Norādījums par sabatu
1 Mozus sasauca visu Israēla dēlu sapulci un teica tiem: “Šie ir vārdi, ko Kungs pavēlējis darīt, – 2 sešas dienas lai dara darbus, bet septītā diena lai jums ir svēta Kungam, sabats, kad jāpārtrauc darbs! Ikviens, kas tajā dienā darīs kādu darbu, lai mirst! 3 Neiededziet sabata dienā uguni nevienā savā mājvietā!”
Gatavošanās Saiešanas telts celšanai
(2Moz 25:1–92Moz 39:32–43)4 Un Mozus teica visai Israēla dēlu sapulcei: “Tā pavēlējis Kungs: 5 dodiet ikviens Kungam ziedojumus, ikviens, kam dāsna sirds, lai nes ziedojumu Kungam – zeltu, sudrabu un varu, 6 purpurzilu, purpura, sarkanu un vieglbalta lina audumu un kazu vilnu, 7 sarkanas aunu ādas, ģērētas ādas un akācijkoku, 8 eļļu gaismeklim un smaržas svaidāmajai eļļai un kvēpināmajām smaržzālēm, 9 oniksus un ieliekamos akmeņus efodam un krūšu uzliktnim. 10 Tie jūsu vidū, kas ir prasmīgi, lai nāk un taisa visu, ko Kungs pavēlējis, – 11 Mājokli un telti, pārsegu, āķus, dēļus, šķērskokus, stabus un pamatus, 12 šķirstu, tā nesamās kārtis, pārsegu un aizkarināmu priekškaru, 13 galdu un tā nesamās kārtis, un visus tā rīkus, un upurmaizes, 14 un gaismekli apgaismojumam, tā rīkus un eļļas lukturīšus, un eļļu gaismai, 15 un altāri kvēpināšanai un tā nesamās kārtis, un svaidāmo eļļu, un kvēpināmās smaržzāles, un durvju priekškaru Mājokļa durvīm, 16 un altāri sadedzināmajiem upuriem un vara režģi, nesamās kārtis un visus rīkus, katlu, kur mazgāties, un tā pamatu, 17 pagalma priekškarus, to stabus un pamatus, un priekškaru pagalma vārtiem, 18 mietiņus Mājoklim un mietiņus pagalmam, un auklas, 19 smalki austas drānas kalpošanai svētvietā, svētās drānas priesterim Āronam un drānas viņa dēliem, lai kalpo kā priesteri.”
Ziedojumi Saiešanas teltij
20 Visa Israēla dēlu sapulce devās projām no Mozus. 21 Un nāca visi, kurus sirds skubināja un kam devīgs gars, un nesa ziedojumu Kungam, lai taisītu Saiešanas telti, visas kalpošanas lietas un svētās drānas. 22 Nāca vīri ar sievām, visi, kam dāsna sirds, viņi nesa piekariņus un riņķus, zīmoggredzenus un rokassprādzes – visas zelta lietas – tā darīja ikviens, kas pienesa zelta veltījumu Kungam. 23 Ikviens, kam bija purpurzils, purpura, sarkans vai vieglbalta lina audums vai kazu vilna, vai sarkanas aunu ādas, vai ģērētas ādas, tas atnesa. 24 Ikviens, kam bija ziedojams sudrabs un varš, tas ziedoja Kungam, un katrs, kam bija akācijkoks, tas nesa to darbiem. 25 Un visas sievas, kam prasmīgas rokas, auda un atnesa, ko bija noaudušas no purpurzila, purpura, sarkana un vieglbalta lina auduma. 26 Un visas prasmīgās sievas auda kazu vilnu. 27 Vadoņi atnesa oniksus un ieliekamos akmeņus efodam un krūšu uzliktnim, 28 un smaržvielas un eļļu gaismeklim un svaidāmajai eļļai un kvēpināmās smaržzāles. 29 Visi vīri un sievas, kam devīga sirds, nesa visu, kas vajadzīgs darbiem, ko Kungs Mozum pavēlēja darīt, – tie Israēla dēli nesa labprātīgu upuri Kungam.
Becalēls un Āholīābs
(2Moz 31:1–11)30 Un Mozus teica Israēla dēliem: “Redziet, Kungs izvēlējās Becalēlu, Ūrī dēlu, Hūra dēlu no Jūdas cilts. 31 Un viņš to ir piepildījis ar Dieva Garu, gudrību un saprātu, ar atziņu un visādām mākām 32 izdomāt un darināt lietas zeltā, sudrabā un varā, 33 apstrādāt akmeni un likt to ietvarā, apstrādāt koku un veikt jebkuru amatu! 34 Viņš licis tiem sirdī spēju mācīt – viņam un Āholīābam, Ahīsāmāha dēlam, no Dāna cilts. 35 Viņš devis tiem gudru sirdi, ka tie spēj jebkuru amatu – gan grebēja, gan šuvēja no purpurzila, purpura, sarkana vai vieglbalta lina auduma, gan audēja – tie prot un izdomā visus darbus.
Laws for the Sabbath
1 Moses called together the people of Israel and told them that the Lord had said:
2 You have six days in which to do your work. But the seventh day must be dedicated to me, your Lord, as a day of rest. Whoever works on the Sabbath will be put to death. 3 Don't even build a cooking fire at home on the Sabbath.
Offerings for the Sacred Tent
(Exodus 25.1-9Exodus 35.10-19)4 Moses told the people of Israel that the Lord had said:
5 I will welcome an offering from anyone who wants to give something. You may bring gold, silver, or bronze; 6 blue, purple, or red wool; fine linen; goat hair; 7 tanned ram skin or fine leather; acacia wood; 8 olive oil for the lamp; sweet-smelling spices for the oil of dedication and for the incense; or 9 onyx stones or other gems for the sacred vest and breastpiece.
10 If you have any skills, you should use them to help make what I have commanded: 11 the sacred tent with its covering and hooks, its framework and crossbars, and its post and stands; 12 the sacred chest with its carrying poles, its place of mercy, and the curtain in front of it; 13 the table with its carrying poles and all that goes on it, including the sacred bread; 14 the lamp with its equipment and oil; 15 the incense altar with its carrying poles and sweet-smelling incense; the ordination oil; the curtain for the entrance to the sacred tent; 16 the altar for sacrifices with its bronze grating, its carrying poles, and its equipment; the large bronze bowl with its stand; 17 the curtains with the posts and stands that go around the courtyard and the curtain at the entrance; 18 the pegs and ropes for the tent and the courtyard; 19 and the finely woven priestly clothes for Aaron and his sons.
Gifts for the Lord
20 Moses finished speaking, and everyone left. 21 Then those who wanted to bring gifts to the Lord, brought them to be used for the sacred tent, the worship services, and the priestly clothes. 22 Men and women came willingly and gave all kinds of gold jewelry such as pins, earrings, rings, and necklaces. 23 Everyone brought their blue, purple, and red wool, their fine linen, and their cloth made of goat hair, as well as their ram skins dyed red and their fine leather. 24 Anyone who had silver or bronze or acacia wood brought it as a gift to the Lord.
25 The women who were good at weaving cloth brought the blue, purple, and red wool and the fine linen they had made. 26 And the women who knew how to make cloth from goat hair were glad to do so.
27 The leaders brought different kinds of jewels to be sewn on the special clothes and the breastpiece for the high priest. 28 They also brought sweet-smelling spices to be mixed with the incense and olive oil that were for the lamps and for ordaining the priests. 29 Moses had told the people what the Lord wanted them to do, and many of them decided to bring their gifts.
Bezalel and Oholiab
(Exodus 31.1-11)30 Moses said to the people of Israel:
The Lord has chosen Bezalel of the Judah tribe. 31-33 Not only has the Lord filled him with his Spirit, but he has given him wisdom and made him a skilled craftsman who can create objects of art with gold, silver, bronze, precious stones, and wood. 34 The Lord is urging him and Oholiab from the tribe of Dan to teach others. 35 And he has given them all kinds of artistic skills, including the ability to design and embroider with blue, purple, and red wool and to weave fine linen.
