Leviticus 24:5-9
Christian Standard Bible
5 “Take fine flour and bake it into twelve loaves;(A) each loaf is to be made with four quarts.[a] 6 Arrange them in two rows, six to a row, on the pure gold table(B) before the Lord. 7 Place pure frankincense(C) near each row, so that it may serve as a memorial portion(D) for the bread and a food offering(E) to the Lord. 8 The bread is to be set out before the Lord every Sabbath day as a permanent covenant(F) obligation on the part of the Israelites. 9 It belongs to Aaron and his sons, who are to eat it in a holy place, for it is the holiest portion for him from the food offerings to the Lord; this is a permanent rule.”

Leviticus 24:5-9
New International Version
5 “Take the finest flour and bake twelve loaves of bread,(A) using two-tenths of an ephah[a](B) for each loaf. 6 Arrange them in two stacks, six in each stack, on the table of pure gold(C) before the Lord. 7 By each stack put some pure incense(D) as a memorial[b] portion(E) to represent the bread and to be a food offering presented to the Lord. 8 This bread is to be set out before the Lord regularly,(F) Sabbath after Sabbath,(G) on behalf of the Israelites, as a lasting covenant. 9 It belongs to Aaron and his sons,(H) who are to eat it in the sanctuary area,(I) because it is a most holy(J) part of their perpetual share of the food offerings presented to the Lord.”
