The taskmasters were urgent saying, "Fulfill your work quota daily, as when there was straw!"

Go therefore now, and work, for no straw shall be given to you, yet you shall deliver the same number of bricks!"

In the first day there shall be to you a holy convocation, and in the seventh day a holy convocation; no kind of work shall be done in them, except that which every man must eat, that only may be done by you.

You shall put the testimony which I shall give you into the ark.

You shall put the mercy seat on top of the ark, and in the ark you shall put the testimony that I will give you.

and they received from Moses all the offering which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, with which to make it. They brought yet to him freewill offerings every morning.

All the wise men, who performed all the work of the sanctuary, each came from his work which they did.

They spoke to Moses, saying, "The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work which Yahweh commanded to make."

You shall set the golden altar for incense before the ark of the testimony, and put the screen of the door to the tabernacle.

He took and put the testimony into the ark, and set the poles on the ark, and put the mercy seat above on the ark.

He brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up the veil of the screen, and screened the ark of the testimony, as Yahweh commanded Moses.

He raised up the court around the tabernacle and the altar, and set up the screen of the gate of the court. So Moses finished the work.
