Exodus 30:6-10
New American Standard Bible
6 You shall put [a]this altar in front of the veil that is [b]near the ark of the testimony, in front of the [c](A)atoning cover that is over the ark of the testimony, where I will meet with you. 7 Aaron shall burn fragrant incense on it; he shall burn it every morning when he trims the lamps. 8 And when Aaron sets up the lamps at [d]twilight, he shall burn incense. There shall be perpetual incense before the Lord throughout your generations. 9 You shall not offer any [e]strange incense on [f]this altar, or burnt offering, or meal offering; and you shall not pour out a drink offering on it. 10 However, Aaron shall (B)make atonement on its horns once a year; he shall make atonement on it with the blood of the sin offering of atonement once a year throughout your generations. It is most 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.”
