1. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2. Command the children of Israel that they bring to you pure olive oil beaten for the lamp, to cause the lamps to burn continually.
3. Outside the veil of the sanctuary, in the tent of meeting, Aaron shall arrange it continually, from the evening until the morning before the Lord. It shall be a perpetual statute in your generations.
4. He shall arrange the lamps continually on the pure gold lampstand before the Lord.
5. You shall take wheat flour and bake twelve cakes. Two-tenths of an ephah shall be in each cake.
