36:2 Moses summoned 7 Bezalel and Oholiab and every skilled person in whom 8 the Lord had put skill – everyone whose heart stirred him 9 to volunteer 10 to do the work, 36:3 and they received from Moses all the offerings the Israelites had brought to do 11 the work for the service of the sanctuary, and they still continued to bring him a freewill offering each morning. 12 36:4 So all the skilled people who were doing all the work on the sanctuary came from the work 13 they were doing 36:5 and told Moses, “The people are bringing much more than 14 is needed for the completion 15 of the work which the Lord commanded us to do!” 16
36:6 Moses instructed them to take 17 his message 18 throughout the camp, saying, “Let no man or woman do any more work for the offering for the sanctuary.” So the people were restrained from bringing any more. 19 36:7 Now the materials were more than enough 20 for them to do all the work. 21
36:8 All the skilled among those who were doing the work made the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twisted linen and blue and purple and scarlet; they were made with cherubim that were the work of an artistic designer. 36:9 The length of one curtain was forty-two feet, and the width of one curtain was six feet – the same size for each of the curtains.
