Exodus 30:13-24
13Everyone who is registered must pay half a shekel according to the sanctuary shekel (twenty gerahs to the shekel). This half shekel is a contribution to the Lord.
14Each man who is registered, twenty years old or more, must give this contribution to the Lord.
15The wealthy may not give more and the poor may not give less than half a shekel when giving the contribution to the Lord to atone for your lives.
16Take the atonement price from the Israelites and use it for the service of the tent of meeting. It will serve as a reminder for the Israelites before the Lord to atone for your lives.”
17The Lord spoke to Moses:
18“Make a bronze basin for washing and a bronze stand for it. Set it between the tent of meeting and the altar, and put water in it.
19Aaron and his sons must wash their hands and feet from the basin.
20Whenever they enter the tent of meeting or approach the altar to minister by burning a food offering to the Lord, they must wash with water so that they will not die.
21They must wash their hands and feet so that they will not die; this is to be a permanent statute for them, for Aaron and his descendants throughout their generations.”
22The Lord spoke to Moses:
23“Take for yourself the finest spices: 12½ pounds of liquid myrrh, half as much (6¼ pounds) of fragrant cinnamon, 6¼ pounds of fragrant cane,
2412½ pounds of cassia (by the sanctuary shekel), and a gallon of olive oil.
