American Standard Version

1And Jehovah spake unto MosesH4872, sayingH559, 2SeeH7200, I have calledH7121 by nameH8034 BezalelH1212 the sonH1121 of UriH221, the sonH1121 of HurH2354, of the tribeH4294 of JudahH3063: 3and I have filledH4390 him with the SpiritH7307 of GodH430, in wisdomH2451, and in understandingH8394, and in knowledgeH1847, and in all manner of workmanshipH4399, 4to devise skilful works, to work in goldH2091, and in silverH3701, and in brass, 5and in cutting of stonesH68 for setting, and in carving of woodH6086, to workH4399 in all manner of workmanshipH4399. 6And I, behold, I have appointed with him OholiabH171, the sonH1121 of AhisamachH294, of the tribeH4294 of DanH1835; and in the heartH3820 of all that are wise-hearted I have putH5414 wisdomH2451, that they may makeH5414 all that I have commandedH6680 thee: 7the tentH168 of meetingH4150, and the arkH727 of the testimonyH5715, and the mercy-seat that is thereupon, and all the furniture of the TentH168, 8and the tableH7979 and its vesselsH3627, and the pureH2889 candlestick with all its vesselsH3627, and the altarH4196 of incenseH7004, 9and the altarH4196 of burnt-offering with all its vesselsH3627, and the laverH3595 and its baseH3653, 10and the finely wrought garmentsH899, and the holyH6944 garmentsH899 for AaronH175 the priestH3548, and the garmentsH899 of his sonsH1121, to minister in the priest’sH3548 office, 11and the anointingH4888 oilH8081, and the incenseH7004 of sweet spices for the holyH6944 placeH6944: according to all that I have commandedH6680 thee shall they do.

12And Jehovah spake unto MosesH4872, sayingH559, 13SpeakH1696 thou also unto the children of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, Verily ye shall keepH8104 my sabbathsH7676: for it is a signH226 between me and you throughout your generationsH1755; that ye may knowH3045 that I am Jehovah who sanctifieth you. 14Ye shall keepH8104 the sabbathH7676 therefore; for it is holyH6944 unto you: every one that profaneth it shall surely be putH4191 to deathH4191; for whosoever doeth any workH4399 therein, that soulH5315 shall be cutH3772 off from among his peopleH5971. 15SixH8337 daysH3117 shall workH4399 be done, but on the seventhH7637 dayH3117 is a sabbathH7676 of solemn rest, holyH6944 to Jehovah: whosoever doeth any workH4399 on the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, he shall surely be putH4191 to deathH4191. 16Wherefore the children of IsraelH3478 shall keepH8104 the sabbathH7676, to observeH8104 the sabbathH7676 throughout their generationsH1755, for a perpetual covenantH1285. 17It is a signH226 between me and the children of IsraelH3478 for everH5769: for in sixH8337 daysH3117 Jehovah madeH6213 heavenH8064 and earthH776, and on the seventhH7637 dayH3117 he restedH7673, and was refreshedH5314.

18And he gaveH5414 unto MosesH4872, when he had madeH5414 an endH3615 of communing with him upon mount SinaiH5514, the twoH8147 tables of the testimonyH5715, tables of stoneH68, writtenH3789 with the fingerH676 of GodH430.
