¹ 耶和華曉諭摩西說

² 看哪，猶大支派中，戶珥的孫子、烏利的兒子比撒列，我已經題他的名召他。

³ 我也以我的靈充滿了他，使他有智慧，有聰明，有知識，能做各樣的工，

⁴ 能想出巧工，用金、銀、銅製造各物，

⁵ 又能刻寶石，可以鑲嵌，能雕刻木頭，能做各樣的工。

⁶ 我分派但支派中、亞希撒抹的兒子亞何利亞伯與他同工。凡心裡有智慧的，我更使他們有智慧，能做我一切所吩咐的，

⁷ 就是會幕和法櫃，並其上的施恩座，與會幕中一切的器具，

⁸ 桌子和桌子的器具，精金的燈臺和燈臺的一切器具並香壇，

⁹ 燔祭壇和壇的一切器具，並洗濯盆與盆座，

¹⁰ 精工做的禮服，和祭司亞倫並他兒子用以供祭司職分的聖衣，

¹¹ 膏油和為聖所用馨香的香料。他們都要照我一切所吩咐的去做。

¹² 耶和華曉諭摩西說：

¹³ 你要吩咐以色列人說：你們務要守我的安息日；因為這是你我之間世世代代的證據，使你們知道我─耶和華是叫你們成為聖的。

¹⁴ 所以你們要守安息日，以為聖日。凡干犯這日的，必要把他治死；凡在這日做工的，必從民中剪除。

¹⁵ 六日要做工，但第七日是安息聖日，是向耶和華守為聖的。凡在安息日做工的，必要把他治死。

¹⁶ 故此，以色列人要世世代代守安息日為永遠的約。

¹⁷ 這是我和以色列人永遠的證據；因為六日之內耶和華造天地，第七日便安息舒暢。

¹⁸ 耶和華在西乃山和摩西說完了話，就把兩塊法版交給他，是神用指頭寫的石版。

¹ Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

² "Behold, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah:

³ and I have filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all kinds of workmanship,

⁴ to devise skillful works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,

⁵ and in cutting of stones for setting, and in carving of wood, to work in all kinds of workmanship.

⁶ I, behold, I have appointed with him Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan; and in the heart of all who are wise-hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded you:

⁷ the Tent of Meeting, the ark of the testimony, the mercy seat that is on it, all the furniture of the Tent,

⁸ the table and its vessels, the pure lampstand with all its vessels, the altar of incense,

⁹ the altar of burnt offering with all its vessels, the basin and its base,

¹⁰ the finely worked garments--the holy garments for Aaron the priest--the garments of his sons to minister in the priest's office,

¹¹ the anointing oil, and the incense of sweet spices for the holy place: according to all that I have commanded you they shall do."

¹² Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

¹³ "Speak also to the children of Israel, saying, 'Most certainly you shall keep my Sabbaths: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that you may know that I am Yahweh who sanctifies you.

¹⁴ You shall keep the Sabbath therefore; for it is holy to you. Everyone who profanes it shall surely be put to death; for whoever does any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.

¹⁵ Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest, holy to Yahweh. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day shall surely be put to death.

¹⁶ Therefore the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant.

¹⁷ It is a sign between me and the children of Israel forever; for in six days Yahweh made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.'"

¹⁸ He gave to Moses, when he finished speaking with him on Mount Sinai, the two tablets of the testimony, stone tablets, written with God's finger.
