Exodus 36:1-6 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

1. “So Bezalel, Oholiab, and all the other skilled men must do the work the Lord has commanded. The Lord has given these men the wisdom and understanding to do all the skilled work needed to build this holy place.”

2. Then Moses called Bezalel, Oholiab, and all the other skilled men who the Lord had given special skills to. And they came because they wanted to help with the work.

3. Moses gave them everything the Israelites had brought as gifts, and they used these things to build the holy place. The people continued to bring gifts each morning.

4. Finally, all the skilled workers left the work they were doing on the holy place, and they went to speak to Moses. They said,

5. “The people have brought too much. We have more than we need to finish the work the Lord told us to do.”

6. Then Moses sent this message throughout the camp: “No man or woman should make anything else as a gift for the holy place.” So the people were forced to stop giving more.
