1Then wrought Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wise hearted man, in whom the LORD put wisdom and understanding to know how to work all manner of work for the service of the sanctuary, according to all that the LORD had commanded. 2And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wise hearted man, in whose heart the LORD had put wisdom, even every one whose heart stirred him up to come unto the work to do it: 3And they received of Moses all the offering, which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, to make it withal. And they brought yet unto him free offerings every morning. 4And all the wise men, that wrought all the work of the sanctuary, came every man from his work which they made;
5¶ And they spake unto Moses, saying, The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work, which the LORD commanded to make. 6And Moses gave commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman make any more work for the offering of the sanctuary. So the people were restrained from bringing. 7For the stuff they had was sufficient for all the work to make it, and too much.
8¶ And every wise hearted man among them that wrought the work of the tabernacle made ten curtains of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet: with cherubims of cunning work made he them. 9The length of one curtain was twenty and eight cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: the curtains were all of one size. 10And he coupled the five curtains one unto another: and the other five curtains he coupled one unto another. 11And he made loops of blue on the edge of one curtain from the selvedge in the coupling: likewise he made in the uttermost side of another curtain, in the coupling of the second.36.11 selvedge: an edge of cloth so woven that it cannot unravel 12Fifty loops made he in one curtain, and fifty loops made he in the edge of the curtain which was in the coupling of the second: the loops held one curtain to another. 13And he made fifty taches of gold, and coupled the curtains one unto another with the taches: so it became one tabernacle.
14¶ And he made curtains of goats’ hair for the tent over the tabernacle: eleven curtains he made them. 15The length of one curtain was thirty cubits, and four cubits was the breadth of one curtain: the eleven curtains were of one size. 16And he coupled five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves. 17And he made fifty loops upon the uttermost edge of the curtain in the coupling, and fifty loops made he upon the edge of the curtain which coupleth the second. 18And he made fifty taches of brass to couple the tent together, that it might be one. 19And he made a covering for the tent of rams’ skins dyed red, and a covering of badgers’ skins above that.
20¶ And he made boards for the tabernacle of shittim wood, standing up. 21The length of a board was ten cubits, and the breadth of a board one cubit and a half. 22One board had two tenons, equally distant one from another: thus did he make for all the boards of the tabernacle. 23And he made boards for the tabernacle; twenty boards for the south side southward: 24And forty sockets of silver he made under the twenty boards; two sockets under one board for his two tenons, and two sockets under another board for his two tenons. 25And for the other side of the tabernacle, which is toward the north corner, he made twenty boards, 26And their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board. 27And for the sides of the tabernacle westward he made six boards. 28And two boards made he for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides. 29And they were coupled beneath, and coupled together at the head thereof, to one ring: thus he did to both of them in both the corners.36.29 coupled: Heb. twinned 30And there were eight boards; and their sockets were sixteen sockets of silver, under every board two sockets.36.30 under…: Heb. two sockets, two sockets under one board
31¶ And he made bars of shittim wood; five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle, 32And five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle for the sides westward. 33And he made the middle bar to shoot through the boards from the one end to the other. 34And he overlaid the boards with gold, and made their rings of gold to be places for the bars, and overlaid the bars with gold.
35¶ And he made a vail of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen: with cherubims made he it of cunning work. 36And he made thereunto four pillars of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold: their hooks were of gold; and he cast for them four sockets of silver.
37¶ And he made an hanging for the tabernacle door of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, of needlework;36.37 of needlework: Heb. the work of a needleworker or, embroiderer 38And the five pillars of it with their hooks: and he overlaid their chapiters and their fillets with gold: but their five sockets were of brass.
1摩西說：「比撒列、亞何利亞伯以及所有蒙耶和華賜智慧聰明、有技能、懂得如何建造聖所的人，都要按照耶和華的吩咐去做。」
2於是，摩西召來比撒列、亞何利亞伯和所有蒙耶和華賜智慧、有技能、願意參與建造的人。 3他們從摩西那裡領取了以色列百姓奉獻出來建造聖所的一切禮物。每天早上，百姓仍然甘心樂意地來奉獻禮物， 4以致所有建造聖所的能工巧匠都放下自己的工作， 5前來對摩西說：「百姓的奉獻太多了，我們建造耶和華吩咐的聖所用不了。」
6於是，摩西傳令全營：「大家不用再為聖所奉獻禮物了。」百姓這才停止奉獻。 7因為所獻的材料已經足夠建造聖所，而且綽綽有餘。
8工人中的能工巧匠用十幅幔子做成了聖幕，幔子用細麻線和藍色、紫色、朱紅色的線織成，上面精工繡製了基路伯天使。 9每幅幔子的尺寸都一樣，長十二米、寬兩米。 10又把每五幅幔子連在一起，共連成兩幅大幔子。 11然後在每幅大幔子邊緣釘上了藍色的扣環， 12每幅各釘上五十個扣環，都是兩兩相對。 13又做了五十個金鉤，把兩幅大幔子連在一起，成為聖幕。
14比撒列用山羊毛織成十一幅幔子，做聖幕的罩棚， 15每幅幔子的尺寸都一樣，長十三米、寬兩米。 16然後把五幅連成一大幅，餘下的六幅又連成一大幅。 17又在這兩幅大幔子邊緣各釘上五十個對稱的扣環， 18再用五十個銅鉤，把兩幅大幔子連在一起，成為一個罩棚， 19並在罩棚上面蓋一層染成紅色的公羊皮，再蓋一層海狗皮做頂蓋。
20他用皂莢木做支撐聖幕的木板， 21每塊木板長四米，寬六十六釐米， 22上面都有兩個接榫，用來把木板連接在一起。聖幕的所有木板都這樣做。 23聖幕的南面共有二十塊木板， 24在這些木板下面又造了四十個帶凹槽的銀底座，每塊木板下面有兩個，套在木板的兩個接榫上。 25聖幕北面也有二十塊木板， 26木板下面同樣有四十個帶凹槽的銀底座，每塊木板下面有兩個銀底座。 27聖幕的後面，就是西面，有六塊木板， 28聖幕的兩個拐角各有兩塊木板， 29木板的下端連於底座，頂端用一個環固定。兩個拐角都要這樣做。 30這樣後面共有八塊木板，每塊木板下面各有兩個銀底座，一共是十六個銀底座。
31-32他用皂莢木做橫閂，聖幕左右兩邊和後面的牆板上各有五根橫閂， 33攔腰固定牆板的那根橫閂從這端貫穿到那端。 34所有的木板和橫閂都包上金，並在木板上造金環，用來穿橫閂。
35他用細麻線和藍色、紫色、朱紅色的線織成一幅幔子，精工繡上基路伯天使， 36把這幅幔子掛在四根用皂莢木造的柱子上，柱子外面包上金，加上金鉤，四根柱子下面有四個銀底座。 37他又用細麻線和藍色、紫色、朱紅色的線繡製聖幕的門簾， 38用皂莢木做五根掛門簾的柱子，上面有金鉤，柱頂和橫杆包上金。柱子的五個底座是銅造的。
