Exodus 35:30–36:1

The Artisans Called by God

³⁰And Moses said to the children of Israel, “See, ^fthe Lord has called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah; ³¹and He has filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom and understanding, in knowledge and all manner of workmanship, ³²to design artistic works, to work in gold and silver and bronze, ³³in 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 ^gAholiab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan. ³⁵He has ^hfilled 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.

36“And Bezalel and Aholiab, and every ^agifted artisan in whom the Lord has put wisdom and understanding, to know how to do all manner of work for the service of the ^bsanctuary, ¹shall do according to all that the Lord has commanded.”
