Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2
"Command the children of Israel that they bring to you pure oil of pressed olives for the light, to make the lamps burn continually.
3
Outside the veil of the Testimony, in the tabernacle of meeting, Aaron shall be in charge of it from evening until morning before the Lord continually; it shall be a statute forever in your generations.
4
He shall be in charge of the lamps on the pure gold lampstand before the Lord continually.
5
"And you shall take fine flour and bake twelve cakes with it. Two-tenths of an ephah shall be in each cake.
6
You shall set them in two rows, six in a row, on the pure gold table before the Lord.
7
And you shall put pure frankincense on each row, that it may be on the bread for a memorial, an offering made by fire to the Lord.
8
Every Sabbath he shall set it in order before the Lord continually, being taken from the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant.
9
And it shall be for Aaron and his sons, and they shall eat it in a holy place; for it is most holy to him from the offerings of the Lord made by fire, by a perpetual statute."

Now the son of an Israelite woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel; and this Israelite woman's son and a man of Israel fought each other in the camp.
