17And Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

18You shall make a bronze basin, with its stand of bronze, for washing; and you shall place it between the tent of meeting and the altar, and you shall put water there.

19Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet from it.

20When they enter the tent of meeting, they shall wash with water, so that they may not die; or when they come near the altar to minister, to burn a food offering to Yahweh,

21They shall wash their hands and their feet, so that they may not die. This shall be a permanent statute for them, for him and for his offspring throughout their generations.
