1 The Altar of incense. 11 The ransome of soules. 17 The brasen lauer. 22 The holy anoynting oyle. 34 The composition of the perfume.

¹Andthou shalt make an Altar to burne incense vpon: of Shittim wood shalt thou make it.

²A cubite shall bee the length thereof, and a cubite the breadth thereof, (foure square shall it bee) and two cubits shalbe the height thereof: the hornes thereof shalbe of the same.

³And thou shalt ouerlay it with pure gold, the top therof, and the sides thereof round about, and the hornes thereof: and thou shalt make vnto it a crowne of gold round about.³

⁴And two golden rings shalt thou make to it vnder the crowne of it, by the two corners thereof, vpon the two sides of it shalt thou make it: and they shalbe for places for the staues to beare it withall.⁴

⁵And thou shalt make the staues of Shittim wood, and ouerlay them with gold.

⁶And thou shalt put it before the Uaile, that is by the Arke of the Testimonie before the Mercie-seat, that is, ouer the Testimonie where I will meet with thee.

⁷And Aaron shall burne thereon sweet incense euery morning: when he dresseth the lamps he shal burne incense vpon it.⁷

⁸And when Aaron lighteth the lampes at euen, he shall burne incense vpon it, a perpetuall incense before the Lord,throughout your generations.⁸

⁹Ye shall offer no strange incense thereon, nor burnt sacrifice, nor meate offering, neither shall ye powre drinke offering thereon.

¹⁰And Aaron shall make an atonement vpon the hornes of it once in a yeere, with the blood of the sinne offering of atonements: once in the yeere shall hee make atonement vpon it, throughout your generations: it is most holy vnto the Lord.

¹¹¶ And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

¹²When thou takest the summe of the children of Israel, after their number, then shall they giue euery man a ransome for his soule vnto the Lord, when thou numbrest them, that there be no plague amongst them, when thou numbrest them.¹²

¹³This they shall giue, euery one that passeth among them that are numbred: halfe a shekel after the shekel of the Sanctuary: A shekel is twenty gerahs: an halfe shekel shall be the offering of the Lord.¹³

¹⁴Euery one that passeth among them that are numbred from twentie yeeres old and aboue, shall giue an offering vnto the Lord.

¹⁵The rich shal not giue more, and the poore shall not giue lesse then halfe a shekel, when they giue an offering vnto the Lord, to make an atonement for your soules.¹⁵

¹⁶And thou shalt take the atonement money of the children of Israel, and shalt appoint it for the seruice of the Tabernacle of the Congregation, that it may be a memoriall vnto the children of Israel before the Lord, to make an atonement for your soules.

¹⁷¶ And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

¹⁸Thou shalt also make a Lauer of brasse, and his foote also of brasse, to wash withall, and thou shalt put it betweene the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and the altar, and thou shalt put water therein.

¹⁹For Aaron and his sonnes shall wash their hands and their feet thereat.

²⁰When they goe into the Tabernacle of the Congregation, they shall wash with water, that they die not: or when they come neere to the altar to minister, to burne offering made by fire vnto the Lord.

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

²²¶ Moreouer the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

²³Take thou also vnto thee principall spices, of pure myrrhe fiue hundred shekels, and of sweet cinamon halfe so much, euen two hundred and fifty shekels, and of sweet calamus two hundred and fiftie shekels,

²⁴And of Cassia fiue hundred shekels, after the shekel of the Sanctuary, and of oyle oliue an Hin.²⁴

²⁵And thou shalt make it an oyle of holy oyntment, an oyntment compound after the arte of the Apothecarie: it shalbe an holy anointing oyle.²⁵

²⁶And thou shalt anoint the Tabernacle of the Congregation therewith, and the Arke of the Testimonie:

²⁷And the Table and all his vessels, and the Candlesticke, and his vessels, and the Altar of incense:

²⁸And the Altar of burnt offering with all his vessels, and the Lauer and his foot.

²⁹And thou shalt sanctifie them, that they may bee most holy: whatsoeuer toucheth them, shall be holy.

³⁰And thou shalt annoint Aaron and his sonnes, and consecrate them, that they may minister vnto mee in the priests office.

³¹And thou shalt speake vnto the children of Israel, saying, This shall bee an holy anointing oile vnto mee, throughout your generations.

³²Upon mans flesh shall it not bee powred, neither shall ye make any other like it, after the composition of it: it is holy, and it shall be holy vnto you.

³³Whosoeuer compoundeth any like it, or whosoeuer putteth any of it vpon a stranger, shall euen be cut off from his people.

³⁴¶ And the Lord said vnto Moses, Take vnto thee sweete spices, Stacte, and Onicha, and Galbanum: these sweete spices with pure frankincense, of each shall there be a like weight.

³⁵And thou shalt make it a perfume, a confection after the arte of the Apothecarie, tempered together, pure and holy.³⁵

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 shalbe vnto you most holy.

³⁷And as for the perfume which thou shalt make, you shall not make to your selues, according to the composition thereof: it shall be vnto thee holy for the Lord.

³⁸Whosoeuer shall make like vnto that, to smell thereto, shall euen bee cut off from his people.
