اَلْخُرُوجُ 30

١ 1 «وَتَصْنَعُ مَذْبَحًا لِإِيقَادِ ٱلْبَخُورِ. مِنْ خَشَبِ ٱلسَّنْطِ تَصْنَعُهُ.

“Make an altar for burning incense from acacia wood.

٢ 2 طُولُهُ ذِرَاعٌ وَعَرْضُهُ ذِرَاعٌ. مُرَبَّعًا يَكُونُ. وَٱرْتِفَاعُهُ ذِرَاعَانِ. مِنْهُ تَكُونُ قُرُونُهُ.

It shall be square, measuring a cubit by a cubit, by two cubits high, with horns on its corners that are all one piece with the altar.

٣ 3 وَتُغَشِّيهِ بِذَهَبٍ نَقِيٍّ: سَطْحَهُ وَحِيطَانَهُ حَوَالَيْهِ وَقُرُونَهُ. وَتَصْنَعُ لَهُ إِكْلِيلًا مِنْ ذَهَبٍ حَوَالَيْهِ.

Cover its top, its side, and its horns with pure gold, and make a gold trim to go all around it.

٤ 4 وَتَصْنَعُ لَهُ حَلْقَتَيْنِ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ تَحْتَ إِكْلِيلِهِ عَلَى جَانِبَيْهِ. عَلَى ٱلْجَانِبَيْنِ تَصْنَعُهُمَا، لِتَكُونَا بَيْتَيْنِ لِعَصَوَيْنِ لِحَمْلِهِ بِهِمَا.

Make two gold rings for the altar and attach them below the trim, two on both sides, to hold the poles to carry it.

٥ 5 وَتَصْنَعُ ٱلْعَصَوَيْنِ مِنْ خَشَبِ ٱلسَّنْطِ وَتُغَشِّيهِمَا بِذَهَبٍ.

Make the poles of acacia wood and cover them with gold.

٦ 6 وَتَجْعَلُهُ قُدَّامَ ٱلْحِجَابِ ٱلَّذِي أَمَامَ تَابُوتِ ٱلشَّهَادَةِ. قُدَّامَ ٱلْغِطَاءِ ٱلَّذِي عَلَى ٱلشَّهَادَةِ حَيْثُ أَجْتَمِعُ بِكَ.

Put the altar in front of the veil that hangs before the Ark of the Testimony and the atonement cover that is over the Testimony where I will meet with you.

٧ 7 فَيُوقِدُ عَلَيْهِ هَارُونُ بَخُورًا عَطِرًا كُلَّ صَبَاحٍ، حِينَ يُصْلِحُ ٱلسُّرُجَ يُوقِدُهُ.

Aaron is to burn fragrant incense on the altar every morning when he takes care of the lamps.

٨ 8 وَحِينَ يُصْعِدُ هَارُونُ ٱلسُّرُجَ فِي ٱلْعَشِيَّةِ يُوقِدُهُ. بَخُورًا دَائِمًا أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي أَجْيَالِكُمْ.

When he lights the lamps in the evening he must burn incense again so that incense will always be burned in the Lord's presence for generations to come.

٩ 9 لَا تُصْعِدُوا عَلَيْهِ بَخُورًا غَرِيبًا وَلَا مُحْرَقَةً أَوْ تَقْدِمَةً، وَلَا تَسْكُبُوا عَلَيْهِ سَكِيبًا.

Don't offer on this altar any unapproved incense or any burnt offering or grain offering, and do not pour out a drink offering upon it.

١٠ 10 وَيَصْنَعُ هَارُونُ كَفَّارَةً عَلَى قُرُونِهِ مَرَّةً فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ. مِنْ دَمِ ذَبِيحَةِ ٱلْخَطِيَّةِ ٱلَّتِي لِلْكَفَّارَةِ مَرَّةً فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ يَصْنَعُ كَفَّارَةً عَلَيْهِ فِي أَجْيَالِكُمْ. قُدْسُ أَقْدَاسٍ هُوَ لِلرَّبِّ».

Once a year Aaron must perform the atonement ritual by placing blood on the horns of the altar from the sin offering for atonement. This yearly atonement ritual must be carried out for generations to come. This is the Lord's holy altar.”

١١ 11 وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا:

The Lord told Moses,

١٢ 12 «إِذَا أَخَذْتَ كَمِّيَّةَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ بِحَسَبِ ٱلْمَعْدُودِينَ مِنْهُمْ، يُعْطُونَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ فِدْيَةَ نَفْسِهِ لِلرَّبِّ عِنْدَمَا تَعُدُّهُمْ، لِئَلَّا يَصِيرَ فِيهِمْ وَبَأٌ عِنْدَمَا تَعُدُّهُمْ.

“When you take a census of the Israelites, each man must pay the Lord to buy back his life when he's counted. Then they won't suffer from the plague when they're counted.

١٣ 13 هَذَا مَا يُعْطِيهِ كُلُّ مَنِ ٱجْتَازَ إِلَى ٱلْمَعْدُودِينَ: نِصْفُ ٱلشَّاقِلِ بِشَاقِلِ ٱلْقُدْسِ. ٱلشَّاقِلُ هُوَ عِشْرُونَ جِيرَةً. نِصْفُ ٱلشَّاقِلِ تَقْدِمَةً لِلرَّبِّ.

Each one who crosses over to those counted must give a half shekel, (using the sanctuary shekel standard, which weighs twenty gerahs). This half shekel is an offering to the Lord.

١٤ 14 كُلُّ مَنِ ٱجْتَازَ إِلَى ٱلْمَعْدُودِينَ مِنِ ٱبْنِ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً فَصَاعِدًا يُعْطِي تَقْدِمَةً لِلرَّبِّ.

This offering to the Lord is required from everyone twenty years old and more.

١٥ 15 اَلْغَنِيُّ لَا يُكَثِّرُ وَٱلْفَقِيرُ لَا يُقَلِّلُ عَنْ نِصْفِ ٱلشَّاقِلِ حِينَ تُعْطُونَ تَقْدِمَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ لِلتَّكْفِيرِ عَنْ نُفُوسِكُمْ.

When you give this offering to buy back your lives the rich are not to give more than a half shekel and the poor are not to give less.

١٦ 16 وَتَأْخُذُ فِضَّةَ ٱلْكَفَّارَةِ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَتَجْعَلُهَا لِخِدْمَةِ خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ. فَتَكُونُ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ تَذْكَارًا أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ لِلتَّكْفِيرِ عَنْ نُفُوسِكُمْ».

Take this money paid by the Israelites and use it for the expenses involved in the services of the Tent of Meeting. It will serve as a reminder for the Israelites to buy back your lives in the presence of the Lord.”

١٧ 17 وَكَلَّمْ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا:

The Lord told Moses,

١٨ 18 «وَتَصْنَعُ مِرْحَضَةً مِنْ نُحَاسٍ، وَقَاعِدَتَهَا مِنْ نُحَاسٍ، لِلِٱغْتِسَالِ. وَتَجْعَلُهَا بَيْنَ خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ وَٱلْمَذْبَحِ، وَتَجْعَلُ فِيهَا مَاءً.

“Make a bronze basin with a bronze stand for washing. Place it between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and put water in it.

١٩ 19 فَيَغْسِلُ هَارُونُ وَبَنُوهُ أَيْدِيَهُمْ وَأَرْجُلَهُمْ مِنْهَا.

Aaron and his sons will use it to wash their hands and feet.

٢٠ 20 عِنْدَ دُخُولِهِمْ إِلَى خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ يَغْسِلُونَ بِمَاءٍ لِئَلَّا يَمُوتُوا، أَوْ عِنْدَ ٱقْتِرَابِهِمْ إِلَى ٱلْمَذْبَحِ لِلْخِدْمَةِ لِيُوقِدُوا وَقُودًا لِلرَّبِّ.

Whenever they enter the Tent of Meeting, they are to wash with water so that they will not die. When they approach the altar to present burnt offerings to the Lord,

٢١ 21 يَغْسِلُونَ أَيْدِيَهُمْ وَأَرْجُلَهُمْ لِئَلَّا يَمُوتُوا. وَيَكُونُ لَهُمْ فَرِيضَةً أَبَدِيَّةً لَهُ وَلِنَسْلِهِ فِي أَجْيَالِهِمْ».

they must also wash so that they will not die. This requirement is to be observed by them and their descendants for all generations.”

٢٢ 22 وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا:

The Lord told Moses,

٢٣ 23 «وَأَنْتَ تَأْخُذُ لَكَ أَفْخَرَ ٱلْأَطْيَابِ: مُرًّا قَاطِرًا خَمْسَ مِئَةِ شَاقِلٍ، وَقِرْفَةً عَطِرَةً نِصْفَ ذَلِكَ: مِئَتَيْنِ وَخَمْسِينَ، وَقَصَبَ ٱلذَّرِيرَةِ مِئَتَيْنِ وَخَمْسِينَ،

“Take the best quality spices: 500 shekels of liquid myrrh, 250 shekels of sweet-smelling cinnamon, 250 shekels of aromatic reed,

٢٤ 24 وَسَلِيخَةً خَمْسَ مِئَةٍ بِشَاقِلِ ٱلْقُدْسِ، وَمِنْ زَيْتِ ٱلزَّيْتُونِ هِينًا.

500 shekels of cassia, (weights using the sanctuary shekel standard), and a hin of olive oil.

٢٥ 25 وَتَصْنَعُهُ دُهْنًا مُقَدَّسًا لِلْمَسْحَةِ. عِطْرَ عِطَارَةٍ صَنْعَةَ ٱلْعَطَّارِ. دُهْنًا مُقَدَّسًا لِلْمَسْحَةِ يَكُونُ.

Mix these together into holy anointing oil, an aromatic blend like the product of an expert perfumer. Use it as holy anointing oil.

٢٦ 26 وَتَمْسَحُ بِهِ خَيْمَةَ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ، وَتَابُوتَ ٱلشَّهَادَةِ،

Use it to anoint the Tent of Meeting, the Ark of the Testimony,

٢٧ 27 وَٱلْمَائِدَةَ وَكُلَّ آنِيَتِهَا، وَٱلْمَنَارَةَ وَآنِيَتَهَا، وَمَذْبَحَ ٱلْبَخُورِ،

the table and all its equipment, the lampstand and its equipment, the altar of incense,

٢٨ 28 وَمَذْبَحَ ٱلْمُحْرَقَةِ وَكُلَّ آنِيَتِهِ، وَٱلْمِرْحَضَةَ وَقَاعِدَتَهَا.

the altar of burnt offering and all its utensils, and the basin plus its stand.

٢٩ 29 وَتُقَدِّسُهَا فَتَكُونُ قُدْسَ أَقْدَاسٍ. كُلُّ مَا مَسَّهَا يَكُونُ مُقَدَّسًا.

Dedicate them so that they will be especially holy. Whatever touches them will become holy.

٣٠ 30 وَتَمْسَحُ هَارُونَ وَبَنِيهِ وَتُقَدِّسُهُمْ لِيَكْهَنُوا لِي.

Anoint Aaron and his sons too and dedicate them to serve as priests for me.

٣١ 31 وَتُكَلِّمُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلًا: يَكُونُ هَذَا لِي دُهْنًا مُقَدَّسًا لِلْمَسْحَةِ فِي أَجْيَالِكُمْ.

Tell the Israelites, ‘This is to be my holy anointing oil for all generations to come.

٣٢ 32 عَلَى جَسَدِ إِنْسَانٍ لَا يُسْكَبُ، وَعَلَى مَقَادِيرِهِ لَا تَصْنَعُوا مِثْلَهُ. مُقَدَّسٌ هُوَ، وَيَكُونُ مُقَدَّسًا عِنْدَكُمْ.

Don't use it on ordinary people and don't make anything like it using the same formula. It is holy, and you must treat it as being holy.

٣٣ 33 كُلُّ مَنْ رَكَّبَ مِثْلَهُ وَمَنْ جَعَلَ مِنْهُ عَلَى أَجْنَبِيٍّ يُقْطَعُ مِنْ شَعْبِهِ».

Anyone who mixes anointing oil like it, or puts it on someone other than a priest, will be expelled from their people.’”

٣٤ 34 وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «خُذْ لَكَ أَعْطَارًا: مَيْعَةً وَأَظْفَارًا وَقِنَّةً عَطِرَةً وَلُبَانًا نَقِيًّا. تَكُونُ أَجْزَاءً مُتَسَاوِيَةً،

The Lord told Moses, “Take equal amounts of these aromatic spices: balsam resin, onycha, galbanum, and pure frankincense.

٣٥ 35 فَتَصْنَعُهَا بَخُورًا عَطِرًا صَنْعَةَ ٱلْعَطَّارِ، مُمَلَّحًا نَقِيًّا مُقَدَّسًا.

Add some salt and make pure and holy incense blended like the product of an expert perfumer.

٣٦ 36 وَتَسْحَقُ مِنْهُ نَاعِمًا، وَتَجْعَلُ مِنْهُ قُدَّامَ ٱلشَّهَادَةِ فِي خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ حَيْثُ أَجْتَمِعُ بِكَ. قُدْسَ أَقْدَاسٍ يَكُونُ عِنْدَكُمْ.

Grind some of it into powder and place it in front of the Ark of the Testimony in the Tent of Meeting, where I will meet with you. It shall be especially holy to you.

٣٧ 37 وَٱلْبَخُورُ ٱلَّذِي تَصْنَعُهُ عَلَى مَقَادِيرِهِ لَا تَصْنَعُوا لِأَنْفُسِكُمْ. يَكُونُ عِنْدَكَ مُقَدَّسًا لِلرَّبِّ.

Don't make for yourselves any incense like it using the same formula. You are to consider this incense as holy to the Lord.

٣٨ 38 كُلُّ مَنْ صَنَعَ مِثْلَهُ لِيَشُمَّهُ يُقْطَعُ مِنْ شَعْبِهِ».

Anyone who makes incense like this for themselves to enjoy will be expelled from their people.”
