And when Jesus finished all these words, He said to His disciples,

You know that after two days the  ¹Passover takes place, and the Son of Man is being delivered up to be crucified.

Then the chief priests and the elders of the people were gathered together in the courtyard of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,

And they took counsel together to seize Jesus by craftiness and kill Him.

But they said,  ¹Not at the feast, lest there be an uproar among the people.

Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the  ¹leper,

A woman came to Him, having an alabaster flask of ointment of great value, and she poured it on His head as He reclined at table.

But when the disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying, Why this  ¹waste?

For this could have been sold for much and given to the poor.

But Jesus, knowing it, said to them, Why do you trouble the woman? She has done a noble deed to Me.

For the poor you have with you always,  ¹but you do not always have Me.

For in pouring out this ointment on My body, she has done it  ¹for My burial.

Truly I say to you, Wherever  ¹this gospel is proclaimed in the whole world,  ²what this woman has done shall also be told as a memorial of her.

 ¹At that time one of the twelve, the one called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests

And said, What are you willing to give me, and I will deliver Him to you? And they weighed out to him  ¹thirty pieces of silver.

And from then on he sought opportunity to deliver Him up.

Now on the first day of the  ¹Feast of Unleavened Bread, the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the passover?

And He said, Go into the city to a certain man and say to him, The Teacher says, My time is near. I am keeping the passover at your house with My disciples.

And the disciples did as Jesus directed them, and they prepared the passover.

And when evening fell, He reclined at table with the twelve.

And as they were eating, He said, Truly I say to you that one of you will betray Me.

And being greatly grieved, each one of them began to say to Him, I am not the one, am I, Lord?

And He answered and said, The one who dips his hand with Me in the dish, this one will betray Me.

The Son of Man is going away, even as it is written concerning Him, but woe to that man through whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had not been born.

And Judas, who was betraying Him, answered and said, I am not the one, am I, Rabbi? He said to him,  ¹You have said it yourself.

And as they were  ¹eating, Jesus took bread and blessed it, and He broke it and gave it to the disciples and said, Take, eat; this is My  ²body.

And He took a  ¹cup and gave thanks, and He gave it to them, saying, Drink of it, all of you,

For this is My  ¹blood of the  ²covenant, which is being poured out for many for forgiveness of sins.

But I say to you, I shall by no means drink of this  ¹product of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in the  ²kingdom of My Father.

And after  ¹singing a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

And he made the  ¹court. On the south side southward the hangings of the court were of fine twined linen, one hundred cubits;

Their twenty pillars and their twenty sockets were of bronze; the hooks of the pillars and their connecting rods were of silver.

And on the north side, one hundred cubits; their twenty pillars and their twenty sockets were of bronze; the hooks of the pillars and their connecting rods were of silver.

And on the west side there were hangings of fifty cubits, with their ten pillars and their ten sockets; the hooks of the pillars and their connecting rods were of silver.

And the width of the east side eastward was fifty cubits.

The hangings for the one side of the gate were fifteen cubits, with their three pillars and their three sockets;

And so for the other side; on both sides of the gate of the court were hangings of fifteen cubits, with their three pillars and their three sockets.

All the hangings around the court were of fine twined linen.

And the sockets for the pillars were of bronze; the hooks of the pillars and their connecting rods were of silver; and the overlaying of their capitals was of silver; and all the pillars of the court were connected with silver.

And the screen for the gate of the court was the work of an embroiderer, of blue and purple and scarlet strands and fine twined linen; and twenty cubits was the length, and the height in the width was five cubits, corresponding to the hangings of the court.

And their four pillars and their four sockets were of bronze; their hooks were of silver, and the overlaying of their capitals and their connecting rods were of silver.

And all the pegs of the tabernacle and of the court all around were of bronze.

This is the sum of the things for the tabernacle, the Tabernacle of the Testimony, as they were  ¹counted according to the commandment of Moses for the service of the Levites by the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.

And Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made all that Jehovah commanded Moses.

And with him was Oholiab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, an engraver and a skillful workman and an embroiderer in blue and in purple and in scarlet strands and in fine linen.

All the gold that was used for the work, in all the work of the sanctuary, even the gold of the wave offering, was twenty-nine talents and seven hundred thirty shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary.

And the silver of those who were numbered of the assembly was one hundred talents and one thousand seven hundred seventy-five shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary;

A beka a head, that is, half a shekel, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, for each one who was enrolled among their numbering, from twenty years old and upward, for six hundred three thousand, five hundred fifty men.

And the hundred talents of silver were for casting the sockets of the sanctuary and the sockets of the veil; one hundred sockets for the hundred talents, a talent for a socket.

And of the one thousand seven hundred seventy-five shekels he made hooks for the pillars and overlaid their capitals and made connecting rods for them.

And the bronze of the wave offering was seventy talents, and two thousand four hundred shekels.

And with it he made the sockets for the entrance of the Tent of Meeting and the bronze altar and the bronze grating for it and all the utensils of the altar

And the sockets around the court and the sockets of the gate of the court and all the pegs of the tabernacle and all the pegs around the court.

And from the blue and the purple and the scarlet strands, they made finely worked  ¹garments for ministering in the sanctuary, and made the holy garments for Aaron, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

And  ¹Bezalel made the ephod of gold, of blue and purple and scarlet strands and fine twined linen.

And they beat the gold into thin sheets and cut them into threads, to work into the blue and into the purple and into the scarlet strands and into the fine linen, the work of a skillful workman.

They made shoulder pieces for it, joined to it; at the two edges it was joined.

And the skillfully woven band, which was on it  ¹for its fastening, was of one piece with it and like it in workmanship, of gold, of blue and purple and scarlet strands and fine twined linen, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

And they made the onyx stones enclosed in  ¹settings of gold, engraved with the engravings of a signet according to the names of the sons of Israel.

And he put them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod as stones of remembrance for the sons of Israel as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

And he made the breastplate, the work of a skillful workman, like the work of the ephod, of gold, of blue and purple and scarlet strands and of fine twined linen.

It was square; they made the breastplate doubled; a span in its length and a span in its width when doubled.

And they filled it with four rows of stones. The first row was a row of a sardius, a topaz, and an emerald;

And the second row, a  ¹carbuncle, a sapphire, and a diamond;

And the third row, a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;

And the fourth row, a  ¹chrysolite, an onyx, and a jasper. They were enclosed in settings of gold in their enclosures.

And the stones were according to the names of the sons of Israel, twelve, according to their names, like the engravings of a signet, each according to his name, for the twelve tribes.

And they made on the breastplate twisted chains, a corded work of pure gold.

And they made two settings of gold and two rings of gold, and put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.

And they put the two cords of gold in the two rings at the ends of the breastplate.

And the two other ends of the two cords they put on the two settings and put them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod at the front of it.

And they made two rings of gold and put them on the two ends of the breastplate on its edge, which was toward the ephod on the inside.

And they made two rings of gold and put them on the bottom of the two shoulder pieces of the ephod on the front of it, close to the place where it is joined, above the skillfully woven band of the ephod.

And they bound the breastplate by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a cord of blue strands, that it might be upon the skillfully woven band of the ephod and that the breastplate might not come loose from the ephod, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

And he made the robe of the ephod of woven work, all of blue strands,

And the opening of the robe in its center like the opening of a coat of mail, with a binding edge around its opening so that it would not be torn.

And they made on the hem of the robe pomegranates of blue and purple and scarlet strands, twined.

And they made bells of pure gold and put the bells between the pomegranates on the hem of the robe all around, between the pomegranates;

A bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a pomegranate, on the hem of the robe all around, to minister in; as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

And they made the tunics of fine linen of woven work for Aaron and for his sons,

And the turban of fine linen, and the headdresses of high hats of fine linen, and the linen trousers of fine twined linen,

And the girding sash of fine twined linen and blue and purple and scarlet strands, the work of an embroiderer, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

And they made the plate of the holy crown of pure gold and wrote an inscription upon it, like the engravings of a signet: HOLINESS TO JEHOVAH.

And they tied to it a cord of blue strands to fasten it on the turban above, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

Thus all the work of the tabernacle of the Tent of Meeting was finished, and the children of Israel did according to all that Jehovah had commanded Moses; so they did.

And they brought the tabernacle to Moses, the tent and all its furnishings, its clasps, its boards, its bars, and its pillars and its sockets;

And the covering of rams' skins dyed red and the covering of porpoise skins, and the veil of the screen;

The Ark of the Testimony and its poles and the expiation cover;

The table, all its utensils, and the bread of the Presence;

The pure lampstand, its lamps, even the lamps set in order, and all its utensils, and the oil for the light;

And the golden altar and the anointing oil and the fragrant incense and the screen for the entrance of the tent;

The bronze altar, and its grating of bronze, its poles, and all its utensils; the laver and its base;

The hangings of the court, its pillars, and its sockets; and the screen for the gate of the court, its cords, and its pegs; and all the utensils for the service of the tabernacle, for the Tent of Meeting;

The finely worked garments for ministering in the sanctuary, the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments of his sons for them to serve as priests.

According to all that Jehovah had commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did all the work.

And Moses saw all the work; and there it was — they had done it; just as Jehovah had commanded, so they had done. And Moses blessed them.
