Moses spoke to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, saying, "This is the thing which the LORD has commanded, saying,

'^(C1)Take from among you a ^(F1)contribution to the LORD; whoever is of a willing heart is to bring it as the LORD'S ^(F1)contribution: gold, silver, and ^(F2)bronze,

and ^(F1)violet, purple, and scarlet material, fine linen, goats' hair,

and rams' skins ^(F1)dyed red, and ^(F2)fine leather, and acacia wood,

and oil for lighting, and spices for the anointing oil, and for the fragrant incense,

and onyx stones and setting stones for the ephod and for the ^(F1)breastpiece.

'^(C1)Have every skillful person among you come and make all that the LORD has commanded:

the ^(F1)(C1)tabernacle, its tent and its covering, its hooks and its boards, its bars, its pillars, and its bases;

the ^(C1)ark and its poles, the ^(F1)atoning cover, and the covering curtain;

the ^(C1)table and its poles, and all its ^(F1)utensils, and the bread of the ^(F2)Presence;

the ^(C1)lampstand also for the light and its utensils and its lamps, and the oil for the light;

and the ^(C1)altar of incense and its poles, and the ^(C2)anointing oil and the ^(C3)fragrant incense, and the curtain for the doorway at the ^(F1)entrance of the tabernacle;

^(C1)the altar of burnt offering with its ^(F1)bronze grating, its poles, and all its ^(F2)utensils, the basin and its stand;

^(C1)the hangings of the courtyard, its pillars and its bases, and the curtain for the gate of the courtyard;

the pegs of the tabernacle and the pegs of the courtyard and their ropes;

the ^(F1)(C1)woven garments for ministering in the Holy Place, the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments of his sons, to serve as priests.'"

Then all the congregation of the sons of Israel departed from Moses' presence.

And ^(C1)everyone whose heart ^(F1)stirred him and everyone whose spirit ^(F2)moved him came and brought the LORD'S ^(F3)contribution for the work of the tent of meeting and for all its service, and for the holy garments.

Then all ^(F1)whose hearts moved them, both men and women, came and brought brooches and ^(F2)earrings and signet rings and bracelets, all articles of gold; so did everyone who ^(F3)presented an offering of gold to the LORD.

Everyone ^(F1)who was in possession of violet, purple, or scarlet material or fine linen or goats' hair, or rams' skins ^(F2)dyed red or fine leather, brought them.

Everyone who could make a ^(F1)contribution of silver and ^(F2)bronze brought the LORD'S ^(F1)contribution; and everyone ^(F3)who was in possession of acacia wood for any work of the service brought it.

And all the ^(F1)skilled women spun with their hands, and brought what they had spun, in violet, purple, and scarlet material, and in fine linen.

And all the women whose heart ^(F1)stirred with a skill spun the goats' hair.

The rulers, moreover, brought the onyx stones and the stones for setting for the ephod and for the ^(F1)breastpiece;

and ^(C1)the spice and the oil for the light and for the anointing oil, and for the fragrant incense.

The ^(F1)Israelites, all the men and women, whose heart ^(F2)moved them to bring material for all the work, which the LORD had commanded through Moses to be done, brought a ^(F3)(C1)voluntary offering to the LORD.
