Exodus 30
1 “You shall also make an altar, for the burning of incense, from setim wood,
Facies quoque altare ad adolendum thymiama, de lignis setim,
2 having one cubit in length, and another in width, that is, four equal sides, and two cubits in height. Horns shall proceed from the same.
habens cubitum longitudinis, et alterum latitudinis, id est, quadrangulum, et duos cubitos in altitudine. Cornua ex ipso procedent.
3 And you shall clothe it with the purest gold, both its grating and the walls around it, and also the horns. And you shall make for it a crown of gold in a circle,
Vestiesque illud auro purissimo, tam craticulam eius, quam parietes per circuitum, et cornua. Faciesque ei coronam aureolam per gyrum,
4 and two gold rings under the crown on each side, so that the bars may be set in them and the altar may be carried.
et duos annulos aureos sub corona per singula latera, ut mittantur in eos vectes, et altare portetur.
5 Also, you shall make its bars of setim wood, and you shall overlay them with gold.
Ipsos quoque vectes facies de lignis setim, et inaurabis.
6 And you shall set the altar opposite the veil, which hangs in front of the ark of the testimony, before the propitiatory with which the testimony is covered, where I will speak to you.
Ponesque altare contra velum, quod ante arcum pendet testimonii coram propitiatorio quo tegitur testimonium, ubi loquar tibi.
7 And Aaron shall burn incense upon it, a sweet fragrance, in the morning. When he lights the lamps, he shall burn it.
Et adolebit incensum super eo Aaron, suave fragrans, mane. Quando componet lucernas, incendet illud:
8 And when he assembles them in the evening, he shall burn an everlasting incense before the Lord throughout your generations.
et quando collocabit eas ad vesperum, uret thymiama sempiternum coram Domino in generationes vestras.
9 You shall not offer upon it incense of another composition, nor an oblation, nor a victim; neither shall you offer libations.
Non offeretis super eo thymiama compositionis alterius, nec oblationem, et victimam, nec libabitis libamina.
10 And Aaron shall pray over its horns once a year, with the blood of what was offered for sin. And he shall make atonement over it in your generations. It shall be the Holy of holies to the Lord.”
Et deprecabitur Aaron super cornua eius semel per annum, in sanguine quod oblatum est pro peccato, et placabit super eo in generationibus vestris. Sanctum sanctorum erit Domino.
11 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
12 “When you have taken the sum of the sons of Israel, according to their number, each shall give a price for their souls to the Lord, and there will be no scourge among them, when they will be reviewed.
Quando tuleris summam filiorum Israel iuxta numerum, dabunt singuli pretium pro animabus suis Domino, et non erit plaga in eis, cum fuerint recensiti.
13 Then all those who pass shall give by name: one half shekel, according to the measure at the temple. A shekel has twenty obols. The half part of a shekel shall be offered to the Lord.
Hoc autem dabit omnis qui transit ad nomen, dimidium sicli iuxta mensuram templi. Siclus viginti obolos habet. Media pars sicli offeretur Domino.
14 He who has been numbered from twenty years and above shall give the price.
Qui habetur in numero, a viginti annis et supra, dabit pretium.
15 The rich shall not add to the half shekel, and the poor shall diminish nothing.
Dives non addet ad medium sicli, et pauper nihil minuet.
16 And the money received, which was collected from the sons of Israel, you shall deliver for the uses of the tabernacle of the testimony, so that it may be a memorial of them before the Lord, and he may act favorably toward their souls.”
Susceptamque pecuniam, quae collata est a filiis Israel, trades in usus tabernaculi testimonii, ut sit monumentum eorum coram Domino, et propitietur animabus eorum.
17 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
18 “You shall also make a bronze washtub with its base to wash in; and you shall place it between the tabernacle of the testimony and the altar. And when water has been added,
Facies et labrum aeneum cum basi sua ad lavandum: ponesque illud inter tabernaculum testimonii et altare. Et missa aqua,
19 Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and feet in it:
lavabunt in ea Aaron, et filii eius manus suas ac pedes,
20 when they enter the tabernacle of the testimony, and when they approach to the altar so as to offer incense to the Lord upon it,
quando ingressuri sunt tabernaculum testimonii, et quando accessuri sunt ad altare, ut offerant in eo thymiama Domino,
21 otherwise, they may die. This shall be an everlasting law to him, and to his offspring, throughout their successions.”
ne forte moriantur. legitimum sempiternum erit ipsi, et semini eius per successiones.
22 And the Lord spoke to Moses,
Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen,
23 saying: “Take for yourself aromatics: of the first and best myrrh, five hundred shekels, and of cinnamon half as much, that is, two hundred and fifty shekels; of sweet flag similarly two hundred and fifty,
dicens: Sume tibi aromata, primae myrrhae et electae quingentos siclos, et cinnamomi medium, id est, ducentos quinquaginta siclos, calami similiter ducentos quinquaginta,
24 but of cassia, five hundred shekels by the weight of the sanctuary, and of the oil of olives the measure of a hin.
casiae autem quingentos siclos in pondere sanctuarii, olei de olivetis mensuram hin:
25 And you shall make the holy oil of unction, an ointment composed with the skills of a perfumer,
faciesque unctionis oleum sanctum, unguentum compositum opere unguentarii,
26 and with it you shall anoint the tabernacle of the testimony, and the ark of the testament,
et unges ex eo tabernaculum testimonii, et arcam testamenti,
27 and the table with its vessels, and the lampstand and its utensils, the altars of incense
mensamque cum vasis suis, et candelabrum, et utensilia eius, altaria thymiamatis,
28 and of holocaust, and all the items that pertain to their rituals.
et holocausti, et universam supellectilem quae ad cultum eorum pertinet.
29 And you shall sanctify everything, and they shall be the Holy of holies. He who will touch them must be sanctified.
Sanctificabisque omnia, et erunt Sancta sanctorum: qui tetigerit ea, sanctificabitur.
30 You shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and you shall sanctify them, so that they may exercise the priesthood for me.
Aaron et filios eius unges, sanctificabisque eos, ut sacerdotio fungantur mihi.
31 Likewise, you shall say to the sons of Israel: ‘This oil of unction will be holy to me throughout your generations.
Filiis quoque Israel dices: Hoc oleum unctionis sanctum erit mihi in generationes vestras.
32 The flesh of man shall not be anointed from it, and you shall not make any similar compound, for it has been sanctified and it shall be holy to you.
Caro hominis non ungetur ex eo, et iuxta compositionem eius non facietis aliud, quia sanctificatum est, et sanctum erit vobis.
33 Whatever man will have composed such a thing and have given it to a stranger, he shall be exterminated from his people.’”
Homo quicumque tale composuerit, et dederit ex eo, alieno, exterminabitur de populo suo.
34 And the Lord said to Moses: “Take to yourself aromatics: stacte, and onycha, galbanum of sweet odor, and the clearest frankincense, all these shall be of equal weight.
Dixitque Dominus ad Moysen: Sume tibi aromata, stacten et onycha, galbanum boni odoris, et thus lucidissimum, aequalis ponderis erunt omnia:
35 And you shall make incense composed with the skills of a perfumer, diligently mixed, and pure, and most worthy of sanctification.
faciesque thymiama compositum opere unguentarii, mistum diligenter, et purum, et sanctificatione dignissimum.
36 And when you have crushed all these into a very fine powder, you shall place some of it before the tabernacle of the testimony, in the place where I will appear to you. The Holy of holies shall this incense be to you.
Cumque in tenuissimum pulverem universa contuderis, pones ex eo coram tabernaculo testimonii, in quo loco apparebo tibi. Sanctum sanctorum erit vobis thymiama.
37 You shall not make such a compound for your own uses, because it is holy to the Lord.
Talem compositionem non facietis in usus vestros, quia sanctum est Domino.
38 Whatever man will have made anything similar, so as to thoroughly enjoy its smell, he shall perish from his people.”
Homo quicumque fecerit simile, ut odore illius perfruatur, peribit de populis suis.
