[31] Say to the Israelites, ‘This is to be my sacred anointing oil for the generations to come. [32] Do not pour it on anyone else’s body and do not make any other oil using the same formula. It is sacred, and you are to consider it sacred. [33] Whoever makes perfume like it and puts it on anyone other than a priest must be cut off from their people.’ ” [34] Then the LORD said to Moses, “Take fragrant spices—gum resin, onycha and galbanum—and pure frankincense, all in equal amounts, [35] and make a fragrant blend of incense, the work of a perfumer. It is to be salted and pure and sacred. [36] Grind some of it to powder and place it in front of the ark of the covenant law in the tent of meeting, where I will meet with you. It shall be most holy to you. [37] Do not make any incense with this formula for yourselves; consider it holy to the LORD. [38] Whoever makes incense like it to enjoy its fragrance must be cut off from their people.”
