Leviticus 24:5-9

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

The Bread for the Tabernacle

⁵ “You shall take choice flour and bake twelve loaves of it; two-tenths of an ephah shall be in each loaf.^{(A) 6} You shall place them in two rows, six in a row, on the table of pure gold before the Lord.^{[a](B) 7} You shall put pure frankincense with each row, to be a token offering for the bread, as an offering by fire^[b] to the Lord. ⁸ Every Sabbath day Aaron shall set them in order before the Lord regularly as a commitment of the Israelites, as a covenant forever.^{(C) 9} They shall be for Aaron and his descendants, who shall eat them in a holy place, for they are most holy portions for him from the offerings by fire^[c] to the Lord, a perpetual due.”^(D)
