Exodus 30:6-8

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁶ Put the altar in front of the canopy which ⌞hangs⌟ over the ark containing the words of my promise. I will meet with you there in front of the throne of mercy that is on the ark.

⁷ “Aaron must burn sweet-smelling incense on this altar every morning when he takes care of the lamps. ⁸ Also, when Aaron lights the lamps at dusk, he must burn incense. For generations to come an incense offering must burn constantly in the Lord’s presence.
