And you are to make a veil of the best linen, blue and purple and red, worked with designs of winged ones by a good workman:

And you are to put up the veil under the hooks, and put inside it the ark of the law: the veil is to be a division between the holy place and the most holy.

You are to put the cover on the ark of the law, inside the most holy place.

And outside the veil you are to put the table, and the support for the lights opposite the table on the south side of the House; and the table is to be on the north side.

And you are to make a curtain for the doorway of the Tent, of the best linen with needlework of blue and purple and red.

And make five pillars for the curtain, of hard wood plated with gold; their hooks are to be of gold and their bases of brass

Their twenty pillars and their twenty bases are to be of brass; the hooks of the pillars and their bands are to be of silver.

And on the north side in the same way, hangings a hundred cubits long, with twenty pillars of brass on bases of brass; their hooks and their bands are to be of silver.

And for the open space on the west side, the hangings are to be fifty cubits wide, with ten pillars and ten bases;

All the pillars round the open space are to have silver bands, with hooks of silver and bases of brass.

All the instruments for the work of the House, and all its nails, and the nails of the open space are to be of brass.

This is what they are to make: a priest's bag, an ephod, and a robe, and a coat of coloured needlework, a head-dress, and a linen band; they are to make holy robes for Aaron your brother and for his sons, so that they may do the work of priests for me.

They are to take the gold and blue and purple and red and the best linen,

You are to take two beryl stones, on which the names of the children of Israel are to be cut:

With the work of a jeweller, like the cutting of a stamp, the names of the children of Israel are to be cut on them, and they are to be fixed in twisted frames of gold.

And the two stones are to be placed on the ephod, over the arm-holes, to be stones of memory for the children of Israel: Aaron will have their names on his arms when he goes in before the Lord, to keep the Lord in mind of them.

And you are to make twisted frames of gold;

And on it you are to put four lines of jewels; the first line is to be a cornelian, a chrysolite, and an emerald;

The fourth, a topaz, a beryl, and a jasper; they are to be fixed in twisted frames of gold.

The jewels are to be twelve in number, for the names of the children of Israel; every jewel having the name of one of the twelve tribes cut on it as on a stamp.

And you are to make two chains of gold, twisted like cords, to be fixed to the priest's bag.

And in the bag you are to put the Urim and Thummim, so that they may be on Aaron's heart whenever he goes in before the Lord; and Aaron may have the power of making decisions for the children of Israel before the Lord at all times.

You are to make a plate of the best gold, cutting on it, as on a stamp, these words: HOLY TO THE LORD.

The coat is to be made of the best linen, worked in squares; and you are to make a head-dress of linen, and a linen band worked in needlework.

And for Aaron's sons you are to make coats, and bands, and head-dresses, so that they may be clothed with glory and honour.

These you are to put on Aaron, your brother, and on his sons, putting oil on them, separating them and making them holy, to do the work of priests to me.

And you are to make them linen trousers, covering their bodies from the middle to the knee;

Aaron and his sons are to put these on whenever they go into the Tent of meeting or come near the altar, when they are doing the work of the holy place, so that they may be free from any sin causing death: this is to be an order for him and his seed after him for ever.

This is what you are to do to make them holy, to do the work of priests to me: Take one young ox and two male sheep, without any mark on them,

And put the linen bands round Aaron and his sons, and the head-dresses on them, to make them priests by my order for ever: so you are to make Aaron and his sons holy to me.

And you are to put the ox to death before the Lord at the door of the Tent of meeting.

But the flesh of the ox and its skin and its waste parts are to be burned outside the circle of the tents, for it is a sin-offering.

Then let it be put to death, so that the sides of the altar are marked with its blood.

Then the sheep is to be cut up into its parts, and after washing its legs and its inside parts, you are to put them with the parts and the head,

You are to put the sheep to death, and take some of its blood and put it on the point of Aaron's right ear, and of the right ears of his sons, and on the thumbs of their right hands and the great toes of their right feet, dropping the rest of the blood on the sides of the altar.

Then take the fat of the sheep, the fat tail, the fat covering the insides, and the fat joining the liver and the two kidneys with the fat round them, and the right leg; for by the offering of this sheep they are to be marked out as priests:

So you are to make holy the breast of the sheep which is waved and the leg which is lifted up on high, that is, of the sheep which is offered for Aaron and his sons;

And Aaron's holy robes will be used by his sons after him; they will put them on when they are made priests.

All those things which were used as offerings to take away sin, and to make them holy to be priests, they may have for food: but no one who is not a priest may have them, for they are holy food.

All these things you are to do to Aaron and his sons as I have given you orders: for seven days the work of making them priests is to go on.

Every day an ox is to be offered as a sin-offering, to take away sins: and by this offering on it, you will make the altar clean from sin; and you are to put oil on it and make it holy.

For seven days you are to make offerings for the altar and make it holy, so that it may become completely holy, and anything touching it will become holy.

Now this is the offering which you are to make on the altar: two lambs in their first year, every day regularly.

And you are to make an altar for the burning of perfume; of hard wood let it be made.

The altar is to be square, a cubit long and a cubit wide, and two cubits high, and its horns are to be made of the same.

Under the edge on the two opposite sides, you are to make two gold rings, to take the rods for lifting it.

And on this altar sweet spices are to be burned by Aaron every morning when he sees to the lights.

And every evening, when he puts the lights up in their places, the spices are to be burned, a sweet-smelling smoke going up before the Lord from generation to generation for ever.

When you are taking the number of the children of Israel, let every man who is numbered give to the Lord a price for his life, so that no disease may come on them when they are numbered.

And this is what they are to give; let every man who is numbered give half a shekel, by the scale of the holy place: (the shekel being valued at twenty gerahs:) this money is an offering to the Lord.

And you are to take this money from the children of Israel to be used for the work of the Tent of meeting, to keep the memory of the children of Israel before the Lord and to be the price of your lives.

You are to make a brass washing-vessel, with a brass base; and put it between the Tent of meeting and the altar, with water in it;

Whenever they go into the Tent of meeting they are to be washed with water, to keep them from death; and whenever they come near to do the work of the altar, or to make an offering by fire to the Lord,

Their hands and feet are to be washed. so that they may be safe from death: this is an order to them for ever; to him and his seed from generation to generation.

And you are to make them most holy; anything touching them will become holy.

It is not to be used for man's flesh, and no other is to be made like it: holy it is, and you are to keep it holy.

You are not to make any perfume like it for yourselves: it is to be kept holy to the Lord.

And I have made selection of Oholiab with him, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan; and in the hearts of all who are wise I have put the knowledge to make whatever I have given you orders to have made;

Say to the children of Israel that they are to keep my Sabbaths; for the Sabbath day is a sign between me and you through all your generations; so that you may see that I am the Lord who makes you holy.

So you are to keep the Sabbath as a holy day; and anyone not honouring it will certainly be put to death: whoever does any work on that day will be cut off from his people.

And the children of Israel are to keep the Sabbath holy, from generation to generation, by an eternal agreement.

Then Aaron said to them, Take off the gold rings which are in the ears of your wives and your sons and your daughters, and give them to me.

And the Lord said to Moses, Go down quickly; for your people, whom you took out of the land of Egypt, are turned to evil ways;

Even now they are turned away from the rule I gave them, and have made themselves a metal ox and given worship to it and offerings, saying, This is your god, O Israel, who took you up out of the land of Egypt.

And the Lord said to Moses, I have been watching this people, and I see that they are a stiff-necked people.

And Moses said, It is not the voice of men who are overcoming in the fight, or the cry of those who have been overcome; it is the sound of songs which comes to my ear.

And Aaron said, Let not my lord be angry; you have seen how the purposes of this people are evil.

Go up to that land flowing with milk and honey; but I will not go up among you, for you are a stiff-necked people, for fear that I send destruction on you while you are on the way.

And the Lord said to Moses, Say to the children of Israel, You are a stiff-necked people: if I come among you, even for a minute, I will send destruction on you; so take off all your ornaments, so that I may see what to do with you.

And Moses said, If you yourself are not going with us, do not send us on from here.

For is not the fact of your going with us the sign that I and this people have grace in your eyes, so that we, that is, I and your people, are separate from all other people on the face of the earth?

But take care, and do not make any agreement with the people of the land where you are going, for it will be a cause of sin to you.

But their altars are to be overturned and their pillars broken and their images cut down:

For you are to be worshippers of no other god: for the Lord is a God who will not give his honour to another.

A lamb may be given in payment for the young of an ass, but if you will not make payment for it, its neck will have to be broken. For all the first of your sons you are to make payment. No one is to come before me without an offering.

Six days let work be done, but on the seventh day take your rest: at ploughing time and at the grain-cutting you are to have a day for rest.

And you are to keep the feast of weeks when you get in the first-fruits of the grain, and the feast at the turn of the year when you take in the produce of your fields.

And Moses sent for all the children of Israel to come together, and said to them, This is what the Lord has said and these are his orders.

To them he has given knowledge of all the arts of the handworker, of the designer, and the expert workman; of the maker of needlework in blue and purple and red and the best linen, and of the maker of cloth; in all the arts of the designer and the trained workman they are expert.

And said to Moses, The people are giving much more than is needed for the work which the Lord has given us orders to do.

On the first day of the first month you are to put up the House of the Tent of meeting.

You are to put on Aaron the holy robes; and you are to put oil on him, and make him holy, so that he may be my priest.

Give these orders to the children of Israel: When anyone of you makes an offering to the Lord, you are to take it from the cattle, from the herd or from the flock.

And the ox is to be put to death before the Lord: then Aaron's sons, the priests, are to take the blood and put some of it on and round the altar which is at the door of the Tent of meeting.

And Aaron's sons, the priests, are to put fire on the altar and put the wood in order on the fire:

And Aaron's sons, the priests, are to put the parts, the head and the fat, in order on the wood which is on the fire on the altar:

But its inside parts and its legs are to be washed with water, and it will all be burned on the altar by the priest for a burned offering, an offering made by fire, for a sweet smell to the Lord.

And he is to put it to death on the north side of the altar before the Lord: and Aaron's sons, the priests, are to put some of the blood on and round the altar.

But the inside parts and the legs are to be washed with water; and the priest will make an offering of all of it, burning it on the altar: it is a burned offering, an offering made by fire, for a sweet smell to the Lord.

And you are to give the meal offering made of these things to the Lord, and let the priest take it to the altar.

You may give them as an offering of first-fruits to the Lord, but they are not to go up as a sweet smell on the altar.

And he is to put his hand on the head of his offering and put it to death at the door of the Tent of meeting; and Aaron's sons, the priests, are to put some of the blood on and round the altar.

And he is to put his hand on the head of his offering and put it to death before the Tent of meeting; and Aaron's sons are to put some of its blood on and round the altar.

And let him put his hand on the head of it and put it to death before the Tent of meeting; and the sons of Aaron are to put some of its blood on and round the altar.

Let it be an order for ever, through all your generations, in all your houses, that you are not to take fat or blood for food.

Say to the children of Israel: These are the offerings of anyone who does wrong through error, doing any of the things which by the Lord's order are not to be done:

And if all the people of Israel do wrong, without anyone's knowledge; if they have done any of the things which by the Lord's order are not to be done, causing sin to come on them;

If a ruler does wrong, and in error does any of the things which, by the order of the Lord his God, are not to be done, causing sin to come on him;

And if any one of the common people does wrong in error, doing any of the things which the Lord has given orders are not to be done, causing sin to come on him;

And if anyone does wrong, and does any of the things which the Lord has given orders are not to be done, though he has no knowledge of it, still he is in the wrong and he is responsible.
