| Exodus 34 (NKJV™) | |
| 10 | And He said: "Behold, I make a covenant. Before all your people I will do marvels such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people among whom you are shall see the work of the LORD. For it is an awesome thing that I will do with you. |
| 11 | "Observe what I command you this day. Behold, I am driving out from before you the Amorite and the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Perizzite and the Hivite and the Jebusite. |
| 12 | "Take heed to yourself, lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you are going, lest it be a snare in your midst. |
| 13 | "But you shall destroy their altars, break their sacred pillars, and cut down their wooden images |
| 14 | '(for you shall worship no other god, for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God), |
| 15 | "lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they play the harlot with their gods and make sacrifice to their gods, and one of them invites you and you eat of his sacrifice, |
| 16 | "and you take of his daughters for your sons, and his daughters play the harlot with their gods and make your sons play the harlot with their gods. |
| 17 | "You shall make no molded gods for yourselves. |
| 18 | "The Feast of Unleavened Bread you shall keep. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, in the appointed time of the month of Abib; for in the month of Abib you came out from Egypt. |
| 19 | "All that open the womb are Mine, and every male firstborn among your livestock, whether ox or sheep. |
| 20 | "But the firstborn of a donkey you shall redeem with a lamb. And if you will not redeem him, then you shall break his neck. All the firstborn of your sons you shall redeem. And none shall appear before Me empty-handed. |
| 21 | "Six days you shall work, but on the seventh day you shall rest; in plowing time and in harvest you shall rest. |
| 22 | "And you shall observe the Feast of Weeks, of the firstfruits of wheat harvest, and the Feast of Ingathering at the year's end. |
| 23 | "Three times in the year all your men shall appear before the Lord, the LORD God of Israel. |
| 24 | "For I will cast out the nations before you and enlarge your borders; neither will any man covet your land when you go up to appear before the LORD your God three times in the year. |
| 25 | "You shall not offer the blood of My sacrifice with leaven, nor shall the sacrifice of the Feast of the Passover be left until morning. |
| 26 | "The first of the firstfruits of your land you shall bring to the house of the LORD your God. You shall not boil a young goat in its mother's milk." |
| 27 | Then the LORD said to Moses, "Write these words, for according to the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel." |
| 28 | So he was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights; he neither ate bread nor drank water. And He wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant, the Ten Commandments. |
| 29 | Now it was so, when Moses came down from Mount Sinai (and the two tablets of the Testimony were in Moses' hand when he came down from the mountain), that Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone while he talked with Him. |
| 30 | So when Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone, and they were afraid to come near him. |
| 31 | Then Moses called to them, and Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation returned to him; and Moses talked with them. |
| 32 | Afterward all the children of Israel came near, and he gave them as commandments all that the LORD had spoken with him on Mount Sinai. |
| 33 | And when Moses had finished speaking with them, he put a veil on his face. |
| 34 | But whenever Moses went in before the LORD to speak with Him, he would take the veil off until he came out; and he would come out and speak to the children of Israel whatever he had been commanded. |
| 35 | And whenever the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses' face shone, then Moses would put the veil on his face again, until he went in to speak with Him. |
| Exodus 35 (NKJV™) | |
| 1 | Then Moses gathered all the congregation of the children of Israel together, and said to them, "These are the words which the LORD has commanded you to do: |
| 2 | "Work shall be done for six days, but the seventh day shall be a holy day for you, a Sabbath of rest to the LORD. Whoever does any work on it shall be put to death. |
| 3 | "You shall kindle no fire throughout your dwellings on the Sabbath day." |
| 4 | And Moses spoke to all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying, "This is the thing which the LORD commanded, saying: |
| 5 | 'Take from among you an offering to the LORD. Whoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it as an offering to the LORD: gold, silver, and bronze; |
| 6 | 'blue, purple, and scarlet thread, fine linen, and goats' hair; |
| 7 | 'ram skins dyed red, badger skins, and acacia wood; |
| 8 | 'oil for the light, and spices for the anointing oil and for the sweet incense; |
| 9 | 'onyx stones, and stones to be set in the ephod and in the breastplate. |
| 10 | 'All who are gifted artisans among you shall come and make all that the LORD has commanded: |
| 11 | 'the tabernacle, its tent, its covering, its clasps, its boards, its bars, its pillars, and its sockets; |
| 12 | 'the ark and its poles, with the mercy seat, and the veil of the covering; |
| 13 | 'the table and its poles, all its utensils, and the showbread; |
| 14 | 'also the lampstand for the light, its utensils, its lamps, and the oil for the light; |
| 15 | 'the incense altar, its poles, the anointing oil, the sweet incense, and the screen for the door at the entrance of the tabernacle; |
| 16 | 'the altar of burnt offering with its bronze grating, its poles, all its utensils, and the laver and its base; |
| 17 | 'the hangings of the court, its pillars, their sockets, and the screen for the gate of the court; |
| 18 | 'the pegs of the tabernacle, the pegs of the court, and their cords; |
| 19 | 'the garments of ministry, for ministering in the holy place--the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments of his sons, to minister as priests.'" |
| 20 | And all the congregation of the children of Israel departed from the presence of Moses. |
| 21 | Then everyone came whose heart was stirred, and everyone whose spirit was willing, and they brought the LORD'S offering for the work of the tabernacle of meeting, for all its service, and for the holy garments. |
| 22 | They came, both men and women, as many as had a willing heart, and brought earrings and nose rings, rings and necklaces, all jewelry of gold, that is, every man who made an offering of gold to the LORD. |
| 23 | And every man, with whom was found blue, purple, and scarlet thread, fine linen, and goats' hair, red skins of rams, and badger skins, brought them. |
| 24 | Everyone who offered an offering of silver or bronze brought the LORD'S offering. And everyone with whom was found acacia wood for any work of the service, brought it. |
| 25 | All the women who were gifted artisans spun yarn with their hands, and brought what they had spun, of blue, purple, and scarlet, and fine linen. |
| 26 | And all the women whose heart stirred with wisdom spun yarn of goats' hair. |
| 27 | The rulers brought onyx stones, and the stones to be set in the ephod and in the breastplate, |
| 28 | and spices and oil for the light, for the anointing oil, and for the sweet incense. |
| 29 | The children of Israel brought a freewill offering to the LORD, all the men and women whose hearts were willing to bring material for all kinds of work which the LORD, by the hand of Moses, had commanded to be done. |
| 30 | And Moses said to the children of Israel, "See, the LORD has called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah; |
| 31 | "and He has filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom and understanding, in knowledge and all manner of workmanship, |
| 32 | "to design artistic works, to work in gold and silver and bronze, |
| 33 | "in cutting jewels for setting, in carving wood, and to work in all manner of artistic workmanship. |
| 34 | "And He has put in his heart the ability to teach, in him and Aholiab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan. |
| 35 | "He has filled them with skill to do all manner of work of the engraver and the designer and the tapestry maker, in blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and fine linen, and of the weaver--those who do every work and those who design artistic works. |
