and I filled him with a divine spirit of wisdom and understanding and knowledge in every work
καὶ ἀρχιτεκτονῆσαι ἐργάζεσθαι τὸ χρυσίον καὶ τὸ ἀργύριον καὶ τὸν χαλκὸν καὶ τὴν ὑάκινθον καὶ τὴν πορφύραν καὶ τὸ κόκκινον τὸ νηστὸν καὶ τὴν βύσσον τὴν κεκλωσμένην
to devise and to design, to work the gold and the silver and the bronze and the blue and the purple and the scarlet, the fine and the twisted linen
and the stone-cutting work and to work in the carpenter’s works of wood, according to all the works
ἐγὼ ἔδωκα αὐτὸν καὶ τὸν Ελιαβ τὸν τοῦ Αχισαμαχ ἐκ φυλῆς Δαν καὶ παντὶ συνετῷ καρδίᾳ δέδωκα σύνεσιν καὶ ποιήσουσιν πάντα ὅσα σοι συνέταξα
And I have given him and Eliab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, and to everyone wise in heart I have given understanding, and they shall make all that I have commanded you
σκηνὴν τοῦ μαρτυρίου καὶ τὴν κιβωτὸν τῆς διαθήκης καὶ τὸ ἱλαστήριον τὸ ἐπ᾿ αὐτῆς καὶ τὴν διασκευὴν τῆς σκηνῆς
the tent of the testimony and the ark of the covenant and the mercy seat that is upon it and the furnishings of the tent
τὰ θυσιαστήρια καὶ τὴν τράπεζαν καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη αὐτῆς καὶ τὴν λυχνίαν τὴν καθαρὰν καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη αὐτῆς
and the altars and the table and all its utensils and the pure lampstand and all its utensils
and the laver and its base
and the sacred garments of Aaron and the sacred garments of his sons, for them to minister as priests to me
τὸ ἔλαιον τῆς χρίσεως καὶ τὸ θυμίαμα τῆς συνθέσεως τοῦ ἁγίου κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἐγὼ ἐνετειλάμην σοι ποιήσουσιν
and the anointing oil and the incense of the composition of the holy place, according to all that I commanded you, they shall make
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying
σὺ σύνταξον τοῖς υἱοῖς Ισραηλ λέγων ὁρᾶτε καὶ τὰ σάββατά μου φυλάξεσθε σημεῖόν ἐστιν παρ᾿ ἐμοὶ καὶ ἐν ὑμῖν εἰς τὰς γενεὰς ὑμῶν ἵνα γνῶτε ὅτι ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ ἁγιάζων ὑμᾶς
And you, command the sons of Israel, saying, See, and you shall keep my Sabbaths, it is a sign between me and you for your generations, so that you may know that I am the Lord who sanctifies you.
φυλάξεσθε τὰ σάββατα ὅτι ἅγιον τοῦτό ἐστιν κυρίου ὑμῖν ὁ βεβηλῶν αὐτὸ θανάτῳ θανατωθήσεται πᾶς ὃς ποιήσει ἐν αὐτῷ ἔργον ἐξολεθρευθήσεται ἡ ψυχὴ ἐκείνη ἐκ μέσου τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ
And you shall keep the sabbaths, for this is holy to you, of the Lord; everyone who profanes it shall surely be put to death, whoever does work in it, that soul shall be cut off from the midst of his people.

Six days you shall do works, but on the seventh day there shall be a sabbath of holy rest to the Lord; everyone who does work on the seventh day shall be put to death.
And the sons of Israel shall keep the sabbaths, to do them throughout their generations, an everlasting covenant
ἐμοὶ καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς Ισραηλ σημεῖόν ἐστιν αἰώνιον ὅτι ἐν ἓξ ἡμέραις ἐποίησεν κύριος τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ τὴν γῆν καὶ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ἑβδόμῃ ἐπαύσατο καὶ κατέπαυσεν
between me and the sons of Israel it is an everlasting sign, because in six days the Lord made the heaven and the earth, and on the seventh day he ceased and rested
ἔδωκεν Μωυσεῖ ἡνίκα κατέπαυσεν λαλῶν αὐτῷ ἐν τῷ ὄρει τῷ Σινα τὰς δύο πλάκας τοῦ μαρτυρίου πλάκας λιθίνας γεγραμμένας τῷ δακτύλῳ τοῦ θεοῦ
And he gave to Moses, when he had ceased speaking with him on Mount Sinai, the two tablets of the testimony, stone tablets, written with the finger of God
