This is the service of the sons of Kohath in the tent of meeting: the most holy things.When the camp is to set out, Aaron and his sons shall go in and take down the veil of the screen and cover the ark of the testimony with it.Then they shall put on it a covering of goatskin and spread on top of that a cloth all of blue, and shall put in its poles.And over the table of the bread of the Presence they shall spread a cloth of blue and put on it the plates, the dishes for incense, the bowls, and the flagons for the drink offering; the regular show bread also shall be on it.Then they shall spread over them a cloth of scarlet and cover the same with a covering of goatskin, and shall put in its poles.And they shall take a cloth of blue and cover the lampstand for the light, with its lamps, its tongs, its trays, and all the vessels for oil with which it is supplied.And they shall put it with all its utensils in a covering of goatskin and put it on the carrying frame.And over the golden altar they shall spread a cloth of blue and cover it with a covering of goatskin, and shall put in its poles.And they shall take all the vessels of the service that are used in the sanctuary and put them in a cloth of blue and cover them with a covering of goatskin and put them on the carrying frame.And they shall take away the ashes from the altar and spread a purple cloth over it.And they shall put on it all the utensils of the altar, which are used for the service there, the fire pans, the forks, the shovels, and the basins, all the utensils of the altar; and they shall spread on it a covering of goatskin, and shall put in its poles.And when Aaron and his sons have finished covering the sanctuary and all the furnishings of the sanctuary, as the camp sets out, after that the sons of Kohath shall come to carry these, but they must not touch the holy things, lest they die. These are the things of the tent of meeting that the sons of Kohath are to carry.“ And Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest shall have charge of the oil for the light, the fragrant incense, the regular grain offering, and the anointing oil, with the oversight of the whole tabernacle and all that is in it, of the sanctuary and its vessels.”The Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,“ Let not the tribe of the clans of the Kohathites be destroyed from among the Levites,but deal thus with them, that they may live and not die when they come near to the most holy things: Aaron and his sons shall go in and appoint them each to his task and to his burden,but they shall not go in to look on the holy things even for a moment, lest they die.”The Lord spoke to Moses, saying,“ Take a census of the sons of Gershon also, by their fathers’ houses and by their clans.From thirty years old up to fifty years old, you shall list them, all who can come to do duty, to do service in the tent of meeting.This is the service of the clans of the Gershonites, in serving and bearing burdens:they shall carry the curtains of the tabernacle and the tent of meeting with its covering and the covering of goatskin that is on top of it and the screen for the entrance of the tent of meetingand the hangings of the court and the screen for the entrance of the gate of the court that is around the tabernacle and the altar, and their cords and all the equipment for their service. And they shall do all that needs to be done with regard to them.All the service of the sons of the Gershonites shall be at the command of Aaron and his sons, in all that they are to carry and in all that they have to do. And you shall assign to their charge all that they are to carry.This is the service of the clans of the sons of the Gershonites in the tent of meeting, and their guard duty is to be under the direction of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.“ As for the sons of Merari, you shall list them by their clans and their fathers’ houses.From thirty years old up to fifty years old, you shall list them, everyone who can come on duty, to do the service of the tent of meeting.And this is what they are charged to carry, as the whole of their service in the tent of meeting: the frames of the tabernacle, with its bars, pillars, and bases,and the pillars around the court with their bases, pegs, and cords, with all their equipment and all their accessories. And you shall list by name the objects that they are required to carry.

Moses assembled all the congregation of the people of Israel and said to them,“ These are the things that the Lord has commanded you to do.Six days work shall be done, but on the seventh day you shall have a Sabbath of solemn rest, holy to the Lord. Whoever does any work on it shall be put to death.You shall kindle no fire in all your dwelling places on the Sabbath day.”Moses said to all the congregation of the people of Israel,“ This is the thing that the Lord has commanded.Take from among you a contribution to the Lord. Whoever is of a generous heart, let him bring the Lord’s contribution: gold, silver, and bronze;blue and purple and scarlet yarns and fine twined linen; goats’ hair,tanned rams’ skins, and goatskins; acacia wood,oil for the light, spices for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense,and onyx stones and stones for setting, for the ephod and for the breastpiece.“ Let every skillful craftsman among you come and make all that the Lord has commanded:the tabernacle, its tent and its covering, its hooks and its frames, its bars, its pillars, and its bases;the ark with its poles, the mercy seat, and the veil of the screen;the table with its poles and all its utensils, and the bread of the Presence;the lampstand also for the light, with its utensils and its lamps, and the oil for the light;and the altar of incense, with its poles, and the anointing oil and the fragrant incense, and the screen for the door, at the door of the tabernacle;the altar of burnt offering, with its grating of bronze, its poles, and all its utensils, the basin and its stand;the hangings of the court, its pillars and its bases, and the screen for the gate of the court;the pegs of the tabernacle and the pegs of the court, and their cords;the finely worked garments for ministering in the Holy Place, the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, for their service as priests.”Then all the congregation of the people of Israel departed from the presence of Moses.And they came, everyone whose heart stirred him, and everyone whose spirit moved him, and brought the Lord’s contribution to be used for the tent of meeting, and for all its service, and for the holy garments.So they came, both men and women. All who were of a willing heart brought brooches and earrings and signet rings and armlets, all sorts of gold objects, every man dedicating an offering of gold to the Lord.And every one who possessed blue or purple or scarlet yarns or fine linen or goats’ hair or tanned rams’ skins or goatskins brought them.Everyone who could make a contribution of silver or bronze brought it as the Lord’s contribution. And every one who possessed acacia wood of any use in the work brought it.And every skillful woman spun with her hands, and they all brought what they had spun in blue and purple and scarlet yarns and fine twined linen.All the women whose hearts stirred them to use their skill spun the goats’ hair.And the leaders brought onyx stones and stones to be set, for the ephod and for the breastpiece,and spices and oil for the light, and for the anointing oil, and for the fragrant incense.All the men and women, the people of Israel, whose heart moved them to bring anything for the work that the Lord had commanded by Moses to be done brought it as a freewill offering to the Lord.Then Moses said to the people of Israel,“ See, the Lord has called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah;and he has filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, with intelligence, with knowledge, and with all craftsmanship,to devise artistic designs, to work in gold and silver and bronze,in cutting stones for setting, and in carving wood, for work in every skilled craft.And he has inspired him to teach, both him and Oholiab the son of Ahisamach of the tribe of Dan.He has filled them with skill to do every sort of work done by an engraver or by a designer or by an embroiderer in blue and purple and scarlet yarns and fine twined linen, or by a weaver— by any sort of workman or skilled designer.

Two cubits and a half shall be its length, a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height.You shall overlay it with pure gold, inside and outside shall you overlay it, and you shall make on it a molding of gold around it.You shall cast four rings of gold for it and put them on its four feet, two rings on the one side of it, and two rings on the other side of it.You shall make poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold.And you shall put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark to carry the ark by them.The poles shall remain in the rings of the ark; they shall not be taken from it.And you shall put into the ark the testimony that I shall give you.“ You shall make a mercy seat of pure gold. Two cubits and a half shall be its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth.And you shall make two cherubim of gold; of hammered work shall you make them, on the two ends of the mercy seat.Make one cherub on the one end, and one cherub on the other end. Of one piece with the mercy seat shall you make the cherubim on its two ends.The cherubim shall spread out their wings above, overshadowing the mercy seat with their wings, their faces one to another; toward the mercy seat shall the faces of the cherubim be.And you shall put the mercy seat on the top of the ark, and in the ark you shall put the testimony that I shall give you.There I will meet with you, and from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubim that are on the ark of the testimony, I will speak with you about all that I will give you in commandment for the people of Israel.“ You shall make a table of acacia wood. Two cubits shall be its length, a cubit its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height.You shall overlay it with pure gold and make a molding of gold around it.And you shall make a rim around it a handbreadth wide, and a molding of gold around the rim.And you shall make for it four rings of gold, and fasten the rings to the four corners at its four legs.Close to the frame the rings shall lie, as holders for the poles to carry the table.You shall make the poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold, and the table shall be carried with these.And you shall make its plates and dishes for incense, and its flagons and bowls with which to pour drink offerings; you shall make them of pure gold.And you shall set the bread of the Presence on the table before me regularly.“ You shall make a lampstand of pure gold. The lampstand shall be made of hammered work: its base, its stem, its cups, its calyxes, and its flowers shall be of one piece with it.
