Exodus 30:1 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 "Make an altar from acacia wood. You will use this altar for burning incense.
2 You must make the altar square�1 cubit long and 1 cubit wide. It must be 2 cubits high. There will be horns at the four corners. These horns must be made as one piece with the altar.
3 Cover the top, the horns, and all four sides of the altar with pure gold. Then put gold trim all around the altar.
4 Below this trim there should be two gold rings. There should be two gold rings on opposite sides of the altar. These gold rings will be used with poles to carry the altar.
5 Make the poles from acacia wood and cover them with gold.
6 Put the altar just outside the special curtain that hangs in front of the Box of the Agreement. So the altar will be in front of the mercy-cover that is above the Agreement. This is the place where I will meet with you.
7 "Aaron must burn sweet-smelling incense on the altar every morning. He will do this when he comes to care for the lamps.
8 He must burn incense again when he checks the lamps in the evenings so that incense will be burned before the Lord every day forever.
9 Don't use this altar for offering any other kind of incense or burnt offering or for any kind of grain offering or drink offering.
10 "Once a year Aaron must make a special sacrifice. He will use the blood of the sin offering to erase the sins of the people. He will do this at the horns of this altar. This day will be called the Day of Atonement, and it will be a very special day for the Lord."
11 The Lord said to Moses,
12 "Count the Israelites so that you will know how many people there are. Every time this is done, each man must make a payment for himself to the Lord so that nothing terrible will happen to the people.
13 Each man who is counted must pay?shekel of silver. (That is?shekel by the official measure. This shekel weighs 20 gerahs. ) This half shekel is an offering to the Lord.
14 Every man who is at least 20 years old must be counted. And every man who is counted must give the Lord this offering.
15 The rich must not give more than?shekel, and the poor must not give less than?shekel. All people will make the same offering to the Lord. This will be a payment for your life.
16 Gather this money from the Israelites. Use the money for the service in the Meeting Tent. This payment will be a way for the Lord to remember his people. They will be paying for their own lives."
17 The Lord said to Moses,
18 "Make a bronze bowl and put it on a bronze base. You will use this for washing. Put the bowl between the Meeting Tent and the altar. Fill the bowl with water.
19 Aaron and his sons must wash their hands and feet with the water from this bowl.
20 Every time they enter the Meeting Tent, they must wash with that water so that they will not die. They must also wash every time they come near the altar to burn incense or to offer gifts to the Lord.
21 They must wash their hands and their feet so that they will not die. This will be a law that continues forever for Aaron and his people who will live in the future."
22 Then the Lord said to Moses,
23 "Find the finest spices. Get 12 pounds of liquid myrrh, half that amount (that is, 6 pounds ) of sweet-smelling cinnamon, and 12 pounds of sweet-smelling cane,
24 and 12 pounds of cassia. Use the official measure to measure all these things. Also get 1 gallon of olive oil.
25 "Mix all these things to make a special sweet-smelling anointing oil.
26 Pour this oil on the Meeting Tent and on the Box of the Agreement. This will show that these things have a special purpose.
27 Pour the oil on the table and on all the dishes on the table. And pour this oil on the lamp and on all its tools. Pour the oil on the incense altar.
28 Also, pour the oil on the altar for burning offerings to God. Pour this oil on everything on that altar. Pour this oil on the bowl and on the base under the bowl.
29 You will make all these things holy. They will be very special to the Lord. Anything that touches these things will also become holy.
30 "Pour the oil on Aaron and his sons to show that they are separated from the rest of the people to serve as priests.
31 Tell the Israelites that the anointing oil is holy�it must always be used only for me.
32 This oil is holy and you must treat it as something special. Don't use the same formula for making perfume and don't let people use this oil like an ordinary perfume.
33 Whoever makes a perfume like that and puts it on anyone except a priest must be separated from the people."
34 Then the Lord said to Moses, "Get these sweet-smelling spices: resin, onycha, galbanum, and pure frankincense. Be sure that you have equal amounts of these spices.
35 Mix the spices together to make a sweet-smelling incense. Do this the same as a perfume maker would do it. Also mix salt with this incense. This will make it pure and special.
36 Grind some of the incense until it becomes a fine powder. Put the powder in front of the Holy Box that holds the Agreement in the Meeting Tent. This is the place where I meet with you. You must use this incense powder only for its very special purpose.
37 You must use it only in this special way for the Lord. You must also make it in a special way. Don't make any other incense in this way.
38 There may be people who will want to make some of this incense for themselves so that they can enjoy the smell. But whoever does this must be separated from their people."

7 And Aaron H175 shall burn H6999 thereon H5921 sweet H5561 incense H7004 every morning H1242 H1242 : when he dresseth H3190 H853 the lamps, H5216 he shall burn incense H6999 upon it.
8 And when Aaron H175 lighteth H5927 H853 the lamps H5216 at H996 even, H6153 he shall burn incense H6999 upon it , a perpetual H8548 incense H7004 before H6440 the LORD H3068 throughout your generations. H1755
9 Ye shall offer H5927 no H3808 strange H2114 incense H7004 thereon, H5921 nor burnt sacrifice, H5930 nor meat offering; H4503 neither H3808 shall ye pour H5258 drink offering H5262 thereon. H5921
10 And Aaron H175 shall make an atonement H3722 upon H5921 the horns H7161 of it once H259 in a year H8141 with the blood H4480 H1818 of the sin offering H2403 of atonements: H3725 once H259 in the year H8141 shall he make atonement H3722 upon H5921 it throughout your generations: H1755 it H1931 is most holy H6944 H6944 unto the LORD. H3068
11 And the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 unto H413 Moses, H4872 saying, H559
12 When H3588 thou takest H5375 H853 the sum H7218 of the children H1121 of Israel H3478 after their number, H6485 then shall they give H5414 every man H376 a ransom H3724 for his soul H5315 unto the LORD, H3068 when thou numberest H6485 them ; that there be H1961 no H3808 plague H5063 among them , when thou numberest H6485 them.
13 This H2088 they shall give, H5414 every one H3605 that passeth H5674 among H5921 them that are numbered, H6485 half H4276 a shekel H8255 after the shekel H8255 of the sanctuary: H6944 (a shekel H8255 is twenty H6242 gerahs: H1626 ) a half H4276 shekel H8255 shall be the offering H8641 of the LORD. H3068
14 Every one H3605 that passeth H5674 among H5921 them that are numbered, H6485 from twenty H6242 years H8141 old H4480 H1121 and above, H4605 shall give H5414 an offering H8641 unto the LORD. H3068
15 The rich H6223 shall not H3808 give more, H7235 and the poor H1800 shall not H3808 give less H4591 than half H4480 H4276 a shekel, H8255 when they give H5414 H853 an offering H8641 unto the LORD, H3068 to make an atonement H3722 for H5921 your souls. H5315
16 And thou shalt take H3947 H853 the atonement H3725 money H3701 of H4480 H854 the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 and shalt appoint H5414 it for H5921 the service H5656 of the tabernacle H168 of the congregation; H4150 that it may be H1961 a memorial H2146 unto the children H1121 of Israel H3478 before H6440 the LORD, H3068 to make an atonement H3722 for H5921 your souls. H5315
17 And the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 unto H413 Moses, H4872 saying, H559
18 Thou shalt also make H6213 a laver H3595 of brass, H5178 and his foot H3653 also of brass, H5178 to wash H7364 withal : and thou shalt put H5414 it between H996 the tabernacle H168 of the congregation H4150 and the altar, H4196 and thou shalt put H5414 water H4325 therein. H8033
19 For Aaron H175 and his sons H1121 shall wash H7364 H853 their hands H3027 and their feet H7272 thereat: H4480
20 When they go H935 into H413 the tabernacle H168 of the congregation, H4150 they shall wash H7364 with water, H4325 that they die H4191 not; H3808 or H176 when they come near H5066 to H413 the altar H4196 to minister, H8334 to burn H6999 offering made by fire H801 unto the LORD: H3068
21 So they shall wash H7364 their hands H3027 and their feet, H7272 that they die H4191 not: H3808 and it shall be H1961 a statute H2706 forever H5769 to them, even to him and to his seed H2233 throughout their generations. H1755
22 Moreover the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 unto H413 Moses, H4872 saying, H559
23 Take H3947 thou H859 also unto thee principal H7218 spices, H1314 of pure H1865 myrrh H4753 five H2568 hundred H3967 shekels , and of sweet H1314 cinnamon H7076 half so much, H4276 even two hundred H3967 and fifty H2572 shekels , and of sweet H1314 calamus H7070 two hundred H3967 and fifty H2572 shekels ,
24 And of cassia H6916 five H2568 hundred H3967 shekels , after the shekel H8255 of the sanctuary, H6944 and of oil H8081 olive H2132 a hin: H1969
25 And thou shalt make H6213 it an oil H8081 of holy H6944 ointment, H4888 an ointment H7545 compound H4842 after the art H4639 of the apothecary: H7543 it shall be H1961 a holy H6944 anointing H4888 oil. H8081
26 And thou shalt anoint H4886 H853 the tabernacle H168 of the congregation H4150 therewith , and the ark H727 of the testimony, H5715
27 And the table H7979 and all H3605 his vessels, H3627 and the candlestick H4501 and his vessels, H3627 and the altar H4196 of incense, H7004
28 And the altar H4196 of burnt offering H5930 with all H3605 his vessels, H3627 and the laver H3595 and his foot. H3653
29 And thou shalt sanctify H6942 them , that they may be H1961 most holy H6944 H6944 : whatsoever H3605 toucheth H5060 them shall be holy. H6942
30 And thou shalt anoint H4886 Aaron H175 and his sons, H1121 and consecrate H6942 them , that they may minister unto me in the priest's office. H3547
31 And thou shalt speak H1696 unto H413 the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 saying, H559 This H2088 shall be H1961 a holy H6944 anointing H4888 oil H8081 unto me throughout your generations. H1755
32 Upon H5921 man's H120 flesh H1320 shall it not H3808 be poured, H3251 neither H3808 shall ye make H6213 any other like it, H3644 after the composition H4971 of it: it H1931 is holy, H6944 and it shall be H1961 holy H6944 unto you.
33 Whosoever H376 H834 compoundeth H7543 any like it, H3644 or whosoever H834 putteth H5414 any of H4480 it upon H5921 a stranger, H2114 shall even be cut off H3772 from his people H4480 H5971 .
34 And the LORD H3068 said H559 unto H413 Moses, H4872 Take H3947 unto thee sweet spices, H5561 stacte, H5198 and onycha, H7827 and galbanum; H2464 these sweet spices H5561 with pure H2134 frankincense: H3828 of each H905 shall there be H1961 a like H905 weight :
35 And thou shalt make H6213 it a perfume, H7004 a confection H7545 after the art H4639 of the apothecary, H7543 tempered together, H4414 pure H2889 and holy: H6944
36 And thou shalt beat H7833 some of H4480 it very small, H1854 and put H5414 of H4480 it before H6440 the testimony H5715 in the tabernacle H168 of the congregation, H4150 where H834 H8033 I will meet H3259 with thee : it shall be H1961 unto you most holy H6944 H6944 .
37 And as for the perfume H7004 which H834 thou shalt make, H6213 ye shall not H3808 make H6213 to yourselves according to the composition H4971 thereof : it shall be H1961 unto thee holy H6944 for the LORD. H3068
38 Whosoever H376 H834 shall make H6213 like unto that, H3644 to smell H7306 thereto , shall even be cut off H3772 from his people H4480 H5971 .
