¹“Bezalel and Oholiab shall work with every wise-hearted man, in whom Yahweh has put wisdom and understanding to know how to work all the work for the service of the sanctuary, according to all that Yahweh has commanded.”

¹Derfor skal Bezal'el og Oholiab og alle andre kunstforstandige Mænd, hvem HERREN har givet Kunstsnilde og Kløgt, så de forstår sig på Arbejdet, udføre alt Arbejdet ved Helligdommens Opførelse i Overensstemmelse med alt, hvad HERREN har påbudt.

²Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab, and every wise-hearted man, in whose heart Yahweh had put wisdom, even everyone whose heart stirred him up to come to the work to do it:

²Derpå tilkaldte Moses Bezal'el og Oholiab og alle de kunstforstandige Mænd, hvem HERREN havde givet Kunstsnilde, alle dem, som i deres Hjerte følte sig tilskyndet til at give sig i Lag med Udførelsen af Arbejdet.

³and 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.

³Og de modtog af Moses hele den Offerydelse, Israeliterne var kommet med til Arbejdet med Helligdommens Opførelse, for at det kunde blive udført. Men de blev ved at komme med frivillige Gaver til ham, Morgen efter Morgen.

⁴All the wise men, who performed all the work of the sanctuary, each came from his work which they did.

⁴Da kom alle de kunstforstandige Mænd, der udførte alt Arbejdet ved Helligdommen, hver fra den Del af Arbejdet, han var beskæftiget med,

⁵They spoke to Moses, saying, “The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work which Yahweh commanded to make.”

⁵og sagde til Moses: "Folket kommer med mere, end der kræves til Udførelsen af det Arbejde, HERREN har påbudt!"

⁶Moses gave commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, “Let neither man nor woman make anything else for the offering for the sanctuary.” So the people were restrained from bringing.

⁶Da bød Moses, at følgende Kundgørelse skulde udråbes i Lejren: "Hverken Mænd eller Kvinder skal yde mere som Offergave til Helligdommen!" Så hørte Folket op med at komme med Gaver.

⁷For the stuff they had was sufficient for all the work to make it, and too much.

⁷Og det, der var ydet, var dem nok til at udføre hele Arbejdet, ja mer end nok.

⁸All the wise-hearted men among those who did the work made the tabernacle with ten curtains; of fine twined linen, blue, purple, and scarlet, with cherubim, the work of the skillful workman, they made them.

⁸Så lavede alle de kunstforstandige Mænd blandt dem, der deltog i Arbejdet, Boligen, ti Tæpper af tvundet Byssus, violet og rødt Purpurgarn og karmoisinrødt Garn; han lavede dem med Keruber på i Kunstvævning,

⁹The length of each curtain was twenty-eight cubits, and the breadth of each curtain four cubits. All the curtains had one measure.

⁹hvert Tæppe otte og tyve Alen langt og fire Alen bredt; alle Tæpperne havde samme Mål.

¹⁰He coupled five curtains to one another, and the other five curtains he coupled one to another.

¹⁰Han syede Tæpperne sammen, fem og fem.

¹¹He made loops of blue on the edge of the one curtain from the edge in the coupling. Likewise he made in the edge of the curtain that was outmost in the second coupling.

¹¹I Kanten af det ene Tæppe, det yderste i det ene sammensyede Stykke, satte han Løkker af violet Purpurgarn, og ligeledes satte han Løkker i Kanten af det yderste Tæppe i det andet sammensyede Stykke;

¹²He made fifty loops in the one curtain, and he made fifty loops in the edge of the curtain that was in the second coupling. The loops were opposite one to another.

¹²han satte halvtredsindstyve Løkker på det ene Tæppe og halvtredsindstyve Løkker i Kanten af det tilsvarende Tæppe i det andet sammensyede Stykke, Løkke lige over for Løkke.

¹³He made fifty clasps of gold, and coupled the curtains one to another with the clasps: so the tabernacle was a unit.

¹³Derpå lavede han halvtredsindstyve Guldkroge til at forbinde Tæpperne med hinanden, så at Boligen udgjorde et Hele.

¹⁴He made curtains of goats’ hair for a covering over the tabernacle. He made them eleven curtains.

¹⁴Fremdeles lavede han Tæpper af Gedehår til et Teltdække uden om Boligen, og her lavede han elleve Tæpper,

¹⁵The length of each curtain was thirty cubits, and four cubits the breadth of each curtain. The eleven curtains had one measure.

¹⁵hvert Tæppe tredive Alen langt og fire Alen bredt; alle Tæpperne havde samme Mål.

¹⁶He coupled five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves.

¹⁶De fem af Tæpperne syede han sammen for sig og de seks for sig,

¹⁷He made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that was outmost in the coupling, and he made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain which was outmost in the second coupling.

¹⁷og han satte halvtredsindstyve Løkker i Kanten af det yderste Tæppe i det ene sammensyede Stykke og halvtredsindstyve Løkker i Kanten af det tilsvarende Tæppe i det andet sammensyede Stykke.

¹⁸He made fifty clasps of brass to couple the tent together, that it might be a unit.

¹⁸Og han lavede halvtredsindstyve Kobberkroge til at sammenføje Teltdækket med, så det udgjorde et Hele.

¹⁹He made a covering for the tent of rams’ skins dyed red, and a covering of sea cow hides above.

¹⁹Fremdeles lavede han over Teltdækket et Dække af rødfarvede Væderskind og derover endnu et Dække af Tahasjskind.

²⁰He made the boards for the tabernacle of acacia wood, standing up.

²⁰Derpå lavede han Brædderne til Boligen af Akacietræ til at stå op,

²¹Ten cubits was the length of a board, and a cubit and a half the breadth of each board.

²¹hvert Bræt ti Alen højt og halvanden Alen bredt,

²²Each board had two tenons, joined one to another. He made all the boards of the tabernacle this way.

²²og på hvert Bræt to indbyrdes forbundne Tapper; således indrettede han det ved alle Boligens Brædder.

²³He made the boards for the tabernacle: twenty boards for the south side southward.

²³Af Brædderne, som han lavede til Boligen, var tyve til Sydsiden,

²⁴He made forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards; two sockets under one board for its two tenons, and two sockets under another board for its two tenons.

²⁴og til de tyve Brædder lavede han fyrretyve Fodstykker af Sølv, to Fodstykker til de to Tapper på hvert Bræt.

²⁵For the second side of the tabernacle, on the north side, he made twenty boards,

²⁵Andre tyve Brædder lavede han til Boligens anden Side, som vendte mod Nord,

²⁶and their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.

²⁶med fyrretyve Fodstykker af Sølv, to Fodstykker til hvert Bræt.

²⁷For the far part of the tabernacle westward he made six boards.

²⁷Og til Bagsiden, som vendte mod Vest, lavede han seks Brædder.

²⁸He made two boards for the corners of the tabernacle in the far part.

²⁸Til Boligens Baghjørner lavede han to Brædder,

²⁹They were double beneath, and in the same way they were all the way to its top to one ring. He did this to both of them in the two corners.

²⁹der bestod af to Stykker forneden og ligeledes af to Stykker foroven, indtil den første Ring; således indrettede han dem begge for at danne de to Hjørner.

³⁰There were eight boards, and their sockets of silver, sixteen sockets; under every board two sockets.

³⁰Altså blev der til Bagsiden otte Brædder med tilhørende seksten Fodstykker af Sølv, to til hvert Bræt.

³¹He made bars of acacia wood; five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,
