¹ And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

² Say to the children of Israel: The soul that sinneth through ignorance, and doth any thing concerning any of the commandments of the Lord, which he commanded not to be done:

³ If the priest that is anointed shall sin, making the people to offend, he shall offer to the Lord for his sin a calf without blemish.

⁴ And he shall bring it to the door of the testimony before the Lord, and shall put his hand upon the head thereof, and shall sacrifice it to the Lord.

⁵ He shall take also of the blood of the calf, and carry it into the tabernacle of the testimony.

⁶ And having dipped his finger in the blood, he shall sprinkle with it seven times before the Lord, before the veil of the sanctuary.

⁷ And he shall put some of the same blood upon the horns of the altar of the sweet incense most acceptable to the Lord, which is in the tabernacle of the testimony. And he shall pour all the rest of the blood at the foot of the altar of holocaust in the entry of the tabernacle.

⁸ And he shall take off the fat of the calf for the sin offering, as well that which covereth the entrails, as all the inwards:

⁹ The two little kidneys, and the caul that is upon them, which is by the hanks, and the fat of the liver with the little kidneys,

¹⁰ As it is taken off from the calf of the sacrifice of peace offerings, and he shall burn them upon the altar of holocaust.

¹¹ But the skin and all the flesh with the head and the feet and the bowels and the dung,

¹² And the rest of the body he shall carry forth without the camp into a clean place where the ashes are wont to be poured out, and he shall burn them upon a pile of wood, they shall be burnt in the place where the ashes are poured out.

¹³ And if all the multitude of Israel shall be ignorant, and through ignorance shall do that which is against the commandment of the Lord,

¹⁴ And afterwards shall understand their sin, they shall offer for their sin a calf, and shall bring it to the door of the tabernacle.

¹⁵ And the ancients of the people shall put their hands upon the head thereof before the Lord. And the calf being immolated in the sight of the Lord,

¹⁶ The priest that is anointed shall carry of the blood into the tabernacle of the testimony.

¹⁷ And shall dip his finger in it and sprinkle it seven times before the veil.

¹⁸ And he shall put of the same blood on the horns of the altar that is before the Lord, in the tabernacle of the testimony: and the rest of the blood he shall pour at the foot of the altar of holocaust, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony.

¹⁹ And all the fat thereof he shall take off, and shall burn it upon the altar:

²⁰ Doing so with this calf, as he did also with that before: and the priest praying for them, the Lord will be merciful unto them.

²¹ But the calf itself he shall carry forth without the camp, and shall burn it as he did the former calf: because it is for the sin of the multitude.

²² If a prince shall sin, and through ignorance do any one of the things that the law of the Lord forbiddeth,

²³ And afterwards shall come to know his sin, he shall offer a buck goat without blemish, a sacrifice to the Lord.

²⁴ And he shall put his hand upon the head thereof: and when he hath immolated it in the place where the holocaust is wont to be slain before the Lord, because it is for sin,

²⁵ The priest shall dip his finger in the blood of the victim for sin, touching therewith the horns of the altar of holocaust, and pouring out the rest at the foot thereof.

²⁶ But the fat he shall burn upon it, as is wont to be done with the victims of peace offerings: and the priest shall pray for him, and for his sin, and it shall be forgiven him.

²⁷ And if any one of the people of the land shall sin through ignorance, doing any of those things that by the law of the Lord are forbidden, and offending,

²⁸ And shall come to know his sin, he shall offer a she goat without blemish.

²⁹ And he shall put his hand upon the head of the victim that is for sin, and shall immolate it in the place of the holocaust.

³⁰ And the priest shall take of the blood with his finger, and shall touch the horns of the altar of holocaust, and shall pour out the rest at the foot thereof.

³¹ But taking off all the fat, as is wont to be taken away of the victims of peace offerings, he shall burn it upon the altar, for a sweet savour to the Lord: and he shall pray for him, and it shall be forgiven him.

³² But if he offer of the flock a victim for his sin, to wit, an ewe without blemish:

³³ He shall put his hand upon the head thereof, and shall immolate it in the place where the victims of holocausts are wont to be slain.

³⁴ And the priest shall take of the blood thereof with his finger, and shall touch the horns of the altar of holocaust, and the rest he shall pour out at the foot thereof.

³⁵ All the fat also he shall take off, as the fat of the ram that is offered for peace offerings is wont to be taken away: and shall burn it upon the altar, for a burnt sacrifice of the Lord: and he shall pray for him and for his sin, and it shall be forgiven him.

¹ "You shall make an altar to burn incense on. You shall make it of acacia wood.

² Its length shall be a cubit, and its breadth a cubit. It shall be square, and its height shall be two cubits. Its horns shall be of one piece with it.

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

⁴ You 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.

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

⁶ You shall put it before the veil that is by the ark of the testimony, before the mercy seat that is over the testimony, where I will meet with you.

⁷ Aaron shall burn incense of sweet spices on it every morning. When he tends the lamps, he shall burn it.

⁸ When Aaron lights the lamps at evening, he shall burn it, a perpetual incense before Yahweh throughout your generations.

⁹ You shall offer no strange incense on it, nor burnt offering, nor meal offering; and you shall pour no drink offering on it.

¹⁰ Aaron shall make atonement on its horns once in the year; with the blood of the sin offering of atonement once in the year he shall make atonement for it throughout your generations. It is most holy to Yahweh."

¹¹ Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

¹² "When you take a census of the children of Israel, according to those who are numbered among them, then each man shall give a ransom for his soul to Yahweh, when you number them; that there be no plague among them when you number them.

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

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

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

¹⁶ You 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 Yahweh, to make atonement for your souls."

¹⁷ Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

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

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

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

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

²² Moreover Yahweh 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;

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

³² It shall not be poured on man's flesh, neither shall you make any like it, according to its composition: it is holy. It shall be holy to you.

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

³⁴ Yahweh said to Moses, "Take to yourself sweet spices, gum resin, and onycha, and galbanum; sweet spices with pure frankincense: of each shall there be an equal weight;

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

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

³⁷ The incense which you shall make, according to its composition you shall not make for yourselves: it shall be to you holy for Yahweh.

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