Exodus 30:11-13

Revised Geneva Translation

¹¹ Then, the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

¹² “When you take the census of the children of Israel, after their number, then every man shall give a ransom for his life to the LORD when numbered, so that there is no plague among them when you count them.

¹³ “Every man who goes into the number shall give this: half a shekel, after the shekel of the Sanctuary (a shekel is twenty gerahs). The half- shekel shall be an offering to the LORD.
