Exodus 36 – NIV & TCB

New International Version

Exodus 36:1-38

1So Bezalel, Oholiab and every skilled person to whom the Lord has given skill and ability to know how to carry out all the work of constructing the sanctuary are to do the work just as the Lord has commanded.”

2Then Moses summoned Bezalel and Oholiab and every skilled person to whom the Lord had given ability and who was willing to come and do the work. 3They received from Moses all the offerings the Israelites had brought to carry out the work of constructing the sanctuary. And the people continued to bring freewill offerings morning after morning. 4So all the skilled workers who were doing all the work on the sanctuary left what they were doing 5and said to Moses, “The people are bringing more than enough for doing the work the Lord commanded to be done.”

6Then Moses gave an order and they sent this word throughout the camp: “No man or woman is to make anything else as an offering for the sanctuary.” And so the people were restrained from bringing more, 7because what they already had was more than enough to do all the work.

The Tabernacle

8All those who were skilled among the workers made the tabernacle with ten curtains of finely twisted linen and blue, purple and scarlet yarn, with cherubim woven into them by expert hands. 9All the curtains were the same size—twenty-eight cubits long and four cubits wide.36:9 That is, about 42 feet long and 6 feet wide or about 13 meters long and 1.8 meters wide 10They joined five of the curtains together and did the same with the other five. 11Then they made loops of blue material along the edge of the end curtain in one set, and the same was done with the end curtain in the other set. 12They also made fifty loops on one curtain and fifty loops on the end curtain of the other set, with the loops opposite each other. 13Then they made fifty gold clasps and used them to fasten the two sets of curtains together so that the tabernacle was a unit.

14They made curtains of goat hair for the tent over the tabernacle—eleven altogether. 15All eleven curtains were the same size—thirty cubits long and four cubits wide.36:15 That is, about 45 feet long and 6 feet wide or about 14 meters long and 1.8 meters wide 16They joined five of the curtains into one set and the other six into another set. 17Then they made fifty loops along the edge of the end curtain in one set and also along the edge of the end curtain in the other set. 18They made fifty bronze clasps to fasten the tent together as a unit. 19Then they made for the tent a covering of ram skins dyed red, and over that a covering of the other durable leather.36:19 Possibly the hides of large aquatic mammals (see 35:7)

20They made upright frames of acacia wood for the tabernacle. 21Each frame was ten cubits long and a cubit and a half wide,36:21 That is, about 15 feet long and 2 1/4 feet wide or about 4.5 meters long and 68 centimeters wide 22with two projections set parallel to each other. They made all the frames of the tabernacle in this way. 23They made twenty frames for the south side of the tabernacle 24and made forty silver bases to go under them—two bases for each frame, one under each projection. 25For the other side, the north side of the tabernacle, they made twenty frames 26and forty silver bases—two under each frame. 27They made six frames for the far end, that is, the west end of the tabernacle, 28and two frames were made for the corners of the tabernacle at the far end. 29At these two corners the frames were double from the bottom all the way to the top and fitted into a single ring; both were made alike. 30So there were eight frames and sixteen silver bases—two under each frame.

31They also made crossbars of acacia wood: five for the frames on one side of the tabernacle, 32five for those on the other side, and five for the frames on the west, at the far end of the tabernacle. 33They made the center crossbar so that it extended from end to end at the middle of the frames. 34They overlaid the frames with gold and made gold rings to hold the crossbars. They also overlaid the crossbars with gold.

35They made the curtain of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen, with cherubim woven into it by a skilled worker. 36They made four posts of acacia wood for it and overlaid them with gold. They made gold hooks for them and cast their four silver bases. 37For the entrance to the tent they made a curtain of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen—the work of an embroiderer; 38and they made five posts with hooks for them. They overlaid the tops of the posts and their bands with gold and made their five bases of bronze.

Exodus 36:1-38

1“Sina Bezalel, Oholiab at ang iba pang binigyan ng Panginoon ng kaalaman at kakayahan sa ibaʼt ibang gawain ang siyang gagawa ng Tolda ayon sa utos ng Panginoon.”

2Kaya ipinatawag ni Moises sina Bezalel, Oholiab at ang iba pang binigyan ng Panginoon ng kaalaman at kakayahan sa ibaʼt ibang gawain na desididong tumulong sa pagtatrabaho. 3Ibinigay ni Moises sa kanila ang lahat ng inihandog ng mga Israelita para sa pagpapatayo ng Tolda. At patuloy pa rin ang kusang-loob na pagdadala ng mga tao ng mga handog nila tuwing umaga. 4Kaya pumunta kay Moises ang mga nagtatrabaho sa Tolda at nagsabi, 5“Sobra na sa kinakailangan ang dinadala ng mga tao para sa gawaing iniutos ng Panginoon na gawin.”

6Kaya ipinadala ni Moises ang utos na ito sa buong kampo: “Huwag na kayong maghahandog para sa pagpapatayo ng Toldang Sambahan.” Kaya tumigil na ang mga tao sa pagdadala ng mga handog nila, 7dahil sobra-sobra na ang ibinigay nila para sa lahat ng gawain sa Tolda.

Ang Pagpapatayo ng Toldang Sambahan

(Exo. 26:1-37)

8Ang lahat ng mahuhusay magtrabaho ang gagawa ng Toldang Sambahan. Ang mga gagamitin sa paggawa nito ay sampung piraso ng pinong telang linen na may lanang kulay asul, ube at pula. At paburdahan ito ng kerubin sa mahuhusay na mambuburda. 9Ang bawat tela ay may haba na 42 talampakan at may lapad na anim na talampakan. 10Pagtatahi-tahiin nila ito ng tiglilima. 11Gumawa sila ng parang singsing na telang asul at inihanay sa bawat gilid ng pinagdugtong na mga tela; 12tig-50 ang ikinabit sa bawat dulo at magkaharap ito. 13Gumawa rin sila ng 50 kawit na ginto para mapagsama ang mga parang singsing ng gilid ng pinagdugtong na mga tela. Sa pamamagitan nito, magagawa ang Toldang Sambahan.

14Kaya gumawa silang talukbong ang Tolda. Labing-isang pirasong tela na gawa sa balahibo ng kambing ang gagamitin sa paggawa nito. 15May haba na 45 talampakan ang bawat tela at may anim na talampakan ang lapad. 16Pinagdugtong-dugtong nila ang limang tela, at ganoon din ang ginawa nila sa natirang anim. 17Nilagyan nila ng 50 parang singsing ang bawat gilid ng pinagdugtong na mga tela, 18at ikinabit nila ang 50 tansong kawit.

19Ang ibabaw ng talukbong nito ay papatungan ng balat ng lalaking tupa na kinulayan ng pula, at papatungan din ng magandang klase ng balat.

20Pagkatapos, gumawa sila ng balangkas ng Tolda. Ang ginamit nila ay tabla ng akasya. 21Ang haba ng bawat tabla ay 15 talampakan at dalawang talampakan ang lapad. 22Ang bawat tabla ay nilagyan ng dalawang mitsa36:22 mitsa: sa Ingles, “tenon.” para maidugtong ito sa isa pang tabla. Ganito ang ginawa nila sa bawat tabla. 23Ang 20 sa tablang ito ay ginamit nila na pangbalangkas sa timog na bahagi ng Tolda. 24Ang mga tabla ay isinuksok nila sa 40 pundasyong pilak – dalawang pundasyon sa bawat tabla. 25Ang hilagang bahagi ng Tolda ay ginamitan din ng 20 tabla, 26at isinuksok din sa 40 pundasyong pilak – dalawang pundasyon bawat tabla. 27Ang kanlurang bahagi ng Tolda ay ginamitan nila ng anim na tabla, 28at dalawang tabla sa mga gilid nito. 29Ang mga tabla sa sulok ay naikabit nang maayos mula sa ilalim hanggang sa itaas sa pamamagitan ng isang argolya. Ganito rin ang ginawa nila sa dalawang tabla sa mga sulok. 30Kaya may walong tabla sa bahaging ito ng Tolda, at nakasuksok ito sa 16 na pundasyong pilak – dalawang pundasyon sa bawat tabla.

31Gumawa rin sila ng mga akasyang biga – lima para sa bahaging hilaga ng Tolda, 32lima rin sa bahaging timog, at lima pa rin sa bahaging kanluran, sa likod ng Tolda. 33Ang biga sa gitna ng balangkas ay inilagay nila mula sa dulo ng Tolda papunta sa kabilang dulo nito. 34Binalutan nila ng ginto ang mga tabla at nilagyan ng argolyang36:34 argolya: korteng singsing. Ito rin ang nasa 37:3. ginto na siyang humahawak sa mga tabla. Binalutan din nila ng ginto ang mga biga.

35Gumawa rin sila ng kurtina na mula sa pinong telang linen na binurdahan gamit ang lanang kulay asul, ube at pula. At maayos na nabuburdahan ng larawan ng kerubin. 36Gumawa rin sila ng apat na haligi ng akasya na may mga kawit na ginto, at ikinabit nila roon ang kurtina. Ang apat na haligi ay nakasuksok sa apat na pundasyong pilak. 37Gumawa sila ng isa pang kurtina para sa pintuan ng Toldang Sambahan. Pinong telang linen rin ito na binurdahan gamit ang lanang kulay asul, ube at pula. At napakaganda ng pagkakaburda nito. 38Gumawa rin sila ng limang haligi na may mga kawit, at ikinabit nila rito ang kurtina. Ang mga haliging itoʼy nababalutan ng ginto pati na ang mga ulo at baras nito, at nakasuksok ito sa limang pundasyong tanso.
