11And the LORDH3068 spokeH1696 to MosesH4872, sayingH559, 12When thou takestH5375 the sumH7218 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 after their numberH6485, then shall they giveH5414 every manH376 a ransomH3724 for his soulH5315 to the LORDH3068, when thou numberestH6485 them; that there may be no plagueH5063 among them, when thou numberestH6485 them.7 13This they shall giveH5414, every one that passethH5674 amongH5921 them that are numberedH6485, halfH4276 a shekelH8255 after the shekelH8255 of the sanctuaryH6944: (a shekelH8255 is twentyH6242 gerahsH1626:) an halfH4276 shekelH8255 shall be the offeringH8641 of the LORDH3068. 14Every one that passethH5674 among them that are numberedH6485, from twentyH6242 yearsH8141 oldH1121 and aboveH4605, shall giveH5414 an offeringH8641 to the LORDH3068. 15The richH6223 shall not give moreH7235, and the poorH1800 shall not give lessH4591 than halfH4276 a shekelH8255, when they giveH5414 an offeringH8641 to the LORDH3068, to make an atonementH3722 for your soulsH5315.89 16And thou shalt takeH3947 the atonementH3725 moneyH3701 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and shalt appointH5414 it for the serviceH5656 of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150; that it may be a memorialH2146 to the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, to make an atonementH3722 for your soulsH5315.
17And the LORDH3068 spokeH1696 to MosesH4872, sayingH559, 18Thou shalt also makeH6213 a laverH3595 of brassH5178, and its footH3653 also of brassH5178, to washH7364 in : and thou shalt putH5414 it between the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150 and the altarH4196, and thou shalt putH5414 waterH4325 in it. 19For AaronH175 and their sonsH1121 shall washH7364 their handsH3027 and their feetH7272 from it: 20When they goH935 into the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, they shall washH7364 with waterH4325, that they dieH4191 not; or when they come nearH5066 to the altarH4196 to ministerH8334, to burn offeringH6999 made by fireH801 to the LORDH3068: 21So they shall washH7364 their handsH3027 and their feetH7272, that they dieH4191 not: and it shall be a statuteH2706 for everH5769 to them, even to him and to his seedH2233 throughout their generationsH1755.
22Moreover the LORDH3068 spokeH1696 to MosesH4872, sayingH559, 23TakeH3947 thou also to thee principalH7218 spicesH1314, of pureH1865 myrrhH4753 fiveH2568 hundredH3967 shekels, and of sweetH1314 cinnamonH7076 halfH4276 as muchH4276, even two hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572 shekels, and of sweetH1314 calamusH7070 two hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572 shekels, 24And of cassiaH6916 fiveH2568 hundredH3967 shekels, after the shekelH8255 of the sanctuaryH6944, and of olive oilH8081H2132 an hinH1969: 25And thou shalt makeH6213 it an oilH8081 of holyH6944 ointmentH4888, an ointmentH7545 compoundH4842 after the artH4639 of the perfumerH7543: it shall be an holyH6944 anointingH4888 oilH8081.10 26And thou shalt anointH4886 the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150 with it, and the arkH727 of the testimonyH5715, 27And the tableH7979 and all its vesselsH3627, and the lampstandH4501 and its vesselsH3627, and the altarH4196 of incenseH7004, 28And the altarH4196 of burnt offeringH5930 with all its vesselsH3627, and the laverH3595 and its footH3653. 29And thou shalt sanctifyH6942 them, that they may be mostH6944 holyH6944: whatever touchethH5060 them shall be holyH6942. 30And thou shalt anointH4886 AaronH175 and his sonsH1121, and consecrateH6942 them, that they may minister to me in the priest’s officeH3547. 31And thou shalt speakH1696 to the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, This shall be an holyH6944 anointingH4888 oilH8081 to me throughout your generationsH1755. 32Upon man’sH120 fleshH1320 shall it not be pouredH3251, neither shall ye makeH6213 any other like it, after the compositionH4971 of it: it is holyH6944, and it shall be holyH6944 to you. 33WhoeverH834H376 compoundethH7543 any like it, or whoever puttethH5414 any of it upon a strangerH2114, shall even be cutH3772 off from his peopleH5971. 34And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, TakeH3947 to thee sweet spicesH5561, stacteH5198, and onychaH7827, and galbanumH2464; these sweetH5561 spicesH5561 with pureH2134 frankincenseH3828: of eachH905 shall there be a likeH905 weight : 35And thou shalt makeH6213 it a perfumeH7004, a confectionH7545 after the artH4639 of the perfumerH7543, temperedH4414 together, pureH2889 and holyH6944:11 36And thou shalt beatH7833 some of it very smallH1854, and putH5414 of it beforeH6440 the testimonyH5715 in the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, where I will meetH3259 with thee: it shall be to you mostH6944 holyH6944. 37And as for the perfumeH7004 which thou shalt makeH6213, ye shall not makeH6213 to yourselves according to its compositionH4971: it shall be to thee holyH6944 for the LORDH3068. 38WhoeverH834H376 shall makeH6213 any like it, to smellH7306 it, shall even be cut offH3772 from his peopleH5971.
