Exodus 30:34–38 · Berean Standard Bible

34 The LORD also said to Moses, “Take fragrant spices—gum resin, onycha, galbanum, and pure frankincense—in equal measures,

35 and make a fragrant blend of incense, the work of a perfumer, seasoned with salt, pure and holy.

36 Grind some of it into fine powder and place it in front of the Testimony in the Tent of Meeting, where I will meet with you. It shall be most holy to you.

37 You are never to use this formula to make incense for yourselves; you shall regard it as holy to the LORD.

38 Anyone who makes something like it to enjoy its fragrance shall be cut off from his people.”
