Exodus 31

Thomson(i) 1 Then the Lord spoke to Moses saying, 2 Behold I have called by name, Beseleel the son of Ourius, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judas, 3 and filled him with a divine spirit of wisdom and understanding and knowledge in every kind of workmanship, 4 to contrive and execute as a master carpenter; and to manufacture gold and silver and brass, and blue and purple and scarlet yarn; 5 and to cut stones; and in works of architecture made of wood to execute all kinds of workmanship. 6 Him I have given with Eliab the son of Achisamach of the tribe of Dan. And to every man of an understanding heart have given wisdom and they will make all that I have commanded thee; 7 the tabernacle of the testimony, and the ark of the covenant, and the propitiatory upon it, and the furniture of the tabernacle, 8 and the altars, and the table and all the utensils thereof, 9 and the pure candlestick and all its utensils, and the laver with its base, 10 and the sacerdotal robes of Aaron, and the robes of his sons to minister to me in the priest's office, 11 and the anointing oil and the compound incense of the sanctuary. According to all that I have commanded thee they will do. 12 Moreover the Lord spoke to Moses saying, 13 Charge the children of Israel saying, See that you keep my sabbaths. It is a sign between me and you throughout your generations, that you may know that I am the Lord who sanctifieth you; 14 therefore you shall keep the sabbath, because it is holy to the Lord for you. He who profaneth it shall surely be put to death. Whoever shall do any work on it, that person shall be rooted out from among his people. 15 Six days thou shalt perform works, but on the seventh day are the sabbaths, a rest holy to the Lord. Whoever shall do any work on the seventh day shall be put to death. 16 Therefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbaths and cause them to be kept throughout their generations. It is an everlasting covenant between me and the children of Israel. 17 It is for me a perpetual sign that in six days the Lord made the heaven and the earth and rested on the seventh. 18 Here he paused, and gave Moses, when he had ceased speaking to him on mount Sina, two tables of the testimony; tables of stone written with the finger of God.
