Leviticus 24:1-9 ▼

1 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

2 |Command the children of Israel, that they bring to you pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually.

3 Outside of the veil of the Testimony, in the Tent of Meeting, shall Aaron keep it in order from evening to morning before the LORD continually: it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations.

4 He shall keep in order the lamps on the pure gold lampstand before the LORD continually.

5 |You shall take fine flour, and bake twelve loaves of it: two tenth parts of an ephah shall be in one loaf.

6 You shall set them in two rows, six on a row, on the pure gold table before the LORD.

7 You shall put pure frankincense on each row, that it may be to the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire to the LORD.

8 Every Sabbath day he shall set it in order before the LORD continually. It is on the behalf of the children of Israel an everlasting covenant.

9 It shall be for Aaron and his sons; and they shall eat it in a holy place: for it is most holy to him of the offerings of the LORD made by fire by a perpetual statute.|
