[1] Moses assembled the whole Israelite community and said to them, “These are the things the LORD has commanded you to do: [2] For six days, work is to be done, but the seventh day shall be your holy day, a day of sabbath rest to the LORD. Whoever does any work on it is to be put to death. [3] Do not light a fire in any of your dwellings on the Sabbath day.” [4] Moses said to the whole Israelite community, “This is what the LORD has commanded: [5] From what you have, take an offering for the LORD. Everyone who is willing is to bring to the LORD an offering of gold, silver and bronze; [6] blue, purple and scarlet yarn and fine linen; goat hair; [7] ram skins dyed red and another type of durable leather; acacia wood; [8] olive oil for the light; spices for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense; [9] and onyx stones and other gems to be mounted on the ephod and breastpiece.
