Exodus 20:25

Context
NET ©

If you make me an altar of stone, you must not build it 1  of stones shaped with tools, 2  for if you use your tool on it you have defiled it. 3 

NIV ©

If you make an altar of stones for me, do not build it with dressed stones, for you will defile it if you use a tool on it.

NASB ©

‘If you make an altar of stone for Me, you shall not build it of cut stones, for if you wield your tool on it, you will profane it.

NLT ©

If you build altars from stone, use only uncut stones. Do not chip or shape the stones with a tool, for that would make them unfit for holy use.

MSG ©

If you use stones to make my Altar, don't use dressed stones. If you use a chisel on the stones you'll profane the Altar.

BBE ©

And if you make me an altar of stone do not make it of cut stones: for the touch of an instrument will make it unclean.

NRSV ©

But if you make for me an altar of stone, do not build it of hewn stones; for if you use a chisel upon it you profane it.

NKJV ©

‘And if you make Me an altar of stone, you shall not build it of hewn stone; for if you use your tool on it, you have profaned it.

NET © Notes

tn Heb “them” referring to the stones.

tn Heb “of hewn stones.” Gesenius classifies this as an adverbial accusative – “you shall not build them (the stones of the altar) as hewn stones.” The remoter accusative is in apposition to the nearer (GKC 372 §117.kk).

tn The verb is a preterite with vav (ו) consecutive. It forms the apodosis in a conditional clause: “if you lift up your tool on it…you have defiled it.”
