Exodus 35:25-35

25Every skilled woman spun with her hands and brought what she had spun—blue, purple or scarlet yarn or fine linen.

26And all the women who were willing and had the skill spun the goat hair.

27The leaders brought onyx stones and other gems to be mounted on the ephod and breastpiece.

28They also brought spices and olive oil for the light and for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense.

29All the Israelite men and women who were willing brought to the Lord freewill offerings for all the work the Lord through Moses had commanded them to do.

30Then Moses said to the Israelites, “See, the Lord has chosen Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah,

31and he has filled him with the Spirit of God, with wisdom, with understanding, with knowledge and with all kinds of skills—

32to make artistic designs for work in gold, silver and bronze,

33to cut and set stones, to work in wood and to engage in all kinds of artistic crafts.

34And he has given both him and Oholiab son of Ahisamak, of the tribe of Dan, the ability to teach others.

35He has filled them with skill to do all kinds of work as engravers, designers, embroiderers in blue, purple and scarlet yarn and fine linen, and weavers—all of them skilled workers and designers.
