23 “Take the ^afinest spices: of liquid myrrh 500 shekels, and of sweet-smelling cinnamon half as much, that is, 250, and 250 of ^baromatic cane, 24 and 500 of cassia, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, and a ^chin ^{▼▼A hin was about 4 quarts or 3.5 liters} of olive oil. 25 And you shall make of these a sacred anointing oil blended as by the ^eperfumer; it shall be a ^fholy anointing oil. 26 ^gWith it you shall anoint the tent of meeting and the ark of the testimony, 27 and the table and all its utensils, and the lampstand and its utensils, and the altar of incense, 28 and the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils and the ^hbasin and its stand. 29 You shall consecrate them, that they may be most holy. ⁱWhatever touches them will become holy. 30 ^jYou shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that they may serve me as priests. 31 And you shall say to the people of Israel, ‘This shall be my holy anointing oil throughout your generations. 32 It shall not be poured on the body of an ordinary person, and you shall make no other like it in composition. ^kIt is holy, and it shall be holy to you. 33 ^lWhoever compounds any like it or whoever puts any of it on an outsider shall be cut off from his people.’”
