And the LORD spake unto Mo- | kels, after the shekel of the Sanctuary, ses, saying, and of oil olive a Hin.

12 When thou takest the sum of the children of Israel, after their number, then they shall give every man a ransom for his soul unto the LORD, when thou numberest them, that there be no plague amongst them, when thou numberest them.

13 This they shall give, every one that passeth among them that are numbered: half a shekel after the shekel of the Sanctuary: A shekel is twenty gerahs: a half shekel shall be the offering of the LORD.

14 Every one that passeth among them that are numbered from twenty years old and above, shall give an offering unto the LORD.

21 So they shall wash their hands and their feet, that they die not: and it shall be a statute for ever to them, even to him and to his seed throughout their generations.

23 Take thou also unto thee principal spices, of pure myrrh five hundred she, kels, and of sweet cinnamon half so much, even two hundred and fifty she

25 And thou shalt make it an oil of holy ointment, an ointment compound after the art of the Apothecary: it shall be a holy anointing oil.

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 thou shalt sanctify them, that they may be most holy whatsoever toucheth them, shall be holy. 30 And thou shalt anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that they may minister unto me in the Priest's office.

31 And thou shalt speak unto the chil dren of Israel, saying, This shall be a holy anointing oil unto me, throughout your generations.

32 Upon man's flesh shall it not be poured, neither shall ye make any other like it, after the composition of it: it is holy, and it shall be holy unto you.

33 Whosoever compoundeth any like it, or whosoever putteth any of it upon a stranger, shall even be cut off from his people. 31 And the LORD said unto Moses, Take unto thee sweet spices, stacte, and onycha, and galbanum: these sweet spices with pure frankincense, of each shall there be a like weight.
