| 3and I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with ability and intelligence, with knowledge and all craftsmanship, | 3And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship, |
| 4to devise artistic designs, to work in gold, silver, and bronze, | 4To devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, |
| 5in cutting stones for setting, and in carving wood, to work in every craft. | 5And in cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship. |

And I have given to all able men ability, that they may make all that I have commanded you: | 6And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan: and in the hearts of all that are wise hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded thee; |
| 7the tent of meeting, and the ark of the testimony, and the mercy seat that is on it, and all the furnishings of the tent, | 7The tabernacle of the congregation, and the ark of the testimony, and the mercy seat that is thereupon, and all the furniture of the tabernacle, |
| 8the table and its utensils, and the pure lampstand with all its utensils, and the altar of incense, | 8And the table and his furniture, and the pure candlestick with all his furniture, and the altar of incense, |
| 9and the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the basin and its stand, | 9And the altar of burnt offering with all his furniture, and the laver and his foot, |

| 12And the LORD said to Moses, | 12And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 13“You are to speak to the people of Israel and say, ‘Above all you shall keep my Sabbaths, for this is a sign between me and you throughout your generations, that you may know that I, the LORD, sanctify you. | 13Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you. |
| 14You shall keep the Sabbath, because it is holy for you. Everyone who profanes it shall be put to death. Whoever does any work on it, that soul shall be cut off from among his people. | 14Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one that defileth it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people. |
| 15Six days shall work be done, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest, holy to the LORD. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day shall be put to death. | 15Six days may work be done; but in the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth any work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death. |
| 16Therefore the people of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, observing the Sabbath throughout their generations, as a covenant forever. | 16Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant. |
| 17It is a sign forever between me and the people of Israel that in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested and was refreshed.’” | 17It is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed. |
| 18And he gave to Moses, when he had finished speaking with him on Mount Sinai, the two tablets of the testimony, tablets of stone, written with the finger of God. | 18And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of communing with him upon mount Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God. |
