Exodus 30:12-14
Legacy Standard Bible
12 “When you take (A)a [a]census of the sons of Israel [b]to number them, then each one of them shall give (B)a price of atonement for [c]himself to Yahweh when you [d]number them, so that there will be no plague among them when you [e]number them. 13 This is what everyone who [f]is numbered shall give: half a [g]shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary ((C)the shekel is twenty [h]gerahs), half a shekel as a [i]contribution to Yahweh. 14 Everyone who [j]is numbered, from twenty years old and over, shall give the [k]contribution to Yahweh.
