Exodus 30:34-38

The Voice

Eternal One: Gather three aromatic spices—stacte, onycha, galbanum—and mix them with pure frankincense in equal measure. ³⁵ Have a perfumer take this mixture and blend it carefully with salt in order to create a pure and sacred incense. ³⁶ Grind it into a fine powder, and place some of it in front of the covenant chest in the congregation tent where I will meet with you. It will be most holy to you. ³⁷ Do not attempt to make incense for yourselves with the same ingredients in the same proportion. You must regard this as perfectly sacred to Me. ³⁸ Whoever makes an incense like it and uses it for themselves will be cut off from the community.
