Exodus 30:18–28

¹⁸Thou shalt also make a laver of copper, and its stand of copper, for washing; and thou shalt put it between the tent of meeting and the altar, and shalt put water in it. ¹⁹And Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet out of it. ²⁰When they go into the tent of meeting, they shall wash with water, that they may not die; or when they come near to the altar to serve, to burn an offering by fire to Jehovah. ²¹And they shall wash their hands and their feet, that they may not die; and it shall be an everlasting statute for them, for him and for his seed throughout their generations.

²²And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, ²³And thou, take best spices—of liquid myrrh five hundred shekels, and of sweet cinnamon the half—two hundred and fifty, and of sweet myrtle two hundred and fifty, ²⁴and of cassia five hundred, after the shekel of the sanctuary, and of olive oil a hin; ²⁵and make of it an oil of holy ointment, a perfume of perfumery after the work of the perfumer: it shall be the holy anointing oil. ²⁶And thou shalt anoint the tent of meeting with it, and the ark of the testimony, ²⁷and the table and all its utensils, and the lamp-stand and its utensils, and the altar of incense, ²⁸and the altar of burnt-offering and all its utensils, and the laver and its stand.
