Exodus 30:6-10
Holman Christian Standard Bible
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. 7 Aaron must burn fragrant incense on it; he must burn it every morning when he tends the lamps.(A) 8 When Aaron sets up the lamps at twilight, he must burn incense. There is to be an incense offering before the Lord throughout your generations. 9 You must not offer unauthorized incense on it,(B) or a burnt or grain offering; you are not to pour a drink offering on it.
10 “Once a year Aaron is to perform the purification rite[a] on the horns of the altar. Throughout your generations he is to perform the purification rite[b] for[c] it once a year, with the blood of the sin offering for atonement.(C) The altar is especially holy to the Lord.”

Exodus 30:6-10
New International Version
6 Put the altar in front of the curtain that shields the ark of the covenant law—before the atonement cover(A) that is over the tablets of the covenant law—where I will meet with you.
7 “Aaron must burn fragrant incense(B) on the altar every morning when he tends the lamps. 8 He must burn incense again when he lights the lamps at twilight so incense will burn regularly before the Lord for the generations to come.(C) 9 Do not offer on this altar any other incense(D) or any burnt offering or grain offering, and do not pour a drink offering on it. 10 Once a year(E) Aaron shall make atonement(F) on its horns. This annual atonement must be made with the blood of the atoning sin offering[a](G) for the generations to come.(H) It is most holy to the Lord.”
