⁴ which had the ^(A)golden censer and ^(B)the ark of the covenant overlaid on all sides with gold, in which were ^(C)the golden pot that had the manna, ^(D)Aaron’s rod that budded, and ^(E)the tablets of the covenant;

³⁸ The censers of ^(A)these men who sinned ^[a]against their own souls, let them be made into hammered plates as a covering for the altar. Because they presented them before the Lord, therefore they are holy; ^(B)and they shall be a sign to the children of Israel.”

⁶ Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.

^2 (A)in which you once walked according to the ^[a]course of this world, according to ^(B)the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in ^(C)the sons of disobedience, ^3 (D)among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in ^(E)the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and ^(F)were by nature children of wrath, just as the others.
