Moses summons the whole congregation of Israel, renews the command to keep six days of work and a seventh of Sabbath rest, and calls for a freewill offering to build the tabernacle.

Lyrics
Moses assembled all the congregation of the children of Israel And said to them, these are the words which the LORD has commanded That you should do them
Six days shall work be done But on the seventh day there shall be a holy day for you A Sabbath of solemn rest to the LORD Whoever does any work in it shall be put to death
You shall kindle no fire throughout your habitations on the Sabbath day Moses spoke to all the congregation of the children of Israel Saying, this is the thing which the LORD commanded Take from amongst you an offering to the LORD
Whoever is of a willing heart let him bring it as the LORD’s offering Gold silver bronze blue purple scarlet fine linen goats’ hair
Rams’ skins dyed red sea cow hides acacia wood Oil for the light spices for the anointing oil And for the sweet incense onyx stones and stones to be set For the ephod and for the breastplate
Let every wise-hearted man amongst you come and make All that the LORD has commanded the tabernacle its outer covering Its roof its clasps its boards its bars its pillars and its sockets
The ark and its poles the mercy seat the veil of the screen The table with its poles and all its vessels and the show bread The lamp stand also for the light with its vessels its lamps And the oil for the light
And the altar of incense with its poles The anointing oil the sweet incense The screen for the door at the door of the tabernacle The altar of burnt offering with its grating of bronze
Its poles and all its vessels the basin and its base The hangings of the court its pillars their sockets And the screen for the gate of the court the pins of the tabernacle The pins of the court and their cords
The finely worked garments for ministering in the holy place The holy garments for Aaron the priest And the garments of his sons to minister in the priest’s office All the congregation of the children of Israel departed
From the presence of Moses Everyone whose heart stirred him up came And brought his offering to the LORD For the work of the Tent of Meeting and for all its service And for the holy garments
