1 And you will make an altar to burn incense upon: [of] shittim wood will you make it.
2 A cubit [will be] the length of it, and a cubit the breadth of it; foursquare will it be: and two cubits [will be] the height of it: the horns of it [will be] of the same.
3 And you will overlay it with pure gold, the top of it, and the sides of it round about, and the horns of it; and you will make to it a crown of gold round about.
4 And two golden rings will you make to it under the crown of it, by the two corners of it, upon the two sides of it will you make [it]; and they will be for places for the staves to bear it withal.
5 And you will make the staves [of] shittim wood, and overlay them with gold.
6 And you will put it before the veil that [is] by the ark of the testimony, before the mercy seat that [is] over the testimony, where I will meet with you.
7 And Aaron will burn on it sweet incense every morning: when he dresses the lamps, he will burn incense upon it.
8 And when Aaron lights the lamps at even, he will burn incense upon it, a perpetual incense before the LORD [Yahweh] throughout your generations.
9 You will offer no strange incense on it, nor burnt sacrifice, nor meat offering; neither will you pour drink offering on it.
10 And Aaron will make an atonement upon the horns of it once in a year with the blood of the sin offering of atonements: once in the year will he make atonement upon it throughout your generations: it [is] most holy to the LORD [Yahweh].
11 And the LORD [Yahweh] spoke to Moses, saying,
12 When you take the sum of the children of Israel after their number, then will they give every man a ransom for his soul to the LORD [Yahweh], when you number them; that there be no plague among them, when [you] number them.
13 This they will give, every one that passes among them that are numbered, half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary: (a shekel [is] twenty gerahs:) a half shekel [will be] the offering of the LORD [Yahweh].
14 Every one that passes among them that are numbered, from twenty years old and above, will give an offering to the LORD [Yahweh].
15 The rich will not give more, and the poor will not give less than half a shekel, when [they] give an offering to the LORD [Yahweh], to make an atonement for your souls.
16 And you will take the atonement money of the children of Israel, and will appoint it for the service of the tabernacle of the congregation; that it may be a memorial to the children of Israel before the LORD [Yahweh], to make an atonement for your souls.
17 And the LORD [Yahweh] spoke to Moses, saying,
18 You will also make a laver [of] brass, and his foot [also of] brass, to wash [withal]: and you will put it between the tabernacle of the congregation and the altar, and you will put water therein.
19 For Aaron and his sons will wash their hands and their feet thereat:
20 When they go into the tabernacle of the congregation, they will wash with water, that they die not; or when they come near to the altar to minister, to burn offering made by fire to the LORD [Yahweh]:
21 So they will wash their hands and their feet, that they die not: and it will be a statute for ever to them, [even] to him and to his seed throughout their generations.
22 Moreover the LORD [Yahweh] spoke to Moses, saying,
23 Take you also to you principal spices, of pure myrrh five hundred [shekels], and of sweet cinnamon half so much, [even] two hundred and fifty [shekels], and of sweet calamus two hundred and fifty [shekels],
24 And of cassia five hundred [shekels], after the shekel of the sanctuary, and of oil olive a hin:
25 And you will make it an oil of holy ointment, an ointment compound after the are of the apothecary: it will be a holy anointing oil.
26 And you will anoint the tabernacle of the congregation with it, and the ark of the testimony,
27 And the table and all his vessels, and the candlestick and his vessels, and the altar of incense,
28 And the altar of burnt offering with all his vessels, and the laver and his foot.
29 And you will sanctify them, that they may be most holy: whatever touches them will be holy.
30 And you will anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that [they] may minister to me in the priest's office.
31 And you will speak to the children of Israel, saying, This will be a holy anointing oil to me throughout your generations.
32 Upon man's flesh will it not be poured, neither will you make [any other] like it, after the composition of it: it [is] holy, [and] it will be holy to you.
33 Whosoever compounds [any] like it, or whoever puts [any] of it upon a stranger, will even be cut off from his people.
34 And the LORD [Yahweh] said to Moses, Take to you sweet spices, stacte, and onycha, and galbanum; [these] sweet spices with pure frankincense: of each will there be a like [weight]:
35 And you will make it a perfume, a confection after the art of the apothecary, tempered together, pure [and] holy:
36 And you will beat [some] of it very small, and put of it before the testimony in the tabernacle of the congregation, where I will meet with you: it will be to you most holy.
37 And [as for] the perfume which you will make, you will not make to yourselves according to the composition of it: it will be to you holy for the LORD [Yahweh].
38 Whosoever will make like to that, to smell to it, will even be cut off from his people.
