New Living Translation (NLT)
Exodus 24
17 To the Israelites at the foot of the mountain, the glory of the LORD appeared at the summit like a consuming fire.
18 Then Moses disappeared into the cloud as he climbed higher up the mountain. He remained on the mountain forty days and forty nights.
Exodus 25
1 The LORD said to Moses,
2 “Tell the people of Israel to bring me their sacred offerings. Accept the contributions from all whose hearts are moved to offer them.
3 Here is a list of sacred offerings you may accept from them: gold, silver, and bronze;
4 blue, purple, and scarlet thread; fine linen and goat hair for cloth;
5 tanned ram skins and fine goatskin leather; acacia wood;
6 olive oil for the lamps; spices for the anointing oil and the fragrant incense;
7 onyx stones, and other gemstones to be set in the ephod and the priest’s chestpiece.
8 “Have the people of Israel build me a holy sanctuary so I can live among them.
9 You must build this Tabernacle and its furnishings exactly according to the pattern I will show you.
