Aaron and his sons are to use the water to wash their hands and feet
20
before they go into the Tent or approach the altar to offer the food offering. Then they will not be killed.
21
They must wash their hands and feet, so that they will not die. This is a rule which they and their descendants are to observe forever."
22
The Lord said to Moses,
1
23
"Take the finest spices - 12 pounds of liquid myrrh, 6 pounds of sweet-smelling cinnamon, 6 pounds of sweet-smelling cane,
24
and 12 pounds of cassia (all weighed according to the official standard). Add one gallon of olive oil,
25
and make a sacred anointing oil, mixed like perfume.
26
Use it to anoint the Tent of my presence, the Covenant Box,
27
the table and all its equipment, the lampstand and its equipment, the altar for burning incense,
28
the altar for burning offerings, together with all its equipment, and the washbasin with its base.
29
Dedicate these things in this way, and they will be completely holy, and anyone or anything that touches them will be harmed by the power of its holiness.
