1 - `And thou hast made an altar <FI>for<Fi> making perfume; <FI>of<Fi> shittim wood thou dost make it;

2 - a cubit its length, and a cubit its breadth, (it is square), and two cubits its height; its horns <FI>are<Fi> of the same.

3 - `And thou hast overlaid it with pure gold, its top, and its sides round about, and its horns; and thou hast made to it a crown of gold round about;

4 - and two rings of gold thou dost make to it under its crown; on its two ribs thou dost make <FI>them<Fi> , on its two sides, and they have become places for staves, to bear it with them.

5 - `And thou hast made the staves of shittim wood, and hast overlaid them with gold;

6 - and thou hast put it before the vail, which <FI>is<Fi> by the ark of the testimony, before the mercy-seat which <FI>is<Fi> over the testimony, whither I am met with thee.

7 - `And Aaron hath made perfume on it, perfume of spices, morning by morning; in his making the lamps right he doth perfume it,

8 - and in Aaron's causing the lamps to go up between the evenings, he doth perfume it; a continual perfume before Jehovah to your generations.

9 - `Ye do not cause strange perfume to go up upon it, and burnt-offering, and present, and libation ye do not pour out on it;

10 - and Aaron hath made atonement on its horns, once in a year, by the blood of the sin-offering of atonements; once in a year doth he make atonement for it, to your generations; it <FI>is<Fi> most holy to Jehovah.'

11 - And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

12 - `When thou takest up the sum of the sons of Israel for their numbers, then they have given each an atonement <FI>for<Fi> his soul to Jehovah in their being numbered, and there is no plague among them in their being numbered.

13 - `This they do give, every one passing over unto those numbered, half a shekel, by the shekel of the sanctuary (the shekel <FI>is<Fi> twenty gerahs); half a shekel <FI>is<Fi> the heave-offering to Jehovah;

14 - every one passing over unto those numbered, from a son of twenty years and upwards, doth give the heave-offering of Jehovah;

15 - the rich doth not multiply, and the poor doth not diminish from the half-shekel, to give the heave-offering of Jehovah, to make atonement for your souls.

16 - `And thou hast taken the atonement-money from the sons of Israel, and hast given it for the service of the tent of meeting; and it hath been to the sons of Israel for a memorial before Jehovah, to make atonement for your souls.'

17 - And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

18 - `And thou hast made a laver of brass (and its base of brass), for washing; and thou hast put it between the tent of meeting and the altar, and hast put water there;

19 - and Aaron and his sons have washed at it their hands and their feet,

20 - in their going in unto the tent of meeting they wash <FI>with<Fi> water, and die not; or in their drawing nigh unto the altar to minister, to perfume a fire-offering to Jehovah,

21 - then they have washed their hands and their feet, and they die not, and it hath been to them a statute age-during, to him and to his seed to their generations.'

22 - And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

23 - `And thou, take to thyself principal spices, wild honey five hundred <FI>shekels<Fi> ; and spice-cinnamon, the half of that, two hundred and fifty; and spice-cane two hundred and fifty;

24 - and cassia five hundred, by the shekel of the sanctuary, and olive oil a hin;

25 - and thou hast made it a holy anointing oil, a compound mixture, work of a compounder; it is a holy anointing oil.

26 - `And thou hast anointed with it the tent of meeting, and the ark of the testimony,

27 - and the table and all its vessels, and the candlestick and its vessels, and the altar of perfume,

28 - and the altar of burnt-offering and all its vessels, and the laver and its base;

29 - and thou hast sanctified them, and they have been most holy; all that is coming against them is holy;

30 - and Aaron and his sons thou dost anoint, and hast sanctified them for being priests to Me.

31 - `And unto the sons of Israel thou dost speak, saying, A holy anointing oil is this to Me, to your generations;

32 - on flesh of man it is not poured, and with its proper proportion ye make none like it; it <FI>is<Fi> holy; it is holy to you;

33 - a man who compoundeth <FI>any<Fi> like it, or who putteth of it on a stranger--hath even been cut off from his people.'

34 - And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Take to thee spices, stacte, and onycha, and galbanum, spices and pure frankincense; they are part for part;

35 - and thou hast made it a perfume, a compound, work of a compounder, salted, pure, holy;

36 - and thou hast beaten <FI>some<Fi> of it small, and hast put of it before the testimony, in the tent of meeting, whither I am met with thee; most holy it is to you.

37 - `As to the perfume which thou makest, with its proper proportion ye do not make to yourselves, holy it is to thee to Jehovah;

38 - a man who maketh <FI>any<Fi> like it--to be refreshed by it--hath even been cut off from his people.'
