Parallel

Exodus 30:13

Jewish Publication Society 1917 · Berean Standard Bible

This they shall give, every one that passeth among them that are numbered, half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary—the shekel is twenty gerahs—half a shekel for an offering to the LORD.
Everyone who crosses over to those counted must pay a half shekel (note: A half shekel is approximately 0.2 ounces or 5.7 grams; also in verse 15.), according to the sanctuary shekel, which weighs twenty gerahs (note: 20 gerahs is equivalent to one shekel (approximately 0.4 ounces or 11.4 grams).). This half shekel is an offering to the LORD.
