The Book of Exodus, Chapter 38ΕΞΟΔΟΣ ΛΗ′

καὶ ἐποίησεν Βεσελεηλ τὴν κιβωτὸν

And Bezalel made the ark.

καὶ κατεχρύσωσεν αὐτὴν χρυσίῳ καθαρῷ ἔσωθεν καὶ ἔξωθεν

And he overlaid it with pure gold within and without.

καὶ ἐχώνευσεν αὐτῇ τέσσαρας δακτυλίους χρυσοῦς δύο ἐπὶ τὸ κλίτος τὸ ἓν καὶ δύο ἐπὶ τὸ κλίτος τὸ δεύτερον

And he cast for it four gold rings, two on the one side and two on the second side.

εὐρεῖς τοῖς διωστῆρσιν ὥστε αἴρειν αὐτὴν ἐν αὐτοῖς

broad enough for the carrying-poles, so as to lift it by them.

καὶ ἐποίησεν τὸ ἱλαστήριον ἐπάνωθεν τῆς κιβωτοῦ ἐκ χρυσίου

And he made the mercy-seat above the ark, out of gold.

καὶ τοὺς δύο χερουβιμ χρυσοῦς

and the two cherubim of gold;

χερουβ ἕνα ἐπὶ τὸ ἄκρον τοῦ ἱλαστηρίου τὸ ἓν καὶ χερουβ ἕνα ἐπὶ τὸ ἄκρον τὸ δεύτερον τοῦ ἱλαστηρίου

one cherub on the one end of the mercy-seat and one cherub on the second end of the mercy-seat,

σκιάζοντα ταῖς πτέρυξιν αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τὸ ἱλαστήριον

overshadowing the mercy-seat with their wings.

καὶ ἐποίησεν τὴν τράπεζαν τὴν προκειμένην ἐκ χρυσίου καθαροῦ

And he made the table that is set out, of pure gold.

καὶ ἐχώνευσεν αὐτῇ τέσσαρας δακτυλίους δύο ἐπὶ τοῦ κλίτους τοῦ ἑνὸς καὶ δύο ἐπὶ τοῦ κλίτους τοῦ δευτέρου εὐρεῖς ὥστε αἴρειν τοῖς διωστῆρσιν ἐν αὐτοῖς

And he cast for it four rings, two on the one side and two on the second side, broad enough so as to lift it with the carrying-poles by them.

καὶ τοὺς διωστῆρας τῆς κιβωτοῦ καὶ τῆς τραπέζης ἐποίησεν καὶ κατεχρύσωσεν αὐτοὺς χρυσίῳ

And the carrying-poles of the ark and of the table he made, and overlaid them with gold.

καὶ ἐποίησεν τὰ σκεύη τῆς τραπέζης τά τε τρυβλία καὶ τὰς θυίσκας καὶ τοὺς κυάθους καὶ τὰ σπονδεῖα ἐν οἷς σπείσει ἐν αὐτοῖς χρυσᾶ

And he made the vessels of the table — the dishes, the incense-cups, the ladles, and the libation-bowls in which the drink-offering will be poured — of gold.

καὶ ἐποίησεν τὴν λυχνίαν ἣ φωτίζει χρυσῆν στερεὰν τὸν καυλόν

And he made the lampstand that gives light, of gold, solid in its shaft.

καὶ τοὺς καλαμίσκους ἐξ ἀμφοτέρων τῶν μερῶν αὐτῆς

and the branches from both its sides;

ἐκ τῶν καλαμίσκων αὐτῆς οἱ βλαστοὶ ἐξέχοντες τρεῖς ἐκ τούτου καὶ τρεῖς ἐκ τούτου ἐξισούμενοι ἀλλήλοις

from its branches the buds projecting, three from this side and three from that side, made equal to one another;

καὶ τὰ λαμπάδια αὐτῶν ἅ ἐστιν ἐπὶ τῶν ἄκρων καρυωτὰ ἐξ αὐτῶν καὶ τὰ ἐνθέμια ἐξ αὐτῶν ἵνα ὦσιν ἐπ᾿ αὐτῶν οἱ λύχνοι καὶ τὸ ἐνθέμιον τὸ ἕβδομον ἀπ᾿ ἄκρου τοῦ λαμπαδίου ἐπὶ τῆς κορυφῆς ἄνωθεν στερεὸν ὅλον χρυσοῦν

and their lamp-holders, which are on the tips, nut-shaped, out of them, and the calyxes out of them, that the lamps might be upon them, and the seventh calyx at the tip of the lamp-holder on the very top above, the whole one solid piece of gold.

καὶ ἑπτὰ λύχνους ἐπ᾿ αὐτῆς χρυσοῦς καὶ τὰς λαβίδας αὐτῆς χρυσᾶς καὶ τὰς ἐπαρυστρίδας αὐτῶν χρυσᾶς

and seven golden lamps upon it, and its golden snuffers, and their golden oil-vessels.

οὗτος περιηργύρωσεν τοὺς στύλους καὶ ἐχώνευσεν τῷ στύλῳ δακτυλίους χρυσοῦς καὶ ἐχρύσωσεν τοὺς μοχλοὺς χρυσίῳ καὶ κατεχρύσωσεν τοὺς στύλους τοῦ καταπετάσματος χρυσίῳ καὶ ἐποίησεν τὰς ἀγκύλας χρυσᾶς

This man overlaid the pillars with silver, and cast for the pillar gold rings, and gilded the bars with gold, and overlaid the pillars of the veil with gold, and made the clasps of gold.

οὗτος ἐποίησεν καὶ τοὺς κρίκους τῆς σκηνῆς χρυσοῦς καὶ τοὺς κρίκους τῆς αὐλῆς καὶ κρίκους εἰς τὸ ἐκτείνειν τὸ κατακάλυμμα ἄνωθεν χαλκοῦς

This man made also the rings of the tabernacle of gold, and the rings of the court, and bronze rings for stretching out the covering above.

οὗτος ἐχώνευσεν τὰς κεφαλίδας τὰς ἀργυρᾶς τῆς σκηνῆς καὶ τὰς κεφαλίδας τὰς χαλκᾶς τῆς θύρας τῆς σκηνῆς καὶ τὴν πύλην τῆς αὐλῆς καὶ ἀγκύλας ἐποίησεν τοῖς στύλοις ἀργυρᾶς ἐπὶ τῶν στύλων οὗτος περιηργύρωσεν αὐτάς

This man cast the silver capitals of the tabernacle and the bronze capitals of the door of the tabernacle and the gate of the court, and he made silver clasps for the pillars on the pillars; this man overlaid them with silver.

οὗτος ἐποίησεν καὶ τοὺς πασσάλους τῆς σκηνῆς καὶ τοὺς πασσάλους τῆς αὐλῆς χαλκοῦς

This man made also the pegs of the tabernacle and the pegs of the court, of bronze.

οὗτος ἐποίησεν τὸ θυσιαστήριον τὸ χαλκοῦν ἐκ τῶν πυρείων τῶν χαλκῶν ἃ ἦσαν τοῖς ἀνδράσιν τοῖς καταστασιάσασι μετὰ τῆς Κορε συναγωγῆς

This man made the bronze altar out of the bronze censers that belonged to the men who had rebelled with the congregation of Korah.

οὗτος ἐποίησεν πάντα τὰ σκεύη τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου καὶ τὸ πυρεῖον αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν βάσιν καὶ τὰς φιάλας καὶ τὰς κρεάγρας χαλκᾶς

This man made all the vessels of the altar — its firepan and the base and the bowls and the flesh-hooks — of bronze.

οὗτος ἐποίησεν τῷ θυσιαστηρίῳ παράθεμα ἔργον δικτυωτόν κάτωθεν τοῦ πυρείου ὑπὸ αὐτὸ ἕως τοῦ ἡμίσους αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπέθηκεν αὐτῷ τέσσαρας δακτυλίους ἐκ τῶν τεσσάρων μερῶν τοῦ παραθέματος τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου χαλκοῦς τοῖς μοχλοῖς εὐρεῖς ὥστε αἴρειν τὸ θυσιαστήριον ἐν αὐτοῖς

This man made for the altar a grating, a work of network, beneath the hearth, under it, reaching to its middle; and he set on it four rings at the four corners of the altar's grating, of bronze, broad for the poles, so as to lift the altar by them.

οὗτος ἐποίησεν τὸ ἔλαιον τῆς χρίσεως τὸ ἅγιον καὶ τὴν σύνθεσιν τοῦ θυμιάματος καθαρὸν ἔργον μυρεψοῦ

This man made the holy anointing oil and the compound of the incense, a pure work of a perfumer.

οὗτος ἐποίησεν τὸν λουτῆρα χαλκοῦν καὶ τὴν βάσιν αὐτοῦ χαλκῆν ἐκ τῶν κατόπτρων τῶν νηστευσασῶν αἳ ἐνήστευσαν παρὰ τὰς θύρας τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου ἐν ᾗ ἡμέρᾳ ἔπηξεν αὐτήν

This man made the bronze laver and its bronze base, out of the mirrors of the women who fasted, who fasted at the doors of the tent of witness on the day he set it up.

καὶ ἐποίησεν τὸν λουτῆρα ἵνα νίπτωνται ἐξ αὐτοῦ Μωυσῆς καὶ Ααρων καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ τὰς χεῖρας αὐτῶν καὶ τοὺς πόδας εἰσπορευομένων αὐτῶν εἰς τὴν σκηνὴν τοῦ μαρτυρίου ἢ ὅταν προσπορεύωνται πρὸς τὸ θυσιαστήριον λειτουργεῖν ἐνίπτοντο ἐξ αὐτοῦ καθάπερ συνέταξεν κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ

And he made the laver, that Moses and Aaron and his sons might wash their hands and feet from it when they entered the tent of witness, or whenever they drew near to the altar to minister, they washed from it, just as the LORD had instructed Moses.
