Exodus 36

NEW JERUSALEM	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 'Bezalel, Oholiab and al the men whom Yahweh has endowed with the skil and knowledge to knowhow to carry out al the work to be done on the sanctuary, wil do exactly as Yahweh has ordered.'	1 Beseleel, therefore, and Ooliab, and every wise man, to whom the Lord gave wisdom and understanding, to know how to work artificially, made the things that are necessary for the uses of the sanctuary, and which the Lord commanded.
2 Moses then summoned Bezalel, Oholiab and al the skil ed men whose hearts Yahweh had endowedwith skil , al whose heart stirred them to come forward and do the work.	2 And when Moses had called them, and every skilful man, to whom the Lord had given wisdom, and such as of their own accord had offered themselves to the making of the work,
3 From Moses they received everything that the Israelites had brought as contributions for carrying outthe work of building the sanctuary, and, as they went on bringing their offerings every morning,	3 He delivered all the offerings of the children of Israel unto them. And while they were earnest about the work, the people daily in the morning offered their vows.
4 the skil ed men who were doing all the work for the sanctuary, al left their particular work	4 Whereupon the workmen being constrained to come,
5 and said to Moses, 'The people are bringing more than is needed for the work Yahweh has ordered tobe done.'	5 Said to Moses: The people offereth more than is necessary.
6 Moses then gave the order and proclamation was made throughout the camp, 'No one, whether manor woman, must do anything more towards contributing for the sanctuary.' So the people were prevented frombringing any more,	6 Moses therefore commanded proclamation to be made by the crier's voice: Let neither man nor woman offer any more for the work of the sanctuary. And so they ceased from offering gifts,
7 for the material to hand was enough, and more than enough, to complete al the work.	7 Because the things that were offered did suffice, and were too much.
8 Al the most skil ed of the men doing the work made the Dwelling. Moses made it with ten sheets offinely woven linen, dyed violet-purple, red-purple and crimson and embroidered with great winged creatures.	8 And all the men that were wise of heart, to accomplish the work of the tabernacle, made ten curtains of twisted fine linen, and violet, and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, with varied work, and the art of embroidering:
9 The length of a single sheet was twenty-eight cubits, its width four cubits, al the sheets being of thesame size.	9 The length of one curtain was twenty-eight cubits, and the breadth four: all the curtains were of the same size.
10 He joined five of the sheets to one another, and the other five sheets to one another.	10 And he joined five curtains, one to another, and the other five he coupled one to another.
11 He made violet loops along the edge of the first sheet, at the end of the set, and did the same alongthe edge of the last sheet in the other set.	11 He made also loops of violet in the edge of the curtain on both sides, and in the edge of the other curtain in like manner,
12 He made fifty loops on the first sheet and fifty loops along the outer edge of the sheet of the secondset, the loops corresponding to one another.	12 That the loops might meet on against another, and might be joined each with the other.
13 He made fifty gold clasps and joined the sheets together with the clasps. In this way the Dwel ing wasa unified whole.	13 Whereupon also he cast fifty rings of gold, that might catch the loops of the curtains, and they might be made one tabernacle.
14 Next he made sheets of goats' hair for the tent over the Dwel ing; he made eleven of these.	14 He made also eleven curtains of goats' hair, to cover the roof of the tabernacle:
15 The length of a single sheet was thirty cubits and its width four cubits; the eleven sheets were al ofthe same size.	15 One curtain was thirty cubits long and four cubits broad: all the curtains were of one measure.
16 He joined five sheets together into one set and six sheets into another.	16 Five of which he joined apart, and the other six apart.
17 He made fifty loops along the edge of the last sheet of the first set, and fifty loops along the edge ofthe sheet of the second set.	17 And he made fifty loops in the edge of one curtain, and fifty in the edge of another curtain, that they might be joined one to another.
18 He made fifty bronze clasps, to draw the tent together and make it a unified whole.	18 And fifty buckles of brass wherewith the roof might be knit together, that of all the curtains there might be made one covering.
19 And for the tent he made a cover of rams' skins dyed red, and a cover of fine leather over that.	19 He made also a cover for the tabernacle of rams' skins dyed red: and another cover over that of violet skins.
20 For the Dwelling he made vertical frames of acacia wood.	20 He made also the boards of the tabernacle of setim wood standing.
21 Each frame was ten cubits long and one and a half cubits wide.	21 The length of one board was ten cubits: and the breadth was one cubit and a half.
22 Each frame had twin tenons; this was how he made al the frames for the Dwelling.	22 There were two mortises throughout every board, that one might be joined to the other. And in this manner he made for all the boards of the tabernacle.
23 He made frames for the Dwel ing: twenty frames for the south side, to the south,	23 Of which twenty were at the south side southward,
24 and made forty silver sockets under the twenty frames, two sockets under one frame for its twotenons, two sockets under the next frame for its two tenons;	24 With forty sockets of silver, two sockets were put under one board on the two sides of the corners, where the mortises of the sides end in the corners.
25 and for the other side of the Dwel ing, the north side, twenty frames	25 At that side also of the tabernacle, that looketh toward the north, he made twenty boards.
26 and forty silver sockets, two sockets under one frame, two sockets under the next frame.	26 With forty sockets of silver, two sockets for every board.
27 For the back of the Dwel ing, on the west, he made six frames.	27 But against the west, to wit, at that side of the tabernacle, which looketh to the sea, he made six boards,
28 He also made two frames for the corners at the back of the Dwel ing;	28 And two others at each corner of the tabernacle behind:
29 these were coupled together at the bottom, staying so up to the top, to the level of the first ring; thishe did with the two frames forming the two corners.	29 Which were also joined from beneath unto the top, and went together into one joint. Thus he did on both sides at the corners:
30 Thus there were eight frames with their sixteen silver sockets; two sockets under each frame.	30 So there were in all eight boards and they had sixteen sockets of silver, to wit, two sockets under every board.
31 He made crossbars of acacia wood: five for the frames of the first side of the Dwel ing,	31 He made also bars of setim wood, five to hold together the boards of one side of the tabernacle,
32 five crossbars for the frames of the other side of the Dwel ing and five crossbars for the frames whichformed the back of the Dwel ing, to the west.	32 And five others to join together the boards of the other side: and besides these, five other bars at the west side of the tabernacle towards the sea.
33 He made the middle bar, to join the frames from one end to the other, halfway up.	33 He made also another bar, that might come by the midst of the boards from corner to corner.
34 He overlaid the frames with gold, made gold rings for them, through which to place the crossbars,and overlaid the crossbars with gold.	34 And the board works themselves he overlaid with gold, casting for them sockets of silver. And their rings he made of gold, through which the bars might be drawn: and he covered the bars themselves with plates of gold.
35 He made a curtain of finely woven linen, dyed violet-purple, red-purple and crimson and embroideredwith great winged creatures,	35 He made also a veil of violet, and purple, scarlet, and fine twisted linen, varied and distinguished with embroidery:
36 and for it he made four poles of acacia wood, overlaying them with gold, with golden hooks for them,for which he cast four sockets of silver.	36 And four pillars of setim wood, which with their heads be overlaid with gold, casting for them sockets of silver.
37 For the entrance to the tent he made a screen of finely woven linen embroidered with violet-purple,red-purple and crimson,	37 He made also a hanging in the entry of the tabernacle of violet, purple, scarlet, and fine twisted linen, with the work of an embroiderer.
38 as also the five columns for it and their hooks; he overlaid their capitals and rods with gold, but theirfive sockets were of bronze.	38 And five pillars with their heads, which he covered with gold, and their sockets he cast of brass.
