Exodus 30:34-38
New Living Translation
The Incense
34 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Gather fragrant spices—resin droplets, mollusk shell, and galbanum—and mix these fragrant spices with pure frankincense, weighed out in equal amounts. 35 Using the usual techniques of the incense maker, blend the spices together and sprinkle them with salt to produce a pure and holy incense. 36 Grind some of the mixture into a very fine powder and put it in front of the Ark of the Covenant,[a] where I will meet with you in the Tabernacle. You must treat this incense as most holy. 37 Never use this formula to make this incense for yourselves. It is reserved for the Lord, and you must treat it as holy. 38 Anyone who makes incense like this for personal use will be cut off from the community.”

English Standard Version
34 The Lord said to Moses, (A)“Take sweet spices, stacte, and onycha, and galbanum, sweet spices with pure frankincense (of each shall there be an equal part), 35 and make an (B)incense blended as by the (C)perfumer, (D)seasoned with salt, pure and holy. 36 You shall beat some of it very small, and put part of it before the testimony in the tent of meeting (E)where I shall meet with you. (F)It shall be most holy for you. 37 And the incense that you shall make (G)according to its composition, you shall not make for yourselves. It shall be for you holy to the Lord. 38 (H)Whoever makes any like it to use as perfume shall be cut off from his people.”
