And put them all on the hands of Aaron and of his sons, to be waved for a wave offering before the Lord.

Then take them from their hands, and let them be burned on the burned offering on the altar, a sweet smell before the Lord, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

Then take the breast of Aaron's sheep, waving it before the Lord; and it is to be your part of the offering.

And it will be their part as a right for ever from the children of Israel, it is a special offering from the children of Israel, made from their peace-offerings, a special offering lifted up to the Lord.

And Aaron's holy robes will be used by his sons after him; they will put them on when they are made priests.

Then take the sheep of the wave offering and let its flesh be cooked in water in a holy place.

All those things which were used as offerings to take away sin, and to make them holy to be priests, they may have for food: but no one who is not a priest may have them, for they are holy food.

And if any of the flesh of the offering or of the bread is over till the morning, let it be burned with fire; it is not to be used for food, for it is holy.

Every day an ox is to be offered as a sin-offering, to take away sins: and by this offering on it, you will make the altar clean from sin; and you are to put oil on it and make it holy.

One lamb is to be offered in the morning and the other in the evening:

And the other lamb is to be offered in the evening, and with it the same meal offering and drink offering, for a sweet smell, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

This is to be a regular burned offering made from generation to generation, at the door of the Tent of meeting before the Lord, where I will come face to face with you and have talk with you.

There I will come face to face with the children of Israel, and the Tent will be made holy by my glory

I will make holy the Tent of meeting and the altar: and Aaron and his sons I will make holy, to be my priests

Among the children of Israel I will make my living-place, and I will be their God.

And they will see that I am the Lord their God, who took them out of the land of Egypt, so that I might be ever with them: I am the Lord their God.

And you are to make an altar for the burning of perfume; of hard wood let it be made.

The altar is to be square, a cubit long and a cubit wide, and two cubits high, and its horns are to be made of the same.

It is to be plated with the best gold, the top of it and the sides and the horns, with an edging of gold all round it.

And let it be placed in front of the veil before the ark of the law, before the cover which is over the law, where I will come face to face with you.

And on this altar sweet spices are to be burned by Aaron every morning when he sees to the lights.

And every evening, when he puts the lights up in their places, the spices are to be burned, a sweet-smelling smoke going up before the Lord from generation to generation for ever.

No strange perfume, no burned offering or meal offering, and no drink offering is to be offered on it.

And this is what they are to give; let every man who is numbered give half a shekel, by the scale of the holy place: (the shekel being valued at twenty gerahs:) this money is an offering to the Lord.

And you are to take this money from the children of Israel to be used for the work of the Tent of meeting, to keep the memory of the children of Israel before the Lord and to be the price of your lives.

That it may be used by Aaron and his sons for washing their hands and feet;

Whenever they go into the Tent of meeting they are to be washed with water, to keep them from death; and whenever they come near to do the work of the altar, or to make an offering by fire to the Lord,

Their hands and feet are to be washed. so that they may be safe from death: this is an order to them for ever; to him and his seed from generation to generation.

And of cassia, five hundred shekels' weight measured by the scale of the holy place, and of olive oil a hin:

And make these into a holy oil, a perfume made by the art of the perfume-maker; it is to be a holy oil.

This oil is to be put on the Tent of meeting, and on the ark of the law,

And say to the children of Israel, This is to be the Lord's holy oil, from generation to generation.

It is not to be used for man's flesh, and no other is to be made like it: holy it is, and you are to keep it holy.

Whoever makes any like it, or puts it on one who is not a priest, will be cut off from his people.

And make from them a perfume, such as is made by the art of the perfume-maker, mixed with salt, and clean and holy.

And put some of it, crushed very small, in front of the ark in the Tent of meeting, where I will come face to face with you; it is to be most holy.

You are not to make any perfume like it for yourselves: it is to be kept holy to the Lord.

Whoever makes any like it, for its sweet smell, will be cut off from his people.

I have made selection of Bezalel, the son of Uri, by name, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah:

So you are to keep the Sabbath as a holy day; and anyone not honouring it will certainly be put to death: whoever does any work on that day will be cut off from his people.

Six days may work be done, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of complete rest, holy to the Lord; whoever does any work on the Sabbath day is to be put to death.

And the children of Israel are to keep the Sabbath holy, from generation to generation, by an eternal agreement.

And when his talk with Moses on Mount Sinai was ended, he gave him the two stones of the law, two stones on which was the writing made by the finger of God.

And when Aaron saw this, he made an altar before it, and made a public statement, saying, Tomorrow there will be a feast to the Lord.

Why let the Egyptians say, He took them out to an evil fate, to put them to death on the mountains, cutting them off from the earth? Let your wrath be turned away from them, and send not this evil on your people.

Have in mind Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, to whom you gave your oath, saying, I will make your seed like the stars of heaven in number, and all this land will I give to your seed, as I said, to be their heritage for ever.

So the Lord let himself be turned from his purpose of sending punishment on his people.

And Aaron said, Let not my lord be angry; you have seen how the purposes of this people are evil.

But now, if you will give them forgiveness--but if not, let my name be taken out of your book.

And the Lord said to Moses, Whoever has done evil against me will be taken out of my book.

And whenever Moses went into the Tent, the pillar of cloud came down, and took its place by the door of the Tent, as long as the Lord was talking with Moses.

And Moses said to the Lord, See, you say to me, Be this people's guide on their journey, but you have not made clear to me whom you will send with me. But you have said, I have knowledge of you by name, and you have grace in my eyes.

If then I have grace in your eyes, let me see your ways, so that I may have knowledge of you and be certain of your grace; and my prayer is that you will keep in mind that this nation is your people.

And the Lord said to Moses, I will do as you say: for you have grace in my eyes, and I have knowledge of you by your name.

And he said, I will make all the light of my being come before you, and will make clear to you what I am; I will be kind to those to whom I will be kind, and have mercy on those on whom I will have mercy.

And when my glory goes by, I will put you in a hole in the rock, covering you with my hand till I have gone past:

Then I will take away my hand, and you will see my back: but my face is not to be seen.

And the Lord said to Moses, Make two other stones like the first two; and I will put on them the words which were on the first stones, which were broken by you.

And be ready by the morning, and come up on Mount Sinai, and come before me there in the morning, on the top of the mountain.

No one is to come up with you, and let no man be seen anywhere on the mountain; let no flocks or herds come near to get their food at its foot.

And the Lord came down in the cloud and took his place by the side of Moses, and Moses gave worship to the name of the Lord.

And the Lord said, See, this is what I will undertake: before the eyes of your people I will do wonders, such as have not been done in all the earth or in any nation: and all your people will see the work of the Lord, for what I am about to do for you is greatly to be feared.

But take care, and do not make any agreement with the people of the land where you are going, for it will be a cause of sin to you.

But their altars are to be overturned and their pillars broken and their images cut down:

For you are to be worshippers of no other god: for the Lord is a God who will not give his honour to another.

So see that you make no agreement with the people of the land, and do not go after their gods, or take part in their offerings, or be guests at their feasts,

Keep the feast of unleavened bread; for seven days your food is to be bread without leaven, as I gave you orders, at the regular time in the month Abib; for in that month you came out of Egypt.

A lamb may be given in payment for the young of an ass, but if you will not make payment for it, its neck will have to be broken. For all the first of your sons you are to make payment. No one is to come before me without an offering.

Six days let work be done, but on the seventh day take your rest: at ploughing time and at the grain-cutting you are to have a day for rest.

No leaven is to be offered with the blood of my offering, and the offering of the Passover feast may not be kept till the morning.

Take the first-fruits of your land as an offering to the house of the Lord your God. Let not the young goat be cooked in its mother's milk

Six days let work be done, but the seventh day is to be a holy day to you, a Sabbath of rest to the Lord; whoever does any work on that day is to be put to death.

No fire is to be lighted in any of your houses on the Sabbath day.

And beryls and jewels to be cut for the ephod and for the priest's bag.

And let every wise-hearted man among you come and make whatever has been ordered by the Lord;

And everyone whose heart was moved, everyone who was guided by the impulse of his spirit, came with his offering for the Lord, for whatever was needed for the Tent of meeting and its work and for the holy robes.

Then Moses sent for Bezalel and Oholiab, and for all the wise-hearted men to whom the Lord had given wisdom, even everyone who was moved by the impulse of his heart to come and take part in the work:

For the material they had was enough and more than enough for all the work which had to be done.

Then all the expert workmen among them made the House with its ten curtains; of the best linen, blue and purple and red, they made them, with winged ones worked by expert designers.

And he made the veil of the best linen, blue and purple and red, worked with winged ones designed by expert workmen.

The rings were fixed under the frame to take the rods with which the table was to be lifted.

And he made the washing-vessel of brass on a brass base, using the polished brass looking-glasses given by the women who did work at the doors of the Tent of meeting.

This is the price of the making of the House, even the House of witness, as it was valued by the word of Moses, for the work of the Levites under the direction of Ithamar, the son of Aaron the priest.

The gold used for all the different work done for the holy place, the gold which was given, was twenty-nine talents, and seven hundred and thirty shekels in weight, by the scale of the holy place.

And the silver given by those who were numbered of the people was a hundred talents, and a thousand, seven hundred and seventy-five shekels in weight, by the scale of the holy place.

A beka, that is, half a shekel by the holy scale, for everyone who was numbered; there were six hundred and three thousand, five hundred and fifty men of twenty years old and over.

Hammering the gold into thin plates and cutting it into wires to be worked into the blue and the purple and the red and the linen by the designer.

These he put on the ephod, over the arm-holes, to be stones of memory for the children of Israel, as the Lord had said to Moses.

And the rings on the bag were fixed to the rings of the ephod by a blue cord, keeping it in place over the band, so that the bag might not get loose, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

It was fixed to the head-dress by a blue cord, as the Lord had given orders to Moses.

The support for the lights, with the vessels for the lights to be put in their places on it, and all its vessels, and the oil for the lights;

And put the table inside, placing all the things on it in order; and put in the support for the lights, and let its lights be burning.

And let the washing-vessel, with water in it, be put between the Tent of meeting and the altar.

And put oil on the altar of burned offering, and make it and all its vessels holy; this altar is to be most holy.

You are to put on Aaron the holy robes; and you are to put oil on him, and make him holy, so that he may be my priest.

And put oil on them as you did on their father, so that they may be my priests: the putting on of oil will make them priests for ever, from generation to generation.

For the cloud of the Lord was resting on the House by day, and at night there was fire in the cloud, before the eyes of all the people of Israel, and so it was through all their journeys.
