Exodus 30:12-14

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹² When you take the census of the Israelites, every man shall give a ransom for himself to the Lord when you number them, that no plague may fall upon them when you number them.^(A)

¹³ This is what everyone shall give as he joins those already numbered: a half shekel, in terms of the sanctuary shekel, a shekel being twenty gerahs; a half shekel as an offering to the Lord.

¹⁴ Everyone from twenty years old and upward, as he joins those already numbered, shall give this offering to the Lord.^(B)
