And thou shalt make aan altar to burn incense upon: of shittim wood shalt thou make it. 2 A cubit shall be the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof; foursquare shall it be: and two cubits shall be the height thereof: the horns thereof shall be bof the same. 3 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, the †top thereof, and the †sides thereof round about, and the horns thereof; and thou shalt make unto it a ccrown of gold round about. 4 And two golden rings shalt thou make to it under the crown of it, by the two †corners thereof, upon the two sides of it shalt thou make it; and they shall be for dplaces for the staves to bear it withal. 5 And thou shalt make the staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold. 6 And thou shalt put it before the vail that is by the ark of the testimony, before the emercy seat that is over the testimony, where I will meet with thee. 7 And Aaron shall burn thereon †sweet incense every morning: when fhe dresseth the lamps, he shall burn incense upon it. 8 And when Aaron ||lighteth the lamps †at even, he shall burn incense upon it, a perpetual incense before the Lord throughout your generations. 9 Ye shall offer no gstrange incense thereon, nor burnt sacrifice, nor meat offering; neither shall ye pour drink offering thereon. 10 And hAaron shall make an atonement upon the horns of it once in a year with the blood iof the sin offering of atonements: once in the year shall he make atonement upon it throughout your generations: it is most holy unto the Lord.
