1Fecit ergo Beseleel,Therefore,et Ooliab,Bezalel,et omnis vir sapiens,and Oholiab,quibus dedit Dominus sapientiamand every wise man,et intellectum,to whom the Lord gave wisdom and intelligence,ut scirent fabre operari quæ in usus sanctuarii necessaria sunt,so as to know how to work skillfully,et quæ præcepit Dominus.made that which was necessary for the uses of the Sanctuary and which the Lord had instructed.

2Cumque vocasset eos Moyses et omnem eruditum virum,And when Moses had called them and every man of learning,cui dederat Dominus sapientiam,to whom the Lord had given wisdom, and who,et qui sponte sua obtulerant se ad faciendum opus,of their own accord, had offered themselves in order to accomplish this work,

3tradidit eis universa donaria filiorum Israël.he handed over to them all the donations of the sons of Israel.Qui cum instarent operi,And while they were pursuing this work,quotidie mane vota populus offerebat.the people offered what they had vowed each day, in the morning.

4Unde artifices venire compulsi,The artisans were compelled by this to go

5dixerunt Moysi:to Moses and to say,Plus offert populus quam necessarium est.“The people offer more than is needed.”

6Jussit ergo Moyses præconis voce cantari:Therefore, Moses ordered this to be recited, with a voice of proclamation:Nec vir, nec mulier quidquam offerat ultra in opere sanctuarii.“Let neither man nor woman offer anything further for the work of the Sanctuary.”Sicque cessatum est a muneribus offerendis,And so they ceased from offering gifts,

7eo quod oblata sufficerent et superabundarent.because what was offered was sufficient and was more than an abundance.

8Feceruntque omnes corde sapientes ad explendum opus tabernaculi,And all those who were wise of heart,cortinas decem de bysso retorta,in order to accomplish the work of the tabernacle,et hyacintho,made ten curtains of fine twisted linen,et purpura,and hyacinth,coccoque bis tincto,and purple,opere vario,and twice-dyed scarlet,et arte polymita:with diverse workmanship by the art of embroidery.

9quarum una habebat in longitudine viginti octo cubitos,Each of these was twenty-eight cubits in length,et in latitudine quatuor;and in width, four.una mensura erat omnium cortinarum.All the curtains were of one measure.

10Conjunxitque cortinas quinque, alteram alteri,And he joined five curtains to one another,et alias quinque sibi invicem copulavit.and the other five he coupled to one another.

11Fecit et ansas hyacinthinas in ora cortinæ unius ex utroque latere,He also made loops of hyacinth along the edge of one curtain on both sides,et in ora cortinæ alterius similiter,and similarly along the edge of the other curtain,

12ut contra se invicem venirent ansæ,so that the loops might meet against one anotheret mutuo jungerentur.and might be joined together.

13Unde et quinquaginta fudit circulos aureos,For these,qui morderent cortinarum ansas,he also cast fifty gold rings,et fieret unum tabernaculum.which would retain the loops of the curtains and so make the tabernacle one.

14FecitHe also made eleven canopies from the hair of goats,et saga undecim de pilis caprarum ad operiendum tectum tabernaculi:in order to cover the roof of the tabernacle:

15unum sagum in longitudine habebat cubitos triginta,one canopy held in length thirty cubits,et in latitudine cubitos quatuor:and in width four cubits.unius mensuræ erant omnia saga:All the canopies were of one measure.

16quorum quinque junxit seorsum,Five of these he joined by themselves,et sex alia separatim.and the other six separately.

17Fecitque ansas quinquaginta in ora sagi unius,And he made fifty loops along the edge of one canopy,et quinquaginta in ora sagi alterius,and fifty along the edge of the other canopy,ut sibi invicem jungerentur.so that they might be joined to one another,

18Et fibulas æneas quinquaginta,and fifty buckles of brass,quibus necteretur tectum,with which the roof might be woven together,ut unum pallium ex omnibus sagis fieret.so that from all the canopies there would be made one covering.

19Fecit et opertorium tabernaculi de pellibus arietum rubricatis:He also made a covering for the tabernacle from the skins of rams,aliudque desuper velamentum de pellibus janthinis.dyed-red; and another cover above it, from violet skins.

20FecitHe also made the standing panels of the tabernacle,et tabulas tabernaculi de lignis setim stantes.from setim wood.

21Decem cubitorum erat longitudo tabulæ unius:Ten cubits was the length of one panel,et unum ac semis cubitum latitudo retinebat.and one and one half cubits comprised the width.

22Binæ incastraturæ erant per singulas tabulas,There were two dovetails along every panel,ut altera alteri jungeretur.so that one might be joined to the other.Sic fecit in omnibus tabernaculi tabulis.Thus did he make all the panels of the tabernacle.

23E quibus viginti ad plagam meridianam erant contra austrum,Of these, twenty were toward the meridian area, opposite the south,

24cum quadraginta basibus argenteis.with forty bases of silver.Duæ bases sub una tabula ponebantur ex utraque parte angulorum,Two bases were set under one panel at each of two sides at the corners,ubi incastraturæ laterum in angulis terminantur.where the joints of the sides terminate in corners.

25Ad plagam quoque tabernaculi,Likewise,quæ respicit ad aquilonem,at that side of the tabernacle which looks toward the north,fecit viginti tabulas,he made twenty panels,

26cum quadraginta basibus argenteis,with forty bases of silver,duas bases per singulas tabulas.two bases for each board.

27Contra occidentem vero,Yet truly, opposite the west,id est,that is,ad eam partem tabernaculi quæ mare respicit,toward that part of the tabernacle which looks out toward the sea,fecit sex tabulas,he made six panels,

28et duas alias per singulos angulos tabernaculi retro:and two others at each corner of the tabernacle at the back,

29quæ junctæ erant a deorsum usque sursum,which were joined from bottom to topet in unam compaginem pariter ferebantur.and held together by one joint.Ita fecit ex utraque parte per angulos:So did he make both corners on that side.

30ut octo essent simul tabulæ,So then, there were altogether eight panels,et haberent bases argenteas sedecim,and they had sixteen bases of silver, with,binas scilicet bases sub singulis tabulis.of course, two bases under each panel.

31Fecit et vectes de lignis setim,He also made bars from setim wood:quinque ad continendas tabulas unius lateris tabernaculi,five to hold together the panels at one side of the tabernacle,

32et quinque alios ad alterius lateris coaptandas tabulas:and five others to fit together the panels of the other side, and,et extra hos,in addition to these,quinque alios vectes ad occidentalem plagam tabernaculi contra mare.five other bars toward the western area of the tabernacle, opposite the sea.

33Fecit quoque vectem alium,He also made another bar,qui per medias tabulas ab angulo usque ad angulum perveniret.which came through the middle of the panels from corner to corner.

34Ipsa autem tabulata deauravit,But the panels themselves he overlaid with gold,fusis basibus earum argenteis.casting silver bases for them.Et circulos eorum fecit aureos,And he made their rings from gold,per quos vectes induci possent:through which the bars might be able to be drawn.quos et ipsos laminis aureis operuit.And he covered the bars themselves with layers of gold.

35Fecit et velum de hyacintho,He also made a veil from hyacinth,et purpura,and purple,vermiculo, ac bysso retorta, opere polymitario,from vermillion as well as fine twisted linen,varium atque distinctum:with varied and distinctive embroidery,

36et quatuor columnas de lignis setim,and four columns of setim wood, which,quas cum capitibus deauravit,along with their heads, he overlaid with gold,fusis basibus earum argenteis.casting silver bases for them.

37Fecit et tentorium in introitu tabernaculi ex hyacintho,He also made a tent at the entrance of the tabernacle from hyacinth,purpura,purple,vermiculo,vermillion,byssoque retorta,and fine twisted linen,opere plumarii:wrought with embroidery,

38et columnas quinque cum capitibus suis,and five columns with their heads,quas operuit auro,which he covered with gold,basesque earum fudit æneas.and he cast their bases from brass.
