Leviticus 24:4-14

4 He shall keep in order the lamps on the pure lampstand before Yahweh continually.
5 You shall take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes of it: two tenth parts [of an ephah] shall be in one cake.
6 You shall set them in two rows, six on a row, on the pure table before Yahweh.
7 You shall put pure frankincense on each row, that it may be to the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire to Yahweh.
8 Every Sabbath day he shall set it in order before Yahweh continually; it is on the behalf of the children of Israel, an everlasting covenant.
9 It shall be for Aaron and his sons; and they shall eat it in a holy place: for it is most holy to him of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire by a perpetual statute.
10 The son of an Israelite woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel; and the son of the Israelite woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp:
11 and the son of the Israelite woman blasphemed the Name, and cursed; and they brought him to Moses. His mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.
12 They put him in custody, that it might be declared to them at the mouth of Yahweh.
13 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
14 Bring forth him who has cursed outside of the camp; and let all who heard him lay their hands on his head, and let all the congregation stone him.

INTRODUCTION TO LEVITICUS 24
