fra Biblica1Alle andre kunstnere og kunsthåndværkere med gudgivne evner skal hjælpe Betzalel og Oholiab med at konstruere og indrette helligdommen, sådan som Herren har befalet.”2Moses samlede nu Betzalel, Oholiab og de øvrige kunstnere og kunsthåndværkere med gudgivne evner, som ønskede at være med til arbejdet,3og han overlod dem alle de materialer, som folket havde givet til helligdommens opførelse. De frivillige gaver blev ved med at strømme ind, dag efter dag,4og arbejdet gik godt fremad. En dag kom alle kunsthåndværkerne fra de forskellige arbejdsgrene5til Moses og sagde: „Vi har rigeligt med materialer til arbejdet, men folk bliver ved med at komme med mere.”6Så lod Moses bekendtgøre i hele lejren: „I skal ikke bringe flere materialer!” Så holdt folk op med at komme med flere gaver,7og der var mere end nok til at fuldføre alt arbejdet.
Opførelsen af boligen
8De dygtige kunsthåndværkere begyndte med at lave de ti stofbaner af fintvævet linned med broderede keruber i blåt, violet og purpurrødt garn.9De ti stofbaner havde alle samme mål, 12,6 m i længden og 1,8 m i bredden.10De blev syet sammen fem og fem, så de dannede to store stykker teltdug.11Så blev der lavet løkker af blåt garn i kanten af den sidste bane på hvert af de to sammensyede stykker,1250 løkker på hvert stykke, så de sad over for hinanden.13Derefter blev der lavet 50 guldkroge til at holde løkkerne sammen to og to, således at de to stykker dannede en enhed.14Yderteltdugen blev lavet af 11 gedehårstæpper.15Alle tæppestykkerne havde samme mål, 13,5 m i længden og 1,8 m i bredden.16De fem af tæpperne blev syet sammen til ét stykke, og de seks andre til et andet stykke.17Så blev der lavet 50 løkker på hver af de to stykkers yderbaner18og 50 små bronzehægter til at holde løkkerne sammen, så de to stykker dannede en enhed.19Ovenover blev der udspændt en presenning af rødfarvede vædderskind, og ovenpå igen en presenning af kraftigt læder.20Til boligens sider blev der lavet moduler af akacietræ.21Modulernes mål var 4,5 m i højden og 67 cm i bredden,22og de havde hver to tapper forneden.23Boligens sydside bestod af 20 moduler,24som stod på 40 sølvsokler, to sokler under hvert modul.25-26Nordsiden bestod også af 20 moduler på 40 sølvsokler, to sokler under hvert modul.27Boligens vestside, som var bagsiden, bestod af seks moduler28plus et særligt modul i hvert hjørne.29Hjørnemodulerne blev holdt sammen med beslag forneden og med en ring foroven.30Vestsiden bestod altså i alt af otte moduler med 16 sølvsokler nedenunder, to sokler for hvert modul.31-32Der blev også lavet 15 sæt tværstænger af akacietræ til at holde modulerne sammen, fem sæt til hver af de tre sider af boligen.33Den midterste af de fem tværstænger blev fastspændt halvvejs oppe på vægmodulerne og nåede fra det ene hjørne til det andet.34Både moduler og tværstænger blev belagt med guld, og de ringe, stængerne sad fast i, blev støbt i rent guld.35Teltets indre forhæng blev lavet af fintvævet linned med kunstnerisk broderede keruber i blåt, violet og purpurrødt garn.36Der blev lavet fire stolper af akacietræ belagt med guld, som blev rejst på fire sokler af sølv. Foroven på hver stolpe var der en krog af guld, som forhænget blev hængt op på.37Til sidst blev der lavet et forhæng til boligens indgang. Forhænget var lavet af fintvævet linned med blå, violette og purpurrøde broderier på.38Det blev hængt op på fem stolper, som hver havde en krog foroven. Stolperne, deres hoveder og tværstænger blev belagt med guld, og deres fem sokler var støbt i bronze.
2. Mosebog 36
English Standard Version
fra Crossway1“Bezalel and Oholiab and every craftsman in whom the Lord has put skill and intelligence to know how to do any work in the construction of the sanctuary shall work in accordance with all that the Lord has commanded.” (2.Mos 28,3; 2.Mos 31,6; 2.Mos 35,10; 2.Mos 35,25)2And Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab and every craftsman in whose mind the Lord had put skill, everyone whose heart stirred him up to come to do the work. (2.Mos 25,2)3And they received from Moses all the contribution that the people of Israel had brought for doing the work on the sanctuary. They still kept bringing him freewill offerings every morning, (2.Mos 35,24; 2.Mos 35,29)4so that all the craftsmen who were doing every sort of task on the sanctuary came, each from the task that he was doing,5and said to Moses, “The people bring much more than enough for doing the work that the Lord has commanded us to do.” (2.Krøn 31,10; 2.Kor 8,2)6So Moses gave command, and word was proclaimed throughout the camp, “Let no man or woman do anything more for the contribution for the sanctuary.” So the people were restrained from bringing, (2.Mos 36,3)7for the material they had was sufficient to do all the work, and more.8And all the craftsmen among the workmen made the tabernacle with ten curtains. They were made of fine twined linen and blue and purple and scarlet yarns, with cherubim skillfully worked. (2.Mos 26,1)9The length of each curtain was twenty-eight cubits,[1] and the breadth of each curtain four cubits. All the curtains were the same size.10He[2] coupled five curtains to one another, and the other five curtains he coupled to one another.11He made loops of blue on the edge of the outermost curtain of the first set. Likewise he made them on the edge of the outermost curtain of the second set.12He made fifty loops on the one curtain, and he made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that was in the second set. The loops were opposite one another.13And he made fifty clasps of gold, and coupled the curtains one to the other with clasps. So the tabernacle was a single whole.14He also made curtains of goats’ hair for a tent over the tabernacle. He made eleven curtains.15The length of each curtain was thirty cubits, and the breadth of each curtain four cubits. The eleven curtains were the same size.16He coupled five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves.17And he made fifty loops on the edge of the outermost curtain of the one set, and fifty loops on the edge of the other connecting curtain.18And he made fifty clasps of bronze to couple the tent together that it might be a single whole.19And he made for the tent a covering of tanned rams’ skins and goatskins.20Then he made the upright frames for the tabernacle of acacia wood. (2.Mos 25,5; 2.Mos 25,28; 2.Mos 26,15; 2.Mos 30,5)21Ten cubits was the length of a frame, and a cubit and a half the breadth of each frame.22Each frame had two tenons for fitting together. He did this for all the frames of the tabernacle.23The frames for the tabernacle he made thus: twenty frames for the south side.24And he made forty bases of silver under the twenty frames, two bases under one frame for its two tenons, and two bases under the next frame for its two tenons.25For the second side of the tabernacle, on the north side, he made twenty frames26and their forty bases of silver, two bases under one frame and two bases under the next frame.27For the rear of the tabernacle westward he made six frames.28He made two frames for corners of the tabernacle in the rear.29And they were separate beneath but joined at the top, at the first ring. He made two of them this way for the two corners.30There were eight frames with their bases of silver: sixteen bases, under every frame two bases.31He made bars of acacia wood, five for the frames of the one side of the tabernacle,32and five bars for the frames of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the frames of the tabernacle at the rear westward.33And he made the middle bar to run from end to end halfway up the frames.34And he overlaid the frames with gold, and made their rings of gold for holders for the bars, and overlaid the bars with gold.35He made the veil of blue and purple and scarlet yarns and fine twined linen; with cherubim skillfully worked into it he made it. (2.Mos 26,31)36And for it he made four pillars of acacia and overlaid them with gold. Their hooks were of gold, and he cast for them four bases of silver.37He also made a screen for the entrance of the tent, of blue and purple and scarlet yarns and fine twined linen, embroidered with needlework,38and its five pillars with their hooks. He overlaid their capitals, and their fillets were of gold, but their five bases were of bronze.
