17. And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
18. Thou shalt also make a laver of brass, and its foot also of brass, to wash in: and thou shalt put it between the tabernacle of the congregation and the altar, and thou shalt put water therein.
19. For Aaron and their sons shall wash their hands and their feet thereat:
20. When they go into the tabernacle of the congregation, they shall wash with water, that they die not: or when they come near to the altar to minister, to burn offering made by fire to the LORD.
21. So they shall wash their hands and their feet, that they die not: and it shall be a statute for ever to them, even to him and to his seed throughout their generations.
22. Moreover the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
23. Take thou also to thee principal spices, of pure myrrh five hundred shekels, and of sweet cinnamon half as much, even two hundred and fifty shekels, and of sweet calamus two hundred and fifty shekels,
24. And of cassia five hundred shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, and of olive-oil a hin:
25. And thou shalt make it an oil of holy ointment, an ointment compound after the art of the apothecary: it shall be a holy anointing oil.
26. And thou shalt anoint the tabernacle of the congregation with it, and the ark of the testimony,
27. And the table and all its vessels, and the candlestick and its vessels, and the altar of incense,
28. And the altar of burnt-offering with all its vessels, and the laver and its foot.
29. And thou shalt sanctify them, that they may be most holy: whatever toucheth them shall be holy.
30. And thou shalt anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that they may minister to me in the priest's office.
31. And thou shalt speak to the children of Israel, saying, This shall be a holy anointing oil to me, throughout your generations.
32. Upon man's flesh shall it not be poured, neither shall ye make any other like it, after the composition of it: it is holy, and it shall be holy to you.
33. Whoever compoundeth any like it, or whoever putteth any of it upon a stranger, shall even be cut off from his people.
