The leaders brought onyx stones and gemstones to mount on the ephod and breastpiece,

…as well as spices and olive oil for the light, for the anointing oil, and for the fragrant incense.

So all the men and women of the Israelites whose hearts prompted them brought a freewill offering to the LORD for all the work that the LORD through Moses had commanded them to do.

And He has filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, ability, and knowledge in all kinds of craftsmanship,

He has filled them with skill to do all kinds of work as engravers, designers, embroiderers in blue, purple, and scarlet yarn and fine linen, and as weavers—as artistic designers of every kind of craft.

“So Bezalel, Oholiab, and every skilled person are to carry out everything commanded by the LORD, who has given them skill and ability to know how to perform all the work of constructing the sanctuary.”

Then Moses summoned Bezalel, Oholiab, and every skilled person whom the LORD had gifted—everyone whose heart stirred him to come and do the work.

They received from Moses all the contributions that the Israelites had brought to carry out the service of constructing the sanctuary. Meanwhile, the people continued to bring freewill offerings morning after morning,

…so that all the skilled craftsmen who were doing all the work on the sanctuary left their work

…and said to Moses, “The people are bringing more than enough for doing the work the LORD has commanded us to do.”

…since what they already had was more than enough to perform all the work.

All the skilled craftsmen among the workmen made the ten curtains for the tabernacle. They were made of finely spun linen, as well as blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, with cherubim skillfully worked into them.

And he joined five of the curtains together, and the other five he joined as well.

He also made fifty gold clasps to join the curtains together, so that the tabernacle was a unit.

He then made curtains of goat hair for the tent over the tabernacle—eleven curtains in all.

He joined five of the curtains into one set and the other six into another.

He also made fifty bronze clasps to join the tent together as a unit.

Next, he constructed upright frames of acacia wood for the tabernacle.

He constructed twenty frames for the south side of the tabernacle,

He made the central crossbar to run through the center of the frames, from one end to the other.

And he overlaid the frames with gold and made gold rings to hold the crossbars. He also overlaid the crossbars with gold.

Next, he made the veil of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and finely spun linen, with cherubim skillfully worked into it.

…together with five posts and their hooks. He overlaid the tops of the posts and their bands with gold, and their five bases were bronze.

Bezalel went on to construct the ark of acacia wood, two and a half cubits long, a cubit and a half wide, and a cubit and a half high.

Then he made poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold.

He inserted the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark in order to carry it.

He made two cherubim of hammered gold at the ends of the mercy seat,

…one cherub on one end and one on the other, all made from one piece of gold.

He also made the table of acacia wood two cubits long, a cubit wide, and a cubit and a half high.

He overlaid it with pure gold and made a gold molding around it.

He cast four gold rings for the table and fastened them to the four corners at its four legs.

The rings were placed close to the rim, to serve as holders for the poles used to carry the table.

He made the poles of acacia wood for carrying the table and overlaid them with gold.

He also made the utensils for the table out of pure gold: its plates and dishes, as well as its bowls and pitchers for pouring drink offerings.

Then he made the lampstand out of pure hammered gold, all of one piece: its base and shaft, its cups, and its buds and petals.
