24 The oil for the lamps. 5 The showbread.  14 The blasphemer shall be stoned. 17 He that killeth shall be killed.

And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

[a]Command the children of Israel that they bring unto thee pure oil olive beaten, for the light, to cause the lamps to burn continually.

Without the veil [b]of the Testimony, in the Tabernacle of the Congregation, shall Aaron dress them, both even and morning before the Lord always: this shall be a law forever through your generations.

He shall dress the lamps upon the (A)pure Candlestick before the Lord perpetually.

¶ Also thou shalt take fine flour, and bake twelve (B)cakes thereof: two [c]tenth deals shall be in one cake.

And thou shalt set them in two rows, six in a row upon the pure table before the Lord.

Thou shalt also put pure incense upon the rows, that [d]instead of the bread it may be for a remembrance, and an offering made by fire unto the Lord.

Every Sabbath he shall put them in rows before the Lord evermore, receiving them of the children of Israel for an everlasting Covenant.

(C)And the bread shall be Aaron’s and his sons’, and they shall eat it in the holy place: for it is most holy unto him of the offerings of the Lord made by fire by a perpetual ordinance.
