1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2 Instruct the sons of Israel, so that they may bring to you clear oil from the purest olives, in order to supply the lamps continuously

3 outside the veil of the testimony in the tabernacle of the covenant. And Aaron shall place these, from evening until morning, before the Lord, as a perpetual worship and ritual in your generations.

4 They shall be placed upon the most pure candlestick in the sight of the Lord always.

5 You shall also receive fine wheat flour, and you shall bake twelve loaves from it, each loaf of which shall have two-tenths.

6 And you shall arrange them, six on each side, upon the most pure table before the Lord.

7 And you shall place upon them the clearest frankincense, so that the bread may be a memorial of oblation for the Lord.

8 On each Sabbath, they shall be changed before the Lord, having been received from the sons of Israel as an everlasting covenant.
