Exodus 30:1-9 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

1. And thou shalt make an altar for the burning of incense: of acacia-wood shalt thou make it;

2. a cubit the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof--square shall it be; and two cubits its height; of itself shall be its horns.

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 upon it a border of gold round about.

4. And two rings of gold shalt thou make for it under its border; by its two corners shalt thou make them, on the two sides thereof; and they shall be for receptacles for the staves, with which to carry it.

5. And thou shalt make the staves of acacia-wood, and overlay them with gold.

6. And thou shalt put it in front of the veil which is before the ark of the testimony in front of the mercy-seat which is over the testimony, where I will meet with thee.

7. And Aaron shall burn thereon fragrant incense: every morning, when he dresseth the lamps, he shall burn the incense.

8. And when Aaron lighteth the lamps between the two evenings, he shall burn the incense--a continual incense before Jehovah throughout your generations.

9. Ye shall offer up no strange incense thereon, nor burnt-offering, nor oblation; neither shall ye pour drink-offering thereon.
