Exodus - ch 31 v 1 - 18
- And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
- Behold, I have called by name Beseleel the son of Uri the son of Hur of the tribe of Juda,
- And I have filled him with the spirit of God, with wisdom and understanding, and knowledge in all manner of work.
- To devise whatsoever may be artificially made of gold, and silver, and brass,
- Of marble, and precious stones, and variety of wood.
- And I have given him for his companion Ooliab the son of Achisamech of the tribe of Dan. And I have put wisdom in the heart of every skilful man, that they may make all things which I have commanded thee,
- The tabernacle of the covenant, and the ark of the testimony, and the propitiatory that is over it, and all the vessels of the tabernacle,
- And the table and the vessels thereof, the most pure candlestick with the vessels thereof, and the altars of incense,
- And of holocaust, and all their vessels, the laver with its foot,
- The holy vestments in the ministry for Aaron the priest, and for his sons, that they may execute their office about the sacred things:
- The oil of unction, and the incense of spices in the sanctuary, all things which I have commanded thee, shall they make.
- And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
- Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: See that thou keep my sabbath: because it is a sign between me and you in your generations: that you may know that I am the Lord, who sanctify you.
- Keep you my sabbath: for it is holy unto you: he that shall profane it, shall be put to death: he that shall do my work in it, his soul shall perish out of the midst of his people.
- Six days shall you do work: in the seventh day is the sabbath, the rest holy to the Lord. Every one that shall do any work on this day, shall die.
- Let the children of Israel keep the sabbath, and celebrate it in their generations. It is an everlasting covenant
- Between me and the children of Israel, and a perpetual sign. For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and in the seventh he ceased from work.
- And the Lord, when he had ended these words in mount Sinai, gave to Moses two stone tables of testimony, written with the finger of God.
