The willing offering

Moses gathered the whole assembly of Israel and said, 'These are the things the Lord commanded you to do.' Six days work will be done, but on the seventh day there'll be a holy day for you, a sabbath of rest to the Lord. Whoever does work in it will be put to death. You won't light a fire through your homes on the sabbath day. Moses told the whole assembly of Israel, 'This is what the Lord commanded:' Take an offering to the Lord from among you. Whoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it as an offering of the Lord — gold and silver and bronze, And blue, purple and scarlet and fine linen and goats' hair, And rams' skins dyed red and fine leather and acacia wood, And oil for the light, and spices for anointing oil and for the sweet incense, And onyx stones and stones to be set for the priestly apron and for the breastplate. 'Every skilled person among you is to come and make everything the Lord commanded:' The tent, its tent and its covering, its clasps and its boards, its bars, its pillars and its bases, The ark and its carrying poles, the ark's cover and the veil of the covering; The table and its poles and all its vessels, and the sacred bread, The lampstand for the light, with its utensils and lamps, and the oil for the light; The altar of incense and its poles, and the anointing oil and the sweet incense, and the screen for the door at the entrance of the tent, The altar of burnt offering with its bronze grate, its poles and all its vessels, the washbasin and its stand, The hangings of the court, its pillars and their bases, and the screen for the door of the court, The pegs of the tent and the pegs of the court and their cords, The cloths of service for ministering in the sanctuary, the sacred garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments for his sons to serve as priests. All the assembly of Israel left before Moses. Everyone whose heart stirred them and whose spirit was willing came and brought the Lord's offering for the work of the tent of meeting, for all its service and for the sacred garments. They came, both men and women, as many as were willing-hearted, and brought brooches and earrings and rings and jewellery, all kinds of jewels of gold. And every man who offered, offered an offering of gold to the Lord. And every man who had blue, purple and scarlet and fine linen and goats' hair and red skins of rams and fine leather brought them. Everyone who offered an offering of silver and bronze brought the Lord's offering. And every man who had acacia wood for any work of the service brought it. All the women who were skilled spun with their hands and brought what they'd spun, both of blue and of purple and of scarlet and of fine linen. All the women whose heart stirred them up in wisdom spun goats' hair. The leaders brought onyx stones and stones to be set for the priestly apron and for the breastplate, And spice and oil for the light and for the anointing oil and for the sweet incense. The Israelites brought a willing offering to the Lord — every man and woman whose heart made them willing to contribute to all the work the Lord had commanded through Moses.

And Moses gathered all the gathering of the people of Israel together and said to them: These are the words the Lord has ordered, that you should do them. Six days work will be done, but on the seventh day there'll be a holy day for you, a sabbath of rest to the Lord. Whoever does work in it will be put to death. You won't light a fire through your homes on the sabbath day. And Moses spoke to all the gathering of the people of Israel: This is the thing the Lord ordered: Take an offering to the Lord from among you. Whoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it as an offering of the Lord — gold and silver and bronze, and blue and purple and scarlet and fine linen and goats' hair, and rams' skins dyed red and fine leather and acacia wood, and oil for the light, and spices for anointing oil and for the sweet incense, and onyx stones and stones to be set for the ephod and for the breastpiece. And every wise-hearted one among you will come and make everything the Lord has ordered — the tent, its tent and its covering, its clasps and its boards, its bars, its pillars and its bases, the ark and its poles, with the covering, and the curtain of the covering, the table and its poles and all its vessels, and the bread of the Presence, the lampstand for the light and its furniture and its lamps, with the oil for the light, and the altar of incense and its poles, and the anointing oil and the sweet incense, and the screen for the door at the entrance of the tent, the altar of burnt offering with its bronze grate, its poles and all its vessels, the basin and its stand, the hangings of the court, its pillars and their bases, and the screen for the door of the court, the pegs of the tent and the pegs of the court and their cords, the woven clothes to serve in in the holy place, the holy clothes for Aaron the priest and the clothes of his sons to serve as priests. And all the gathering of the people of Israel went out from in front of Moses. And they came, everyone whose heart stirred him up, and everyone his spirit made willing. And they brought the Lord's offering for the work of the tent of meeting and for all its service and for the holy clothes. And they came, both men and women, as many as were willing-hearted, and brought brooches and earrings and rings and jewellery, all kinds of jewels of gold. And every man who offered, offered an offering of gold to the Lord. And every man who had blue and purple and scarlet and fine linen and goats' hair and red skins of rams and fine leather brought them. Everyone who offered an offering of silver and bronze brought the Lord's offering. And every man who had acacia wood for any work of the service brought it. And all the women who were wise-hearted spun with their hands and brought what they'd spun, both of blue and of purple and of scarlet and of fine linen. And all the women whose heart stirred them up in wisdom spun goats' hair. And the leaders brought onyx stones and stones to be set for the ephod and for the breastpiece, and spice and oil for the light and for the anointing oil and for the sweet incense. The people of Israel brought a willing offering to the Lord, every man and woman whose heart made them willing to bring for all kinds of work the Lord had ordered to be made through Moses.

And Moses gathered all the congregation of the children of Israel together, and said unto them, These are the words which the LORD hath commanded, that ye should do them. Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you an holy day, a sabbath of rest to the LORD: whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to death. Ye shall kindle no fire throughout your habitations upon the sabbath day. And Moses spake unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying, This is the thing which the LORD commanded, saying, Take ye from among you an offering unto the LORD: whosoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it, an offering of the LORD; gold, and silver, and brass, And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats’ hair, And rams’ skins dyed red, and badgers’ skins, and shittim wood, And oil for the light, and spices for anointing oil, and for the sweet incense, And onyx stones, and stones to be set for the ephod, and for the breastplate. And every wise hearted among you shall come, and make all that the LORD hath commanded; The tabernacle, his tent, and his covering, his taches, and his boards, his bars, his pillars, and his sockets, The ark, and the staves thereof, with the mercy seat, and the vail of the covering, The table, and his staves, and all his vessels, and the shewbread, The candlestick also for the light, and his furniture, and his lamps, with the oil for the light, And the incense altar, and his staves, and the anointing oil, and the sweet incense, and the hanging for the door at the entering in of the tabernacle, The altar of burnt offering, with his brasen grate, his staves, and all his vessels, the laver and his foot, The hangings of the court, his pillars, and their sockets, and the hanging for the door of the court, The pins of the tabernacle, and the pins of the court, and their cords, The cloths of service, to do service in the holy place, the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister in the priest’s office. And all the congregation of the children of Israel departed from the presence of Moses. And they came, every one whose heart stirred him up, and every one whom his spirit made willing, and they brought the LORD’s offering to the work of the tabernacle of the congregation, and for all his service, and for the holy garments. And they came, both men and women, as many as were willing hearted, and brought bracelets, and earrings, and rings, and tablets, all jewels of gold: and every man that offered offered an offering of gold unto the LORD. And every man, with whom was found blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats’ hair, and red skins of rams, and badgers’ skins, brought them. Every one that did offer an offering of silver and brass brought the LORD’s offering: and every man, with whom was found shittim wood for any work of the service, brought it. And all the women that were wise hearted did spin with their hands, and brought that which they had spun, both of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, and of fine linen. And all the women whose heart stirred them up in wisdom spun goats’ hair. And the rulers brought onyx stones, and stones to be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate; And spice, and oil for the light, and for the anointing oil, and for the sweet incense. The children of Israel brought a willing offering unto the LORD, every man and woman, whose heart made them willing to bring for all manner of work, which the LORD had commanded to be made by the hand of Moses.
