1	“You shall make an altar to burn incense on. You shall make it of acacia wood.	“You shall make an altar on which to burn incense; you shall make it of acacia wood.	“Make an altar of acacia wood for burning incense.
2	Its length shall be a cubit, and its width a cubit. It shall be square, and its height shall be two cubits. Its horns shall be of one piece with it.	A cubit shall be its length, and a cubit its breadth. It shall be square, and two cubits shall be its height. Its horns shall be of one piece with it.

3	You shall overlay it with pure gold, its top, its sides around it, and its horns; and you shall make a gold molding around it.	You shall overlay it with pure gold, its top and around its sides and its horns. And you shall make a molding of gold around it.	Overlay the top and all the sides and the horns with pure gold, and make a gold molding around it.
4	You shall make two golden rings for it under its molding; on its two ribs, on its two sides you shall make them; and they shall be for places for poles with which to bear it.	And you shall make two golden rings for it. Under its molding on two opposite sides of it you shall make them, and they shall be holders for poles with which to carry it.	Make two gold rings for the altar below the molding—two on each of the opposite sides—to hold the poles used to carry it.
5	You shall make the poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold.	You shall make the poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold.	Make the poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold.
6	You shall put it before the veil that is by the ark of the covenant, before the mercy seat that is over the covenant, where I will meet with you.	And you shall put it in front of the veil that is above the ark of the testimony, in front of the mercy seat that is above the testimony, where I will meet with you.	Put the altar in front of the curtain that shields the ark of the covenant law—before the atonement cover that is over the tablets of the covenant law—where I will meet with you.
7	Aaron shall burn incense of sweet spices on it every morning. When he tends the lamps, he shall burn it.	And Aaron shall burn fragrant incense on it. Every morning when he dresses the lamps he shall burn it,	“Aaron must burn fragrant incense on the altar every morning when he tends the lamps.
8	When Aaron lights the lamps at evening, he shall burn it, a perpetual incense before Yahweh throughout your generations.	and when Aaron sets up the lamps at twilight, he shall burn it, a regular incense offering before the LORD throughout your generations.	He must burn incense again when he lights the lamps at twilight so incense will burn regularly before the LORD for the generations to come.
9	You shall offer no strange incense on it, nor burnt offering, nor meal offering; and you shall pour no drink offering on it.	You shall not offer unauthorized incense on it, or a burnt offering, or a grain offering, and you shall not pour a drink offering on it.	Do not offer on this altar any other incense or any burnt offering or grain offering, and do not pour a drink offering on it.
10	Aaron shall make atonement on its horns once in the year; with the blood of the sin offering of atonement once in the year he shall make atonement for it throughout your generations.

11	Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,	The LORD said to Moses,	Then the LORD said to Moses,
12	“When you take a census of the children of Israel, according to those who are counted among them, then each man shall give a ransom for his soul to Yahweh when you count them, that there be no plague among them when you count them.	“When you take the census of the people of Israel, then each shall give a ransom for his life to the LORD when you number them, that there be no plague among them when you number them.	“When you take a census of the Israelites to count them, each one must pay the LORD a ransom for his life at the time he is counted. Then no plague will come on them when you number them.
13	They shall give this, everyone who passes over to those who are counted, half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary (the shekel is twenty gerahs); half a shekel for an offering to Yahweh.	Each one who is numbered in the census shall give this: half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary (the shekel is twenty gerahs), half a shekel as an offering to the LORD.	Each one who crosses over to those already counted is to give a half shekel, according to the sanctuary shekel, which weighs twenty gerahs. This half shekel is an offering to the LORD.
14	Everyone who passes over to those who are counted, from twenty years old and upward, shall give the offering to Yahweh.	Everyone who is numbered in the census, from twenty years old and upward, shall give the LORD’s offering.	All who cross over, those twenty years old or more, are to give an offering to the LORD.
15	The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less, than the half shekel, when they give the offering of Yahweh, to make atonement for your souls.	The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less, than the half shekel, when you give the LORD’s offering to make atonement for your lives.	The rich are not to give more than a half shekel and the poor are not to give less when you make the offering to the LORD to atone for your lives.
16	You shall take the atonement money from the children of Israel, and shall appoint it for the service of the Tent of Meeting; that it may be a memorial for the children of Israel before Yahweh, to make atonement for your souls.”	You shall take the atonement money from the people of Israel and shall give it for the service of the tent of meeting, that it may bring the people of Israel to remembrance before the LORD, so as to make atonement for your lives.”	Receive the atonement money from the Israelites and use it for the service of the tent of meeting. It will be a memorial for the Israelites before the LORD, making atonement for your lives.”
17	Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,	The LORD said to Moses,	Then the LORD said to Moses,
18	“You shall also make a basin of bronze, and its base of bronze, in which to wash. You shall put it between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and you shall put water in it.	“You shall also make a basin of bronze, with its stand of bronze, for washing. You shall put it between the tent of meeting and the altar, and you shall put water in it,	“Make a bronze basin, with its bronze stand, for washing.

19	Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet in it.	with which Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet.	Aaron and his sons are to wash their hands and feet with water from it.
20	When they go into the Tent of Meeting, they shall wash with water, that they not die; or when they come near to the altar to minister, to burn an offering made by fire to Yahweh.	When they go into the tent of meeting, or when they come near the altar to minister, to burn a food offering to the LORD, they shall wash with water, so that they may not die.	Whenever they enter the tent of meeting, they shall wash with water so that they will not die. Also, when they approach the altar to minister by presenting a food offering to the LORD,
21	So they shall wash their hands and their feet, that they not die. This shall be a statute forever to them, even to him and to his descendants throughout their generations.”	They shall wash their hands and their feet, so that they may not die. It shall be a statute forever to them, even to him and to his offspring throughout their generations.”	they shall wash their hands and feet so that they will not die. This is to be a lasting ordinance for Aaron and his descendants for the generations to come.”

It will be the sacred anointing oil.
26	You shall use it to anoint the Tent of Meeting, the ark of the covenant,	With it you shall anoint the tent of meeting and the ark of the testimony,	Then use it to anoint the tent of meeting, the ark of the covenant law,

31	You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘This shall be a holy anointing oil to me throughout your generations.	And you shall say to the people of Israel, ‘This shall be my holy anointing oil throughout your generations.	Say to the Israelites, ‘This is to be my sacred anointing oil for the generations to come.
32	It shall not be poured on man’s flesh, and do not make any like it, according to its composition. It is holy. It shall be holy to you.	It shall not be poured on the body of an ordinary person, and you shall make no other like it in composition. It is holy, and it shall be holy to you.
