Exodus 25:1-9

1The Lord said to Moses,

2“Tell the people of Israel to bring me their sacred offerings. Accept the contributions from all whose hearts are moved to offer them.

3Here is a list of sacred offerings you may accept from them: gold, silver, and bronze;

4blue, purple, and scarlet thread; fine linen and goat hair for cloth;

5tanned ram skins and fine goatskin leather; acacia wood;

6olive oil for the lamps; spices for the anointing oil and the fragrant incense;

7onyx stones, and other gemstones to be set in the ephod and the priest’s chestpiece.

8“Have the people of Israel build me a holy sanctuary so I can live among them.

9You must build this Tabernacle and its furnishings exactly according to the pattern I will show you.
