Exodus 30:1-10

EJ2000(i) 1 ¶ In the same manner thou shalt make an altar to burn incense upon; of cedar wood shalt thou make it. 2 Its length shall be a cubit and its width a cubit; it shall be square and its height two cubits; its horns shall be of the same. 3 And thou shalt cover it with pure gold, its top and its sides round about, and its horns; and thou shalt make unto it a moulding of gold round about. 4 And two golden rings shalt thou make to it under its moulding by its two corners on both sides for places for the staves to bear it with. 5 And thou shalt make the staves of cedar wood and cover them with gold. 6 And thou shalt put it before the veil that is by the ark of the testimony, before the seat of reconciliation that is over the testimony, where I will testify unto thee of myself. 7 And Aaron shall burn sweet incense thereon every morning; when he dresses the lamps, he shall burn it. 8 And when Aaron lights the lamps at evening, he shall burn incense upon it continually before the LORD throughout your ages. 9 Ye shall offer no strange incense thereon nor burnt sacrifice nor present; neither shall ye pour drink offering thereon. 10 And Aaron shall make reconciliation upon the horns of it once a year with the blood of the reconciliation for sin; once a year shall he make reconciliation upon it throughout your ages; it shall be most holy unto the LORD.
