Êxodo, 31

1. O Senhor disse a Moisés:

1. And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

2. “Eis que chamei por seu nome Bese­leel, filho de Uri, filho de Hur, da tribo de Judá.

2. See, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah:

3. Eu o enchi do espírito divino para lhe dar sabedoria, inteligência e habilidade para toda a sorte de obras:

3. And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,

4. invenções, trabalho de ouro, de prata, de bronze,

4. To devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,

5. gravuras em pedras de engastes, trabalho em madeira e para executar toda a sorte de obras.

5. And in cutting of stones, to set [them], and in carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship.

6. Associei-lhe Ooliab, filho de Aquisamec, da tribo de Dã. E dou a sabedoria ao coração de todos os homens inteligentes, a fim de que executem tudo o que te ordenei;

6. And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan: and in the hearts of all that are wise hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded thee;

7. a tenda de reunião, a arca da aliança, a tampa que a recobre e todos os móveis da tenda;

7. The tabernacle of the congregation, and the ark of the testimony, and the mercy seat that [is] thereupon, and all the furniture of the tabernacle,

8. a mesa e todos os seus acessórios, o candelabro de ouro puro e todos os seus acessórios,­ o altar dos perfumes,

8. And the table and his furniture, and the pure candlestick with all his furniture, and the altar of incense,

9. o altar dos holocaustos, com todos os seus utensílios e a bacia com seu pedestal;

9. And the altar of burnt offering with all his furniture, and the laver and his foot,

10. as vestes litúrgicas, os ornamentos sagrados para o sacerdote Aarão, as vestes de seus filhos para as funções sacerdotais;

10. And the cloths of service, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister in the priest's office,

11. o óleo da unção e o incenso perfumado para o santuário. Eles se conformarão em tudo às ordens que te dei”.

11. And the anointing oil, and sweet incense for the holy [place]: according to all that I have commanded thee shall they do.

12. O Senhor disse a Moisés:

12. And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

13. “Dize aos israelitas: observareis os meus sábados, porque esse é um sinal perpétuo entre mim e vós, para que saibais que eu sou o Senhor, que vos santifico.

13. Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep: for it [is] a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that [ye] may know that I [am] the LORD that doth sanctify you.

14. Guardareis o sábado, pois ele vos deve ser sagrado. Aquele que o violar será morto; quem fizer naquele dia uma obra qualquer será cortado do meio do seu povo.

14. Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it [is] holy unto you: every one that defileth it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever doeth [any] work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.

15. E se trabalhará durante seis dias, mas o sétimo dia será um dia de repouso completo consagrado ao Senhor. Se alguém trabalhar no dia de sábado será punido de morte.

15. Six days may work be done; but in the seventh [is] the sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth [any] work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death.

16. Os israe­litas guardarão o sábado, celebrando-o de idade em idade com um pacto perpétuo.

16. Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, [for] a perpetual covenant.

17. Esse será um sinal perpétuo entre mim e os israelitas, porque o Senhor fez o céu e a terra em seis dias e no sétimo dia ele cessou de trabalhar e descansou”.

17. It [is] a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for [in] six days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.

18. Tendo o Senhor acabado de falar a Moisés sobre o monte Sinai, entregou-lhe as duas tábuas do testemunho, tábuas de pedra, escritas com o dedo de Deus.

18. And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of communing with him upon mount Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God.
