Exodus 31:1-18, NLT
Exodus 31
Craftsmen: Bezalel and Oholiab
1Then the Lord said to Moses,
6“And I have personally appointed Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, to be his assistant. Moreover, I have given special skill to all the gifted craftsmen so they can make all the things I have commanded you to make:
7the Tabernacle;*31:7a Hebrew the Tent of Meeting.
the Ark of the Covenant;*31:7b Hebrew the Ark of the Testimony.
the Ark’s cover—the place of atonement;
all the furnishings of the Tabernacle;
8the table and its utensils;
the pure gold lampstand with all its accessories;
the incense altar;
9the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils;
the washbasin with its stand;
10the beautifully stitched garments—the sacred garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments for his sons to wear as they minister as priests;
11the anointing oil;
the fragrant incense for the Holy Place.
The craftsmen must make everything as I have commanded you.”
Instructions for the Sabbath
12The Lord then gave these instructions to Moses:
18When the Lord finished speaking with Moses on Mount Sinai, he gave him the two stone tablets inscribed with the terms of the covenant,*31:18 Hebrew the two tablets of the Testimony; see note on 25:16. written by the finger of God.
