Exodus 35:4-29

4And Moses said to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, “This is the thing which the Lord has commanded:

5‘Take from among you an offering to the Lord. Whoever has a willing heart, let him bring it as the Lord’s offering: gold, silver, and bronze,

6blue, purple, and scarlet fabric, fine linen, goats’ hair,

7and rams’ skins dyed red, and skins of porpoises, and acacia wood,

8and [olive] oil for the lighting, and balsam for the anointing oil, and for the fragrant incense,

9and onyx stones and other stones to be set for the ephod and the breastpiece.

10‘Let every skilled and talented man among you come, and make everything that the Lord has commanded:

11the tabernacle (sacred dwelling of God), its tent and its covering, its hooks, its boards, its bars, its pillars, and its sockets;

12the ark [of the covenant] and its carrying poles, with the mercy seat and the veil (partition curtain) of the screen [to hang between the Holy Place and the Holy of Holies];

13the table and its carrying poles, and all its utensils, and the bread of the [divine] Presence (showbread);

14the lampstand also for the light and its utensils and its lamps, and the oil for the light;

15and the altar of incense and its carrying poles, the anointing oil and the fragrant incense, the screen (curtain) for the doorway at the entrance of the tabernacle;

16the altar of burnt offering with its bronze grating, its carrying poles, and all its utensils, the wash basin and its base (stand);

17the court’s curtains, its support poles and their sockets, and the curtain for the gate of the courtyard;

18the pegs of the tabernacle and the pegs of the court and their cords;

19the finely-woven garments for ministering in the Holy Place, the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments for his sons, to minister as priests.’ ”

20Then all the congregation of the Israelites left Moses’ presence.

21Everyone whose heart stirred him and everyone whose spirit moved him came and brought the Lord’s offering to be used for the Tent of Meeting, for all its service, and for the holy garments.

22Then all whose hearts moved them, both men and women, came and brought brooches, earrings or nose rings, signet rings, and necklaces, all jewels of gold; everyone bringing an offering of gold to the Lord.

23Every man who had in his possession blue or purple or scarlet fabric, and fine linen, and goats’ hair, and rams’ skins dyed red and porpoise skins, brought them.

24Everyone who could make an offering of silver or bronze brought it as the Lord’s offering; every man who had in his possession acacia wood for any work of the service brought it.

25All the skilled and talented women spun thread with their hands, and brought what they had spun, blue and purple and scarlet fabric and fine linen.

26All the women whose heart stirred with a skill spun the goats’ hair.

27The leaders brought onyx stones and other stones to be put in settings for the ephod and for the breastpiece,

28and spice and [olive] oil for the light and for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense.

29The Israelites, all the men and women whose heart moved them to bring material for all the work which the Lord had commanded through Moses to be done, brought a freewill (voluntary) offering to the Lord.
