Exodus 30:1-5

GOD’S WORD Translation

The Altar for Incense^(A)

30 ⌞The Lord continued,⌟ “Build an altar out of acacia wood for burning incense. ² Make it 18 inches square and 36 inches high. The horns and altar must be made out of one piece ⌞of wood⌟. ³ Cover all of it with pure gold—the top, the sides, and the horns. Put a gold molding around it. ⁴ Make two gold rings, and put them below the molding on opposite sides to hold the poles for carrying it. ⁵ Make the poles out of acacia wood, and cover them with gold.
