1 And make an altar for burning incense: of acacia wood shalt thou make it. 2 A cubit its length, a cubit its breadth; it shall be four-square; and two cubits its height: its horns out of it. 3 And spread it over with pure gold its top, and its walls round about, and its horns: and make to it a gold wreath round about. 4 And two gold rings shalt thou make to it from under its crown, upon its two ribs, shalt thou make upon its two sides; and it was for inner parts for staves to lift it up by them. 5 And make staves of acacia wood, and spread them over with gold. 6 And give it before the vail that is upon the ark of the testimonies, before the cover which is upon the testimonies, where I will meet with thee there. 7 And Aaron to burn upon it incense of spices in the morning: in the morning in his adorning the lamps, he shall burn incense upon it. 8 And in Aaron's causing the lamps, to ascend between the two evenings, he shall burn incense upon it; continually before Jehovah for your generations.
