1 “You are to make an altar for the burning of incense; make it of acacia wood.
2 It must be square, 18 inches long and 18 inches wide; it must be 36 inches high. Its horns must be of one piece.
3 Overlay its top, all around its sides, and its horns with pure gold; make a gold molding all around it.
4 Make two gold rings for it under the molding on two of its sides; put these on opposite sides of it to be holders for the poles to carry it with.
5 Make the poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold.
6 “You are to place the altar in front of the veil by the ark of the testimony — in front of the mercy seat that is over the testimony — where I will meet with you.
