Exodus 30:12-14

12“When you take 1a 2census of the sons of Israel 3to number them, then each one of them shall give 4a ransom for 5himself to the Lord, when you 6number them, so that there will be no plague among them when you 7number them.

13This is what everyone who 8is numbered shall give: half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary (9the shekel is twenty gerahs), half a shekel as a 10contribution to the Lord.

14Everyone who 11is numbered, from twenty years old and over, shall give the 12contribution to the Lord.
