Exodus 36-37

36:1 And Bezalel and Oholiab shall work, and every wise-hearted man, in whom Jehovah hath put wisdom and understanding to know how to work all the work for the service of the sanctuary, according to all that Jehovah hath commanded.
36:2 And Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab, and every wise-hearted man, in whose heart Jehovah had put wisdom, even every one whose heart stirred him up to come unto the work to do it:
36:3 and they received of Moses all the offering which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, wherewith to make it. And they brought yet unto him freewill-offerings every morning.
36:4 And all the wise men, that wrought all the work of the sanctuary, came every man from his work which they wrought;
36:5 and they spake unto Moses, saying, The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work which Jehovah commanded to make.
36:6 And Moses gave commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman make any more work for the offering of the sanctuary. So the people were restrained from bringing.
36:7 For the stuff they had was sufficient for all the work to make it, and too much.
36:8 And all the wise-hearted men among them that wrought the work made the tabernacle with ten curtains; of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, with cherubim, the work of the skilful workman, Bezalel made them.
36:9 The length of each curtain was eight and twenty cubits, and the breadth of each curtain four cubits: all the curtains had one measure.
36:10 And he coupled five curtains one to another: and the other five curtains he coupled one to another.
36:11 And he made loops of blue upon the edge of the one curtain from the selvedge in the coupling: likewise he made in the edge of the curtain that was outmost in the second coupling.
36:12 Fifty loops made he in the one curtain, and fifty loops made he in the edge of the curtain that was in the second coupling: the loops were opposite one to another.
36:13 And he made fifty clasps of gold, and coupled the curtains one to another with the clasps: so the tabernacle was one.
36:14 And he made curtains of goats’ hair for a tent over the tabernacle: eleven curtains he made them.
36:15 The length of each curtain was thirty cubits, and four cubits the breadth of each curtain: the eleven curtains had one measure.
36:16 And he coupled five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves.
36:17 And he made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that was outmost in the coupling, and fifty loops made he upon the edge of the curtain which was outmost in the second coupling.
36:18 And he made fifty clasps of brass to couple the tent together, that it might be one.
36:19 And he made a covering for the tent of rams’ skins dyed red, and a covering of sealskins above.
36:20 And he made the boards for the tabernacle, of acacia wood, standing up.
36:21 Ten cubits was the length of a board, and a cubit and a half the breadth of each board.
36:22 Each board had two tenons, joined one to another: thus did he make for all the boards of the tabernacle.
36:23 And he made the boards for the tabernacle: twenty boards for the south side southward;
36:24 and he made forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards; two sockets under one board for its two tenons, and two sockets under another board for its two tenons.
36:25 And for the second side of the tabernacle, on the north side, he made twenty boards,
36:26 and their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.
36:27 And for the hinder part of the tabernacle westward he made six boards.
36:28 And two boards made he for the corners of the tabernacle in the hinder part.
36:29 And they were double beneath; and in like manner they were entire unto the top thereof unto one ring: thus he did to both of them in the two corners.
36:30 And there were eight boards, and their sockets of silver, sixteen sockets; under every board two sockets.
36:31 And he made bars of acacia wood; five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,
36:32 and five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle for the hinder part westward.
36:33 And he made the middle bar to pass through in the midst of the boards from the one end to the other.
36:34 And he overlaid the boards with gold, and made their rings of gold for places for the bars, and overlaid the bars with gold.
36:35 And he made the veil of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen: with cherubim, the work of the skilful workman, made he it.
36:36 And he made thereunto four pillars of acacia, and overlaid them with gold: their hooks were of gold; and he cast for them four sockets of silver.
36:37 And he made a screen for the door of the Tent, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, the work of the embroiderer;
36:38 and the five pillars of it with their hooks: and he overlaid their capitals and their fillets with gold; and their five sockets were of brass.
37:1 And Bezalel made the ark of acacia wood: two cubits and a half was the length of it, and a cubit and a half the breadth of it, and a cubit and a half the height of it.
37:2 And he overlaid it with pure gold within and without, and made a crown of gold to it round about.
37:3 And he cast for it four rings of gold, in the four feet thereof; even two rings on the one side of it, and two rings on the other side of it.
37:4 And he made staves of acacia wood, and overlaid them with gold.
37:5 And he put the staves into the rings on the sides of the ark, to bear the ark.
37:6 And he made a mercy-seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half was the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof.
37:7 And he made two cherubim of gold; of beaten work made he them, at the two ends of the mercy-seat;
37:8 one cherub at the one end, and one cherub at the other end: of one piece with the mercy-seat made he the cherubim at the two ends thereof.
37:9 And the cherubim spread out their wings on high, covering the mercy-seat with their wings, with their faces one to another; toward the mercy-seat were the faces of the cherubim.
37:10 And he made the table of acacia wood: two cubits was the length thereof, and a cubit the breadeth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.
37:11 And he overlaid it with pure gold, and made thereto a crown of gold round about.
37:12 And he made unto it a border of a handbreadth round about, and made a golden crown to the border thereof round about.
37:13 And he cast for it four rings of gold, and put the rings in the four corners that were on the four feet thereof.
37:14 Close by the border were the rings, the places for the staves to bear the table.
37:15 And he made the staves of acacia wood, and overlaid them with gold, to bear the table.
37:16 And he made the vessels which were upon the table, the dishes thereof, and the spoons thereof, and the bowls thereof, and the flagons thereof, wherewith to pour out, of pure gold.
37:17 And he made the candlestick of pure gold: of beaten work made he the candlestick, even its base, and its shaft; its cups, it knops, and its flowers, were of one piece with it.
37:18 And there were six branches going out of the sides thereof; three branches of the candlestick out of the one side thereof, and three branches of the candlestick out of the other side thereof:
37:19 three cups made like almond-blossoms in one branch, a knop and a flower, and three cups made like almond-blossoms in the other branch, a knop and a flower: so for the six branches going out of the candlestick.
37:20 And in the candlestick were four cups made like almond-blossoms, the knops thereof, and the flowers thereof;
37:21 and a knop under two branches of one piece with it, and a knop under two branches of one piece with it, and a knop under two branches of one piece with it, for the six branches going out of it.
37:22 Their knops and their branches were of one piece with it: the whole of it was one beaten work of pure gold.
37:23 And he made the lamps thereof, seven, and the snuffers thereof, and the snuffdishes thereof, of pure gold.
37:24 Of a talent of pure gold made he it, and all the vessels thereof.
37:25 And he made the altar of incense of acacia wood: a cubit was the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof, foursquare; and two cubits was the height thereof; the horns thereof were of one piece with it.
37:26 And he overlaid it with pure gold, the top thereof, and the sides thereof round about, and the horns of it: and he made unto it a crown of gold round about.
37:27 And he made for it two golden rings under the crown thereof, upon the two ribs thereof, upon the two sides of it, for places for staves wherewith to bear it.
37:28 And he made the staves of acacia wood, and overlaid them with gold.
37:29 And he made the holy anointing oil, and the pure incense of sweet spices, after the art of the perfumer.

Psalm 68:1-20

68:1 For the Chief Musician; A Psalm of David, a Song. Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered; Let them also that hate him flee before him.
68:2 As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: As wax melteth before the fire, So let the wicked perish at the presence of God.
68:3 But let the righteous be glad; let them exult before God: Yea, let them rejoice with gladness.
68:4 Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: Cast up a highway for him that rideth through the deserts; His name is Jehovah; and exult ye before him.
68:5 A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, Is God in his holy habitation.
68:6 God setteth the solitary in families: He bringeth out the prisoners into prosperity; But the rebellious dwell in a parched land.
68:7 O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, When thou didst march through the wilderness; [Selah
68:8 The earth trembled, The heavens also dropped rain at the presence of God: Yon Sinai trembled at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
68:9 Thou, O God, didst send a plentiful rain, Thou didst confirm thine inheritance, when it was weary.
68:10 Thy congregation dwelt therein: Thou, O God, didst prepare of thy goodness for the poor.
68:11 The Lord giveth the word: The women that publish the tidings are a great host.
68:12 Kings of armies flee, they flee; And she that tarrieth at home divideth the spoil.
68:13 When ye lie among the sheepfolds, It is as the wings of a dove covered with silver, And her pinions with yellow gold.
68:14 When the Almighty scattered kings therein, It was as when it snoweth in Zalmon.
68:15 A mountain of God is the mountain of Bashan; A high mountain is the mountain of Bashan.
68:16 Why look ye askance, ye high mountains, At the mountain which God hath desired for his abode? Yea, Jehovah will dwell in it for ever.
68:17 The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands upon thousands: The Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in the sanctuary.
68:18 Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led away captives; Thou hast received gifts among men, Yea, among the rebellious also, that Jehovah God might dwell with them.
68:19 Blessed be the Lord, who daily beareth our burden, Even the God who is our salvation. [Selah
68:20 God is unto us a God of deliverances; And unto Jehovah the Lord belongeth escape from death.

Mark 3:20-35

3:20 And the multitude cometh together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread.
3:21 And when his friends heard it, they went out to lay hold on him: for they said, He is beside himself.
3:22 And the scribes that came down from Jerusalem said, He hath Beelzebub, and, By the prince of the demons casteth he out the demons.
3:23 And he called them unto him, and said unto them in parables, How can Satan cast out Satan?
3:24 And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.
3:25 And if a house be divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand.
3:26 And if Satan hath risen up against himself, and is divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end.
3:27 But no one can enter into the house of the strong man, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man; and then he will spoil his house.
3:28 Verily I say unto you, All their sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and their blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme:
3:29 but whosoever shall blaspheme against the Holy Spirit hath never forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin:
3:30 because they said, He hath an unclean spirit.
3:31 And there come his mother and his brethren; and, standing without, they sent unto him, calling him.
3:32 And a multitude was sitting about him; and they say unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren without seek for thee.
3:33 And he answereth them, and saith, Who is my mother and my brethren?
3:34 And looking round on them that sat round about him, he saith, Behold, my mother and my brethren!
3:35 For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.
