Exodus 30:35-38
The Message
Holy Incense
34-38 God spoke to Moses: “Take fragrant spices—gum resin, onycha, galbanum—and add pure frankincense. Mix the spices in equal proportions to make an aromatic incense, the art of a perfumer, salted and pure—holy. Now crush some of it into powder and place some of it before The Testimony in the Tent of Meeting where I will meet with you; it will be for you the holiest of holy places. When you make this incense, you are not to copy the mixture for your own use. It’s holy to God; keep it that way. Whoever copies it for personal use will be excommunicated.”

Exodus 30:35-37
New International Version
35 and make a fragrant blend of incense,(A) the work of a perfumer.(B) It is to be salted and pure and sacred. 36 Grind some of it to powder and place it in front of the ark of the covenant law in the tent of meeting, where I will meet(C) with you. It shall be most holy(D) to you. 37 Do not make any incense with this formula for yourselves; consider it holy(E) to the Lord.
