1 And you are to make an altar for the burning of perfume; of hard wood let it be made.
2 The altar is to be square, a cubit long and a cubit wide, and two cubits high, and its horns are to be made of the same.
3 It is to be plated with the best gold, the top of it and the sides and the horns, with an edging of gold all round it.
4 Under the edge on the two opposite sides, you are to make two gold rings, to take the rods for lifting it.
5 And make these rods of the same wood, plating them with gold.
6 And let it be placed in front of the veil before the ark of the law, before the cover which is over the law, where I will come face to face with you.
7 And on this altar sweet spices are to be burned by Aaron every morning when he sees to the lights.
8 And every evening, when he puts the lights up in their places, the spices are to be burned, a sweet-smelling smoke going up before the Lord from generation to generation for ever.
9 No strange perfume, no burned offering or meal offering, and no drink offering is to be offered on it.
10 And once every year Aaron is to make its horns clean: with the blood of the sin-offering he is to make it clean once every year from generation to generation: it is most holy to the Lord.
11 And the Lord said to Moses,
12 When you are taking the number of the children of Israel, let every man who is numbered give to the Lord a price for his life, so that no disease may come on them when they are numbered.
13 And this is what they are to give; let every man who is numbered give half a shekel, by the scale of the holy place: (the shekel being valued at twenty gerahs:) this money is an offering to the Lord.
14 Everyone who is numbered, from twenty years old and over, is to give an offering to the Lord.
15 The man of wealth is to give no more and the poor man no less than the half-shekel of silver, when the offering is made to the Lord as the price for your lives.
16 And you are to take this money from the children of Israel to be used for the work of the Tent of meeting, to keep the memory of the children of Israel before the Lord and to be the price of your lives.
17 And the Lord said to Moses,
18 You are to make a brass washing-vessel, with a brass base; and put it between the Tent of meeting and the altar, with water in it;
19 That it may be used by Aaron and his sons for washing their hands and feet;
20 Whenever they go into the Tent of meeting they are to be washed with water, to keep them from death; and whenever they come near to do the work of the altar, or to make an offering by fire to the Lord,
21 Their hands and feet are to be washed. so that they may be safe from death: this is an order to them for ever; to him and his seed from generation to generation.
22 And the Lord said to Moses,
23 Take the best spices, five hundred shekels' weight of liquid myrrh, and of sweet cinnamon half as much, that is, two hundred and fifty shekels, and two hundred and fifty shekels of sweet calamus,
24 And of cassia, five hundred shekels' weight measured by the scale of the holy place, and of olive oil a hin:
25 And make these into a holy oil, a perfume made by the art of the perfume-maker; it is to be a holy oil.
26 This oil is to be put on the Tent of meeting, and on the ark of the law,
27 And on the table and all its vessels, and on the support for the lights, with its vessels, and on the altar for burning spices,
28 And on the altar of burned offerings with its vessels, and on the washing-vessel and its base.
29 And you are to make them most holy; anything touching them will become holy.
30 And put the oil on Aaron and his sons, making them holy to do the work of priests to me.
31 And say to the children of Israel, This is to be the Lord's holy oil, from generation to generation.
32 It is not to be used for man's flesh, and no other is to be made like it: holy it is, and you are to keep it holy.
33 Whoever makes any like it, or puts it on one who is not a priest, will be cut off from his people.
34 And the Lord said to Moses, Take sweet spices, stacte and onycha and galbanum, with the best frankincense, in equal weights;
35 And make from them a perfume, such as is made by the art of the perfume-maker, mixed with salt, and clean and holy.
36 And put some of it, crushed very small, in front of the ark in the Tent of meeting, where I will come face to face with you; it is to be most holy.
37 You are not to make any perfume like it for yourselves: it is to be kept holy to the Lord.
38 Whoever makes any like it, for its sweet smell, will be cut off from his people.

11 耶和华对摩西说：
12 "你要照着以色列人被数点的数目登记人数； 你数点的时候， 他们各人要为自己的性命把赎价归给耶和华， 免得你数点的时候， 他们中间有灾病。
13 以下就是他们当缴纳的； 凡是属于那些被数点的人的， 每人要照着圣所的标准献银子六克； 这六克银子是归给耶和华的礼物。这重量是圣所用的标准重量（"这重量是圣所用的标准重量"原文作"一舍客勒是二十季拉"）。
14 凡是属于那些被数点的人， 自二十岁以上的， 要把礼物献给耶和华。
15 富有的人不可多出， 贫穷的也不可少出。各人要纳六克银子， 作礼物献给耶和华， 好为你们的性命作赎价。
16 你要从以色列人收取这赎银， 指定作会幕事奉的使用， 好使它在耶和华面前为以色列人作个记念， 也赎回你们的性命。"
17 耶和华对摩西说：
18 "你要做一个铜盆和一个铜座， 用来洗濯。你要把盆放在会幕和祭坛之间， 并且要把水放在盆中。
19 亚伦和他的儿子要在盆里洗手洗脚。
20 他们进会幕的时候， 或是走近祭坛敬拜， 给耶和华焚烧火祭的时候， 都要用水洗濯， 免得死亡。
21 他们要洗手洗脚， 免得死亡。这要作他们永远的定例， 就是作亚伦和他的后裔世世代代永远的定例。"

24 玉桂皮六公斤， 都要按着圣所的标准重量， 又橄榄油四公斤。
25 你要把这些材料制成圣膏油， 就是照着香膏配制师的方法配制成的香膏， 是要作为圣膏油的。
26 你要用这膏油抹会幕和法柜，
27 桌子和桌子的所有器具， 灯台和灯台的器具， 以及香坛，
28 燔祭坛和坛上的所有器具， 盆和盆座；
29 你要使它们成圣， 使它们成为至圣； 凡是触着它们的， 都要成圣。
30 你也要膏抹亚伦和他的儿子， 好使他们成圣， 作我的祭司。
31 你要告诉以色列人说： ‘你们世世代代要把这油归我为圣膏油。
32 不可倒在常人的身上， 也不可照着这配制的分量制相似的膏油； 这膏油是圣的， 你们也要以它为圣。
33 无论谁配制相似的膏油， 或把这膏油抹在外人的身上， 这人就一定要从他的族人中被剪除。’"
34 耶和华对摩西说： "你要取芬芳的香料， 就是苏合香、香锭、白松香； 这芬芳的香料和纯净的乳香， 各样都要分量相等。
35 你要照着香膏配制师的方法， 用这些加上盐调和制成香， 是清净圣洁的。
36 你要取一部分香， 把它研成碎末， 放在会幕里法柜前， 就是我要与你相会的地方。你们要以这香为至圣。
37 你所制的香， 你们不可按着它的分量为自己配制； 你要以这香为圣归给耶和华。
38 无论谁制香和这香相似， 为要闻香的味道的， 这人就一定要从他的族人中被剪除。"
