Exodus 30:15-27
English Standard Version
Chapter 30
15The 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. 16You 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."
17The Lord said to Moses,
18"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,
19with which Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet.
20When 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.
21They 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."
22The Lord said to Moses,
23"Take the finest spices: of liquid myrrh 500 shekels, and of sweet-smelling cinnamon half as much, that is, 250, and 250 of aromatic cane,
24and 500 of cassia, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, and a hin of olive oil.
25And you shall make of these a sacred anointing oil blended as by the perfumer; it shall be a holy anointing oil.
26With it you shall anoint the tent of meeting and the ark of the testimony,
27and the table and all its utensils, and the lampstand and its utensils, and the altar of incense,
