Verses 1–10
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee the finest and clearest oil of olives, to furnish the lamps continually,
3 Without the veil of the testimony in the tabernacle of the covenant. And Aaron shall set them from evening until morning before the Lord, by a perpetual service and rite in your generations.
4 They shall be set upon the most pure candlestick before the Lord continually.
5 Thou shalt take also fine flour, and shalt bake twelve loaves thereof, two tenths shall be in every loaf.
6 And thou shalt set them six and six, one against another, upon the most clean table before the Lord.
7 And thou shalt put upon them the clearest frankincense, that the bread may be for a memorial of the oblation of the Lord.
8 Every sabbath they shall be changed before the Lord: being received of the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant.
9 And they shall be Aaron's and his sons', that they may eat them in the holy place: because it is most holy of the sacrifices of the Lord by a perpetual right.
10 And behold there went out the son of a woman of Israel, whom she had of an Egyptian, among the children of Israel: and fell at words in the camp with a man of Israel.
