Exodus 36
Reading Exodus chapter 36 in the Darby Bible, public-domain text from 1890.
Verses 1–10
1 Then wrought Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every man that was wise-hearted, in whom Jehovah had put wisdom and understanding to know how to work all manner of work of the service of the sanctuary — according to all that Jehovah had commanded.
2 And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every man that was wise-hearted, in whose heartGod had put wisdom, every one whose heart moved him to come to the work to do it.
3 And they took from Moses every heave-offering that the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, to make it. And they still brought him voluntary offerings morning by morning.
4 And all the wise men that wrought all the work of the sanctuary came, every man from his work which they wrought,
5 and spoke to Moses, saying, The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work that Jehovah commanded to be done.
6 Then Moses gave commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed through the camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman make any more work for the heave-offering of the sanctuary! So the people were restrained from bringing;
7 for the work they had was sufficient for all the work to do it, and it was too much.
8 And every wise-hearted man among those that wrought the work of the tabernacle made ten curtains of twined byssus, and blue, and purple, and scarlet: [with] cherubim of artistic work did he make them.
9 The length of one curtain was twenty-eight cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits — one measure for all the curtains.
10 And he coupled five of the curtains one to another, and [the other] five curtains coupled he one to another.
