1. “You shall make an altar to burn incense on. You shall make it of acacia wood.
2. Its length shall be a cubit, and its width a cubit. It shall be square, and its height shall be two cubits. Its horns shall be of one piece with it.
3. You shall overlay it with pure gold, its top, its sides around it, and its horns; and you shall make a gold molding around it.
4. You shall make two golden rings for it under its molding; on its two ribs, on its two sides you shall make them; and they shall be for places for poles with which to bear it.
5. You shall make the poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold.
6. You shall put it before the veil that is by the ark of the covenant, before the mercy seat that is over the covenant, where I will meet with you.
