And if thou make me an altar of stone, thou shalt not build it of hewn stones; for if thou lift up thy tool upon it, thou hast polluted it.

You shall not go up by steps to my altar, that your nakedness may not be exposed to it.’

Neither shalt thou go up by steps unto mine altar, that thy nakedness be not uncovered thereon.
