Exodus 31 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

Exo 31:1The LORD spoke to Moshe, saying,
Exo 31:2"Behold, I have called by name Betzal'el the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Yehudah:
Exo 31:3and I have filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,
Exo 31:4to devise skillful works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,
Exo 31:5and in cutting of stones for setting, and in carving of wood, to work in all manner of workmanship.
Exo 31:6I, behold, I have appointed with him Oholi'av, the son of Achisamakh, of the tribe of Dan; and in the heart of all who are wise-hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded you:
Exo 31:7the tent of meeting, the ark of the testimony, the mercy seat that is on it, all the furniture of the Tent,
Exo 31:8the table and its vessels, the pure menorah with all its vessels, the altar of incense,
Exo 31:9the altar of burnt offering with all its vessels, the basin and its base,
Exo 31:10the finely worked garments -- the holy garments for Aharon the Kohen -- the garments of his sons to minister in the Kohen's office,
Exo 31:11the anointing oil, and the incense of sweet spices for the holy place: according to all that I have commanded you they shall do."

The Sign of the Sabbath

Exo 31:12The LORD spoke to Moshe, saying,
Exo 31:13"Speak also to the children of Yisra'el, saying, 'Most assuredly you shall keep my Shabbatot: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that you may know that I am the LORD who sanctifies you.
Exo 31:14You shall keep the Shabbat therefore; for it is holy to you. Everyone who profanes it shall surely be put to death; for whoever does any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
Exo 31:15Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day is a Shabbat of solemn rest, holy to the LORD. Whoever does any work on the day of Shabbat shall surely be put to death.
Exo 31:16Therefore the children of Yisra'el shall keep the Shabbat, to observe the Shabbat throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant.
Exo 31:17It is a sign between me and the children of Yisra'el forever; for in six days the LORD made heaven and eretz, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.'"
Exo 31:18He gave to Moshe, when he finished speaking with him on Mount Sinai, the two tablets of the testimony, stone tablets, written with God's finger.
