And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of them, even all wrought jewels.
כִּי יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ בֵּֽרַכְךָ בְּכֹל מַֽעֲשֵׂה יָדֶךָ יָדַע לֶכְתְּךָ אֶת-הַמִּדְבָּר הַגָּדֹל הַזֶּה זֶה׀ אַרְבָּעִים שָׁנָה יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ עִמָּךְ לֹא חָסַרְתָּ דָּבָֽר׃
For the LORD thy God hath blessed thee in all the works of thy hand: he knoweth thy walking through this great wilderness: these forty years the LORD thy God hath been with thee; thou hast lacked nothing.
אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה אַתָּה הַֽחִלּוֹתָ לְהַרְאוֹת אֶֽת-עַבְדְּךָ אֶת-גָּדְלְךָ וְאֶת-יָֽדְךָ הַֽחֲזָקָה אֲשֶׁר מִי-אֵל בַּשָּׁמַיִם וּבָאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר-יַֽעֲשֶׂה כְמַֽעֲשֶׂיךָ וְכִגְבֽוּרֹתֶֽךָ׃
O Lord GOD, thou hast begun to shew thy servant thy greatness, and thy mighty hand: for what God is there in heaven or in earth, that can do according to thy works, and according to thy might?
וַֽעֲבַדְתֶּם-שָׁם אֱלֹהִים מַֽעֲשֵׂה יְדֵי אָדָם עֵץ וָאֶבֶן אֲשֶׁר לֹֽא-יִרְאוּן וְלֹא יִשְׁמְעוּן וְלֹא יֹֽאכְלוּן וְלֹא יְרִיחֻֽן׃

Six days thou shalt labour, and do all thy work:
וְיוֹם הַשְּׁבִיעִי שַׁבָּת׀ לַֽיהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ לֹא תַֽעֲשֶׂה כָל-מְלָאכָה אַתָּה וּבִנְךָֽ-וּבִתֶּךָ וְעַבְדְּךָֽ-וַאֲמָתֶךָ וְשֽׁוֹרְךָ וַחֲמֹֽרְךָ וְכָל-בְּהֶמְתֶּךָ וְגֵֽרְךָ אֲשֶׁר בִּשְׁעָרֶיךָ לְמַעַן יָנוּחַ עַבְדְּךָ וַאֲמָֽתְךָ כָּמֽוֹךָ׃
But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; that thy manservant and thy maidservant may rest as well as thou.
וְאֶת-אֹֽתֹתָיו וְאֶֽת-מַעֲשָׂיו אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה בְּתוֹךְ מִצְרָיִם לְפַרְעֹה מֶֽלֶךְ-מִצְרַיִם וּלְכָל-אַרְצֽוֹ׃
And his miracles, and his acts, which he did in the midst of Egypt unto Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and unto all his land;

But your eyes have seen all the great acts of the LORD which he did.
וּבָא הַלֵּוִי כִּי אֵֽין-לוֹ חֵלֶק וְנַֽחֲלָה עִמָּךְ וְהַגֵּר וְהַיָּתוֹם וְהָֽאַלְמָנָה אֲשֶׁר בִּשְׁעָרֶיךָ וְאָֽכְלוּ וְשָׂבֵעוּ לְמַעַן יְבָֽרֶכְךָ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ בְּכָל-מַֽעֲשֵׂה יָֽדְךָ אֲשֶׁר תַּֽעֲשֶֽׂה׃
And the Levite, (because he hath no part nor inheritance with thee,) and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, which are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hand which thou doest.
נָתוֹן תִּתֵּן לוֹ וְלֹֽא-יֵרַע לְבָֽבְךָ בְּתִתְּךָ לוֹ כִּי בִּגְלַל׀ הַדָּבָר הַזֶּה יְבָֽרֶכְךָ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ בְּכָֽל-מַעֲשֶׂךָ וּבְכֹל מִשְׁלַח יָדֶֽךָ׃

Seven days shalt thou keep a solemn feast unto the LORD thy God in the place which the LORD shall choose: because the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all thine increase, and in all the works of thine hands, therefore thou shalt surely rejoice.
כִּי תִקְצֹר קְצִֽירְךָ בְשָׂדֶךָ וְשָֽׁכַחְתָּ עֹמֶר בַּשָּׂדֶה לֹא תָשׁוּב לְקַחְתּוֹ לַגֵּר לַיָּתוֹם וְלָֽאַלְמָנָה יִֽהְיֶה לְמַעַן יְבָֽרֶכְךָ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ בְּכֹל מַֽעֲשֵׂה יָדֶֽיךָ׃

אָרוּר הָאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר יַֽעֲשֶׂה פֶסֶל וּמַסֵּכָה תּֽוֹעֲבַת יְהוָה מַֽעֲשֵׂה יְדֵי חָרָשׁ וְשָׂם בַּסָּתֶר וְעָנוּ כָל-הָעָם וְאָֽמְרוּ אָמֵֽן׃
Cursed be the man that maketh any graven or molten image, an abomination unto the LORD, the work of the hands of the craftsman, and putteth it in a secret place. And all the people shall answer and say, Amen.
יִפְתַּח יְהוָה׀ לְךָ אֶת-אֽוֹצָרוֹ הַטּוֹב אֶת-הַשָּׁמַיִם לָתֵת מְטַֽר-אַרְצְךָ בְּעִתּוֹ וּלְבָרֵךְ אֵת כָּל-מַֽעֲשֵׂה יָדֶךָ וְהִלְוִיתָ גּוֹיִם רַבִּים וְאַתָּה לֹא תִלְוֶֽה׃
The LORD shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow.
וְהוֹתִֽירְךָ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ בְּכֹל׀ מַֽעֲשֵׂה יָדֶךָ בִּפְרִי בִטְנְךָ וּבִפְרִי בְהֶמְתְּךָ וּבִפְרִי אַדְמָֽתְךָ לְטֹבָה כִּי׀ יָשׁוּב יְהוָה לָשׂוּשׂ עָלֶיךָ לְטוֹב כַּֽאֲשֶׁר-שָׂשׂ עַל-אֲבֹתֶֽיךָ׃
And the LORD thy God will make thee plenteous in every work of thine hand, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy land, for good: for the LORD will again rejoice over thee for good, as he rejoiced over thy fathers:
כִּי יָדַעְתִּי אַֽחֲרֵי מוֹתִי כִּֽי-הַשְׁחֵת תַּשְׁחִתוּן וְסַרְתֶּם מִן-הַדֶּרֶךְ אֲשֶׁר צִוִּיתִי אֶתְכֶם וְקָרָאת אֶתְכֶם הָֽרָעָה בְּאַֽחֲרִית הַיָּמִים כִּֽי-תַעֲשׂוּ אֶת-הָרַע בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה לְהַכְעִיסוֹ בְּמַֽעֲשֵׂה יְדֵיכֶֽם׃
For I know that after my death ye will utterly corrupt yourselves, and turn aside from the way which I have commanded you; and evil will befall you in the latter days; because ye will do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger through the work of your hands.
וַיַּֽעֲבֹד יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶת-יְהוָה כֹּל יְמֵי יְהוֹשֻׁעַ וְכֹל׀ יְמֵי הַזְּקֵנִים אֲשֶׁר הֶֽאֱרִיכוּ יָמִים אַֽחֲרֵי יְהוֹשֻׁעַ וַֽאֲשֶׁר יָֽדְעוּ אֵת כָּל-מַֽעֲשֵׂה יְהוָה אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה לְיִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
And Israel served the LORD all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders that overlived Joshua, and which had known all the works of the LORD, that he had done for Israel.

And the people served the LORD all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders that outlived Joshua, who had seen all the great works of the LORD, that he did for Israel.
וְגַם כָּל-הַדּוֹר הַהוּא נֶֽאֶסְפוּ אֶל-אֲבוֹתָיו וַיָּקָם דּוֹר אַחֵר אַֽחֲרֵיהֶם אֲשֶׁר לֹא-יָֽדְעוּ אֶת-יְהוָה וְגַם אֶת-הַֽמַּעֲשֶׂה אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה לְיִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
And also all that generation were gathered unto their fathers: and there arose another generation after them, which knew not the LORD, nor yet the works which he had done for Israel.

And Manoah said, Now let thy words come to pass. How shall we order the child, and how shall we do unto him?
וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלֶיהָ אִם-אָסוֹר יַֽאַסְרוּנִי בַּֽעֲבֹתִים חֲדָשִׁים אֲשֶׁר לֹֽא-נַעֲשָׂה בָהֶם מְלָאכָה וְחָלִיתִי וְהָיִיתִי כְּאַחַד הָֽאָדָֽם׃

And, behold, there came an old man from his work out of the field at even, which was also of mount Ephraim; and he sojourned in Gibeah: but the men of the place were Benjamites.
כְּכָֽל-הַמַּעֲשִׂים אֲשֶׁר-עָשׂוּ מִיּוֹם הַֽעֲלֹתִי אוֹתָם מִמִּצְרַיִם וְעַד-הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה וַיַּעַזְבֻנִי וַיַּֽעַבְדוּ אֱלֹהִים אֲחֵרִים כֵּן הֵמָּה עֹשִׂים גַּם-לָֽךְ׃
According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even unto this day, wherewith they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do they also unto thee.
וְאֶת-עַבְדֵיכֶם וְֽאֶת-שִׁפְחוֹתֵיכֶם וְאֶת-בַּחֽוּרֵיכֶם הַטּוֹבִים וְאֶת-חֲמֽוֹרֵיכֶם יִקָּח וְעָשָׂה לִמְלַאכְתּֽוֹ׃

But Saul and the people spared Agag, and the best of the sheep, and of the oxen, and of the fatlings, and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not utterly destroy them: but every thing that was vile and refuse, that they destroyed utterly.
וַיְדַבֵּר יְהֽוֹנָתָן בְּדָוִד טוֹב אֶל-שָׁאוּל אָבִיו וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו אַל-יֶֽחֱטָא הַמֶּלֶךְ בְּעַבְדּוֹ בְדָוִד כִּי לוֹא חָטָא לָךְ וְכִי מַֽעֲשָׂיו טוֹב-לְךָ מְאֹֽד׃
And Jonathan spake good of David unto Saul his father, and said unto him, Let not the king sin against his servant, against David; because he hath not sinned against thee, and because his works have been to thee-ward very good:
וְשִׁלַּשְׁתָּ תֵּרֵד מְאֹד וּבָאתָ אֶל-הַמָּקוֹם אֲשֶׁר-נִסְתַּרְתָּ שָּׁם בְּיוֹם הַֽמַּעֲשֶׂה וְיָשַׁבְתָּ אֵצֶל הָאֶבֶן הָאָֽזֶל׃
And when thou hast stayed three days, then thou shalt go down quickly, and come to the place where thou didst hide thyself when the business was in hand, and shalt remain by the stone Ezel.
וְאִישׁ בְּמָעוֹן וּמַֽעֲשֵׂהוּ בַכַּרְמֶל וְהָאִישׁ גָּדוֹל מְאֹד וְלוֹ צֹאן שְׁלֹֽשֶׁת-אֲלָפִים וְאֶלֶף עִזִּים וַיְהִי בִּגְזֹז אֶת-צֹאנוֹ בַּכַּרְמֶֽל׃
And there was a man in Maon, whose possessions were in Carmel; and the man was very great, and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.
לְבַד מִשָּׂרֵי הַנִּצָּבִים לִשְׁלֹמֹה אֲשֶׁר עַל-הַמְּלָאכָה שְׁלֹשֶׁת אֲלָפִים וּשְׁלֹשׁ מֵאוֹת הָֽרֹדִים בָּעָם הָֽעֹשִׂים בַּמְּלָאכָֽה׃
Beside the chief of Solomon's officers which were over the work, three thousand and three hundred, which ruled over the people that wrought in the work.
וּבֵיתוֹ אֲשֶׁר-יֵשֶׁב שָׁם חָצֵר הָֽאַחֶרֶת מִבֵּית לָֽאוּלָם כַּמַּֽעֲשֶׂה הַזֶּה הָיָה וּבַיִת יַֽעֲשֶׂה לְבַת-פַּרְעֹה אֲשֶׁר לָקַח שְׁלֹמֹה כָּֽאוּלָם הַזֶּֽה׃
And his house where he dwelt had another court within the porch, which was of the like work. Solomon made also an house for Pharaoh's daughter, whom he had taken to wife, like unto this porch.
בֶּן-אִשָּׁה אַלְמָנָה הוּא מִמַּטֵּה נַפְתָּלִי וְאָבִיו אִישׁ-צֹרִי חֹרֵשׁ נְחֹשֶׁת וַיִּמָּלֵא אֶת-הַחָכְמָה וְאֶת-הַתְּבוּנָה וְאֶת-הַדַּעַת לַֽעֲשׂוֹת כָּל-מְלָאכָה בַּנְּחֹשֶׁת וַיָּבוֹא אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ שְׁלֹמֹה וַיַּעַשׂ אֶת-כָּל-מְלַאכְתּֽוֹ׃
He was a widow's son of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a worker in brass: and he was filled with wisdom, and understanding, and cunning to work all works in brass. And he came to king Solomon, and wrought all his work.
שְׂבָכִים מַֽעֲשֵׂה שְׂבָכָה גְּדִלִים מַֽעֲשֵׂה שַׁרְשְׁרוֹת לַכֹּתָרֹת אֲשֶׁר עַל-רֹאשׁ הָֽעַמּוּדִים שִׁבְעָה לַכֹּתֶרֶת הָֽאֶחָת וְשִׁבְעָה לַכֹּתֶרֶת הַשֵּׁנִֽית׃
And nets of checker work, and wreaths of chain work, for the chapiters which were upon the top of the pillars; seven for the one chapiter, and seven for the other chapiter.
וְכֹֽתָרֹת אֲשֶׁר עַל-רֹאשׁ הָֽעַמּוּדִים מַֽעֲשֵׂה שׁוּשַׁן בָּֽאוּלָם אַרְבַּע אַמּֽוֹת׃
And the chapiters that were upon the top of the pillars were of lily work in the porch, four cubits.
וְעַל רֹאשׁ הָֽעַמּוּדִים מַֽעֲשֵׂה שׁוֹשָׁן וַתִּתֹּם מְלֶאכֶת הָֽעַמּוּדִֽים׃
And upon the top of the pillars was lily work: so was the work of the pillars finished.
וְעָבְיוֹ טֶפַח וּשְׂפָתוֹ כְּמַֽעֲשֵׂה שְׂפַת-כּוֹס פֶּרַח שׁוֹשָׁן אַלְפַּיִם בַּת יָכִֽיל׃
And it was an hand breadth thick, and the brim thereof was wrought like the brim of a cup, with flowers of lilies: it contained two thousand baths.
וְזֶה מַֽעֲשֵׂה הַמְּכוֹנָה מִסְגְּרֹת לָהֶם וּמִסְגְּרֹת בֵּין הַשְׁלַבִּֽים׃
And the work of the bases was on this manner: they had borders, and the borders were between the ledges:
וְעַֽל-הַמִּסְגְּרוֹת אֲשֶׁר׀ בֵּין הַשְׁלַבִּים אֲרָיוֹת׀ בָּקָר וּכְרוּבִים וְעַל-הַשְׁלַבִּים כֵּן מִמָּעַל וּמִתַּחַת לַֽאֲרָיוֹת וְלַבָּקָר לֹיוֹת מַֽעֲשֵׂה מוֹרָֽד׃
And on the borders that were between the ledges were lions, oxen, and cherubims: and upon the ledges there was a base above: and beneath the lions and oxen were certain additions made of thin work.
וּפִיהוּ מִבֵּית לַכֹּתֶרֶת וָמַעְלָה בָּֽאַמָּה וּפִיהָ עָגֹל מַֽעֲשֵׂה-כֵן אַמָּה וַֽחֲצִי הָֽאַמָּה וְגַם-עַל-פִּיהָ מִקְלָעוֹת וּמִסְגְּרֹֽתֵיהֶם מְרֻבָּעוֹת לֹא עֲגֻלּֽוֹת׃
And the mouth of it within the chapiter and above was a cubit: but the mouth thereof was round after the work of the base, a cubit and an half: and also upon the mouth of it were gravings with their borders, foursquare, not round.
וּמַֽעֲשֵׂה הָאוֹפַנִּים כְּמַֽעֲשֵׂה אוֹפַן הַמֶּרְכָּבָה יְדוֹתָם וְגַבֵּיהֶם וְחִשֻּֽׁקֵיהֶם וְחִשֻּֽׁרֵיהֶם הַכֹּל מוּצָֽק׃
And the work of the wheels was like the work of a chariot wheel: their axletrees, and their naves, and their felloes, and their spokes, were all molten.
וַיַּעַשׂ חִירוֹם אֶת-הַכִּיֹּרוֹת וְאֶת-הַיָּעִים וְאֶת-הַמִּזְרָקוֹת וַיְכַל חִירָם לַֽעֲשׂוֹת אֶת-כָּל-הַמְּלָאכָה אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה לַמֶּלֶךְ שְׁלֹמֹה בֵּית יְהוָֽה׃
And Hiram made the lavers, and the shovels, and the basons. So Hiram made an end of doing all the work that he made king Solomon for the house of the LORD:
וַתִּשְׁלַם כָּל-הַמְּלָאכָה אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה הַמֶּלֶךְ שְׁלֹמֹה בֵּית יְהוָה וַיָּבֵא שְׁלֹמֹה אֶת-קָדְשֵׁי׀ דָּוִד אָבִיו אֶת-הַכֶּסֶף וְאֶת-הַזָּהָב וְאֶת-הַכֵּלִים נָתַן בְּאֹֽצְרוֹת בֵּית יְהוָֽה׃
So was ended all the work that king Solomon made for the house of the LORD. And Solomon brought in the things which David his father had dedicated; even the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, did he put among the treasures of the house of the LORD.
אֵלֶּה׀ שָׂרֵי הַנִּצָּבִים אֲשֶׁר עַל-הַמְּלָאכָה לִשְׁלֹמֹה חֲמִשִּׁים וַֽחֲמֵשׁ מֵאוֹת הָֽרֹדִים בָּעָם הָֽעֹשִׂים בַּמְּלָאכָֽה׃
These were the chief of the officers that were over Solomon's work, five hundred and fifty, which bare rule over the people that wrought in the work.
וְהָאִישׁ יָֽרָבְעָם גִּבּוֹר חָיִל וַיַּרְא שְׁלֹמֹה אֶת-הַנַּעַר כִּֽי-עֹשֵׂה מְלָאכָה הוּא וַיַּפְקֵד אֹתוֹ לְכָל-סֵבֶל בֵּית יוֹסֵֽף׃
And the man Jeroboam was a mighty man of valour: and Solomon seeing the young man that he was industrious, he made him ruler over all the charge of the house of Joseph.
וְנָבִיא אֶחָד זָקֵן יֹשֵׁב בְּבֵֽית-אֵל וַיָּבוֹא בְנוֹ וַיְסַפֶּר-לוֹ אֶת-כָּל-הַמַּֽעֲשֶׂה אֲשֶׁר-עָשָׂה אִישׁ-הָֽאֱלֹהִים׀ הַיּוֹם בְּבֵֽית-אֵל אֶת-הַדְּבָרִים אֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ וַֽיְסַפְּרוּם לַֽאֲבִיהֶֽם׃
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.
וְגַם בְּיַד-יֵהוּא בֶן-חֲנָנִי הַנָּבִיא דְּבַר-יְהוָה הָיָה אֶל-בַּעְשָׁא וְאֶל-בֵּיתוֹ וְעַל כָּל-הָֽרָעָה׀ אֲשֶׁר-עָשָׂה׀ בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה לְהַכְעִיסוֹ בְּמַֽעֲשֵׂה יָדָיו לִֽהְיוֹת כְּבֵית יָֽרָבְעָם וְעַל אֲשֶׁר-הִכָּה אֹתֽוֹ׃
And also by the hand of the prophet Jehu the son of Hanani came the word of the LORD against Baasha, and against his house, even for all the evil that he did in the sight of the LORD, in provoking him to anger with the work of his hands, in being like the house of Jeroboam; and because he killed him.
וְנָֽתְנוּ אֶת-הַכֶּסֶף הַֽמְתֻכָּן עַל-(יד) יְדֵי עֹשֵׂי הַמְּלָאכָה (הפקדים) הַמֻּפְקָדִים בֵּית יְהוָה וַיּֽוֹצִיאֻהוּ לְחָֽרָשֵׁי הָעֵץ וְלַבֹּנִים הָֽעֹשִׂים בֵּית יְהוָֽה׃
And they gave the money, being told, into the hands of them that did the work, that had the oversight of the house of the LORD: and they laid it out to the carpenters and builders, that wrought upon the house of the LORD,
כִּֽי-לְעֹשֵׂי הַמְּלָאכָה יִתְּנֻהוּ וְחִזְּקוּ-בוֹ אֶת-בֵּית יְהוָֽה׃
But they gave that to the workmen, and repaired therewith the house of the LORD.
וְלֹא יְחַשְּׁבוּ אֶת-הָֽאֲנָשִׁים אֲשֶׁר יִתְּנוּ אֶת-הַכֶּסֶף עַל-יָדָם לָתֵת לְעֹשֵׂי הַמְּלָאכָה כִּי בֶֽאֱמֻנָה הֵם עֹשִֽׂים׃
Moreover they reckoned not with the men, into whose hand they delivered the money to be bestowed on workmen: for they dealt faithfully.
וַיֵּלֶךְ הַמֶּלֶךְ אָחָז לִקְרַאת תִּגְלַת פִּלְאֶסֶר מֶֽלֶךְ-אַשּׁוּר דּוּמֶּשֶׂק וַיַּרְא אֶת-הַמִּזְבֵּחַ אֲשֶׁר בְּדַמָּשֶׂק וַיִּשְׁלַח הַמֶּלֶךְ אָחָז אֶל-אֽוּרִיָּה הַכֹּהֵן אֶת-דְּמוּת הַמִּזְבֵּחַ וְאֶת-תַּבְנִיתוֹ לְכָֽל-מַעֲשֵֽׂהוּ׃
And king Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, and saw an altar that was at Damascus: and king Ahaz sent to Urijah the priest the fashion of the altar, and the pattern of it, according to all the workmanship thereof.
וְנָֽתְנוּ אֶת-אֱלֹֽהֵיהֶם בָּאֵשׁ כִּי לֹא אֱלֹהִים הֵמָּה כִּי אִם-מַֽעֲשֵׂה יְדֵֽי-אָדָם עֵץ וָאֶבֶן וַֽיְאַבְּדֽוּם׃
And have cast their gods into the fire: for they were no gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone: therefore they have destroyed them.
(ויתנה) וְיִתְּנֻהוּ עַל-יַד עֹשֵׂי הַמְּלָאכָה הַמֻּפְקָדִים (בבית) בֵּית יְהוָה וְיִתְּנוּ אֹתוֹ לְעֹשֵׂי הַמְּלָאכָה אֲשֶׁר בְּבֵית יְהוָה לְחַזֵּק בֶּדֶק הַבָּֽיִת׃
And let them deliver it into the hand of the doers of the work, that have the oversight of the house of the LORD: and let them give it to the doers of the work which is in the house of the LORD, to repair the breaches of the house,
וַיָּבֹא שָׁפָן הַסֹּפֵר אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיָּשֶׁב אֶת-הַמֶּלֶךְ דָּבָר וַיֹּאמֶר הִתִּיכוּ עֲבָדֶיךָ אֶת-הַכֶּסֶף הַנִּמְצָא בַבַּיִת וַֽיִּתְּנֻהוּ עַל-יַד עֹשֵׂי הַמְּלָאכָה הַמֻּפְקָדִים בֵּית יְהוָֽה׃
And Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, Thy servants have gathered the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hand of them that do the work, that have the oversight of the house of the LORD.
תַּחַת׀ אֲשֶׁר עֲזָבוּנִי וַֽיְקַטְּרוּ לֵֽאלֹהִים אֲחֵרִים לְמַעַן הַכְעִיסֵנִי בְּכֹל מַֽעֲשֵׂה יְדֵיהֶם וְנִצְּתָה חֲמָתִי בַּמָּקוֹם הַזֶּה וְלֹא תִכְבֶּֽה׃
Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands; therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and shall not be quenched.
וְגַם אֶת-כָּל-בָּתֵּי הַבָּמוֹת אֲשֶׁר׀ בְּעָרֵי שֹֽׁמְרוֹן אֲשֶׁר עָשׂוּ מַלְכֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל לְהַכְעִיס הֵסִיר יֹֽאשִׁיָּהוּ וַיַּעַשׂ לָהֶם כְּכָל-הַֽמַּעֲשִׂים אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה בְּבֵֽית-אֵֽל׃
And all the houses also of the high places that were in the cities of Samaria, which the kings of Israel had made to provoke the Lord to anger, Josiah took away, and did to them according to all the acts that he had done in Beth-el.
הֵמָּה הַיּוֹצְרִים וְיֹֽשְׁבֵי נְטָעִים וּגְדֵרָה עִם-הַמֶּלֶךְ בִּמְלַאכְתּוֹ יָשְׁבוּ שָֽׁם׃
These were the potters, and those that dwelt among plants and hedges: there they dwelt with the king for his work.
וְֽאַהֲרֹן וּבָנָיו מַקְטִירִים עַל-מִזְבַּח הָֽעוֹלָה וְעַל-מִזְבַּח הַקְּטֹרֶת לְכֹל מְלֶאכֶת קֹדֶשׁ הַקֳּדָשִׁים וּלְכַפֵּר עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵל כְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר צִוָּה מֹשֶׁה עֶבֶד הָֽאֱלֹהִֽים׃
But Aaron and his sons offered upon the altar of the burnt offering, and on the altar of incense, and were appointed for all the work of the place most holy, and to make an atonement for Israel, according to all that Moses the servant of God had commanded.
וַֽאֲחֵיהֶם רָאשִׁים לְבֵית אֲבוֹתָם אֶלֶף וּשְׁבַע מֵאוֹת וְשִׁשִּׁים גִּבּוֹרֵי חֵיל מְלֶאכֶת עֲבוֹדַת בֵּית-הָֽאֱלֹהִֽים׃
And their brethren, heads of the house of their fathers, a thousand and seven hundred and threescore; very able men for the work of the service of the house of God.
וְשַׁלּוּם בֶּן-קוֹרֵא בֶּן-אֶבְיָסָף בֶּן-קֹרַח וְֽאֶחָיו לְבֵית-אָבִיו הַקָּרְחִים עַל מְלֶאכֶת הָֽעֲבוֹדָה שֹֽׁמְרֵי הַסִּפִּים לָאֹהֶל וַאֲבֹֽתֵיהֶם עַל-מַֽחֲנֵה יְהוָה שֹֽׁמְרֵי הַמָּבֽוֹא׃
And Shallum the son of Kore, the son of Ebiasaph, the son of Korah, and his brethren, of the house of his father, the Korahites, were over the work of the service, keepers of the gates of the tabernacle: and their fathers, being over the host of the LORD, were keepers of the entry.
וּמַתִּתְיָה מִן-הַלְוִיִּם הוּא הַבְּכוֹר לְשַׁלֻּם הַקָּרְחִי בֶּֽאֱמוּנָה עַל מַֽעֲשֵׂה הַֽחֲבִתִּֽים׃
And Mattithiah, one of the Levites, who was the firstborn of Shallum the Korahite, had the set office over the things that were made in the pans.
וְאֵלֶּה הַמְשֹֽׁרְרִים רָאשֵׁי אָבוֹת לַלְוִיִּם בַּלְּשָׁכֹת (פטירים) פְּטוּרִים כִּֽי-יוֹמָם וָלַיְלָה עֲלֵיהֶם בַּמְּלָאכָֽה׃
And these are the singers, chief of the fathers of the Levites, who remaining in the chambers were free: for they were employed in that work day and night.
וְעִמְּךָ לָרֹב עֹשֵׂי מְלָאכָה חֹֽצְבִים וְחָֽרָשֵׁי אֶבֶן וָעֵץ וְכָל-חָכָם בְּכָל-מְלָאכָֽה׃
Moreover there are workmen with thee in abundance, hewers and workers of stone and timber, and all manner of cunning men for every manner of work.
מֵאֵלֶּה לְנַצֵּחַ עַל-מְלֶאכֶת בֵּית-יְהוָה עֶשְׂרִים וְאַרְבָּעָה אָלֶף וְשֹֽׁטְרִים וְשֹֽׁפְטִים שֵׁשֶׁת אֲלָפִֽים׃
Of which, twenty and four thousand were to set forward the work of the house of the LORD; and six thousand were officers and judges:
אֵלֶּה בְנֵֽי-לֵוִי לְבֵית אֲבוֹתֵיהֶם רָאשֵׁי הָֽאָבוֹת לִפְקֽוּדֵיהֶם בְּמִסְפַּר שֵׁמוֹת לְגֻלְגְּלֹתָם עֹשֵׂה הַמְּלָאכָה לַֽעֲבֹדַת בֵּית יְהוָה מִבֶּן עֶשְׂרִים שָׁנָה וָמָֽעְלָה׃
These were the sons of Levi after the house of their fathers; even the chief of the fathers, as they were counted by number of names by their polls, that did the work for the service of the house of the LORD, from the age of twenty years and upward.
כִּי מַֽעֲמָדָם לְיַד-בְּנֵי אַֽהֲרֹן לַֽעֲבֹדַת בֵּית יְהוָה עַל-הַֽחֲצֵרוֹת וְעַל-הַלְּשָׁכוֹת וְעַֽל-טָהֳרַת לְכָל-קֹדֶשׁ וּמַֽעֲשֵׂה עֲבֹדַת בֵּית הָֽאֱלֹהִֽים׃
Because their office was to wait on the sons of Aaron for the service of the house of the LORD, in the courts, and in the chambers, and in the purifying of all holy things, and the work of the service of the house of God;
וַיַּבְדֵּל דָּוִיד וְשָׂרֵי הַצָּבָא לַֽעֲבֹדָה לִבְנֵי אָסָף וְהֵימָן וִֽידוּתוּן (הנביאים) הַֽנִּבְּאִים בְּכִנֹּרוֹת בִּנְבָלִים וּבִמְצִלְתָּיִם וַֽיְהִי מִסְפָּרָם אַנְשֵׁי מְלָאכָה לַעֲבֹֽדָתָֽם׃
Moreover David and the captains of the host separated to the service of the sons of Asaph, and of Heman, and of Jeduthun, who should prophesy with harps, with psalteries, and with cymbals: and the number of the workmen according to their service was:
לַיִּצְהָרִי כְּנַנְיָהוּ וּבָנָיו לַמְּלָאכָה הַחִֽיצוֹנָה עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵל לְשֹֽׁטְרִים וּלְשֹֽׁפְטִֽים׃
Of the Izharites, Chenaniah and his sons were for the outward business over Israel, for officers and judges.
לַֽחֶבְרוֹנִי חֲשַׁבְיָהוּ וְאֶחָיו בְּנֵי-חַיִל אֶלֶף וּשְׁבַע-מֵאוֹת עַל פְּקֻדַּת יִשְׂרָאֵל מֵעֵבֶר לַיַּרְדֵּן מַעְרָבָה לְכֹל מְלֶאכֶת יְהוָה וְלַֽעֲבֹדַת הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
And of the Hebronites, Hashabiah and his brethren, men of valour, a thousand and seven hundred, were officers among them of Israel on this side Jordan westward in all the business of the LORD, and in the service of the king.
וְעַל עֹשֵׂי מְלֶאכֶת הַשָּׂדֶה לַֽעֲבֹדַת הָֽאֲדָמָה עֶזְרִי בֶּן-כְּלֽוּב׃
And over them that did the work of the field for tillage of the ground was Ezri the son of Chelub:
וּֽלְמַחְלְקוֹת הַכֹּֽהֲנִים וְהַלְוִיִּם וּֽלְכָל-מְלֶאכֶת עֲבוֹדַת בֵּית-יְהוָה וּֽלְכָל-כְּלֵי עֲבוֹדַת בֵּית-יְהוָֽה׃
Also for the courses of the priests and the Levites, and for all the work of the service of the house of the LORD, and for all the vessels of service in the house of the LORD.
הַכֹּל בִּכְתָב מִיַּד יְהוָה עָלַי הִשְׂכִּיל כֹּל מַלְאֲכוֹת הַתַּבְנִֽית׃
All this, said David, the LORD made me understand in writing by his hand upon me, even all the works of this pattern.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד לִשְׁלֹמֹה בְנוֹ חֲזַק וֶֽאֱמַץ וַֽעֲשֵׂה אַל-תִּירָא וְאַל-תֵּחָת כִּי יְהוָה אֱלֹהִים אֱלֹהַי עִמָּךְ לֹא יַרְפְּךָ וְלֹא יַֽעַזְבֶךָּ עַד-לִכְלוֹת כָּל-מְלֶאכֶת עֲבוֹדַת בֵּית-יְהוָֽה׃
And David said to Solomon his son, Be strong and of good courage, and do it: fear not, nor be dismayed: for the LORD God, even my God, will be with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee, until thou hast finished all the work for the service of the house of the LORD.
וְהִנֵּה מַחְלְקוֹת הַכֹּֽהֲנִים וְהַלְוִיִּם לְכָל-עֲבוֹדַת בֵּית הָֽאֱלֹהִים וְעִמְּךָ בְכָל-מְלָאכָה לְכָל-נָדִיב בַּֽחָכְמָה לְכָל-עֲבוֹדָה וְהַשָּׂרִים וְכָל-הָעָם לְכָל-דְּבָרֶֽיךָ׃
And, behold, the courses of the priests and the Levites, even they shall be with thee for all the service of the house of God: and there shall be with thee for all manner of workmanship every willing skilful man, for any manner of service: also the princes and all the people will be wholly at thy commandment.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד הַמֶּלֶךְ לְכָל-הַקָּהָל שְׁלֹמֹה בְנִי אֶחָד בָּֽחַר-בּוֹ אֱלֹהִים נַעַר וָרָךְ וְהַמְּלָאכָה גְדוֹלָה כִּי לֹא לְאָדָם הַבִּירָה כִּי לַֽיהוָה אֱלֹהִֽים׃
Furthermore David the king said unto all the congregation, Solomon my son, whom alone God hath chosen, is yet young and tender, and the work is great: for the palace is not for man, but for the LORD God.
לַזָּהָב לַזָּהָב וְלַכֶּסֶף לַכֶּסֶף וּלְכָל-מְלָאכָה בְּיַד חָֽרָשִׁים וּמִי מִתְנַדֵּב לְמַלֹּאות יָדוֹ הַיּוֹם לַֽיהוָֽה׃
The gold for things of gold, and the silver for things of silver, and for all manner of work to be made by the hands of artificers. And who then is willing to consecrate his service this day unto the LORD?
וַיִּֽתְנַדְּבוּ שָׂרֵי הָֽאָבוֹת וְשָׂרֵי׀ שִׁבְטֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְשָׂרֵי הָֽאֲלָפִים וְהַמֵּאוֹת וּלְשָׂרֵי מְלֶאכֶת הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
Then the chief of the fathers and princes of the tribes of Israel, and the captains of thousands and of hundreds, with the rulers of the king's work, offered willingly,
וַיַּעַשׂ בְּבֵֽית-קֹדֶשׁ הַקֳּדָשִׁים כְּרוּבִים שְׁנַיִם מַֽעֲשֵׂה צַֽעֲצֻעִים וַיְצַפּוּ אֹתָם זָהָֽב׃
And in the most holy house he made two cherubims of image work, and overlaid them with gold.
וְעָבְיוֹ טֶפַח וּשְׂפָתוֹ כְּמַֽעֲשֵׂה שְׂפַת-כּוֹס פֶּרַח שֽׁוֹשַׁנָּה מַֽחֲזִיק בַּתִּים שְׁלֹשֶׁת אֲלָפִים יָכִֽיל׃
And the thickness of it was an handbreadth, and the brim of it like the work of the brim of a cup, with flowers of lilies; and it received and held three thousand baths.
וַיַּעַשׂ כִּיּוֹרִים עֲשָׂרָה וַיִּתֵּן חֲמִשָּׁה מִיָּמִין וַֽחֲמִשָּׁה מִשְּׂמֹאול לְרָחְצָה בָהֶם אֶת-מַֽעֲשֵׂה הָֽעוֹלָה יָדִיחוּ בָם וְהַיָּם לְרָחְצָה לַכֹּֽהֲנִים בּֽוֹ׃
He made also ten lavers, and put five on the right hand, and five on the left, to wash in them: such things as they offered for the burnt offering they washed in them; but the sea was for the priests to wash in.
וַיַּעַשׂ חוּרָם אֶת-הַסִּירוֹת וְאֶת-הַיָּעִים וְאֶת-הַמִּזְרָקוֹת וַיְכַל חיּרָם לַֽעֲשׂוֹת אֶת-הַמְּלָאכָה אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה לַמֶּלֶךְ שְׁלֹמֹה בְּבֵית הָֽאֱלֹהִֽים׃
And Huram made the pots, and the shovels, and the basons. And Huram finished the work that he was to make for king Solomon for the house of God;
וַתִּשְׁלַם כָּל-הַמְּלָאכָה אֲשֶׁר-עָשָׂה שְׁלֹמֹה לְבֵית יְהוָה וַיָּבֵא שְׁלֹמֹה אֶת-קָדְשֵׁי׀ דָּוִיד אָבִיו וְאֶת-הַכֶּסֶף וְאֶת-הַזָּהָב וְאֶת-כָּל-הַכֵּלִים נָתַן בְּאֹֽצְרוֹת בֵּית הָֽאֱלֹהִֽים׃
Thus all the work that Solomon made for the house of the LORD was finished: and Solomon brought in all the things that David his father had dedicated; and the silver, and the gold, and all the instruments, put he among the treasures of the house of God.
וּמִן-בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל אֲשֶׁר לֹֽא-נָתַן שְׁלֹמֹה לַֽעֲבָדִים לִמְלַאכְתּוֹ כִּי-הֵמָּה אַנְשֵׁי מִלְחָמָה וְשָׂרֵי שָֽׁלִישָׁיו וְשָׂרֵי רִכְבּוֹ וּפָֽרָשָֽׁיו׃
But of the children of Israel did Solomon make no servants for his work; but they were men of war, and chief of his captains, and captains of his chariots and horsemen.
וַתִּכֹּן כָּל-מְלֶאכֶת שְׁלֹמֹה עַד-הַיּוֹם מוּסַד בֵּית-יְהוָה וְעַד-כְּלֹתוֹ שָׁלֵם בֵּית יְהוָֽה׃
Now all the work of Solomon was prepared unto the day of the foundation of the house of the LORD, and until it was finished. So the house of the LORD was perfected.
וַֽאֲנַחְנוּ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ וְלֹא עֲזַבְנֻהוּ וְכֹהֲנִים מְשָֽׁרְתִים לַֽיהוָה בְּנֵי אַֽהֲרֹן וְהַלְוִיִּם בַּמְלָֽאכֶת׃
But as for us, the LORD is our God, and we have not forsaken him; and the priests, which minister unto the LORD, are the sons of Aaron, and the Levites wait upon their business:
וַֽיְהִי כִּשְׁמֹעַ בַּעְשָׁא וַיֶּחְדַּל מִבְּנוֹת אֶת-הָֽרָמָה וַיַּשְׁבֵּת אֶת-מְלַאכְתּֽוֹ׃
And it came to pass, when Baasha heard it, that he left off building of Ramah, and let his work cease.
וַיִּקְבְּרֻהוּ בְקִבְרֹתָיו אֲשֶׁר כָּֽרָה-לוֹ בְּעִיר דָּוִיד וַיַּשְׁכִּיבֻהוּ בַּמִּשְׁכָּב אֲשֶׁר מִלֵּא בְּשָׂמִים וּזְנִים מְרֻקָּחִים בְּמִרְקַחַת מַֽעֲשֶׂה וַיִּשְׂרְפוּ-לוֹ שְׂרֵפָה גְּדוֹלָה עַד-לִמְאֹֽד׃
And they buried him in his own sepulchres, which he had made for himself in the city of David, and laid him in the bed which was filled with sweet odours and divers kinds of spices prepared by the apothecaries' art: and they made a very great burning for him.
כִּי לֵֽאלֹהֵי אָבִיו דָּרָשׁ וּבְמִצְוֹתָיו הָלָךְ וְלֹא כְּמַֽעֲשֵׂה יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
But sought to the Lord God of his father, and walked in his commandments, and not after the doings of Israel.
וּמְלָאכָה רַבָּה הָיָה לוֹ בְּעָרֵי יְהוּדָה וְאַנְשֵׁי מִלְחָמָה גִּבּוֹרֵי חַיִל בִּירֽוּשָׁלִָֽם׃
And he had much business in the cities of Judah: and the men of war, mighty men of valour, were in Jerusalem.
וַיִּתְנַבֵּא אֱלִיעֶזֶר בֶּן-דֹּֽדָוָהוּ מִמָּרֵשָׁה עַל-יְהֽוֹשָׁפָט לֵאמֹר כְּהִֽתְחַבֶּרְךָ עִם-אֲחַזְיָהוּ פָּרַץ יְהוָה אֶֽת-מַעֲשֶׂיךָ וַיִּשָּֽׁבְרוּ אֳנִיּוֹת וְלֹא עָֽצְרוּ לָלֶכֶת אֶל-תַּרְשִֽׁישׁ׃
Then Eliezer the son of Dodavah of Mareshah prophesied against Jehoshaphat, saying, Because thou hast joined thyself with Ahaziah, the LORD hath broken thy works. And the ships were broken, that they were not able to go to Tarshish.
וַיִּתְּנֵהוּ הַמֶּלֶךְ וִיהֽוֹיָדָע אֶל-עוֹשֵׂה מְלֶאכֶת עֲבוֹדַת בֵּית-יְהוָה וַיִּֽהְיוּ שֹֽׂכְרִים חֹֽצְבִים וְחָֽרָשִׁים לְחַדֵּשׁ בֵּית יְהוָה וְגַם לְחָֽרָשֵׁי בַרְזֶל וּנְחֹשֶׁת לְחַזֵּק אֶת-בֵּית יְהוָֽה׃
And the king and Jehoiada gave it to such as did the work of the service of the house of the LORD, and hired masons and carpenters to repair the house of the LORD, and also such as wrought iron and brass to mend the house of the LORD.
וַֽיַּעֲשׂוּ עֹשֵׂי הַמְּלָאכָה וַתַּעַל אֲרוּכָה לַמְּלָאכָה בְּיָדָם וַֽיַּעֲמִידוּ אֶת-בֵּית הָֽאֱלֹהִים עַל-מַתְכֻּנְתּוֹ וַֽיְאַמְּצֻֽהוּ׃
So the workmen wrought, and the work was perfected by them, and they set the house of God in his state, and strengthened it.
רַק הַכֹּֽהֲנִים הָיוּ לִמְעָט וְלֹא יָֽכְלוּ לְהַפְשִׁיט אֶת-כָּל-הָֽעֹלוֹת וַֽיְחַזְּקוּם אֲחֵיהֶם הַלְוִיִּם עַד-כְּלוֹת הַמְּלָאכָה וְעַד יִתְקַדְּשׁוּ הַכֹּֽהֲנִים כִּי הַלְוִיִּם יִשְׁרֵי לֵבָב לְהִתְקַדֵּשׁ מֵהַכֹּֽהֲנִֽים׃
But the priests were too few, so that they could not flay all the burnt offerings: wherefore their brethren the Levites did help them, till the work was ended, and until the other priests had sanctified themselves: for the Levites were more upright in heart to sanctify themselves than the priests.
וּבְכָֽל-מַעֲשֶׂה אֲשֶׁר-הֵחֵל׀ בַּֽעֲבוֹדַת בֵּית-הָֽאֱלֹהִים וּבַתּוֹרָה וּבַמִּצְוָה לִדְרֹשׁ לֵֽאלֹהָיו בְּכָל-לְבָבוֹ עָשָׂה וְהִצְלִֽיחַ׃
And in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, and in the law, and in the commandments, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart, and prospered.
וַֽיְדַבְּרוּ אֶל-אֱלֹהֵי יְרֽוּשָׁלִָם כְּעַל אֱלֹהֵי עַמֵּי הָאָרֶץ מַֽעֲשֵׂה יְדֵי הָֽאָדָֽם׃
And they spake against the God of Jerusalem, as against the gods of the people of the earth, which were the work of the hands of man.
וְהוּא יְחִזְקִיָּהוּ סָתַם אֶת-מוֹצָא מֵימֵי גִיחוֹן הָֽעֶלְיוֹן וַֽיַּישְּׁרֵם לְמַֽטָּה-מַּעְרָבָה לְעִיר דָּוִיד וַיַּצְלַח יְחִזְקִיָּהוּ בְּכָֽל-מַעֲשֵֽׂהוּ׃
This same Hezekiah also stopped the upper watercourse of Gihon, and brought it straight down to the west side of the city of David. And Hezekiah prospered in all his works.
וַֽיִּתְּנוּ עַל-יַד עֹשֵׂה הַמְּלָאכָה הַמֻּפְקָדִים בְּבֵית יְהוָה וַיִּתְּנוּ אֹתוֹ עוֹשֵׂי הַמְּלָאכָה אֲשֶׁר עֹשִׂים בְּבֵית יְהוָה לִבְדּוֹק וּלְחַזֵּק הַבָּֽיִת׃
And they put it in the hand of the workmen that had the oversight of the house of the LORD, and they gave it to the workmen that wrought in the house of the LORD, to repair and amend the house:
וְהָֽאֲנָשִׁים עֹשִׂים בֶּֽאֱמוּנָה בַּמְּלָאכָה וַֽעֲלֵיהֶם׀ מֻפְקָדִים יַחַת וְעֹֽבַדְיָהוּ הַלְוִיִּם מִן-בְּנֵי מְרָרִי וּזְכַרְיָה וּמְשֻׁלָּם מִן-בְּנֵי הַקְּהָתִים לְנַצֵּחַ וְהַלְוִיִּם כָּל-מֵבִין בִּכְלֵי-שִֽׁיר׃
And the men did the work faithfully: and the overseers of them were Jahath and Obadiah, the Levites, of the sons of Merari; and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the sons of the Kohathites, to set it forward; and other of the Levites, all that could skill of instruments of musick.
וְעַל הַסַּבָּלִים וּֽמְנַצְּחִים לְכֹל עֹשֵׂה מְלָאכָה לַֽעֲבוֹדָה וַֽעֲבוֹדָה וּמֵֽהַלְוִיִּם סֽוֹפְרִים וְשֹֽׁטְרִים וְשֽׁוֹעֲרִֽים׃
Also they were over the bearers of burdens, and were overseers of all that wrought the work in any manner of service: and of the Levites there were scribes, and officers, and porters.
וַיַּתִּיכוּ אֶת-הַכֶּסֶף הַנִּמְצָא בְּבֵית-יְהוָה וַֽיִּתְּנוּהוּ עַל-יַד הַמֻּפְקָדִים וְעַל-יַד עוֹשֵׂי הַמְּלָאכָֽה׃
And they have gathered together the money that was found in the house of the LORD, and have delivered it into the hand of the overseers, and to the hand of the workmen.
תַּחַת׀ אֲשֶׁר עֲזָבוּנִי (ויקטירו) וַֽיְקַטְּרוּ לֵֽאלֹהִים אֲחֵרִים לְמַעַן הַכְעִיסֵנִי בְּכֹל מַֽעֲשֵׂי יְדֵיהֶם וְתִתַּךְ חֲמָתִי בַּמָּקוֹם הַזֶּה וְלֹא תִכְבֶּֽה׃
Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands; therefore my wrath shall be poured out upon this place, and shall not be quenched.
