34Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Take for yourself spices: stacte and onycha and galbanum, spices, and pure frankincense; they shall be in equal parts.”

35And you shall make it into incense, a perfume blended by the work of a perfumer, salted, pure, holy.

36And you shall grind some of it very fine, and put some of it before the testimony in the tent of meeting, where I will meet with you. It shall be most holy for you.
