26. And all the women who were skilled and wanted to help made cloth from the goat hair.
27. The leaders brought onyx stones and other jewels. These stones and jewels were put on the ephod and judgment pouch of the priest.
28. The people also brought spices and olive oil. These things were used for the sweet-smelling incense, the anointing oil, and the oil for the lamps.
29. All the Israelites who wanted to help brought gifts to the Lord. They gave these gifts freely, because they wanted to. These gifts were used to make everything the Lord had commanded Moses and the people to make.
30. Then Moses said to the Israelites, “Look, the Lord has chosen Bezalel son of Uri, from the tribe of Judah. (Uri was the son of Hur.)
31. And he has filled Bezalel with the Spirit of God—he gave Bezalel special skill and knowledge to do all kinds of things.
32. He can design and make things with gold, silver, and bronze.
33. He can cut and set stones and jewels. He can work with wood and make all kinds of things.
34. The Lord has given Bezalel and Oholiab special skills to teach other people. (Oholiab was the son of Ahisamach from the tribe of Dan.)
