27 The leaders brought onyx stones and other precious stones to be set in the ⌊chief priest’s⌋ ephod and breastplate.
28 They also brought the spices and the olive oil for the lamps, the anointing oil, and the sweet-smelling incense.
29 Every Israelite man and woman who was willing brought all these items to the Lord as a freewill offering. They brought these items to be used to make everything the Lord had commanded through Moses.
30 Then Moses said to the Israelites, “The Lord has chosen Bezalel, son of Uri and grandson of Hur, from the tribe of Judah.
31 The Lord has filled Bezalel with the Spirit of God, making him highly skilled, resourceful, and knowledgeable in all trades.
32 He’s a master artist familiar with gold, silver, and bronze.
33 He knows how to cut and set stones and how to work with wood. He’s an expert in all trades.
