31Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: ²^a“See, I have called by name Bezalel the ^bson of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah. ³And I have ^cfilled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding, in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship, ⁴to design artistic works, to work in gold, in silver, in bronze, ⁵in cutting jewels for setting, in carving wood, and to work in all manner of workmanship.

⁶“And I, indeed I, have appointed with him ^dAholiab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan; and I have put wisdom in the hearts of all the ^egifted artisans, that they may make all that I have commanded you: ⁷^fthe tabernacle of meeting, ^gthe ark of the Testimony and ^hthe mercy seat that is on it, and all the furniture of the tabernacle—⁸ⁱthe table and its utensils, ^jthe pure gold lampstand with all its utensils, the altar of incense, ⁹^kthe altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and ^lthe laver and its base—¹⁰^mthe ¹garments of ministry, the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments of his sons, to minister as priests, ¹¹ⁿand the anointing oil and ^osweet incense for the holy place. According to all that I have commanded you they shall do.”

The Sabbath Law

¹²And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ¹³“Speak also to the children of Israel, saying: ^p‘Surely My Sabbaths you shall keep, for it is a sign between Me and you throughout your generations, that you may know that I am the Lord who ^qsanctifies ²you. ¹⁴^rYou shall keep the Sabbath, therefore, for it is holy to you. Everyone who ³profanes it shall surely be put to death; for ^swhoever does any work on it, that person shall be cut off from among his people. ¹⁵Work shall be done for ^tsix days, but the ^useventh is the Sabbath of rest, holy to the Lord. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death. ¹⁶Therefore the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations as a perpetual covenant. ¹⁷It is ^va sign between Me and the children of Israel forever; for ^win six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, and on the seventh day He rested and was refreshed.’ ”

¹⁸And when He had made an end of speaking with him on Mount Sinai, He gave Moses ^xtwo tablets of the Testimony, tablets of stone, written with the finger of God.
