4Under the edge on the two opposite sides, you are to make two gold rings, to take the rods for lifting it.
5And make these rods of the same wood, plating them with gold.
6And let it be placed in front of the veil before the ark of the law, before the cover which is over the law, where I will come face to face with you.
7And on this altar sweet spices are to be burned by Aaron every morning when he sees to the lights.
8And every evening, when he puts the lights up in their places, the spices are to be burned, a sweet-smelling smoke going up before the Lord from generation to generation for ever.
9No strange perfume, no burned offering or meal offering, and no drink offering is to be offered on it.
10And once every year Aaron is to make its horns clean: with the blood of the sin-offering he is to make it clean once every year from generation to generation: it is most holy to the Lord.
