New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

³⁴ The Lord said to Moses: Take sweet spices, stacte, and onycha, and galbanum, sweet spices with pure frankincense (an equal part of each), ³⁵ and make an incense blended as by the perfumer, seasoned with salt, pure and holy; ³⁶ and you shall beat some of it into powder, and put part of it before the covenant^[a] in the tent of meeting where I shall meet with you; it shall be for you most holy.
