3
You shall kindle no fire throughout your dwellings on the Sabbath day."

6
blue, purple, and scarlet thread, fine linen, and goats' hair;
7
ram skins dyed red, badger skins, and acacia wood;
8
oil for the light, and spices for the anointing oil and for the sweet incense;
9
onyx stones, and stones to be set in the ephod and in the breastplate.

12
the ark and its poles, with the mercy seat, and the veil of the covering;

14
also the lampstand for the light, its utensils, its lamps, and the oil for the light;
15
the incense altar, its poles, the anointing oil, the sweet incense, and the screen for the door at the entrance of the tabernacle;
16
the altar of burnt offering with its bronze grating, its poles, all its utensils, and the laver and its base;
17
the hangings of the court, its pillars, their sockets, and the screen for the gate of the court;
