¶ The callynge of Bezaleel and Ahaliab the workemen. The Sabboth cōmaūded. The tables of stone ginen Moses.
CAPI. XXXI.
ANd the Lorde spake vnto Moses say∣enge: [unspec A] beholde, * 1.1 I haue called by name, Bezaleel the sonne of Ury; the sonne of Hur of the trybe of Iuda. And I haue fylled hym with the spiryte of God, in * 1.2 wysdome, and vnderstandynge / in knowledge / and in all maner worke / to fynde out subtyll feates, and to worke in golde, syluer, and brasse, and in the crafte to set stoones, & to carue in tym∣bre, and to worke in al maner workmanshyp. And behold, I haue gyuen hym to be his cō∣panion Ahaliab the sonne of Ahisamach of the trybe of Dan, and in the hertes of al that are wyse herted / I haue put wysdome, to make al that I haue cōmaunded the: the ta∣bernacle [unspec B] of wytnesse, the arke of wytnes, and the mercyseate that is there vpon: and al the ornamentes of the Tabernacle, and the table and his ornamentes: & the pure candelstycke with al his apparel, and the aulter of insens: and the aulter of burntoffrynges / and al his vessels, and the lauer with his foote. The ve∣stimentes to minystre in, and the holye gar∣mentes for Aaron the preest, and the garmen tes of his sonnes to minystre in, & the anoyn∣tynge oyle: and swete sence for the sanctuary: accordyng to al that I haue cōmaunded the, shall they do.
And the Lorde spake vnto Moses, say∣enge: [unspec C] Speake vnto the chyldren of Israell, and saye: In any wyse se that ye kepe my * 1.3 Sabboths / for it is a sygne bytwene me, & you in your generacyons for to knowe, that I the Lorde am he that doeth sanctifye you. * 1.4 Kepe my Sabboth therfore, for it is holye vnto you. He that defyleth it, shalbe stayne.
For whosoeuer worketh therin, the same soule shalbe roted out from amonge his peo∣ple, Sixe dayes shall men worke. And in the seuenth daye is the Sabboth of the hoolye reste of the Lorde.
Whosoeuer doth any worke in the Sab∣both [unspec D] daye, shall dye: wherfore let the chyldren of Israel kepe the Sabboth / that they ob∣serue it thorowout theyr generacyons, that it be an appoyntemēt for euer. For it is a sygne bytwene me, & the chyldrē of Israel for euer. * 1.5 For in syx dayes the lorde made heuen, and earth, and in the seuenth day he rested / & was refreshed. And when the Lorde had made an ende of the cōmonyng with Moses vpon the mounte Sinay, * 1.6 he gaue hym two tables of wytnes: euen tables of stone, wrytten with the ☞ fynger of God.
