Exodus 25

Ἔξοδος

1 ΚΑΙ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων·

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

2 εἰπὸν τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραήλ, καὶ λάβετε ἀπαρχὰς παρὰ πάντων, οἷς ἂν δόξῃ τῇ καρδίᾳ, καὶ λήψεσθε τὰς ἀπαρχάς μου.

Speak to the children of Israel, and take first fruits of all, who may be disposed in their heart to give; and you⌃ shall take my first fruits.

3 καὶ αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ ἀπαρχή, ἣν λήψεσθε παρ᾿ αὐτῶν· χρυσίον καὶ ἀργύριον καὶ χαλκὸν

And this is the offering which you⌃ shall take of them; gold and silver and brass,

4 καὶ ὑάκινθον καὶ πορφύραν καὶ κόκκινον διπλοῦν καὶ βύσσον κεκλωσμένην καὶ τρίχας αἰγείας

and blue, and purple, and double scarlet, and fine spun linen, and goats' hair,

5 καὶ δέρματα κριῶν ἠρυθροδανωμένα καὶ δέρματα ὑακίνθινα καὶ ξύλα ἄσηπτα

and rams' skins dyed red, and blue skins, and incorruptible wood,

and oil for the light, incense for anointing oil, and for the composition of incense, (Brenton's 25:6, which the Greek of this edition does not have)

6 καὶ λίθους σαρδίου καὶ λίθους εἰς τὴν γλυφὴν εἰς τὴν ἐπωμίδα καὶ τὸν ποδήρη.

and sardius stones, and stones for the carved work of the breast-plate, and the full-length robe. (verse 7 in Brenton's English)

7 καὶ ποιήσεις μοι ἁγίασμα, καὶ ὀφθήσομαι ἐν ὑμῖν·

And you shall make me a sanctuary, and I will appear amongst you. (verse 8 in Brenton's English)

8 καὶ ποιήσεις μοι κατὰ πάντα ὅσα σοι δεικνύω ἐν τῷ ὄρει, τὸ παράδειγμα τῆς σκηνῆς καὶ τὸ παράδειγμα πάντων τῶν σκευῶν αὐτῆς· οὕτω ποιήσεις.

And you shall make for me according to all things which I show you in the mountain; even the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all its furniture: so shall you make it. (verse 9 in Brenton's English)

9 Καὶ ποιήσεις κιβωτὸν μαρτυρίου ἐκ ξύλων ἀσήπτων, δύο πήχεων καὶ ἡμίσους τὸ μῆκος καὶ πήχεως καὶ ἡμίσους τὸ πλάτος καὶ πήχεως καὶ ἡμίσους τὸ ὕψος.

And you shall make the ark of testimony of incorruptible wood; the length of two cubits and a half, and the breadth of a cubit and a half, and the height of a cubit and a half. (verse 10 in Brenton's English)

10 καὶ καταχρυσώσεις αὐτὴν χρυσίῳ καθαρῷ, ἔσωθεν καὶ ἔξωθεν χρυσώσεις αὐτήν· καὶ ποιήσεις αὐτῇ κυμάτια χρυσᾶ στρεπτὰ κύκλῳ.

And you shall gild it with pure gold, you shall gild it within and without; and you shall make for it golden wreaths twisted round about. (verse 11 in Brenton's English)

11 καὶ ἐλάσεις αὐτῇ τέσσαρας δακτυλίους χρυσοῦς καὶ ἐπιθήσεις ἐπὶ τὰ τέσσαρα κλίτη, δύο δακτυλίους ἐπὶ τὸ κλίτος τὸ ἓν καὶ δύο δακτυλίους ἐπὶ τὸ κλίτος τὸ δεύτερον.

And you shall cast for it four golden rings, and shall put them on the four sides; two rings on the one side, and two rings on the other side. (verse 12 in Brenton's English)

12 ποιήσεις δὲ ἀναφορεῖς ξύλα ἄσηπτα καὶ καταχρυσώσεις αὐτὰ χρυσίῳ·

And you shall make staves [of] incorruptible wood, and shall gild them with gold. (verse 13 in Brenton's English)

13 καὶ εἰσάξεις τοὺς ἀναφορεῖς εἰς τοὺς δακτυλίους τοὺς ἐν τοῖς κλίτεσι τῆς κιβωτοῦ αἴρειν τὴν κιβωτὸν ἐν αὐτοῖς·

And you shall put the staves into the rings on the sides of the ark, to bear the ark with them. (verse 14 in Brenton's English)

14 ἐν τοῖς δακτυλίοις τῆς κιβωτοῦ ἔσονται οἱ ἀναφορεῖς ἀκίνητοι.

The staves shall remain fixed in the rings of the ark. (verse 15 in Brenton's English)

15 καὶ ἐμβαλεῖς εἰς τὴν κιβωτὸν τὰ μαρτύρια, ἃ ἂν δῷ σοι.

And you shall put into the ark the testimonies which I shall give you. (verse 16 in Brenton's English)

16 καὶ ποιήσεις ἱλαστήριον ἐπίθεμα χρυσίου καθαροῦ, δύο πήχεων καὶ ἡμίσους τὸ μῆκος καί πήχεως καὶ ἡμίσους τὸ πλάτος.

And you shall make a propitiatory, a lid of pure gold; the length of two cubits and a half, and the breadth of a cubit and a half. (verse 17 in Brenton's English)

And you shall make two cherubs graven in gold, and you shall put them on both sides of the propitiatory. (verse 18 in Brenton's English)

18 ποιηθήσονται Χεροὺβ εἷς ἐκ τοῦ κλίτους τούτου καὶ Χεροὺβ εἷς ἐκ τοῦ κλίτους τοῦ δευτέρου τοῦ ἱλαστηρίου· καὶ ποιήσεις τοὺς δύο Χερουβὶμ ἐπὶ τὰ δύο κλίτη.

They shall be made, one cherub on this side, and another cherub on the other side of the propitiatory; and you shall make the two cherubs on the two sides. (verse 19 in Brenton's English)

19 ἔσονται οἱ Χερουβὶμ ἐκτείνοντες τὰς πτέρυγας ἐπάνωθεν, συσκιάζοντες ἐν ταῖς πτέρυξιν αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τοῦ ἱλαστηρίου, καὶ τὰ πρόσωπα αὐτῶν εἰς ἄλληλα· εἰς τὸ ἱλαστήριον ἔσονται τὰ πρόσωπα τῶν Χερουβίμ.

The cherubs shall stretch forth their wings above, overshadowing the propitiatory with their wings; and their faces shall be towards each other, the faces of the cherubs shall be towards the propitiatory. (verse 20 in Brenton's English)

20 καὶ ἐπιθήσεις τὸ ἱλαστήριον ἐπὶ τὴν κιβωτὸν ἄνωθεν· καὶ εἰς τὴν κιβωτὸν ἐμβαλεῖς τὰ μαρτύρια, ἃ ἂν δῷ σοι.

And you shall set the propitiatory on the ark above, and you shall put into the ark the testimonies which I shall give you. (verse 21 in Brenton's English)

21 καὶ γνωσθήσομαί σοι ἐκεῖθεν καὶ λαλήσω σοι ἄνωθεν τοῦ ἱλαστηρίου ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν δύο Χερουβὶμ τῶν ὄντων ἐπὶ τῆς κιβωτοῦ τοῦ μαρτυρίου καὶ κατὰ πάντα, ὅσα ἐὰν ἐντείλωμαί σοι πρὸς τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραήλ.

And I will make myself known to you from thence, and I will speak to you above the propitiatory between the two cherubs, which are upon the ark of testimony, even in all things which I shall charge you concerning the children of Israel. (verse 22 in Brenton's English)

And you shall make a candlestick of pure gold; you shall make the candlestick of graven work: its stem and its branches, and its bowls and its knops and its lilies shall be of one piece. (verse 31 in Brenton's English)

31 ἓξ δὲ καλαμίσκοι ἐκπορευόμενοι ἐκ πλαγίων, τρεῖς καλαμίσκοι τῆς λυχνίας ἐκ τοῦ κλίτους τοῦ ἑνὸς αὐτῆς καὶ τρεῖς καλαμίσκοι τῆς λυχνίας ἐκ τοῦ κλίτους τοῦ δευτέρου.

And six branches proceeding sideways, three branches of the candlestick from one side of it, and three branches of the candlestick from the other side. (verse 32 in Brenton's English)

32 καὶ τρεῖς κρατῆρες ἐκτετυπωμένοι καρυΐσκους ἐν τῷ ἑνὶ καλαμίσκῳ, σφαιρωτὴρ καὶ κρίνον· οὕτω τοῖς ἓξ καλαμίσκοις τοῖς ἐκπορευομένοις ἐκ τῆς λυχνίας.

And three bowls fashioned like almonds, on each branch a knop and a lily; so to the six branches proceeding from the candlestick, (verse 33 in Brenton's English)

A knop under two branches out of it, and a knop under four branches out of it; so to the six branches proceeding from the candlestick; and in the candlestick four bowls fashioned like almonds. (verse 35 in Brenton's English)
