<t /><p class="bodytext">This is the inventory<n id="1" /> of the tabernacle, the tabernacle of the testimony, which was counted<n id="2" /> by the order<n id="3" /> of Moses, being the work<n id="4" /> of the Levites under the direction<n id="5" /> of Ithamar, son of Aaron the priest.

Now Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made everything that the <sc>Lordsc> had commanded Moses;

He put<n id="1" /> them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod as stones of memorial for the Israelites, just as the <sc>Lordsc> had commanded Moses.p>

They made two rings of gold and put them on the other<n id="1" /> two ends of the breastpiece on its edge, which is on the inner side of the ephod.<n id="2" />

There was<n id="1" /> a bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a pomegranate, all around the hem of the robe, to be used in ministering,<n id="2" /> just as the <sc>Lordsc> had commanded Moses.p>

The sash was of fine twisted linen and blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, the work of an embroiderer, just as the <sc>Lordsc> had commanded Moses.

They attached to it a blue cord, to attach it to the turban above, just as the <sc>Lordsc> had commanded Moses.p>

<t /><n id="1" /><p class="bodytext">So all the work of the tabernacle, the tent of meeting, was completed, and the Israelites did according to all that the <sc>Lordsc> had commanded Moses &#8211; they did it exactly so.

the bronze altar and its bronze grating, its poles, and all its utensils; the large basin with its pedestal;

<p class="bodytext">The Israelites did all the work according to all that the <sc>Lordsc> had commanded Moses.

Moses inspected<n id="1" /> all the work &#8211; and<n id="2" /> they had done it just as the <sc>Lordsc> had commanded &#8211; they had done it exactly &#8211; and Moses blessed them.<n id="3" />p>

And take<n id="1" /> the anointing oil, and anoint<n id="2" /> the tabernacle and all that is in it, and sanctify<n id="3" /> it and all its furnishings, and it will be holy.

and anoint them just as you anointed their father, so that they may minister as my priests; their anointing will make them a priesthood that will continue throughout their generations.&#8221;

Then he spread the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering of the tent over it, as the <sc>Lordsc> had commanded Moses.

And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, hung<n id="1" /> the protecting curtain,<n id="2" /> and shielded the ark of the testimony from view, just as the <sc>Lordsc> had commanded Moses.p>

Whenever they entered<n id="1" /> the tent of meeting, and whenever they approached<n id="2" /> the altar, they would wash,<n id="3" /> just as the <sc>Lordsc> had commanded Moses.p>

In all cases of illegal possessions,<n id="1" /> whether for an ox, a donkey, a sheep, a garment, or any kind of lost item, about which someone says &#8216;This belongs to me,&#8217;<n id="2" /> the matter of the two of them will come before the judges,<n id="3" /> and the one whom<n id="4" /> the judges declare guilty<n id="5" /> must repay double to his neighbor.

<t /><n id="1" /><p class="bodytext">When the people saw that Moses delayed<n id="2" /> in coming down<n id="3" /> from the mountain, they<n id="4" /> gathered around Aaron and said to him, &#8220;Get up,<n id="5" /> make us gods<n id="6" /> that will go before us. As for this fellow Moses,<n id="7" /> the man who brought us up from the land of Egypt, we do not know what<n id="8" /> has become of him!&#8221;p>

<p class="bodytext">The man<n id="1" /> replied, &#8220;Who made you a ruler<n id="2" /> and a judge over us? Are you planning<n id="3" /> to kill me like you killed that<n id="4" /> Egyptian?&#8221; Then Moses was afraid, thinking,<n id="5" /> &#8220;Surely what I did<n id="6" /> has become known.&#8221;

And if<n id="1" /> they do not believe even these two signs or listen to you,<n id="2" /> then take<n id="3" /> some water from the Nile and pour it out on the dry ground. The water you take out of the Nile will become blood on the dry ground.&#8221;<n id="4" />p>
