Y tomarás flor de harina, y cocerás de ella doce tortas; cada torta será de dos décimas.

Y las pondrás en dos órdenes, seis en cada orden, sobre la mesa limpia delante del SEÑOR.

Pondrás también sobre cada orden incienso puro, y servirá al pan por olor, y perfume al SEÑOR.

Cada día de sábado lo pondrá en orden delante del SEÑOR siempre; pacto sempiterno de los hijos de Israel.

Y será de Aarón y de sus hijos, los cuales lo comerán en el lugar santo; porque es cosa santísima para él, de las ofrendas encendidas al SEÑOR, por fuero perpetuo.

“Take the finest flour and bake twelve loaves of bread,(A) using two-tenths of an ephah[a](B) for each loaf. Arrange them in two stacks, six in each stack, on the table of pure gold(C) before the Lord. By each stack put some pure incense(D) as a memorial[b] portion(E) to represent the bread and to be a food offering presented to the Lord. This bread is to be set out before the Lord regularly,(F) Sabbath after Sabbath,(G) on behalf of the Israelites, as a lasting covenant. It belongs to Aaron and his sons,(H) who are to eat it in the sanctuary area,(I) because it is a most holy(J) part of their perpetual share of the food offerings presented to the Lord.”

The Bread of the Tabernacle

“And you shall take fine flour and bake twelve (A)cakes with it. Two-tenths of an ephah shall be in each cake. You shall set them in two rows, six in a row, (B)on the pure gold table before the Lord. And you shall put pure frankincense on each row, that it may be on the bread for a (C)memorial, an offering made by fire to the Lord. (D)Every Sabbath he shall set it in order before the Lord continually, being taken from the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant. And (E)it shall be for Aaron and his sons, (F)and they shall eat it in a holy place; for it is most holy to him from the offerings of the Lord made by fire, by a perpetual statute.”
