Exodus 30:13
←Back to VersesThis they shall give, every one that passeth among them that are numbered, half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary: (a shekel is twenty gerahs:) an half shekel shall be the offering of the LORD.
Every person counted must give half a shekel, following the sanctuary's shekel value (which is 20 gerahs); this half shekel is the offering to the Lord.
