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 "You shall make an altar to burn incense on. You shall make it of acacia wood.

² Its length shall be a cubit, and its breadth a cubit. It shall be square, and its height shall be two cubits. Its horns shall be of one piece with it.

³ You shall overlay it with pure gold, its top, its sides around it, and its horns; and you shall make a gold molding around it.

⁴ You shall make two golden rings for it under its molding; on its two ribs, on its two sides you shall make them; and they shall be for places for poles with which to bear it.

⁵ You shall make the poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold.

⁶ You shall put it before the veil that is by the ark of the testimony, before the mercy seat that is over the testimony, where I will meet with you.

⁷ Aaron shall burn incense of sweet spices on it every morning. When he tends the lamps, he shall burn it.

⁸ When Aaron lights the lamps at evening, he shall burn it, a perpetual incense before Yahweh throughout your generations.

⁹ You shall offer no strange incense on it, nor burnt offering, nor meal offering; and you shall pour no drink offering on it.

¹⁰ Aaron shall make atonement on its horns once in the year; with the blood of the sin offering of atonement once in the year he shall make atonement for it throughout your generations. It is most holy to Yahweh."

¹¹ Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

¹² "When you take a census of the children of Israel, according to those who are numbered among them, then each man shall give a ransom for his soul to Yahweh, when you number them; that there be no plague among them when you number them.

¹³ They shall give this, everyone who passes over to those who are numbered, half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary; (the shekel is twenty gerahs;) half a shekel for an offering to Yahweh.

¹⁴ Everyone who passes over to those who are numbered, from twenty years old and upward, shall give the offering to Yahweh.

¹⁵ The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less, than the half shekel, when they give the offering of Yahweh, to make atonement for your souls.

¹⁶ You shall take the atonement money from the children of Israel, and shall appoint it for the service of the Tent of Meeting; that it may be a memorial for the children of Israel before Yahweh, to make atonement for your souls."

¹⁷ Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

¹⁸ "You shall also make a basin of brass, and its base of brass, in which to wash. You shall put it between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and you shall put water in it.

¹⁹ Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet in it.

²⁰ When they go into the Tent of Meeting, they shall wash with water, that they not die; or when they come near to the altar to minister, to burn an offering made by fire to Yahweh.

²¹ So they shall wash their hands and their feet, that they not die: and it shall be a statute forever to them, even to him and to his descendants throughout their generations."

²² Moreover Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

²³ "Also take fine spices: of liquid myrrh, five hundred shekels; and of fragrant cinnamon half as much, even two hundred and fifty; and of fragrant cane, two hundred and fifty;

²⁴ and of cassia five hundred, after the shekel of the sanctuary; and a hin of olive oil.

²⁵ You shall make it a holy anointing oil, a perfume compounded after the art of the perfumer: it shall be a holy anointing oil.

²⁶ You shall use it to anoint the Tent of Meeting, the ark of the testimony,

²⁷ the table and all its articles, the lampstand and its accessories, the altar of incense,

²⁸ the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the basin with its base.

²⁹ You shall sanctify them, that they may be most holy. Whatever touches them shall be holy.

³⁰ You shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and sanctify them, that they may minister to me in the priest's office.

³¹ You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'This shall be a holy anointing oil to me throughout your generations.

³² It shall not be poured on man's flesh, neither shall you make any like it, according to its composition: it is holy. It shall be holy to you.

³³ Whoever compounds any like it, or whoever puts any of it on a stranger, he shall be cut off from his people.'"

³⁴ Yahweh said to Moses, "Take to yourself sweet spices, gum resin, and onycha, and galbanum; sweet spices with pure frankincense: of each shall there be an equal weight;

³⁵ and you shall make incense of it, a perfume after the art of the perfumer, seasoned with salt, pure and holy:

³⁶ and you shall beat some of it very small, and put some of it before the testimony in the Tent of Meeting, where I will meet with you. It shall be to you most holy.

³⁷ The incense which you shall make, according to its composition you shall not make for yourselves: it shall be to you holy for Yahweh.

³⁸ Whoever shall make any like that, to smell of it, he shall be cut off from his people."
