Exodus 35

1 मूसा ने इस्त्राएलियों की सारी मण्डली इकट्ठी करके उन से कहा, जिन कामों के करने की आज्ञा यहोवा ने दी है वे ये हैं।

2 छ: दिन तो काम काज किया जाए, परन्तु सातवां दिन तुम्हारे लिये पवित्र और यहोवा के लिये परमविश्राम का दिन ठहरे; उस में जो कोई काम काज करे वह मार डाला जाए;

3 वरन विश्राम के दिन तुम अपने अपने घरों में आग तक न जलाना॥

4 फिर मूसा ने इस्त्राएलियों की सारी मण्डली से कहा, जिस बात की आज्ञा यहोवा ने दी है वह यह है।

5 तुम्हारे पास से यहोवा के लिये भेंट ली जाए, अर्थात जितने अपनी इच्छा से देना चाहें वे यहोवा की भेंट करके ये वस्तुएं ले आएं; अर्थात सोना, रूपा, पीतल;

6 नीले, बैंजनी और लाल रंग का कपड़ा, सूक्ष्म सनी का कपड़ा; बकरी का बाल,

7 लाल रंग से रंगी हुई मेढ़ों की खालें, सुइसों की खालें; बबूल की लकड़ी,

8 उजियाला देने के लिये तेल, अभिषेक का तेल, और धूप के लिये सुगन्धद्रव्य,

9 फिर एपोद और चपरास के लिये सुलैमानी मणि और जड़ने के लिये मणि।

10 और तुम में से जितनों के हृदय में बुद्धि का प्रकाश है वे सब आकर जिस जिस वस्तु की आज्ञा यहोवा ने दी है वे सब बनाएं।

11 अर्थात तम्बू, और ओहार समेत निवास, और उसकी घुंडी, तख्ते, बेंड़े, खम्भे और कुसिर्यां;

12 फिर डण्डों समेत सन्दूक, और प्रायश्चित्त का ढकना, और बीचवाला पर्दा;

13 डण्डों और सब सामान समेत मेज़, और भेंट की रोटियां;

14 सामान और दीपकों समेत उजियाला देनेवाला दीवट, और उजियाला देने के लिये तेल;

15 डण्डों समेत धूपवेदी, अभिषेक का तेल, सुगन्धित धूप, और निवास के द्वार का पर्दा;

16 पीतल की झंझरी, डण्डों आदि सारे सामान समेत होमवेदी, पाए समेत हौदी;

17 खम्भों और उनकी कुसिर्यों समेत आंगन के पर्दे, और आंगन के द्वार के पर्दे;

18 निवास और आंगन दोनों के खूंटे, और डोरियां;

19 पवित्रस्थान में सेवा टहल करने के लिये काढ़े हुए वस्त्र, और याजक का काम करने के लिये हारून याजक के पवित्र वस्त्र, और उसके पुत्रों के वस्त्र भी॥

20 तब इस्त्राएलियों की सारी मण्डली मूसा के साम्हने से लौट गई।

21 और जितनों को उत्साह हुआ, और जितनों के मन में ऐसी इच्छा उत्पन्न हुई थी, वे मिलाप वाले तम्बू के काम करने और उसकी सारी सेवकाई और पवित्र वस्त्रों के बनाने के लिये यहोवा की भेंट ले आने लगे।

22 क्या स्त्री, क्या पुरूष, जितनों के मन में ऐसी इच्छा उत्पन्न हुई भी वे सब जुगनू, नथुनी, मुंदरी, और कंगन आदि सोने के गहने ले आने लगे, इस भांति जितने मनुष्य यहोवा के लिये सोने की भेंट के देने वाले थे वे सब उन को ले आए।

23 और जिस जिस पुरूष के पास नीले, बैंजनी वा लाल रंग का कपड़ा वा सूक्ष्म सनी का कपड़ा, वा बकरी का बाल, वा लाल रंग से रंगी हुई मेढ़ों की खालें, वा सूइसों की खालें थी वे उन्हें ले आए।

24 फिर जितने चांदी, वा पीतल की भेंट के देने वाले थे वे यहोवा के लिये वैसी भेंट ले आए; और जिस जिसके पास सेवकाई के किसी काम के लिये बबूल की लकड़ी थी वे उसे ले आए।

25 और जितनी स्त्रियों के हृदय में बुद्धि का प्रकाश था वे अपने हाथों से सूत कात कातकर नीले, बैंजनी और लाल रंग के, और सूक्ष्म सनी के काते हुए सूत को ले आईं।

26 और जितनी स्त्रियों के मन में ऐसी बुद्धि का प्रकाश था उन्हो ने बकरी के बाल भी काते।

27 और प्रधान लोग एपोद और चपरास के लिये सुलैमानी मणि, और जड़ने के लिये मणि,

28 और उजियाला देने और अभिषेक और धूप के सुगन्धद्रव्य और तेल ले आये।

29 जिस जिस वस्तु के बनाने की आज्ञा यहोवा ने मूसा के द्वारा दी थी उसके लिये जो कुछ आवश्यक था, उसे वे सब पुरूष और स्त्रियां ले आई, जिनके हृदय में ऐसी इच्छा उत्पन्न हुई थी। इस प्रकार इस्त्राएली यहोवा के लिये अपनी ही इच्छा से भेंट ले आए॥

30 तब मूसा ने इस्त्राएलियों से कहा सुनो, यहोवा ने यहूदा के गोत्र वाले बसलेल को, जो ऊरी का पुत्र और हूर का पोता है, नाम ले कर बुलाया है।

31 और उसने उसको परमेश्वर के आत्मा से ऐसा परिपूर्ण किया हे कि सब प्रकार की बनावट के लिये उसको ऐसी बुद्धि, समझ, और ज्ञान मिला है,

32 कि वह कारीगरी की युक्तियां निकाल कर सोने, चांदी, और पीतल में,

33 और जड़ने के लिये मणि काटने में और लकड़ी के खोदने में, वरन बुद्धि से सब भांति की निकाली हुई बनावट में काम कर सके।

34 फिर यहोवा ने उसके मन में और दान के गोत्र वाले अहीसामाक के पुत्र ओहोलीआब के मन में भी शिक्षा देने की शक्ति दी है।

35 इन दोनों के हृदय को यहोवा ने ऐसी बुद्धि से परिपूर्ण किया है, कि वे खोदने और गढ़ने और नीले, बैजनी और लाल रंग के कपड़े, और सूक्ष्म सनी के कपड़े में काढ़ने और बुनने, वरन सब प्रकार की बनावट में, और बुद्धि से काम निकालने में सब भांति के काम करें॥

1 And Moses gathered all the congregation of the children of Israel together, and said unto them, These are the words which the Lord hath commanded, that ye should do them.

2 Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you an holy day, a sabbath of rest to the Lord: whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to death.

3 Ye shall kindle no fire throughout your habitations upon the sabbath day.

4 And Moses spake unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying, This is the thing which the Lord commanded, saying,

5 Take ye from among you an offering unto the Lord: whosoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it, an offering of the Lord; gold, and silver, and brass,

6 And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats’ hair,

7 And rams’ skins dyed red, and badgers’ skins, and shittim wood,

8 And oil for the light, and spices for anointing oil, and for the sweet incense,

9 And onyx stones, and stones to be set for the ephod, and for the breastplate.

10 And every wise hearted among you shall come, and make all that the Lord hath commanded;

11 The tabernacle, his tent, and his covering, his taches, and his boards, his bars, his pillars, and his sockets,

12 The ark, and the staves thereof, with the mercy seat, and the vail of the covering,

13 The table, and his staves, and all his vessels, and the shewbread,

14 The candlestick also for the light, and his furniture, and his lamps, with the oil for the light,

15 And the incense altar, and his staves, and the anointing oil, and the sweet incense, and the hanging for the door at the entering in of the tabernacle,

16 The altar of burnt offering, with his brasen grate, his staves, and all his vessels, the laver and his foot,

17 The hangings of the court, his pillars, and their sockets, and the hanging for the door of the court,

18 The pins of the tabernacle, and the pins of the court, and their cords,

19 The cloths of service, to do service in the holy place, the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister in the priest’s office.

20 And all the congregation of the children of Israel departed from the presence of Moses.

21 And they came, every one whose heart stirred him up, and every one whom his spirit made willing, and they brought the Lord’s offering to the work of the tabernacle of the congregation, and for all his service, and for the holy garments.

22 And they came, both men and women, as many as were willing hearted, and brought bracelets, and earrings, and rings, and tablets, all jewels of gold: and every man that offered offered an offering of gold unto the Lord.

23 And every man, with whom was found blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats’ hair, and red skins of rams, and badgers’ skins, brought them.

24 Every one that did offer an offering of silver and brass brought the Lord’s offering: and every man, with whom was found shittim wood for any work of the service, brought it.

25 And all the women that were wise hearted did spin with their hands, and brought that which they had spun, both of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, and of fine linen.

26 And all the women whose heart stirred them up in wisdom spun goats’ hair.

27 And the rulers brought onyx stones, and stones to be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate;

28 And spice, and oil for the light, and for the anointing oil, and for the sweet incense.

29 The children of Israel brought a willing offering unto the Lord, every man and woman, whose heart made them willing to bring for all manner of work, which the Lord had commanded to be made by the hand of Moses.

30 And Moses said unto the children of Israel, See, the Lord hath called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah;

31 And he hath filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship;

32 And to devise curious works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,

33 And in the cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of wood, to make any manner of cunning work.

34 And he hath put in his heart that he may teach, both he, and Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan.

35 Them hath he filled with wisdom of heart, to work all manner of work, of the engraver, and of the cunning workman, and of the embroiderer, in blue, and in purple, in scarlet, and in fine linen, and of the weaver, even of them that do any work, and of those that devise cunning work.

1 And, behold, there came a man of God out of Judah by the word of the Lord unto Beth-el: and Jeroboam stood by the altar to burn incense.

2 And he cried against the altar in the word of the Lord, and said, O altar, altar, thus saith the Lord; Behold, a child shall be born unto the house of David, Josiah by name; and upon thee shall he offer the priests of the high places that burn incense upon thee, and men’s bones shall be burnt upon thee.

3 And he gave a sign the same day, saying, This is the sign which the Lord hath spoken; Behold, the altar shall be rent, and the ashes that are upon it shall be poured out.

4 And it came to pass, when king Jeroboam heard the saying of the man of God, which had cried against the altar in Beth-el, that he put forth his hand from the altar, saying, Lay hold on him. And his hand, which he put forth against him, dried up, so that he could not pull it in again to him.

5 The altar also was rent, and the ashes poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God had given by the word of the Lord.

6 And the king answered and said unto the man of God, Intreat now the face of the Lord thy God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored me again. And the man of God besought the Lord, and the king’s hand was restored him again, and became as it was before.

7 And the king said unto the man of God, Come home with me, and refresh thyself, and I will give thee a reward.

8 And the man of God said unto the king, If thou wilt give me half thine house, I will not go in with thee, neither will I eat bread nor drink water in this place:

9 For so was it charged me by the word of the Lord, saying, Eat no bread, nor drink water, nor turn again by the same way that thou camest.

10 So he went another way, and returned not by the way that he came to Beth-el.

11 Now there dwelt an old prophet in Beth-el; and his sons came and told him all the works that the man of God had done that day in Beth-el: the words which he had spoken unto the king, them they told also to their father.

12 And their father said unto them, What way went he? For his sons had seen what way the man of God went, which came from Judah.

13 And he said unto his sons, Saddle me the ass. So they saddled him the ass: and he rode thereon,

14 And went after the man of God, and found him sitting under an oak: and he said unto him, Art thou the man of God that camest from Judah? And he said, I am.

15 Then he said unto him, Come home with me, and eat bread.

16 And he said, I may not return with thee, nor go in with thee: neither will I eat bread nor drink water with thee in this place:

17 For it was said to me by the word of the Lord, Thou shalt eat no bread nor drink water there, nor turn again to go by the way that thou camest.

18 He said unto him, I am a prophet also as thou art; and an angel spake unto me by the word of the Lord, saying, Bring him back with thee into thine house, that he may eat bread and drink water. But he lied unto him.

19 So he went back with him, and did eat bread in his house, and drank water.

20 And it came to pass, as they sat at the table, that the word of the Lord came unto the prophet that brought him back:

21 And he cried unto the man of God that came from Judah, saying, Thus saith the Lord, Forasmuch as thou hast disobeyed the mouth of the Lord, and hast not kept the commandment which the Lord thy God commanded thee,

22 But camest back, and hast eaten bread and drunk water in the place, of the which the Lord did say to thee, Eat no bread, and drink no water; thy carcase shall not come unto the sepulchre of thy fathers.

23 And it came to pass, after he had eaten bread, and after he had drunk, that he saddled for him the ass, to wit, for the prophet whom he had brought back.

24 And when he was gone, a lion met him by the way, and slew him: and his carcase was cast in the way, and the ass stood by it, the lion also stood by the carcase.

25 And, behold, men passed by, and saw the carcase cast in the way, and the lion standing by the carcase: and they came and told it in the city where the old prophet dwelt.

26 And when the prophet that brought him back from the way heard thereof, he said, It is the man of God, who was disobedient unto the word of the Lord: therefore the Lord hath delivered him unto the lion, which hath torn him, and slain him, according to the word of the Lord, which he spake unto him.

27 And he spake to his sons, saying, Saddle me the ass. And they saddled him.

28 And he went and found his carcase cast in the way, and the ass and the lion standing by the carcase: the lion had not eaten the carcase, nor torn the ass.

29 And the prophet took up the carcase of the man of God, and laid it upon the ass, and brought it back: and the old prophet came to the city, to mourn and to bury him.

30 And he laid his carcase in his own grave; and they mourned over him, saying, Alas, my brother!

31 And it came to pass, after he had buried him, that he spake to his sons, saying, When I am dead, then bury me in the sepulchre wherein the man of God is buried; lay my bones beside his bones:

32 For the saying which he cried by the word of the Lord against the altar in Beth-el, and against all the houses of the high places which are in the cities of Samaria, shall surely come to pass.

33 After this thing Jeroboam returned not from his evil way, but made again of the lowest of the people priests of the high places: whosoever would, he consecrated him, and he became one of the priests of the high places.

34 And this thing became sin unto the house of Jeroboam, even to cut it off, and to destroy it from off the face of the earth.
