Exodus 30:1-7

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

2a 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.

3And 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.

4And 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.

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

6And 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.

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