9 Non offerite sopra esso alcun profumo strano, nè olocausto, nè offerta; e non ispandete alcuno spargimento sopra esso.

10 E faccia Aaronne, una volta l’anno, purgamento de’ peccati sopra le corna di esso; faccia quel purgamento una volta l’anno, per le vostre età, sopra esso, col sangue del sacrificio de’ purgamenti, fatto per lo peccato. Questo Altare sia una cosa santissima al Signore.

11 IL Signore parlò ancora a Mosè, dicendo:
