Éxodo 30

Lexham English Bible

1“And you will make an altar for burning incense; you will make it of acacia wood,

2a cubit its length and a cubit its width—it will be square—and two cubits its height, its horns ⌞of one piece with it⌟.

3And you will overlay it with pure gold, its top and its sides all around and its horns, and you will make for it a gold molding all around.

4And you will make two gold rings for it; under its molding ⌞on two opposite sides⌟ you will make them as ⌞holders⌟ for poles to carry it with them.

5You will make the poles of acacia wood, and you will overlay them with gold.

6And you will put it before the curtain that is upon the ark of the testimony, before the atonement cover, which is on the testimony, there where I will meet with you.

7“And on it Aaron will turn fragrant incense into smoke; ⌞each morning⌟ when he tends the lamps, he will turn it into smoke.

8And when Aaron sets up the lamps ⌞at twilight⌟, he will turn it into smoke—incense of continuity—before Yahweh throughout your generations.

9You will not offer on it strange incense or a burnt offering or a grain offering, and you will not pour a libation on it.

10And Aaron will make atonement on its horns one time in the year from the blood of the sin offering of the atonement; one time in the year he will make atonement on it throughout your generations; it is a most holy thing for Yahweh.”

11And Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

12“⌞When you take a census of⌟ the ⌞Israelites⌟ to count them, they will each give the ransom of his life for Yahweh when counting them, and a plague will not be among them when counting them.

13This they will give, ⌞everyone who is counted⌟, the half shekel, according to the sanctuary shekel, which is twenty gerahs per shekel. The half shekel is a contribution for Yahweh.

14⌞Everyone who is counted⌟ from ⌞twenty years old⌟ and above will give the contribution of Yahweh.

15The rich will not give more, and the poor will not give less than the half shekel to give the contribution of Yahweh to make atonement for their lives.

16And you will take the atonement money from the ⌞Israelites⌟ and give it to the service of the tent of assembly, and it will be as a memorial for the ⌞Israelites⌟ before Yahweh to make atonement for your lives.”

17And Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

18“And you will make a basin of bronze and its bronze stand for washing, and you will put it between the tent of assembly and the altar, and you will put water there.

19And Aaron and his sons will wash their hands and their feet with it.

20When they come to the tent of assembly, they will wash with water so that they do not die, or when they approach the altar to serve by turning to smoke an offering made by fire to Yahweh.

21And they will wash their hands and their feet so that they do not die, and it will be a lasting rule for them—to him and to his offspring throughout their generations.

22And Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

23“And take for yourself top quality balsam oils, five hundred shekels of flowing myrrh, half as much—two hundred and fifty shekels of fragrant cinnamon, and two hundred and fifty shekels of fragrant reed,

24and five hundred shekels of cassia, according to the sanctuary shekel, and a hin of olive oil.

25And you will make it into holy anointing oil, a spice blend of a fragrant ointment the work of a perfumer; it will be holy anointing oil.

26And you will anoint with it the tent of assembly and the ark of the testimony,

27and the table and all its equipment and the lampstand and its equipment and the incense altar,

28and the altar of burnt offering and all its equipment and the basin and its stand.

29And you will consecrate them, and they will be most holy things; ⌞anyone who⌟ touches them will be holy.

30And you will anoint Aaron and his sons, and you will consecrate them to serve as priests for me.

31“And you will speak to the ⌞Israelites⌟, saying, ‘This will be my holy anointing oil throughout your generations.

32It will not be poured on human flesh, and with its measurements you will not make any like it; it is holy; it will be holy to you.

33Anyone who compounds perfume like it and who puts it on a stranger will be cut off from his people.’ ”

34And Yahweh said to Moses, “Take for yourself fragrant perfumes—stacte resin and onycha and galbanum—fragrant perfumes and pure frankincense, ⌞an equal part of each⌟,

35and make it into a compound of incense, the work of a perfumer, salted, pure, holy.

36And you will grind part of it to powder, and you will put part of it before the testimony in the tent of assembly where I will meet with you; it will be a most holy thing to you.

37And the incense that you will make with its measurements you will not make for yourselves; it will be holy to you for Yahweh.

38Anyone who makes any like it to smell it will be cut off from his people.”

Reina-Valera 1909

1HARÁS asimismo un altar de sahumerio de perfume: de madera de Sittim lo harás.

2Su longitud será de un codo, y su anchura de un codo: será cuadrado: y su altura de dos codos: y sus cuernos serán de lo mismo.

3Y cubrirlo has de oro puro, su techado, y sus paredes en derredor, y sus cuernos: y le harás en derredor una corona de oro.

4Le harás también dos anillos de oro debajo de su corona á sus dos esquinas en ambos lados suyos, para meter los varales con que será llevado.

5Y harás los varales de madera de Sittim, y los cubrirás de oro.

6Y lo pondrás delante del velo que está junto al arca del testimonio, delante de la cubierta que está sobre el testimonio, donde yo te testificaré de mí.

7Y quemará sobre él Aarón sahumerio de aroma cada mañana: cuando aderezare las lámparas lo quemará.

8Y cuando Aarón encenderá las lámparas al anochecer, quemará el sahumerio: rito perpetuo delante de Jehová por vuestras edades.

9No ofreceréis sobre él sahumerio extraño, ni holocausto, ni presente; ni tampoco derramaréis sobre él libación.

10Y sobre sus cuernos hará Aarón expiación una vez en el año con la sangre de la expiación para las reconciliaciones: una vez en el año hará expiación sobre él en vuestras edades: será muy santo á Jehová.

11Y habló Jehová á Moisés, diciendo:

12Cuando tomares el número de los hijos de Israel conforme á la cuenta de ellos, cada uno dará á Jehová el rescate de su persona, cuando los contares, y no habrá en ellos mortandad por haberlos contado.

13Esto dará cualquiera que pasare por la cuenta, medio siclo conforme al siclo del santuario. El siclo es de veinte óbolos: la mitad de un siclo será la ofrenda á Jehová.

14Cualquiera que pasare por la cuenta, de veinte años arriba, dará la ofrenda á Jehová.

15Ni el rico aumentará, ni el pobre disminuirá de medio siclo, cuando dieren la ofrenda á Jehová para hacer expiación por vuestras personas.

16Y tomarás de los hijos de Israel el dinero de las expiaciones, y lo darás para la obra del tabernáculo del testimonio: y será por memoria á los hijos de Israel delante de Jehová, para expiar vuestras personas.

17Habló más Jehová á Moisés, diciendo:

18Harás también una fuente de metal, con su basa de metal, para lavar; y la has de poner entre el tabernáculo del testimonio y el altar; y pondrás en ella agua.

19Y de ella se lavarán Aarón y sus hijos sus manos y sus pies:

20Cuando entraren en el tabernáculo del testimonio, se han de lavar con agua, y no morirán: y cuando se llegaren al altar para ministrar, para encender á Jehová la ofrenda que se ha de consumir al fuego,

21También se lavarán las manos y los pies, y no morirán. Y lo tendrán por estatuto perpetuo él y su simiente por sus generaciones.

22Habló más Jehová á Moisés, diciendo:

23Y tú has de tomar de las principales drogas; de mirra excelente quinientos siclos, y de canela aromática la mitad, esto es, doscientos y cincuenta, y de cálamo aromático doscientos y cincuenta,

24Y de casia quinientos, al peso del santuario, y de aceite de olivas un hin:

25Y harás de ello el aceite de la santa unción, superior ungüento, obra de perfumador, el cual será el aceite de la unción sagrada.

26Con él ungirás el tabernáculo del testimonio, y el arca del testimonio,

27Y la mesa, y todos sus vasos, y el candelero, y todos sus vasos, y el altar del perfume,

28Y el altar del holocausto, todos sus vasos, y la fuente y su basa.

29Así los consagrarás, y serán cosas santísimas: todo lo que tocare en ellos, será santificado.

30Ungirás también á Aarón y á sus hijos, y los consagrarás para que sean mis sacerdotes.

31Y hablarás á los hijos de Israel, diciendo: Este será mi aceite de la santa unción por vuestras edades.

32Sobre carne de hombre no será untado, ni haréis otro semejante, conforme á su composición: santo es; por santo habéis de tenerlo vosotros.

33Cualquiera que compusiere ungüento semejante, y que pusiere de él sobre extraño, será cortado de sus pueblos.

34Dijo aún Jehová á Moisés: Tómate aromas, estacte y uña olorosa y gálbano aromático é incienso limpio; de todo en igual peso:

35Y harás de ello una confección aromática de obra de perfumador, bien mezclada, pura y santa:

36Y molerás alguna de ella pulverizándola, y la pondrás delante del testimonio en el tabernáculo del testimonio, donde yo te testificaré de mí. Os será cosa santísima.

37Como la confección que harás, no os haréis otra según su composición: te será cosa sagrada para Jehová.

38Cualquiera que hiciere otra como ella para olerla, será cortado de sus pueblos.

King James Version

1And thou shalt make an altar to burn incense upon: of shittim wood shalt thou make it.

2A cubit shall be the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof; foursquare shall it be: and two cubits shall be the height thereof: the horns thereof shall be of the same.

3And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, the top thereof, and the sides thereof round about, and the horns thereof; and thou shalt make unto it a crown of gold round about.

4And two golden rings shalt thou make to it under the crown of it, by the two corners thereof, upon the two sides of it shalt thou make it; and they shall be for places for the staves to bear it withal.

5And thou shalt make the staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold.

6And thou shalt put it before the vail that is by the ark of the testimony, before the mercy seat that is over the testimony, where I will meet with thee.

7And Aaron shall burn thereon sweet incense every morning: when he dresseth the lamps, he shall burn incense upon it.

8And when Aaron lighteth the lamps at even, he shall burn incense upon it, a perpetual incense before the LORD throughout your generations.

9Ye shall offer no strange incense thereon, nor burnt sacrifice, nor meat offering; neither shall ye pour drink offering thereon.

10And Aaron shall 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 shall he make atonement upon it throughout your generations: it is most holy unto the LORD.

11And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

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

13This 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:) an half shekel shall be the offering of the LORD.

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

15The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less than half a shekel, when they give an offering unto the LORD, to make an atonement for your souls.

16And thou shalt take the atonement money of the children of Israel, and shalt appoint it for the service of the tabernacle of the congregation; that it may be a memorial unto the children of Israel before the LORD, to make an atonement for your souls.

17And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

18Thou shalt also make a laver of brass, and his foot also of brass, to wash withal: and thou shalt put it between the tabernacle of the congregation and the altar, and thou shalt put water therein.

19For Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet thereat:

20When they go into the tabernacle of the congregation, they shall wash with water, that they die not; or when they come near to the altar to minister, to burn offering made by fire unto the LORD:

21So 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.

22Moreover the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

23Take thou also unto thee 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,

24And of cassia five hundred shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, and of oil olive an hin:

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

26And thou shalt anoint the tabernacle of the congregation therewith, and the ark of the testimony,

27And the table and all his vessels, and the candlestick and his vessels, and the altar of incense,

28And the altar of burnt offering with all his vessels, and the laver and his foot.

29And thou shalt sanctify them, that they may be most holy: whatsoever toucheth them shall be holy.

30And thou shalt anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that they may minister unto me in the priest’s office.

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

32Upon 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.

33Whosoever compoundeth any like it, or whosoever putteth any of it upon a stranger, shall even be cut off from his people.

34And 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:

35And thou shalt make it a perfume, a confection after the art of the apothecary, tempered together, pure and holy:

36And thou shalt beat some of it very small, and put of it before the testimony in the tabernacle of the congregation, where I will meet with thee: it shall be unto you most holy.

37And as for the perfume which thou shalt make, ye shall not make to yourselves according to the composition thereof: it shall be unto thee holy for the LORD.

38Whosoever shall make like unto that, to smell thereto, shall even be cut off from his people.

3You shall overlay it with pure gold, its top, its sides around it, and its horns; and you shall make a gold molding around it.

4You shall make two golden rings for it under its molding; on its two ribs, on its two sides you shall make them; and they shall be for places for poles with which to bear it.

11The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

12“When you take a census of the children of Israel, according to those who are counted among them, then each man shall give a ransom for his soul to the LORD when you count them, that there be no plague among them when you count them.

13They shall give this, everyone who passes over to those who are counted, half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary (the shekel is twenty gerahs); half a shekel for an offering to the LORD.

14Everyone who passes over to those who are counted, from twenty years old and upward, shall give the offering to the LORD.

15The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less, than the half shekel, when they give the offering of the LORD, to make atonement for your souls.

16You shall take the atonement money from the children of Israel, and shall appoint it for the service of the Tent of Meeting; that it may be a memorial for the children of Israel before the LORD, to make atonement for your souls.”

17The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

18“You shall also make a basin of bronze, and its base of bronze, in which to wash. You shall put it between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and you shall put water in it.

19Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet in it.

20When they go into the Tent of Meeting, they shall wash with water, that they don’t die; or when they come near to the altar to minister, to burn an offering made by fire to the LORD.

21So they shall wash their hands and their feet, that they not die. This shall be a statute forever to them, even to him and to his descendants throughout their generations.”

22Moreover the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

23“Also take fine spices: of liquid myrrh, five hundred shekels; and of fragrant cinnamon half as much, even two hundred and fifty; and of fragrant cane, two hundred and fifty;

24and of cassia five hundred, according to the shekel of the sanctuary; and a hin of olive oil.

25You shall make it into a holy anointing oil, a perfume compounded after the art of the perfumer: it shall be a holy anointing oil.

26You shall use it to anoint the Tent of Meeting, the ark of the covenant,

27the table and all its articles, the lamp stand and its accessories, the altar of incense,

28the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the basin with its base.

29You shall sanctify them, that they may be most holy. Whatever touches them shall be holy.

30You shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and sanctify them, that they may minister to me in the priest’s office.

31You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘This shall be a holy anointing oil to me throughout your generations.

32It shall not be poured on man’s flesh, and do not make any like it, according to its composition. It is holy. It shall be holy to you.

33Whoever compounds any like it, or whoever puts any of it on a stranger, he shall be cut off from his people.’”

34The LORD said to Moses, “Take to yourself sweet spices, gum resin, onycha, and galbanum: sweet spices with pure frankincense. There shall be an equal weight of each.

35You shall make incense of it, a perfume after the art of the perfumer, seasoned with salt, pure and holy.

36You shall beat some of it very small, and put some of it before the covenant in the Tent of Meeting, where I will meet with you. It shall be to you most holy.

37You shall not make this incense, according to its composition, for yourselves: it shall be to you holy for the LORD.

38Whoever shall make any like that, to smell of it, he shall be cut off from his people.”
