Exodus 35

Ἔξοδος

1 ΚΑΙ συνήθροισε Μωυσῆς πᾶσαν συναγωγὴν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ καὶ εἶπεν· οὗτοι οἱ λόγοι, οὓς εἶπε Κύριος ποιῆσαι αὐτούς.

And Moses gathered all the congregation of the children of Israel together, and said, These are the words which the Lord has spoken for [you] to do them.

2 ἓξ ἡμέρας ποιήσεις ἔργα, τῇ δὲ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ἑβδόμῃ κατάπαυσις, ἅγια σάββατα, ἀνάπαυσις Κυρίῳ· πᾶς ὁ ποιῶν ἔργον ἐν αὐτῇ τελευτάτω.

Six days shall you perform works, but on the seventh day [shall be] rest—a holy sabbath—a rest for the Lord: every one that does work on it, let him die.

3 οὐ καύσετε πῦρ ἐν πάσῃ κατοικίᾳ ὑμῶν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῶν σαββάτων· ἐγὼ Κύριος.

You⌃ shall not burn a fire in any of your dwellings on the sabbath-day; I [am] the Lord.

4 Καὶ εἶπε Μωυσῆς πρὸς πᾶσαν συναγωγὴν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ λέγων· τοῦτο τὸ ρῆμα, ὃ συνέταξε Κύριος λέγων·

And Moses spoke to all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying, This [is] the thing which the Lord has appointed you, saying,

5 λάβετε παρ᾿ ὑμῶν αὐτῶν ἀφαίρεμα Κυρίῳ· πᾶς ὁ καταδεχόμενος τῇ καρδίᾳ οἴσουσι τὰς ἀπαρχὰς Κυρίῳ, χρυσίον, ἀργύριον, χαλκόν,

Take of yourselves an offering for the Lord: every one that engages in his heart shall bring the first fruits to the Lord; gold, silver, brass,

6 ὑάκινθον, πορφύραν, κόκκινον διπλοῦν διανενησμένον καὶ βύσσον κεκλωσμένην καὶ τρίχας αἰγείας

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

7 καὶ δέρματα κριῶν ἠρυθροδανωμένα καὶ δέρματα ὑακίνθινα καὶ ξύλα ἄσηπτα.

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

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

and sardine stones, and stones for engraving for the shoulder-piece and full-length robe.

9 καὶ πᾶς σοφὸς τῇ καρδίᾳ ἐν ὑμῖν ἐλθὼν ἐργαζέσθω πάντα, ὅσα συνέταξε Κύριος·

And every man that is wise in heart amongst you, let him come and work all things whatever the Lord has commanded.

10 τὴν σκηνὴν καὶ τὰ παραρύματα καὶ τὰ κατακαλύμματα καὶ τά διατόνια καὶ τοὺς μοχλοὺς καὶ τοὺς στύλους

The tabernacle, and the cords, and the coverings, and the rings, and the bars, and the posts,

11 καὶ τὴν κιβωτὸν τοῦ μαρτυρίου καὶ τοὺς ἀναφορεῖς αὐτῆς καὶ τὸ ἱλαστήριον αὐτῆς καὶ τὸ καταπέτασμα

and the ark of the testimony, and its staves, and its propitiatory, and the veil,

12 καὶ τὰ ἱστία τῆς αὐλῆς καὶ τοὺς στύλους αὐτῆς

and the curtains of the court, and its posts,

13 καὶ τοὺς λίθους τοὺς τῆς σμαράγδου

and the emerald stones,

14 καὶ τὸ θυμίαμα καὶ τὸ ἔλαιον τοῦ χρίσματος

and the incense, and the anointing oil,

15 καὶ τὴν τράπεζαν καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη αὐτῆς

and the table and all its furniture,

16 καὶ τὴν λυχνίαν τοῦ φωτὸς καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη αὐτῆς

and the candlestick for the light and all its furniture,

17 καὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη αὐτοῦ

and the altar and all its furniture;

18 καὶ τὰς στολὰς τὰς ἁγίας Ἀαρὼν τοῦ ἱερέως καὶ τὰς στολάς, ἐν αἷς λειτουργήσουσιν ἐν αὐταῖς,

and the holy garments of Aaron the priest, and the garments in which they shall do service; and the garments of priesthood for the sons of Aaron and the anointing oil, and the compound incense. (verse 35:18-19 in Brenton's English)

19 καὶ τοὺς χιτῶνας τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἀαρὼν τῆς ἱερατείας καὶ τὸ ἔλαιον τοῦ χρίσματος καὶ τὸ θυμίαμα τῆς συνθέσεως.

In the English, this verse is part of verse 18.

20 καὶ ἐξῆλθε πᾶσα συναγωγὴ υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ ἀπὸ Μωυσῆ

And all the congregation of the children of Israel went out from Moses. And they brought, they whose heart prompted them, and they to whoever it seemed good in their mind, each and offering:

21 καὶ ἤνεγκαν ἕκαστος, ὧν ἔφερεν ἡ καρδία αὐτῶν, καὶ ὅσοις ἔδοξε τῇ ψυχῇ αὐτῶν, ἤνεγκαν ἀφαίρεμα Κυρίῳ εἰς πάντα τὰ ἔργα τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου καὶ εἰς πάντα τὰ κάτεργα αὐτῆς, καὶ εἰς πάσας τὰς στολὰς τοῦ ἁγίου.

and they brought an offering to the Lord for all the works of the tabernacle of witness, and all its services, and for all the robes of the sanctuary.

22 καὶ ἤνεγκαν οἱ ἄνδρες παρὰ τῶν γυναικῶν, πᾶς ᾧ ἔδοξε τῇ διανοίᾳ, ἤνεγκαν σφραγῖδας καὶ ἐνώτια καὶ δακτυλίους καὶ ἐμπλόκια καὶ περιδέξια, πᾶν σκεῦος χρυσοῦν, καὶ πάντες ὅσοι ἤνεγκαν ἀφαιρέματα χρυσίου Κυρίῳ.

And the men, even every one to whom it seemed good in his heart, brought from the women, [even] brought seals and ear-rings, and finger-rings, and necklaces, and bracelets, every article of gold.

23 καὶ παρ᾿ ᾧ εὑρέθη βύσσος καὶ δέρματα ὑακίνθινα καὶ δέρματα κριῶν ἠρυθροδανωμένα, ἤνεγκαν.

And all as many as brought ornaments of gold to the Lord, and with whoever fine linen was found; and they brought skins [dyed] blue, and rams' skins dyed red.

24 καὶ πᾶς ὁ ἀφαιρῶν ἀφαίρεμα, ἤνεγκαν ἀργύριον καὶ χαλκόν, τὰ ἀφαιρέματα Κυρίῳ, καὶ παρ᾿ οἷς εὑρέθη ξύλα ἄσηπτα εἰς πάντα τὰ ἔργα τῆς παρασκευῆς ἤνεγκαν.

And every one that offered an offering brought silver and brass, the offerings to the Lord; and [they] with whom was found incorruptible wood; and they brought [offerings] for all the works of the preparation.

25 καὶ πᾶσα γυνὴ σοφὴ τῇ διανοίᾳ ταῖς χερσὶ νήθειν ἤνεγκαν νενησμένα, τὴν ὑάκινθον καὶ τὴν πορφύραν καὶ τὸ κόκκινον καὶ τὴν βύσσον·

And every woman skilled in her heart to spin with her hands, brought spun [articles], the blue, and purple, and scarlet and fine linen.

26 καὶ πᾶσαι αἱ γυναῖκες, αἷς ἔδοξε τῇ διανοίᾳ αὐτῶν ἐν σοφίᾳ, ἔνησαν τὰς τρίχας τὰς αἰγείας.

And all the women to whom it seemed good in their heart in their wisdom, spun the goats' hair.

27 καὶ οἱ ἄρχοντες ἤνεγκαν τοὺς λίθους τῆς σμαράγδου καὶ τοὺς λίθους τῆς πληρώσεως εἰς τὴν ἐπωμίδα καὶ τὸ λογεῖον

And the rulers brought the emerald stones, and the stones for setting in the ephod, and the oracle,

28 καὶ τὰς συνθέσεις, καὶ εἰς τὸ ἔλαιον τῆς χρίσεως καὶ τὴν σύνθεσιν τοῦ θυμιάματος.

and the compounds both for the anointing oil, and the composition of the incense.

29 καὶ πᾶς ἀνὴρ καὶ γυνή, ὧν ἔφερεν ἡ διάνοια αὐτῶν εἰσελθόντας ποιεῖν πάντα τὰ ἔργα, ὅσα συνέταξε Κύριος ποιῆσαι αὐτὰ διά Μωυσῆ, ἤνεγκαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἀφαίρεμα Κυρίῳ.

And every man and woman whose mind inclined them to come in and do all the works as many as the Lord appointed them to do by Moses—[they] the children of Israel brought an offering to the Lord.

30 Καὶ εἶπε Μωυσῆς τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραήλ· ἰδοὺ ἀνακέκληκεν ὁ Θεὸς ἐξ ὀνόματος τὸν Βεσελεὴλ τὸν τοῦ Οὐρίου τὸν Ὤρ, ἐκ τῆς φυλῆς Ἰούδα,

And Moses said to the children of Israel, Behold, God has called by name Beseleel the [son] of Urias the [son of] Or, of the tribe of Juda,

31 καὶ ἐνέπλησεν αὐτὸν πνεῦμα θεῖον σοφίας καὶ συνέσεως καὶ ἐπιστήμης πάντων

and has filled him with a divine spirit of wisdom and understanding, and knowledge of all things,

32 ἀρχιτεκτονεῖν κατὰ πάντα τὰ ἔργα τῆς ἀρχιτεκτονίας, ποιεῖν τὸ χρυσίον καὶ τὸ ἀργύριον καὶ τὸν χαλκὸν

to labour skilfully in all works of cunning workmanship, to form the gold and the silver and the brass,

33 καὶ λιθουργῆσαι τὸν λίθον καὶ κατεργάζεσθαι τὰ ξύλα καὶ ποιεῖν ἐν παντὶ ἔργῳ σοφίας·

and to work in stone, and to fashion the wood, and to work in every work of wisdom.

34 καὶ προβιβάσαι γε ἔδωκεν ἐν τῇ διανοίᾳ αὐτῷ τε καὶ τῷ Ἐλιὰβ τῷ τοῦ Ἀχισαμάχ, ἐκ φυλῆς Δάν.

And [God] gave improvement in understanding both to him, and to Eliab the [son] of Achisamach of the tribe of Dan.

35 καὶ ἐνέπλησεν αὐτοὺς σοφίας, συνέσεως, διανοίας, πάντα συνιέναι ποιῆσαι τὰ ἔργα τοῦ ἁγίου καὶ τὰ ὑφαντὰ καὶ ποικιλτὰ ὑφᾶναι τῷ κοκκίνῳ καὶ τῇ βύσσῳ, ποιεῖν πᾶν ἔργον ἀρχιτεκτονίας ποικιλίας.

And [God] filled them with wisdom, understanding [and] perception, to understand to work all the works of the sanctuary, and to weave the woven and embroidered work with scarlet and fine linen, to do all work of curious workmanship [and] embroidery.
