1. Moses called together the whole community of the people of Israel and said to them, “This is what the Lord has commanded you to do:

2. You have six days in which to do your work, but the seventh day is to be sacred, a solemn day of rest dedicated to me, the Lord. Anyone who does any work on that day is to be put to death.

3. Do not even light a fire in your homes on the Sabbath.”

4. Moses said to all the people of Israel, “This is what the Lord has commanded:

5. Make an offering to the Lord. Everyone who wishes to do so is to bring an offering of gold, silver, or bronze;

6. fine linen; blue, purple, and red wool; cloth made of goats' hair;

7. rams' skin dyed red; fine leather; acacia wood;

8. oil for the lamps; spices for the anointing oil and for the sweet-smelling incense;

9. carnelians and other jewels to be set in the High Priest's ephod and in his breastpiece.
