31:1 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
31:2 See, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah:
31:3 And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,
31:4 To make beautifully wrought works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,
31:5 And in cutting of stones, to set [them], and in carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship.
31:6 And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan: and in the hearts of all that are wise hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded thee;
31:7 The tabernacle of the congregation, and the ark of the testimony, and the mercy seat that [is] upon it, and all the furniture of the tabernacle,
31:8 And the table and its furniture, and the pure lampstand with all its furniture, and the altar of incense,
31:9 And the altar of burnt offering with all its furniture, and the laver and its foot,
31:10 And the cloths of service, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister in the priests office,
31:11 And the anointing oil, and sweet incense for the holy [place]: according to all that I have commanded thee shall they do.
31:12 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
31:13 Speak thou also to the children of Israel, saying, Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep: for it [is] a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that [ye] may know that I [am] the LORD that doth sanctify you.
31:14 Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it [is] holy to you: every one that profaneth it shall surely be put to death: for whoever doeth [any] work in it, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
31:15 Six days may work be done; but in the seventh [is] the sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD: whoever doeth [any] work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death.
31:16 Therefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, [for] a perpetual covenant.
31:17 It [is] a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for [in] six days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.
31:18 And to Moses, when he finished speaking with him upon mount Sinai, he gave two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God.
