³⁰ Then Moses said to Bnei-Yisrael, “See, Adonai has called by name Bezalel son of Uri son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah. ³¹ He has filled him with the Ruach of God, with wisdom, understanding and knowledge, in all manner of craftsmanship, ³² to make ingenious designs, to work in gold, silver and bronze, ³³ as well as cutting gemstones for setting, wood carving, to make all kinds of skillful craftsmanship. ³⁴ He has also placed in his heart the ability to teach—both he and Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan. ³⁵ He has filled them with wisdom of heart to forge all the works of an engraver, an artisan, and an embroiderer in blue, purple, scarlet and in fine linen, as well as weaving—they can perform every craft and ingenious designs.

More Than Enough!

36 “So Bezalel and Oholiab are to work, along with every wise-hearted man in whom Adonai has placed insight and understanding to know how to perform all the labor for the service of the Sanctuary, according to everything Adonai has commanded.”

² Then Moses called Bezalel, Oholiab and all the wise-hearted men in whose minds Adonai had set wisdom, along with everyone whose heart stirred him up to come do the work. ³ They received from Moses the entire offering that Bnei-Yisrael had brought for the work of the service of the Sanctuary, to build it. They brought freewill offerings to him morning after morning. ⁴ Then all the skilled men who were doing all the work of the Sanctuary came, one by one from the work he was doing, ⁵ and said to Moses, “The people are bringing much more than enough for the work of this construction that Adonai has commanded to be done.”

⁶ So Moses gave an order, and they proclaimed it throughout the camp saying, “Let neither man nor woman make anything else as an offering for the Sanctuary.” So the people were restrained from bringing more. ⁷ For the work material they had was sufficient for all the work, with much left over.
