As the sun shining upon the temple of the most High, and as the rainbow giving light in the bright clouds:
8
And as the flower of roses in the spring of the year, as lilies by the rivers of waters, and as the branches of the frankincense tree in the time of summer:
9
As fire and incense in the censer, and as a vessel of beaten gold set with all manner of precious stones:
10
And as a fair olive tree budding forth fruit, and as a cypress tree which groweth up to the clouds.

When he put on the robe of honour, and was clothed with the perfection of glory, when he went up to the holy altar, he made the garment of holiness honourable.
12

14
And finishing the service at the altar, that he might adorn the offering of the most high Almighty,

He stretched out his hand to the cup, and poured of the blood of the grape, he poured out at the foot of the altar a sweetsmelling savour unto the most high King of all.
16
Then shouted the sons of Aaron, and sounded the silver trumpets, and made a great noise to be heard, for a remembrance before the most High.
17
Then all the people together hasted, and fell down to the earth upon their faces to worship their Lord God Almighty, the most High.
