Exodus 36:1–7

¹Bezalel, Oholiab, and all the skilled ^ypeople are to work based on everything the Lord has commanded. The Lord has given them wisdom and understanding to know how to do all the work of constructing the sanctuary.” ^z

²So Moses summoned Bezalel, Oholiab, and every skilled ^aperson in whose heart the Lord had placed wisdom, everyone whose heart moved him, ^bto come to the work and do it. ³They took from Moses’ presence all the contributions that the Israelites had brought for the task of making the sanctuary. Meanwhile, the people continued to bring freewill offerings morning after morning.

⁴Then all the craftsmen who were doing all the work for the sanctuary came one by one from the work they were doing ⁵and said to Moses, “The people are bringing more than is needed ^cfor the construction of the work the Lord commanded to be done.”

⁶After Moses gave an order, they sent a proclamation throughout the camp: “Let no man or woman make anything else as an offering for the sanctuary.” So the people stopped. ⁷The materials were sufficient for them to do all the work. There was more than enough.
