⁷ “Aaron must burn fragrant incense^(A) 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.^(A)

⁷ and tomorrow put burning coals^(A) and incense^(B) in them before the Lord. The man the Lord chooses^(C) will be the one who is holy.^(D) You Levites have gone too far!”

¹⁸ So each of them took his censer,^(A) put burning coals and incense in it, and stood with Moses and Aaron at the entrance to the tent of meeting.

⁴⁶ Then Moses said to Aaron, “Take your censer^(A) and put incense in it, along with burning coals from the altar, and hurry to the assembly^(B) to make atonement^(C) for them. Wrath has come out from the Lord;^(D) the plague^(E) has started.”
