1 καὶ ἐποίησεν Βεσελεηλ καὶ Ελιαβ καὶ πᾶς σοφὸς τῇ διανοίᾳ ᾧ ἐδόθη σοφία καὶ ἐπιστήμη ἐν αὐτοῖς συνιέναι ποιεῖν πάντα τὰ ἔργα κατὰ τὰ ἅγια καθήκοντα κατὰ πάντα ὅσα συνέταξεν κύριος 2 καὶ ἐκάλεσεν Μωυσῆς Βεσελεηλ καὶ Ελιαβ καὶ πάντας τοὺς ἔχοντας τὴν σοφίαν ᾧ ἔδωκεν ὁ θεὸς ἐπιστήμην ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ καὶ πάντας τοὺς ἑκουσίως βουλομένους προσπορεύεσθαι πρὸς τὰ ἔργα ὥστε συντελεῖν αὐτά 3 καὶ ἔλαβον παρὰ Μωυσῆ πάντα τὰ ἀφαιρέματα ἃ ἤνεγκαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ισραηλ εἰς πάντα τὰ ἔργα τοῦ ἁγίου ποιεῖν αὐτά καὶ αὐτοὶ προσεδέχοντο ἔτι τὰ προσφερόμενα παρὰ τῶν φερόντων τὸ πρωὶ πρωί 4 καὶ παρεγίνοντο πάντες οἱ σοφοὶ οἱ ποιοῦντες τὰ ἔργα τοῦ ἁγίου ἕκαστος κατὰ τὸ αὐτοῦ ἔργον ὃ αὐτοὶ ἠργάζοντο 5 καὶ εἶπαν πρὸς Μωυσῆν ὅτι πλῆθος φέρει ὁ λαὸς παρὰ τὰ ἔργα ὅσα συνέταξεν κύριος ποιῆσαι 6 καὶ προσέταξεν Μωυσῆς καὶ ἐκήρυξεν ἐν τῇ παρεμβολῇ λέγων ἀνὴρ καὶ γυνὴ μηκέτι ἐργαζέσθωσαν εἰς τὰς ἀπαρχὰς τοῦ ἁγίου καὶ ἐκωλύθη ὁ λαὸς ἔτι προσφέρειν 7 καὶ τὰ ἔργα ἦν αὐτοῖς ἱκανὰ εἰς τὴν κατασκευὴν ποιῆσαι καὶ προσκατέλιπον

1 And so the work was begun, by Beseleel, and Oöliab, and all the craftsmen to whom the Lord had given skill in their craft, so that they should know how to make workmanlike provision for the sanctuary’s needs, according to the prescriptions the Lord had given. 2 Moses summoned them, all these trained workmen who had been endowed by the Lord with skill, and had offered their services freely; 3 and he handed over to them the contributions which the sons of Israel made. Eagerly they set about their work, and every morning the people brought their gifts, 4 till at last the workmen must needs come to Moses, 5 and tell him, The people are offering more than is needed. 6 So Moses bade the crier give out that no man or woman should offer any more for the needs of the sanctuary; thus he put an end to the bringing of gifts, 7 because the contribution had already given them enough and to spare.

1 Fecit ergo Beseleel, et Ooliab, et omnis vir sapiens, quibus dedit Dominus sapientiam et intellectum, ut scirent fabre operari quæ in usus sanctuarii necessaria sunt, et quæ præcepit Dominus. 2 Cumque vocasset eos Moyses et omnem eruditum virum, cui dederat Dominus sapientiam, et qui sponte sua obtulerant se ad faciendum opus, 3 tradidit eis universa donaria filiorum Israël. Qui cum instarent operi, quotidie mane vota populus offerebat. 4 Unde artifices venire compulsi, 5 dixerunt Moysi: Plus offert populus quam necessarium est. 6 Jussit ergo Moyses præconis voce cantari: Nec vir, nec mulier quidquam offerat ultra in opere sanctuarii. Sicque cessatum est a muneribus offerendis, 7 eo quod oblata sufficerent et superabundarent.

8 καὶ ἐποίησεν πᾶς σοφὸς ἐν τοῖς ἐργαζομένοις τὰς στολὰς τῶν ἁγίων αἵ εἰσιν Ααρων τῷ ἱερεῖ καθὰ συνέταξεν κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ 9 καὶ ἐποίησαν τὴν ἐπωμίδα ἐκ χρυσίου καὶ ὑακίνθου καὶ πορφύρας καὶ κοκκίνου νενησμένου καὶ βύσσου κεκλωσμένης 10 καὶ ἐτμήθη τὰ πέταλα τοῦ χρυσίου τρίχες ὥστε συνυφᾶναι σὺν τῇ ὑακίνθῳ καὶ τῇ πορφύρᾳ καὶ σὺν τῷ κοκκίνῳ τῷ διανενησμένῳ καὶ σὺν τῇ βύσσῳ τῇ κεκλωσμένῃ ἔργον ὑφαντόν 11 ἐποίησαν αὐτὸ ἐπωμίδας συνεχούσας ἐξ ἀμφοτέρων τῶν μερῶν 12 ἔργον ὑφαντὸν εἰς ἄλληλα συμπεπλεγμένον κα{Q'} ἑαυτὸ ἐξ αὐτοῦ ἐποίησαν κατὰ τὴν αὐτοῦ ποίησιν ἐκ χρυσίου καὶ ὑακίνθου καὶ πορφύρας καὶ κοκκίνου διανενησμένου καὶ βύσσου κεκλωσμένης καθὰ συνέταξεν κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ 13 καὶ ἐποίησαν ἀμφοτέρους τοὺς λίθους τῆς σμαράγδου συμπεπορπημένους καὶ περισεσιαλωμένους χρυσίῳ γεγλυμμένους καὶ ἐκκεκολαμμένους ἐκκόλαμμα σφραγῖδος ἐκ τῶν ὀνομάτων τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ 14 καὶ ἐπέθηκεν αὐτοὺς ἐπὶ τοὺς ὤμους τῆς ἐπωμίδος λίθους μνημοσύνου τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ καθὰ συνέταξεν κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ 15 καὶ ἐποίησαν λογεῖον ἔργον ὑφαντὸν ποικιλίᾳ κατὰ τὸ ἔργον τῆς ἐπωμίδος ἐκ χρυσίου καὶ ὑακίνθου καὶ πορφύρας καὶ κοκκίνου διανενησμένου καὶ βύσσου κεκλωσμένης 16 τετράγωνον διπλοῦν ἐποίησαν τὸ λογεῖον σπιθαμῆς τὸ μῆκος καὶ σπιθαμῆς τὸ εὖρος διπλοῦν 17 καὶ συνυφάνθη ἐν αὐτῷ ὕφασμα κατάλιθον τετράστιχον στίχος λίθων σάρδιον καὶ τοπάζιον καὶ σμάραγδος ὁ στίχος ὁ εἷς 18 καὶ ὁ στίχος ὁ δεύτερος ἄνθραξ καὶ σάπφειρος καὶ ἴασπις 19 καὶ ὁ στίχος ὁ τρίτος λιγύριον καὶ ἀχάτης καὶ ἀμέθυστος

8 So, to carry out the fashioning of the tabernacle, all these skilful workmen made ten curtains, of twisted linen thread, embroidered with threads of blue and purple and scarlet twice-dyed, 9 all of the same size, twenty-eight cubits in length and four in width. 10 Then Beseleel joined five of these to each other, and the remaining five in the same way. 11 And on the sides of one set of curtains, at its extreme edge, he made loops of blue cord, and so with the other, 12 so that loop could meet loop and be fastened to it. 13 Afterwards he made fifty gold clasps, to catch the loops on the curtains, so as to make a single tent of them. 14 Next, he made eleven coverings of goats’ hair, to protect the tapestry over the tabernacle. 15 The measurements of all these coverings were the same; each was thirty cubits long and four cubits wide. 16 He joined together first five of these coverings, then the other six in their turn. 17 And he made fifty loops at the edge of the first set of coverings, then fifty at the edge of the other, to join them together, 18 and fifty brazen clasps, so that the coverings would be tied together, and the whole would form a single protecting roof. 19 He made a canopy, too, over the tabernacle, of rams’ fleeces dyed red, and another canopy over that of skins dyed violet.

8 Feceruntque omnes corde sapientes ad explendum opus tabernaculi, cortinas decem de bysso retorta, et hyacintho, et purpura, coccoque bis tincto, opere vario, et arte polymita: 9 quarum una habebat in longitudine viginti octo cubitos, et in latitudine quatuor; una mensura erat omnium cortinarum. 10 Conjunxitque cortinas quinque, alteram alteri, et alias quinque sibi invicem copulavit. 11 Fecit et ansas hyacinthinas in ora cortinæ unius ex utroque latere, et in ora cortinæ alterius similiter, 12 ut contra se invicem venirent ansæ, et mutuo jungerentur. 13 Unde et quinquaginta fudit circulos aureos, qui morderent cortinarum ansas, et fieret unum tabernaculum. 14 Fecit et saga undecim de pilis caprarum ad operiendum tectum tabernaculi: 15 unum sagum in longitudine habebat cubitos triginta, et in latitudine cubitos quatuor: unius mensuræ erant omnia saga: 16 quorum quinque junxit seorsum, et sex alia separatim. 17 Fecitque ansas quinquaginta in ora sagi unius, et quinquaginta in ora sagi alterius, ut sibi invicem jungerentur. 18 Et fibulas æneas quinquaginta, quibus necteretur tectum, ut unum pallium ex omnibus sagis fieret. 19 Fecit et opertorium tabernaculi de pellibus arietum rubricatis: aliudque desuper velamentum de pellibus janthinis.

20 καὶ ὁ στίχος ὁ τέταρτος χρυσόλιθος καὶ βηρύλλιον καὶ ὀνύχιον περικεκυκλωμένα χρυσίῳ καὶ συνδεδεμένα χρυσίῳ 21 καὶ οἱ λίθοι ἦσαν ἐκ τῶν ὀνομάτων τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ δώδεκα ἐκ τῶν ὀνομάτων αὐτῶν ἐγγεγραμμένα εἰς σφραγῖδας ἕκαστος ἐκ τοῦ ἑαυτοῦ ὀνόματος εἰς τὰς δώδεκα φυλάς 22 καὶ ἐποίησαν ἐπὶ τὸ λογεῖον κροσσοὺς συμπεπλεγμένους ἔργον ἐμπλοκίου ἐκ χρυσίου καθαροῦ 23 καὶ ἐποίησαν δύο ἀσπιδίσκας χρυσᾶς καὶ δύο δακτυλίους χρυσοῦς καὶ ἐπέθηκαν τοὺς δύο δακτυλίους τοὺς χρυσοῦς ἐ{P'} ἀμφοτέρας τὰς ἀρχὰς τοῦ λογείου 24 καὶ ἐπέθηκαν τὰ ἐμπλόκια ἐκ χρυσίου ἐπὶ τοὺς δακτυλίους ἐ{P'} ἀμφοτέρων τῶν μερῶν τοῦ λογείου 25 καὶ εἰς τὰς δύο συμβολὰς τὰ δύο ἐμπλόκια καὶ ἐπέθηκαν ἐπὶ τὰς δύο ἀσπιδίσκας καὶ ἐπέθηκαν ἐπὶ τοὺς ὤμους τῆς ἐπωμίδος ἐξ ἐναντίας κατὰ πρόσωπον 26 καὶ ἐποίησαν δύο δακτυλίους χρυσοῦς καὶ ἐπέθηκαν ἐπὶ τὰ δύο πτερύγια ἐ{P'} ἄκρου τοῦ λογείου ἐπὶ τὸ ἄκρον τοῦ ὀπισθίου τῆς ἐπωμίδος ἔσωθεν 27 καὶ ἐποίησαν δύο δακτυλίους χρυσοῦς καὶ ἐπέθηκαν ἐ{P'} ἀμφοτέρους τοὺς ὤμους τῆς ἐπωμίδος κάτωθεν αὐτοῦ κατὰ πρόσωπον κατὰ τὴν συμβολὴν ἄνωθεν τῆς συνυφῆς τῆς ἐπωμίδος 28 καὶ συνέσφιγξεν τὸ λογεῖον ἀπὸ τῶν δακτυλίων τῶν ἐ{P'} αὐτοῦ εἰς τοὺς δακτυλίους τῆς ἐπωμίδος συνεχομένους ἐκ τῆς ὑακίνθου συμπεπλεγμένους εἰς τὸ ὕφασμα τῆς ἐπωμίδος ἵνα μὴ χαλᾶται τὸ λογεῖον ἀπὸ τῆς ἐπωμίδος καθὰ συνέταξεν κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ 29 καὶ ἐποίησαν τὸν ὑποδύτην ὑπὸ τὴν ἐπωμίδα ἔργον ὑφαντὸν ὅλον ὑακίνθινον 30 τὸ δὲ περιστόμιον τοῦ ὑποδύτου ἐν τῷ μέσῳ διυφασμένον συμπλεκτόν ᾤαν ἔχον κύκλῳ τὸ περιστόμιον ἀδιάλυτον

20 He made upright frames, too, of acacia wood to support the tabernacle. 21 Each board was ten cubits high, and had a width of a cubit and a half; 22 and at the sides of it, two tenon-pieces jutted out, so that each might be mortised to the next; all the framework of the tabernacle he made in this way. 23 Twenty frames were on the south, facing the midday sun, 24 with forty silver sockets, two to each frame, fitting on each side at the corners, where the mortising finished. 25 There were twenty frames, too, on the side of the tabernacle which looked north, 26 with forty silver sockets, two to each frame. 27 For the western side of the tabernacle, looking towards the sea, he made six frames, 28 and two in addition, for the corners at the extreme end of the tabernacle. 29 These were joined together, from bottom to top, with a single kind of fastening; it was the same with the corners at each side, 30 so that altogether there were eight frames, with sixteen silver sockets, two at the foot of each.

20 Fecit et tabulas tabernaculi de lignis setim stantes. 21 Decem cubitorum erat longitudo tabulæ unius: et unum ac semis cubitum latitudo retinebat. 22 Binæ incastraturæ erant per singulas tabulas, ut altera alteri jungeretur. Sic fecit in omnibus tabernaculi tabulis. 23 E quibus viginti ad plagam meridianam erant contra austrum, 24 cum quadraginta basibus argenteis. Duæ bases sub una tabula ponebantur ex utraque parte angulorum, ubi incastraturæ laterum in angulis terminantur. 25 Ad plagam quoque tabernaculi, quæ respicit ad aquilonem, fecit viginti tabulas, 26 cum quadraginta basibus argenteis, duas bases per singulas tabulas. 27 Contra occidentem vero, id est, ad eam partem tabernaculi quæ mare respicit, fecit sex tabulas, 28 et duas alias per singulos angulos tabernaculi retro: 29 quæ junctæ erant a deorsum usque sursum, et in unam compaginem pariter ferebantur. Ita fecit ex utraque parte per angulos: 30 ut octo essent simul tabulæ, et haberent bases argenteas sedecim, binas scilicet bases sub singulis tabulis.

31 καὶ ἐποίησαν ἐπὶ τοῦ λώματος τοῦ ὑποδύτου κάτωθεν ὡς ἐξανθούσης ῥόας ῥοίσκους ἐξ ὑακίνθου καὶ πορφύρας καὶ κοκκίνου νενησμένου καὶ βύσσου κεκλωσμένης 32 καὶ ἐποίησαν κώδωνας χρυσοῦς καὶ ἐπέθηκαν τοὺς κώδωνας ἐπὶ τὸ λῶμα τοῦ ὑποδύτου κύκλῳ ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν ῥοίσκων 33 κώδων χρυσοῦς καὶ ῥοίσκος ἐπὶ τοῦ λώματος τοῦ ὑποδύτου κύκλῳ εἰς τὸ λειτουργεῖν καθὰ συνέταξεν κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ 34 καὶ ἐποίησαν χιτῶνας βυσσίνους ἔργον ὑφαντὸν Ααρων καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ

31 Then he made five poles of acacia wood, to hold the frames together on one side of the tabernacle, 32 and five more to connect the frames on the opposite side, and on the western side of the tabernacle, looking seawards, five more still. 33 And one pole he made that should reach right along the frames from end to end. 34 The sockets he made of cast silver; the frames themselves he gilded over, and made rings of gold through which the poles, those too plated with gold, could pass.

31 Fecit et vectes de lignis setim, quinque ad continendas tabulas unius lateris tabernaculi, 32 et quinque alios ad alterius lateris coaptandas tabulas: et extra hos, quinque alios vectes ad occidentalem plagam tabernaculi contra mare. 33 Fecit quoque vectem alium, qui per medias tabulas ab angulo usque ad angulum perveniret. 34 Ipsa autem tabulata deauravit, fusis basibus earum argenteis. Et circulos eorum fecit aureos, per quos vectes induci possent: quos et ipsos laminis aureis operuit.

35 καὶ τὰς κιδάρεις ἐκ βύσσου καὶ τὴν μίτραν ἐκ βύσσου καὶ τὰ περισκελῆ ἐκ βύσσου κεκλωσμένης 36 καὶ τὰς ζώνας αὐτῶν ἐκ βύσσου καὶ ὑακίνθου καὶ πορφύρας καὶ κοκκίνου νενησμένου ἔργον ποικιλτοῦ ὃν τρόπον συνέταξεν κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ 37 καὶ ἐποίησαν τὸ πέταλον τὸ χρυσοῦν ἀφόρισμα τοῦ ἁγίου χρυσίου καθαροῦ καὶ ἔγραψεν ἐ{P'} αὐτοῦ γράμματα ἐκτετυπωμένα σφραγῖδος ἁγίασμα κυρίῳ 38 καὶ ἐπέθηκαν ἐ{P'} αὐτὸ λῶμα ὑακίνθινον ὥστε ἐπικεῖσθαι ἐπὶ τὴν μίτραν ἄνωθεν ὃν τρόπον συνέταξεν κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ

35 He made a veil, too, out of twisted linen thread, worked in threads of blue and purple and scarlet twice-dyed, with all the embroiderer’s art, 36 and four posts of acacia wood, gilded and with gilt capitals, but set in silver sockets. 37 And he made a screen out of twisted linen thread, embroidered with threads of blue and purple and scarlet twice-dyed, for the entrance of the tabernacle, 38 and five posts of acacia wood which he gilded over, capitals and all, fitting into sockets of moulded bronze.

35 Fecit et velum de hyacintho, et purpura, vermiculo, ac bysso retorta, opere polymitario, varium atque distinctum: 36 et quatuor columnas de lignis setim, quas cum capitibus deauravit, fusis basibus earum argenteis. 37 Fecit et tentorium in introitu tabernaculi ex hyacintho, purpura, vermiculo, byssoque retorta, opere plumarii: 38 et columnas quinque cum capitibus suis, quas operuit auro, basesque earum fudit æneas.
