Bread for the Tabernacle

“You shall take fine flour and bake twelve (A)loaves from it; two tenths of an ephah[a] shall be in each loaf. And you shall set them in two piles, six in a pile, (B)on the table of pure gold[b] before the Lord. And you shall put pure frankincense on each pile, that it may go with the bread as a memorial portion as a food offering to the Lord. (C)Every Sabbath day Aaron shall arrange it before the Lord regularly; it is from the people of Israel as a covenant forever. And (D)it shall be for Aaron and his sons, and (E)they shall eat it in a holy place, since it is for him a most holy portion out of the Lord's food offerings, a perpetual due.”
