Exodus 31 (WEBP)
[1] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
[2] “Behold, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.
[3] I have filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all kinds of workmanship,
[4] to devise skillful works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in bronze,
[5] and in cutting of stones for setting, and in carving of wood, to work in all kinds of workmanship.
[6] Behold, I myself have appointed with him Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan; and in the heart of all who are wise-hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded you:
[7] the Tent of Meeting, the ark of the covenant, the mercy seat that is on it, all the furniture of the Tent,
[8] the table and its vessels, the pure lamp stand with all its vessels, the altar of incense,
[9] the altar of burnt offering with all its vessels, the basin and its base,
[10] the finely worked garments—the holy garments for Aaron the priest, the garments of his sons to minister in the priest’s office—
[11] the anointing oil, and the incense of sweet spices for the holy place: according to all that I have commanded you they shall do.”
[12] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
[13] “Speak also to the children of Israel, saying, ‘Most certainly you shall keep my Sabbaths; for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations, that you may know that I am Yahweh who sanctifies you.
[14] You shall keep the Sabbath therefore, for it is holy to you. Everyone who profanes it shall surely be put to death; for whoever does any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
[15] Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest, holy to Yahweh. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day shall surely be put to death.
[16] Therefore the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant.
[17] It is a sign between me and the children of Israel forever; for in six days Yahweh made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.’ ”
[18] When he finished speaking with him on Mount Sinai, he gave Moses the two tablets of the covenant, stone tablets, written with God’s finger.

[2] See H7200 (8798), I have called H7121 (8804) by name H8034 Bezaleel H1212 the son H1121 of Uri H221, the son H1121 of Hur H2354, of the tribe H4294 of Judah H3063:
[3] And I have filled H4390 (8762) him with the spirit H7307 of God H430, in wisdom H2451, and in understanding H8394, and in knowledge H1847, and in all manner of workmanship H4399,
[4] To devise H2803 (8800) cunning works H4284, to work H6213 (8800) in gold H2091, and in silver H3701, and in brass H5178,
[5] And in cutting H2799 of stones H68, to set H4390 (8763) [them], and in carving H2799 of timber H6086, to work H6213 (8800) in all manner of workmanship H4399.
[6] And I, behold, I have given H5414 (8804) with him Aholiab H171, the son H1121 of Ahisamach H294, of the tribe H4294 of Dan H1835: and in the hearts H3820 of all that are wise H2450 hearted H3820 I have put H5414 (8804) wisdom H2451, that they may make H6213 (8804) all that I have commanded H6680 (8765) thee;
[7] The tabernacle H168 of the congregation H4150, and the ark H727 of the testimony H5715, and the mercy seat H3727 that [is] thereupon, and all the furniture H3627 of the tabernacle H168,
[8] And the table H7979 and his furniture H3627, and the pure H2889 candlestick H4501 with all his furniture H3627, and the altar H4196 of incense H7004,
[9] And the altar H4196 of burnt offering H5930 with all his furniture H3627, and the laver H3595 and his foot H3653,

[11] And the anointing H4888 oil H8081, and sweet H5561 incense H7004 for the holy H6944 [place]: according to all that I have commanded H6680 (8765) thee shall they do H6213 (8799).
[12] And the LORD H3068 spake H559 (8799) unto Moses H4872, saying H559 (8800),
[13] Speak H1696 (8761) thou also unto the children H1121 of Israel H3478, saying H559 (8800), Verily H389 my sabbaths H7676 ye shall keep H8104 (8799): for it [is] a sign H226 between me and you throughout your generations H1755; that [ye] may know H3045 (8800) that I [am] the LORD H3068 that doth sanctify H6942 (8764) you.
[14] Ye shall keep H8104 (8804) the sabbath H7676 therefore; for it [is] holy H6944 unto you: every one that defileth H2490 (8764) it shall surely H4191 (8800) be put to death H4191 (8714): for whosoever doeth H6213 (8802) [any] work H4399 therein, that soul H5315 shall be cut off H3772 (8738) from among H7130 his people H5971.
[15] Six H8337 days H3117 may work H4399 be done H6213 (8735); but in the seventh H7637 [is] the sabbath H7676 of rest H7677, holy H6944 to the LORD H3068: whosoever doeth H6213 (8802) [any] work H4399 in the sabbath H7676 day H3117, he shall surely H4191 (8800) be put to death H4191 (8714).

[17] It [is] a sign H226 between me and the children H1121 of Israel H3478 for ever H5769: for [in] six H8337 days H3117 the LORD H3068 made H6213 (8804) heaven H8064 and earth H776, and on the seventh H7637 day H3117 he rested H7673 (8804), and was refreshed H5314 (8735).
[18] And he gave H5414 (8799) unto Moses H4872, when he had made an end H3615 (8763) of communing H1696 (8763) with him upon mount H2022 Sinai H5514, two H8147 tables H3871 of testimony H5715, tables H3871 of stone H68, written H3789 (8803) with the finger H676 of God H430.
Young’s Literal Translation
Exodus 31 (YLT)
[1] And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
[2] ‘See, I have called by name Bezaleel, son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah,
[3] and I fill him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all work,
[4] to devise devices to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,
[5] and in graving of stone for settings, and in graving of wood to work in all work.
[6] ‘And I, lo, I have given with him Aholiab, son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, and in the heart of every wise-hearted one I have given wisdom, and they have made all that which I have commanded thee.
[7] ‘The tent of meeting, and the ark of testimony, and the mercy-seat which is on it, and all the vessels of the tent,
[8] and the table and its vessels, and the pure candlestick and all its vessels, and the altar of the perfume,
[9] and the altar of the burnt-offering and all its vessels, and the laver and its base,
[10] and the coloured garments, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, for acting as priests in;
[11] and the anointing oil, and the perfume of the spices for the sanctuary; according to all that I have commanded thee-they do.’
[12] And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
[13] ‘And thou, speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, Only, My sabbaths ye do keep, for it is a sign between Me and you, to your generations, to know that I, Jehovah, am sanctifying you;
[14] and ye have kept the sabbath, for it is holy to you, he who is polluting it is certainly put to death-for any who doeth work in it-that person hath even been cut off from the midst of his people.
[15] ‘Six days is work done, and in the seventh day is a sabbath of holy rest to Jehovah; any who doeth work in the sabbath-day is certainly put to death,
[16] and the sons of Israel have observed the sabbath; to keep the sabbath to their generations is a covenant age-during,
[17] between Me and the sons of Israel it is a sign-to the age; for six days Jehovah made the heavens and the earth, and in the seventh day He hath ceased, and is refreshed.’
[18] And He giveth unto Moses, when He finisheth speaking with him in mount Sinai, two tables of the testimony, tables of stone, written by the finger of God.
