Anointing Oil

²² Then the Lord said to Moses, ²³ “Take the following fine spices:^(A) 500 shekels^[a] of liquid myrrh,^(B) half as much (that is, 250 shekels) of fragrant cinnamon,^(C) 250 shekels^[b] of fragrant calamus,^{(D) 24} 500 shekels^(E) of cassia^(F)—all according to the sanctuary shekel—and a hin^[c] of olive oil. ²⁵ Make these into a sacred anointing oil, a fragrant blend, the work of a perfumer.^(G) It will be the sacred anointing oil.^{(H) 26} Then use it to anoint^(I) the tent of meeting, the ark of the covenant law, ²⁷ the table and all its articles, the lampstand and its accessories, the altar of incense, ²⁸ the altar of burnt offering and all its utensils, and the basin with its stand. ²⁹ You shall consecrate them^(J) so they will be most holy, and whatever touches them will be holy.^(K)

³⁰ “Anoint Aaron and his sons and consecrate^(L) them so they may serve me as priests.^{(M) 31} Say to the Israelites, ‘This is to be my sacred anointing oil^(N) for the generations to come.^{(O) 32} Do not pour it on anyone else’s body and do not make any other oil using the same formula. It is sacred, and you are to consider it sacred.^{(P) 33} Whoever makes perfume like it and puts it on anyone other than a priest must be cut off^(Q) from their people.’”

Incense

³⁴ Then the Lord said to Moses, “Take fragrant spices^(R)—gum resin, onycha and galbanum—and pure frankincense, all in equal amounts, ³⁵ and make a fragrant blend of incense,^(S) the work of a perfumer.^(T) It is to be salted and pure and sacred. ³⁶ Grind some of it to powder and place it in front of the ark of the covenant law in the tent of meeting, where I will meet^(U) with you. It shall be most holy^(V) to you. ³⁷ Do not make any incense with this formula for yourselves; consider it holy^(W) to the Lord. ³⁸ Whoever makes incense like it to enjoy its fragrance must be cut off^(X) from their people.”
