The Altar of Incense

1 “Moreover, you shall make (A)an altar as a place for burning incense; you shall make it of acacia wood. 2 Its length shall be a (a)cubit, and its width a cubit, it shall be square, and its height shall be two cubits; its horns shall be (b)of one piece with it. 3 You shall overlay it with pure gold, its top and its (c)sides all around, and its horns; and you shall make a gold molding all around for it. 4 You shall make two gold rings for it under its molding; you shall make them on its two side walls—on (d)opposite sides—and (e)they shall be holders for poles with which to carry it. 5 You shall make the poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold.
