The Sanctuary’s Lamp and Bread
1 Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
2
"Command the {Israelites} that they should bring pure olive oil [from] beaten [olives] for the light to {present} a lamp continually.
3
Aaron shall arrange for it {outside} the curtain of the testimony in [the] tent of assembly from evening until morning {before} Yahweh continually; [it shall be] a {lasting statute} throughout your generations.
4
On the pure [golden] lampstand he shall arrange for the lamps {before} Yahweh continually.
5
"And you shall take finely milled flour, and you shall bake [with] it twelve ring-shaped bread cakes: each one [shall be] two-tenths [of an ephah].
6
And you shall place them [in] two rows, six [to the] row, on the pure [gold] table {before} Yahweh.
7
And you shall put pure frankincense on each row so that it shall be for the bread as a memorial offering, an offering made by fire for Yahweh.
8
{On every Sabbath} he shall arrange it in rows {before} Yahweh continually; [they are] from the {Israelites} [as] an everlasting covenant.
9
And it shall be for Aaron and for his sons, and they shall eat it in a holy place, because it [is] {a most holy thing} for him from Yahweh's offerings made by fire--a {lasting rule}."
