And Moses said vnto the children of Israel, See, the Lord hath called by name Bezaleel the sonne of Uri, the sonne of Hur, of the tribe of Iudah.

And he hath filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisedome, in vnderstanding, and in knowledge, and in all maner of workemanship:

And to deuise curious workes, to worke in gold, & in siluer, and in brasse,

And in the cutting of stones, to set them, and in caruing of wood, to make any maner of cunning worke.

And he hath put in his heart that he may teach, both he and Aholiab the sonne of Ahisamach of the tribe of Dan.

Them hath hee filled with wisedome of heart, to worke all manner of worke, of the ingrauer, and of the cunning workeman, and of the embroiderer, in blew, and in purple, in scarlet, and in fine linnen, and of the weauer, euen of them that doe any worke, and of those that deuise cunning worke.

Then wrought Bezaleel and Aholiab, and euery wise hearted man, in whome the Lord put wisedome and vnderstanding, to know how to worke all maner of worke for the seruice of the Sanctuary, according to all that the Lord had commanded.

And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab, and euery wise hearted man, in whose heart the Lord had put wisedome, euen euery one whose heart stirred him vp to come vnto the worke to doe it.

And they receiued of Moses all the offering which the children of Israel had brought, for the worke of the seruice of the Sanctuarie, to make it withall. And they brought yet vnto him free offerings euery morning.

And al the wisemen that wrought all the worke of the Sanctuary, came euery man from his worke which they made.

And they spake vnto Moses, saying, The people bring much more then enough for the seruice of the worke which the Lord commaunded to make.

And Moses gaue commandement, and they caused it to bee proclaimed throughout the campe, saying, Let neither man nor woman make any more worke for the offering of the Sanctuarie: so the people were restrained from bringing.

For the stuffe they had was sufficient for all the worke to make it, and too much.
