| 1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1"You are to make an altar for burning incense. You are to make it of acacia wood. |
| 2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2It is to be a square, one cubit long and one cubit wide, and it is to be two cubits high, with its horns of one piece with it. |
| 3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3You are to overlay it with pure gold, its top, its sides all around, and its horns, and you are to make a molding of gold all around it. |
| 4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4"You are to make two gold rings for it under its molding. You are to make them on its two opposite sides, and they are to be holders for poles by which to carry it. |
| 5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5You are to make the poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold. |
| 6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6You are to put the altar in front of the curtain that is over the Ark of the Testimony, in front of the Mercy Seat that is over the Testimony where I'll meet with you. |
| 7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7Aaron is to offer fragrant incense on it. Every morning when he trims the lamps he is to offer it, |
| 8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8and when Aaron sets up the lamps at twilight, he is to offer it as a continual incense offering in the LORD's presence throughout your generations. |
| 9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9You are not to offer strange incense, a burnt offering, or a grain offering on it, nor are you to pour out a libation on it. |
| 10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10Each year Aaron is to make atonement on its horns with the blood of the sin offering of atonement. He is to make atonement on it each year throughout your generations. It is most holy to the LORD." |
| 11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11The LORD told Moses, |
| 12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12"When you take a census of the Israelis to register them, each is to give a ransom for himself to the LORD when they're registered so there won't be a plague among them when they're registered. |
| 13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13This is what everyone who is registered is to give: half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary (the shekel weighs 20 gerahs), half a shekel as a contribution to the LORD. |
| 14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14All who are registered, 20 years of age and older, are to give a contribution to the LORD. |
| 15[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 15The rich person is not to give more, nor is the poor person to give less than the half shekel, when you give a contribution to the LORD to make atonement for yourselves. |
| 16[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 16You are to take the atonement money from the Israelis and give it for the service of the Tent of Meeting, and it is to be a memorial for the Israelis in the LORD's presence to make atonement for yourselves." |
| 17[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 17The LORD told Moses, |
| 18[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 18"You are to make a bronze basin with a bronze base for washing. You are to pace it between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, put water in it, |
| 19[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 19and Aaron and his sons are to wash their hands and their feet from it. |
| 20[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 20When they enter the Tent of Meeting or when they approach the altar to minister to make an offering by fire to the LORD, they are to wash with water so they don't die. |
| 21[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 21They are to wash their hands and their feet so that they don't die, and it is to be for them a perpetual ordinance for Aaron and his seed from generation to generation." |
| 22[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 22The LORD told Moses, |
| 23[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 23"You are to take for yourself the finest spices: 500 shekels by weight of liquid myrrh, half as much fragrant cinnamon (250 shekels), 250 shekels of fragrant reeds, |
| 24[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 24500 shekels of cassia—all according to the shekel of the sanctuary—and a hin of olive oil. |
| 25[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 25You are to make them into a holy anointing oil, a perfume mixture made by a perfumer. It is to be a holy anointing oil. |
| 26[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 26You are to use it to anoint the Tent of Meeting, the Ark of the Testimony, |
| 27[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 27the table and all its utensils, the lamp stand and its utensils, the altar of incense, |
| 28[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 28the altar for burnt offerings and all its utensils, and the basin and its base. |
| 29[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 29You are to consecrate them and they are to be most holy. Whatever touches them is to be holy. |
| 30[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 30You are to anoint Aaron and his sons, and you are to consecrate them to serve as my priests. |
| 31[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 31You are to address the Israelis and tell them, 'This is to be holy anointing oil for me from generation to generation. |
| 32[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 32It is not to be poured out on a person's body, nor are you to make anything like it with similar formulations. It is holy, and it is to be holy to you. |
| 33[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 33Anyone who mixes anything like it or who puts any of it on an unqualified person is to be cut off from his people.'" |
| 34[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 34The LORD told Moses, "Take for yourself spices: stacte, onycha, galbanum, and spices with pure frankincense, all in equal amounts. |
| 35[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 35You are to make it into a fragrant incense, expertly blended, pure, and holy. |
| 36[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 36You are to grind some of it fine, and put some before the Testimony in the Tent of Meeting where I will meet with you. It is to be most holy to you. |
| 37[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 37You are not to make the incense that you make in this formulation for your own use. It is to be holy to the LORD for you. |
| 38[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 38Anyone who makes anything like it to use it as perfume is to be cut off from his people." |
