Exodus 30
1 “You shall make an altar to burn incense on. You shall make it of acacia wood.
Also thou schalt make an auter of the trees of Sechym, to brenne encense;
2 Its length shall be a cubit, and its width a cubit. It shall be square, and its height shall be two cubits. Its horns shall be of one piece with it.
and the auter schal haue a cubit of lengthe, and another cubit of brede, that is foure cornerid, and twei cubitis in heiythe; corneris schulen come forth of the auter.
3 You shall overlay it with pure gold, its top, its sides around it, and its horns; and you shall make a gold molding around it.
And thou schalt clothe it with clennest gold, as wel the gridil therof, as the wallis and corneris bi cumpas therof; and thou schalt make to the auter a litil goldun coroun,
4 You shall make two golden rings for it under its molding; on its two ribs, on its two sides you shall make them; and they shall be for places for poles with which to bear it.
`bi cumpas, and twei goldun serclis vndur the coroun by alle sidis, that barris be put in to the serclis, and the auter be borun.
5 You shall make the poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold.
Also thou schalt make tho barris of the trees of Sechym, and thou schalt ouergilde;
6 You shall put it before the veil that is by the ark of the covenant, before the mercy seat that is over the covenant, where I will meet with you.
and thou schalt sette the auter ayens the veil, which veil hangith bifor the ark of witnessyng bifor the propiciatorie, bi which the witnessyng is hilid, where Y schal speke to thee.
7 Aaron shall burn incense of sweet spices on it every morning. When he tends the lamps, he shall burn it.
And Aaron schal brenne theronne encense smellynge swetly eerli; whanne he schal araye the lanternes, he schal brenne it;
8 When Aaron lights the lamps at evening, he shall burn it, a perpetual incense before the LORD throughout your generations.
and whanne he settith the lanternes at euentid, he schal brenne euerlastynge encense bifor the Lord, in to youre generaciouns.
9 You shall offer no strange incense on it, nor burnt offering, nor meal offering; and you shall pour no drink offering on it.
Ye schulen not offre theronne encense of other makyng, nethir offryng, and slayn sacrifice, nether ye schulen offre fletynge offryngis thereonne.
10 Aaron shall make atonement on its horns once in the year; with the blood of the sin offering of atonement once in the year he shall make atonement for it throughout your generations. It is most holy to the LORD.”
And Aaron schal preie on the corneres therof onis bi the yeer, in the blood which is offrid for synne, and he schal plese theronne in youre generaciouns; it schal be the hooli of hooli thingis to the Lord.
11 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
And the Lord spak to Moises,
12 “When you take a census of the children of Israel, according to those who are counted among them, then each man shall give a ransom for his soul to the LORD when you count them, that there be no plague among them when you count them.
and seide, Whanne thou schalt take the summe of the sones of Israel, alle bi hem silf schulen yyue `bi the noumbre prijs for her soulis to the Lord, and veniaunce schal not be in hem, whanne thei ben noumbrid.
13 They shall give this, everyone who passes over to those who are counted, half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary (the shekel is twenty gerahs); half a shekel for an offering to the LORD.
Sotheli ech that passith to the name, schal yyue this, half a sicle bi the mesure of the temple; a sicle hath twenti halpens; the myddil part of a cicle schal be offrid to the Lord.
14 Everyone who passes over to those who are counted, from twenty years old and upward, shall give the offering to the LORD.
He that is hadde in noumbre, fro twenti yeer and aboue,
15 The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less, than the half shekel, when they give the offering of the LORD, to make atonement for your souls.
schal yyue prijs; a riche man schal not adde to the myddil of cicle, and a pore man schal no thing abate.
16 You shall take the atonement money from the children of Israel, and shall appoint it for the service of the Tent of Meeting; that it may be a memorial for the children of Israel before the LORD, to make atonement for your souls.”
And thou schalt bitake in to vsis of the tabernacle of witnessyng the money takun, which is gaderid of the sones of Israel, that it be the mynde of hem bifor the Lord, and he schal be merciful to `the soulis of hem.
17 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
And the Lord spak to Moises,
18 “You shall also make a basin of bronze, and its base of bronze, in which to wash. You shall put it between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and you shall put water in it.
and seide, Also thou schalt make a greet vessil of bras with his foundement to waische, and thou schalt sette it bitwixe the tabernacle of witnessyng and the auter `of brent sacrifices; and whanne watir is put therynne,
19 Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet in it.
Aaron and hise sones schulen waische therynne her hondis and feet,
20 When they go into the Tent of Meeting, they shall wash with water, that they not die; or when they come near to the altar to minister, to burn an offering made by fire to the LORD.
whanne thei schulen entre in to the tabernacle of witnessyng, and whanne thei schulen neiye to the auter that thei offre therynne encense to the Lord,
21 So they shall wash their hands and their feet, that they not die. This shall be a statute forever to them, even to him and to his descendants throughout their generations.”
lest perauenture thei dien; it schal be a lawful thing euerlastinge to hym and to his seed bi successiouns.
22 Moreover the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
And the Lord spak to Moises,
23 “Also take fine spices: of liquid myrrh, five hundred shekels; and of fragrant cinnamon half as much, even two hundred and fifty; and of fragrant cane, two hundred and fifty;
and seide, Take to thee swete smellynge spiceries, of the firste and chosun myrre, fyue hundrid siclis; and of canel the half, that is, twei hundrid and fifti siclis;
24 and of cassia five hundred, according to the shekel of the sanctuary; and a hin of olive oil.
in lijk maner of calamy twei hundrid and fifti siclis; also of casia fyue hundrid siclis, in the weiyte of seyntuarie; oile of olyue trees, the mesure hyn;
25 You shall make it into a holy anointing oil, a perfume compounded after the art of the perfumer: it shall be a holy anointing oil.
and thou schalt make the hooly oile of anoyntyng, an oynement maad bi the werk of a `makere of oynement.
26 You shall use it to anoint the Tent of Meeting, the ark of the covenant,
And thou schal anoynte therof the tabernacle of witnessyng, and the ark of testament, and the boord with hise vessels,
27 the table and all its articles, the lamp stand and its accessories, the altar of incense,
the candilstike, and the purtenaunces therof, the auteris of encense,
28 the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the basin with its base.
and of brent sacrifice, and al the purtenaunce, that perteyneth to the ournyng of tho.
29 You shall sanctify them, that they may be most holy. Whatever touches them shall be holy.
And thou schalt halewe alle thingis, and tho schulen be the hooli of holi thingis; he that schal touche tho, schal be halewid.
30 You shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and sanctify them, that they may minister to me in the priest’s office.
Thou schalt anoynte Aaron, and hise sones, and thou schalt halewe hem, that thei be set in presthod to me.
31 You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘This shall be a holy anointing oil to me throughout your generations.
And thou schalt seie to the sones of Israel, This oile of anoyntyng schal be hooli to me in to youre generaciouns.
32 It shall not be poured on man’s flesh, and do not make any like it, according to its composition. It is holy. It shall be holy to you.
The fleisch of man schal not be anoyntid therof, and bi the makyng therof ye schulen not make another, for it is halewid, and it schal be hooli to you.
33 Whoever compounds any like it, or whoever puts any of it on a stranger, he shall be cut off from his people.’”
What euer man makith sich oile, and yyueth therof to an alien, he schal be `destried fro his puple.
34 The LORD said to Moses, “Take to yourself sweet spices, gum resin, onycha, and galbanum: sweet spices with pure frankincense. There shall be an equal weight of each.
Forsothe the Lord seide to Moises, Take to thee swete smellynge spyceries, stacten, and onyca, galban of good odour, and pureste encense, alle schulen be of euene weiyte.
35 You shall make incense of it, a perfume after the art of the perfumer, seasoned with salt, pure and holy.
And thou schal make encence, maad by werk of oynement makere, meddlid diligentli, and pure, and moost worthi of halewyng.
36 You shall beat some of it very small, and put some of it before the covenant in the Tent of Meeting, where I will meet with you. It shall be to you most holy.
And whanne thou hast powned alle thingis in to smalleste poudre, thou schalt putte therof bifor the tabernacle of witnessyng, in which place Y schal appere to thee; encense schal be to you the hooli of hooli thingis.
37 You shall not make this incense, according to its composition, for yourselves: it shall be to you holy for the LORD.
Ye schulen not make siche a makyng in to youre vsis, for it is hooli to the Lord.
38 Whoever shall make any like that, to smell of it, he shall be cut off from his people.”
What euer man makith a lijk thing, that he vse the odour therof, he schal perische fro his puple.
