A reading from the Book of Exodus to Moses the Prophet, may his blessings be with us all. Amen.
(30:17-30)

من سفر الخروج من توراة موسي النبي بركته تكون مع جميعنا أمين.

Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: "You shall also make a laver of bronze, with its base also of bronze, for washing. You shall put it between the tabernacle of meeting and the altar. And you shall put water in it,
For Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet in water from it. When they go into the tabernacle of meeting, or when they come near the altar to minister, to burn an offering made by fire to the Lord, they shall wash with water, lest they die. So they shall wash their hands and their feet, lest they die.
And it shall be a statute forever to them--to him and his descendants throughout their generations." Moreover the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: "Also take for yourself quality spices--five hundred shekels of liquid myrrh, half as much sweet-smelling cinnamon (two hundred and fifty shekels), two hundred and fifty shekels of sweet-smelling cane,
five hundred shekels of cassia, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, and a hin of olive oil. And you shall make from these a holy anointing oil, an ointment compounded according to the art of the perfumer. It shall be a holy anointing oil. With it you shall anoint the tabernacle of meeting and the ark of the Testimony; the table and all its utensils, the lampstand and its utensils, and the altar of incense; the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the laver and its base. You shall consecrate them, that they may be most holy; whatever touches them must be holy. And you shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that they may minister to Me as priests.
Glory be to the Holy Trinity, our God forever and ever. Amen.

وَكَلَّمْ الرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلاً: «وَتَصْنَعُ مِرْحَضَةً مِنْ نُحَاسٍ، وَقَاعِدَتَهَا مِنْ نُحَاسٍ، لِلاغْتِسَالِ. وَتَجْعَلُهَا بَيْنَ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ وَالْمَذْبَحِ، وَتَجْعَلُ فِيهَا مَاءً.
فَيَغْسِلُ هَارُونُ وَبَنُوهُ أَيْدِيَهُمْ وَأَرْجُلَهُمْ مِنْهَا. عِنْدَ دُخُولِهِمْ إِلَى خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ يَغْسِلُونَ بِمَاءٍ لِئَلاَّ يَمُوتُوا، أَوْ عِنْدَ اقْتِرَابِهِمْ إِلَى الْمَذْبَحِ لِلْخِدْمَةِ لِيُوقِدُوا وَقُودًا لِلرَّبِّ. يَغْسِلُونَ أَيْدِيَهُمْ وَأَرْجُلَهُمْ لِئَلاَّ يَمُوتُوا.
وَيَكُونُ لَهُمْ فَرِيضَةً أَبَدِيَّةً لَهُ وَلِنَسْلِهِ فِي أَجْيَالِهِمْ». وَكَلَّمَ الرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلاً: «وَأَنْتَ تَأْخُذُ لَكَ أَفْخَرَ الأَطْيَابِ: مُرًّا قَاطِرًا خَمْسَ مِئَةِ شَاقِل، وَقِرْفَةً عَطِرَةً نِصْفَ ذلِكَ: مِئَتَيْنِ وَخَمْسِينَ، وَقَصَبَ الذَّرِيرَةِ مِئَتَيْنِ وَخَمْسِينَ،
وَسَلِيخَةً خَمْسَ مِئَةٍ بِشَاقِلِ الْقُدْسِ، وَمِنْ زَيْتِ الزَّيْتُونِ هِينًا. وَتَصْنَعُهُ دُهْنًا مُقَدَّسًا لِلْمَسْحَةِ. عِطْرَ عِطَارَةٍ صَنْعَةَ الْعَطَّارِ. دُهْنًا مُقَدَّسًا لِلْمَسْحَةِ يَكُونُ. وَتَمْسَحُ بِهِ خَيْمَةَ الاجْتِمَاعِ، وَتَابُوتَ الشَّهَادَةِ، وَالْمَائِدَةَ وَكُلَّ آنِيَتِهَا، وَالْمَنَارَةَ وَآنِيَتَهَا، وَمَذْبَحَ الْبَخُورِ، وَمَذْبَحَ الْمُحْرَقَةِ وَكُلَّ آنِيَتِهِ، وَالْمِرْحَضَةَ وَقَاعِدَتَهَا. وَتُقَدِّسُهَا فَتَكُونُ قُدْسَ أَقْدَاسٍ. كُلُّ مَا مَسَّهَا يَكُونُ مُقَدَّسًا. وَتَمْسَحُ هَارُونَ وَبَنِيهِ وَتُقَدِّسُهُمْ لِيَكْهَنُوا لِي.
مجداً للثالوث الأقدس إلهنا إلي الأبد.
