²²Every man and woman who wanted to give came. They brought gold jewelry of all kinds. They brought pins, earrings, rings and other jewelry. All of them gave their gold as a wave offering to the Lord.

²³People brought what they had. They brought blue, purple or bright red yarn or fine linen. They brought goat hair, ram skins that were dyed red, or the hides of sea cows. ²⁴Some brought silver or bronze as an offering to the Lord. Others brought acacia wood for any part of the work.

²⁵All of the skilled women spun yarn with their hands. They brought blue, purple or bright red yarn or fine linen. ²⁶All of the skilled women who wanted to spin the goat hair did so.

²⁷The leaders brought onyx stones and other jewels for the linen apron and the chest cloth. ²⁸They also brought spices and olive oil. They brought them for the light, for the anointing oil, and for the sweet-smelling incense.

²⁹All of the men and women of Israel who wanted to bring offerings to the Lord brought them to him. The offerings were for all of the work the Lord had commanded Moses to tell them to do.
