Esodo 35

Studie

   

1 Mosè convocò tutta la raunanza de’ figliuoli d’Israele, e disse loro: "Queste son le cose che l’Eterno ha ordinato di fare.

2 Sei giorni si dovrà lavorare, ma il settimo giorno sarà per voi un giorno santo, un sabato di solenne riposo, consacrato all’Eterno. Chiunque farà qualche lavoro in esso sarà messo a morte.

3 Non accenderete fuoco in alcuna delle vostre abitazioni il giorno del sabato".

4 Poi Mosè parlò a tutta la raunanza de’ figliuoli d’Israele, e disse: "Questo è quello che l’Eterno ha ordinato:

5 Prelevate da quello che avete, un’offerta all’Eterno; chiunque è di cuor volenteroso recherà un’offerta all’Eterno: oro, argento, rame;

6 stoffe di color violaceo, porporino, scarlatto, lino fino, pel di capra,

7 pelli di montone tinte in rosso, pelli di delfino, legno d’acacia,

8 olio per il candelabro, aromi per l’olio dell’unzione e per il profumo fragrante,

9 pietre d’onice, pietre da incastonare per l’efod e per il pettorale.

10 Chiunque tra voi ha dell’abilità venga ed eseguisca tutto quello che l’Eterno ha ordinato:

11 il tabernacolo, la sua tenda e la sua coperta, i suoi fermagli, le sue assi, le sue traverse, le sue colonne e le sue basi,

12 l’arca, le sue stanghe, il propiziatorio e il velo da stender davanti all’arca, la tavola e le sue stanghe,

13 tutti i suoi utensili, e il pane della presentazione;

14 il candelabro per la luce e i suoi utensili, le sue lampade e l’olio per il candelabro;

15 l’altare dei profumi e le sue stanghe, l’olio dell’unzione e il profumo fragrante, la portiera dell’ingresso per l’entrata del tabernacolo,

16 l’altare degli olocausti con la sua gratella di rame, le sue stanghe e tutti i suoi utensili, la conca e la sua base,

17 le cortine del cortile, le sue colonne e le loro basi e la portiera all’ingresso del cortile;

18 i piuoli del tabernacolo e i piuoli del cortile e le loro funi;

19 i paramenti per le cerimonie per fare il servizio nel luogo santo, i paramenti sacri per il sacerdote Aaronne, e i paramenti de’ suoi figliuoli per esercitare il sacerdozio".

20 Allora tutta la raunanza de’ figliuoli d’Israele si partì dalla presenza di Mosè.

21 E tutti quelli che il loro cuore spingeva e tutti quelli che il loro spirito rendea volenterosi, vennero a portare l’offerta all’Eterno per l’opera della tenda di convegno, per tutto il suo servizio e per i paramenti sacri.

22 Vennero uomini e donne; quanti erano di cuor volenteroso portarono fermagli, orecchini, anelli da sigillare e braccialetti, ogni sorta di gioielli d’oro; ognuno portò qualche offerta d’oro all’Eterno.

23 E chiunque aveva delle stoffe tinte in violaceo, porporino, scarlatto, o lino fino, o pel di capra, o pelli di montone tinte in rosso, o pelli di delfino, portava ogni cosa.

24 Chiunque prelevò un’offerta d’argento e di rame, portò l’offerta consacrata all’Eterno; e chiunque aveva del legno d’acacia per qualunque lavoro destinato al servizio, lo portò.

25 E tutte le donne abili filarono con le proprie mani e portarono i loro filati in color violaceo, porporino, scarlatto, e del lino fino.

26 E tutte le donne che il cuore spinse ad usare la loro abilità, filarono del pel di capra.

27 E i capi dei popolo portarono pietre d’onice e pietre da incastonare per l’efod e per il pettorale,

28 aromi e olio per il candelabro, per l’olio dell’unzione e per il profumo fragrante.

29 Tutti i figliuoli d’Israele, uomini e donne, che il cuore mosse a portare volenterosamente il necessario per tutta l’opera che l’Eterno aveva ordinata per mezzo di Mosè, recarono all’Eterno delle offerte volontarie.

30 Mosè disse ai figliuoli d’Israele: "Vedete, l’Eterno ha chiamato per nome Betsaleel, figliuolo di Uri, figliuolo di Hur, della tribù di Giuda;

31 e lo ha ripieno dello spirito di Dio, di abilità, d’intelligenza e di sapere per ogni sorta di lavori,

32 per concepire opere d’arte, per lavorar l’oro, l’argento e il rame,

33 per incidere pietre da incastonare, per scolpire il legno, per eseguire ogni sorta di lavori d’arte.

34 E gli ha comunicato il dono d’insegnare: a lui ed a Oholiab, figliuolo di Ahisamac, della tribù di Dan.

35 Li ha ripieni d’intelligenza per eseguire ogni sorta di lavori d’artigiano e di disegnatore, di ricamatore e di tessitore in colori svariati: violaceo, porporino, scarlatto, e di lino fino, per eseguire qualunque lavoro e per concepire lavori d’arte.

1. And Moses gathered together all the assembly of the children of Israel, and said to them, These are the words which Jehovah has commanded, to do them.

2. Six days shall work be done, and the seventh day shall be a holy day for you, a sabbath of rest to Jehovah 1 ; everyone doing work on it shall die.

3. You shall not kindle a fire in any of your dwelling-places on the sabbath day.

4. And Moses spoke to all the assembly of the children of Israel, saying, This is the word which Jehovah commanded, saying,

5. Take from among you an offering to Jehovah. Everyone who is willing in heart shall bring Jehovah's offering: gold and silver and bronze,

7. And skins of red rams 2 , and skins of badgers, and pieces of shittim wood 3 ,

8. And oil for the light, and spices for the anointing oil, and for the incense of spices,

9. And shoham 4 stones, and stones of fillings 5 for the ephod and for the breastplate.

10. And let everyone wise in heart among you come and make all the things which Jehovah has commanded:

11. The dwelling-place, its tent, and its covering, its clasps, and its boards, its bars, its pillars, and its bases,

12. The ark and its poles, the mercy-seat, and the veil of the screen 6 ,

16. The altar of burnt offering and the grating of bronze made for it, its poles, and all its vessels, the laver and its pedestal,

17. The hangings of the court, its pillars, and its bases, and the screen of the gate of the court,

18. The pins of the dwelling-place, and the pins of the court, and their ropes,

19. The garments of service for serving in the holy place, the holy garments 8 for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons for serving in the priestly office.

20. And all the assembly of the children of Israel went out from before Moses.

21. And they came, every man whose heart stirred him, and everyone whose spirit was willing 9 ; they brought Jehovah's offering for the work of the tent of meeting, and for all its service, and for the holy garments 8 .

22. And they came, the men with the women, everyone willing in heart; they brought brooches, and earrings, and rings, and girdles, and all jewellery made of gold 10 ; and every man who waved a wave-offering of gold to Jehovah.

23. And every man with whom was found violet and purple and twice-dyed scarlet and fine linen and [wool of] she-goats and skins of red rams 2 and skins of badgers brought them.

24. And everyone bearing an offering of silver and bronze brought Jehovah's offering; and everyone with whom was found pieces of shittim wood 3 for any work of the service brought them.

25. And every woman wise at heart spun with her hands; and they brought the yarn, violet and purple, twice-dyed scarlet and fine linen.

26. And all the women whose hearts stirred them in wisdom spun [the yarn of] she-goats.

27. And the leaders brought shoham 4 stones and stones of fillings 5 for the ephod and for the breastplate,

28. And spices, and oil for the light and for the anointing oil and for the incense of spices.

29. Every man and woman whose hearts were willing to bring something for all the work which Jehovah had commanded through Moses to be done 11 [came]; the children of Israel brought a freewill offering to Jehovah.

30. And Moses said to the children of Israel, See, Jehovah has called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, belonging to the tribe of Judah.

31. And He has filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, in intelligence, and in knowledge, and in all [manner of] work 12 ,

32. To compose designs 13 , to work 14 in gold, and in silver, and in bronze,

33. And in the cutting of stones for filling 15 , and in the carving of wood to work 1 in all [manner of] work of the designer 16 .

34. And He has put [wisdom] into his heart in order that he - he and Aholiab the son of Ahisamach belonging to the tribe of Dan - may teach [others].

35. He has filled them with wisdom of heart to do every work of a craftsman, and of a designer, and of an embroiderer in violet and in purple and in twice-dyed scarlet and in fine linen, and of a weaver - of those doing every work, of those who compose designs 17 .

CONTENTS

The internal sense of this chapter makes brief reference to every kind of goodness and truth which exists in the Church and in heaven, and from which worship of the Lord springs. These are the things that are meant by the materials which the children of Israel brought willingly to make the tabernacle and everything in it, also the altar of burnt offering, and the garments of Aaron and his sons as well.
