English Standard Version

The Anointing Oil and Incense

²²The Lord said to Moses, ²³“Take the ^(A)finest spices: of liquid myrrh 500 shekels, and of sweet-smelling cinnamon half as much, that is, 250, and 250 of ^(B)aromatic cane, ²⁴and 500 of cassia, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, and a ^(C)hin^[a] of olive oil. ²⁵And you shall make of these a sacred anointing oil blended as by the ^(D)perfumer; it shall be a ^(E)holy anointing oil. ²⁶^(F)With it you shall anoint the tent of meeting and the ark of the testimony, ²⁷and the table and all its utensils, and the lampstand and its utensils, and the altar of incense, ²⁸and the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils and the ^(G)basin and its stand. ²⁹You shall consecrate them, that they may be most holy. ^(H)Whatever touches them will become holy. ³⁰^(I)You shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that they may serve me as priests.
