1 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Take Aaron and his sons with him, and
the garments, and the anointing oil, and
the bull of the sin offering, and the two
rams, and the basket of unleavened bread;
3 and assemble all the congregation at
the door of the Tent of Meeting.”
4 Moses did as the LORD commanded
him; and the congregation was assembled
at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
5 Moses said to the congregation, “This is
the thing which the LORD has commanded
to be done.” 6 Moses brought Aaron and his sons, and
washed them with water.
7 He put the tunic on him, tied the sash
on him, clothed him with the robe, put the
ephod on him, and he tied the skillfully woven
band of the ephod on him and fastened
it to him with it.
8 He placed the breastplate on him. He
put the Urim and Thummim in the breastplate.
9 He set the turban on his head. He set the
golden plate, the holy crown, on the front
of the turban, as the LORD commanded
Moses.
10 Moses took the anointing oil, and
anointed the tabernacle and all that was in
it, and sanctified them.
11 He sprinkled it on the altar seven
times, and anointed the altar and all its
vessels, and the basin and its base, to sanctify
them.
12 He poured some of the anointing oil
on Aaron’s head, and anointed him, to
sanctify him.
13 Moses brought Aaron’s sons, and
clothed them with tunics, and tied sashes
on them, and put headbands on them, as
the LORD commanded Moses.
14 He brought the bull of the sin offering,
and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on
the head of the bull of the sin offering.
15 He killed it; and Moses took the blood,
and put it around on the horns of the altar
with his finger, and purified the altar, and
poured out the blood at the base of the
altar, and sanctified it, to make atonement
for it.
16 He took all the fat that was on the
innards, and the cover of the liver, and
the two kidneys, and their fat; and Moses
burned it on the altar.
17 But the bull, and its skin, and its meat,
and its dung, he burned with fire outside
the camp, as the LORD commanded Moses.
18 He presented the ram of the burnt
offering. Aaron and his sons laid their
hands on the head of the ram.
19 He killed it; and Moses sprinkled the
blood around on the altar.
20 He cut the ram into its pieces; and
Moses burned the head, and the pieces,
and the fat.
21 He washed the innards and the legs
with water; and Moses burned the whole
ram on the altar. It was a burnt offering
for a pleasant aroma. It was an offering
made by fire to the LORD, as the LORD
commanded Moses.
22 He presented the other ram, the ram of
consecration. Aaron and his sons laid their
hands on the head of the ram.
23 He killed it; and Moses took some of its
blood, and put it on the tip of Aaron’s right
ear, and on the thumb of his right hand,
and on the great toe of his right foot.
24 He brought Aaron’s sons; and Moses
put some of the blood on the tip of their
right ear, and on the thumb of their
right hand, and on the great toe of their
right foot; and Moses sprinkled the blood
around on the altar.
25 He took the fat, the fat tail, all the fat
that was on the innards, the cover of the
liver, the two kidneys and their fat, and the
right thigh;
26 and out of the basket of unleavened
bread that was before the LORD, he took
one unleavened cake, one cake of oiled
bread, and one wafer, and placed them on
the fat and on the right thigh.
27 He put all these in Aaron’s hands and
in his sons’ hands, and waved them for a
wave offering before the LORD.
28 Moses took them from their hands,
and burned them on the altar on the burnt
offering. They were a consecration offering
for a pleasant aroma. It was an offering
made by fire to the LORD.
29 Moses took the breast, and waved it
for a wave offering before the LORD. It was
Moses’ portion of the ram of consecration,
as the LORD commanded Moses.
30 Moses took some of the anointing oil,
and some of the blood which was on the
altar, and sprinkled it on Aaron, on his
garments, and on his sons, and on his sons’
garments with him, and sanctified Aaron,
his garments, and his sons, and his sons’
garments with him.
31 Moses said to Aaron and to his sons,
“Boil the meat at the door of the Tent of
Meeting, and there eat it and the bread
that is in the basket of consecration, as I
commanded, saying, ‘Aaron and his sons
shall eat it.’ 32 What remains of the meat and of the
bread you shall burn with fire.
33 You shall not go out from the door of
the Tent of Meeting for seven days, until
the days of your consecration are fulfilled:
for he shall consecrate you seven days.
34 What has been done today, so the
LORD has commanded to do, to make
atonement for you.
35 You shall stay at the door of the Tent
of Meeting day and night seven days, and
keep the LORD’s command, that you don’t
die: for so I am commanded.” 36 Aaron and his sons did all the things
which the LORD commanded by Moses.
