the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, by name. 31 He has filled him with the Spirit of God, with wisdom, with intelligence, with knowledge, and with ability in every type of craft, 32 to design artistic works in gold, silver, and bronze, 33 to know how to cut stones for settings and how to carve wood. He is expert in every craft. 34 He has inspired him to teach, both him and Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach of the tribe of Dan. 35 He has filled them with the skill needed to do the work of the engraver, the designer, and the embroiderer, to work with blue and purple and scarlet cloth and fine linen, and to weave. They can do the work of any craftsman or designer.
Footnotes
- Exodus 35:1 Thanks to Moses, Israel is restored to God’s favor; this is therefore the period of the building of a sanctuary in order to ensure the presence of God in the midst of his people. This final part of the Book of Exodus looks back to and repeats almost verbatim the instructions given earlier (chs. 25–31).
Исход 35
New Russian Translation
Законы о субботе
35 Моисей собрал все общество израильтян и сказал им:
– Вот что Господь повелел вам: 2 заниматься делами следует шесть дней, но седьмой день – святой, это суббота покоя, день, посвященный Господу. Всякий, кто станет в этот день заниматься делами, будет предан смерти. 3 Не зажигайте в субботний день огня в своих жилищах.
Приношения для скинии(A)
4 Моисей сказал обществу израильтян:
– Господь повелел: 5 «Из того, что у вас есть, сделайте приношение Господу. Пусть всякий, у кого щедрое сердце, сделает Господу приношение золотом, серебром и бронзой; 6 голубой, пурпурной, алой пряжей и тонким льном; козьей шерстью; 7 бараньей кожей, покрашенной красным, кожей дюгоней и древесиной акации; 8 оливковым маслом для светильников; благовониями для масла помазания и для возжигания; 9 ониксом и другими самоцветами, чтобы украсить камнями эфод и нагрудник.
10 Те из вас, кто искусен в ремеслах, пусть придут и сделают все, что повелел Господь: 11 скинию с покрытием, застежками, брусьями, перекладинами, столбами и основаниями; 12 ковчег с шестами и крышкой и завесу, которая его закрывает; 13 стол с шестами и всей утварью и хлеб Присутствия; 14 светильник для освещения со всей утварью и лампадами и масло для освещения; 15 жертвенник для возжигания благовоний с шестами, масло для помазания, благовония, завесу для входа в скинию, 16 жертвенник для всесожжений с бронзовой решеткой, шестами и утварью, умывальник с его основанием, 17 завесы двора со столбами и основаниями, завесу для входа во двор, 18 колья с веревками для скинии и двора, 19 тканые одеяния для служения в святилище: священные одеяния для священника Аарона и его сыновей, когда они служат как священники».
20 Народ израильский разошелся от Моисея, 21 и каждый, кто хотел и кого побуждало сердце, приходил и делал приношение Господу на изготовление шатра собрания, на службу в нем и на священные одеяния. 22 Все щедрые сердцем, и мужчины, и женщины, приходили и приносили разные золотые изделия: броши, серьги, перстни и подвески. Они посвящали свое золото Господу. 23 У кого были голубая, пурпурная или алая пряжа, тонкий лен, козья шерсть, баранья кожа, крашенная красным, или кожа дюгоней, те приносили их. 24 Те, кто мог жертвовать серебро или бронзу, приносили их в дар Господу, и всякий, у кого была древесина акации для какой-либо работы, приносили ее. 25 Каждая женщина-умелица сама пряла и приносила то, что напряла: голубую, пурпурную или алую пряжу или тонкий лен. 26 Женщины, которые умели прясть, по велению сердца пряли козью шерсть. 27 Главы родов приносили оникс и другие самоцветы, чтобы украсить ими эфод и нагрудник. 28 Еще они приносили благовония и оливковое масло для светильника, для масла помазания и для возжигания. 29 Все израильтяне и израильтянки, кого побуждало сердце, делали Господу добровольные приношения для той работы, которую Господь через Моисея повелел им сделать.
Веселеил и Оголиав(B)
30 Моисей сказал израильтянам:
– Господь избрал Веселеила, сына Ури, внука Хура, из рода Иуды, 31 и исполнил его Духом Божьим, мудростью, разумением, знанием и всяким мастерством. 32 Он может воплощать свои замыслы в золоте, серебре и бронзе, 33 может гранить и оправлять камни, резать по дереву и заниматься всяким ремеслом. 34 Он даровал ему и Оголиаву, сыну Ахисамаха, из рода Дана, способность учить других. 35 Он дал им умение делать любую работу ремесленников, художников, ткачей и вышивальщиков по голубой, пурпурной и алой ткани и тонкому льну. Они были искусными ремесленниками и художниками.

Offerings for the Tabernacle(E)
4 And Moses spoke to all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying, (F)“This is the thing which the Lord commanded, saying: 5 ‘Take from among you an offering to the Lord.

The Tabernacle Offerings Presented
20 And all the congregation of the children of Israel departed from the presence of Moses. 21 Then everyone came (X)whose heart [b]was stirred, and everyone whose spirit was willing, and they (Y)brought the Lord’s offering for the work of the tabernacle of meeting, for all its service, and for the holy garments. 22 They came, both men and women, as many as had a willing heart, and brought (Z)earrings and nose rings, rings and necklaces, all (AA)jewelry of gold, that is, every man who made an offering of gold to the Lord. 23 And (AB)every man, with whom was found blue, purple, and scarlet thread, fine linen, and goats’ hair, red skins of rams, and [c]badger skins, brought them. 24 Everyone who offered an offering of silver or bronze brought the Lord’s offering. And everyone with whom was found acacia wood for any work of the service, brought it. 25 All the women who were (AC)gifted artisans spun yarn with their hands, and brought what they had spun, of blue, purple, and scarlet, and fine linen. 26 And all the women whose hearts [d]stirred with wisdom spun yarn of goats’ hair. 27 (AD)The rulers brought onyx stones, and the stones to be set in the ephod and in the breastplate, 28 and (AE)spices and oil for the light, for the anointing oil, and for the sweet incense. 29 The children of Israel brought a (AF)freewill offering to the Lord, all the men and women whose hearts were willing to bring material for all kinds of work which the Lord, by the hand of Moses, had commanded to be done.
The Artisans Called by God(AG)
30 And Moses said to the children of Israel, “See, (AH)the Lord 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 and understanding, in knowledge and all manner of workmanship, 32 to design artistic works, to work in gold and silver and bronze, 33 in cutting jewels for setting, in carving wood, and to work in all manner of artistic workmanship.
34 “And He has put in his heart the ability to teach, in him and (AI)Aholiab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan. 35 He has (AJ)filled them with skill to do all manner of work of the engraver and the designer and the tapestry maker, in blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and fine linen, and of the weaver—those who do every work and those who design artistic works.
