And you are to make them most holy; anything touching them will become holy.

As for the incense you are making, you must not make any for yourselves using its formula. It is to be regarded by you as sacred to the Lord.

the anointing oil, and the fragrant incense for the Holy Place. They are to make them in accordance with everything that I commanded you."

they have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them: they have made them a molten calf, and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed unto it, and said, These are thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.

And Yahweh said to Moses, "I have seen this people, and, indeed, they [are] a stiff-necked people.
