Leviticus 8

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,

2 Take Aaron, with his sons, their vestments, and the oil of anointing, a calf for sin, two rams, and a basket with unleavened bread,

"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 gather together all the assembly at the door of the tabernacle.

and assemble all the congregation at the door of the Tent of Meeting."

4 And Moses did as the Lord had commanded. And when all the crowd was gathered together before the entrance of the tabernacle,

Moses did as YHWH commanded him; and the congregation was assembled at the door of the Tent of Meeting.

5 he said: “This is the word that the Lord has ordered to be done.”

Moses said to the congregation, "This is the thing which YHWH has commanded to be done."

6 And immediately, he brought forward Aaron and his sons. And when he had washed them,

Moses brought Aaron and his sons, and washed them with water.

7 he vested the high priest with the linen undergarment, wrapped him with the wide belt, and clothed him with the hyacinth tunic, and over it he imposed the ephod.

He put the coat 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 And tying it to the belt, he fitted it to the breastplate, on which was Doctrine and Truth.

He placed the breastplate on him; and in the breastplate he put the Urim and the Thummim.

9 Also, he wrapped the headdress on his head, and over it, opposite the forehead, he placed the plate of gold, consecrated with sanctification, just as the Lord had instructed him.

He set the turban on his head; and on the turban, in front, he set the golden plate, the holy crown; as YHWH commanded Moses.

10 He also took up the oil of anointing, with which he anointed the tabernacle, along with all of its articles.

Moses took the anointing oil, and anointed the tabernacle and all that was in it, and sanctified them.

11 And when he had sprinkled the altar seven times to sanctify it, he anointed it and all its vessels. And the washtub with its base he sanctified with the oil.

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 And pouring the oil over Aaron’s head, he anointed and consecrated him.

He poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron's head, and anointed him, to sanctify him.

13 Likewise, after he had offered his sons, he vested them with linen tunics, and wrapped them with wide belts, and placed headdresses on them, just as the Lord had ordered.

Moses brought Aaron's sons, and clothed them with coats, and tied sashes on them, and put headbands on them; as YHWH commanded Moses.

14 He also offered the calf for sin. And when Aaron and his sons had placed their hands upon its head,

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 immolated it. And drawing the blood, and dipping his finger in it, he touched the horns of the altar all around. And when it was expiated and sanctified, he poured out the remainder of the blood at its base.

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 Yet truly, the fat which was on the vital organs, and the mesh of the liver, and the two little kidneys with their fat, he burned upon the altar.

He took all the fat that was on the entrails, and the cover of the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat; and Moses burned it on the altar.

17 And the calf with the skin, and the flesh, and the dung, he burned beyond the camp, just as the Lord had instructed.

But the bull, and its skin, and its flesh, and its dung, he burned with fire outside the camp; as YHWH commanded Moses.

18 He also offered a ram as a holocaust. And when Aaron and his sons had imposed their hands upon its head,

He presented the ram of the burnt offering: and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram.

19 he immolated it, and he poured out its blood around the altar.

He killed it; and Moses sprinkled the blood around on the altar.

20 And cutting the ram into pieces, he burned its head, and the limbs, and the fat in the fire,

He cut the ram into its pieces; and Moses burned the head, and the pieces, and the fat.

21 having first washed the intestines and the feet. And then he burned the whole of the ram upon the altar, because it was a holocaust of most sweet odor to the Lord, just as he had instructed him.

He washed the entrails 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 YHWH; as YHWH commanded Moses.

22 He also offered the second ram, as a consecration of priests. And Aaron and his sons placed their hands upon its head.

He presented the other ram, the ram of consecration: and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram.

23 And when Moses had immolated it, taking up some of its blood, he touched the tip of Aaron’s right ear, and the thumb of his right hand, and similarly also his foot.

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 also offered the sons of Aaron. And when, from the blood of the ram which was immolated, he had touched the tip of the right ear of each one, and the thumbs of their right hands, as well as their feet, he poured out the remainder upon the altar all around.

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 Yet truly, the fat, and the rump, and all the fat that covers the intestines, and the mesh of the liver, and the two kidneys with their fat, and the right shoulder, he separated.

He took the fat, and the fat tail, and all the fat that was on the entrails, and the cover of the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat, and the right thigh;

26 Then, taking bread without leaven from the basket of unleavened bread, which was before the Lord, and a cake sprinkled with oil, and a wafer, he placed them upon the fat and the right shoulder,

and out of the basket of unleavened bread, that was before YHWH, he took one unleavened cake, and one cake of oiled bread, and one wafer, and placed them on the fat, and on the right thigh.

27 delivering all these to Aaron and his sons. And when they had lifted them up in the sight of the Lord,

He put all these in Aaron's hands and in his sons' hands, and waved them for a wave offering before YHWH.

28 he received them again from their hands, and he burned them upon the altar of holocaust, because it was an oblation of consecration, as a sweet odor of sacrifice to the Lord.

Moses took them from their hands, and burned them on the altar on the burnt offering. They were a consecration for a pleasant aroma. It was an offering made by fire to YHWH.

29 And he took his portion from the ram of consecration, and he lifted up its breast in the sight of the Lord, just as the Lord had instructed him.

Moses took the breast, and waved it for a wave offering before YHWH. It was Moses' portion of the ram of consecration, as YHWH commanded Moses.

30 And taking up the ointment, and the blood that was on the altar, he sprinkled it over Aaron and his vestments, and over his sons and their vestments.

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 And when he had sanctified them with their vestments, he instructed them, saying: “Cook the flesh before the entrance of the tabernacle, and eat it there. Likewise, eat the loaves of consecration, which have been placed in the basket, just as the Lord instructed me, saying: ‘Aaron and his sons shall eat them.’

Moses said to Aaron and to his sons, "Boil the flesh 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 Then whatever will remain of the flesh and the loaves shall be consumed with fire.

What remains of the flesh and of the bread you shall burn with fire.

33 Also, you shall not exit from the door of the tabernacle for seven days, until the day on which the time of your consecration shall be completed. For in seven days the consecration is finished,

You shall not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting seven days, until the days of your consecration are fulfilled: for he shall consecrate you seven days.

34 even as it has begun at this present time, so that the rite of the sacrifice might be accomplished.

What has been done this day, so YHWH has commanded to do, to make atonement for you.

35 Day and night you shall remain in the tabernacle, observing the watches of the Lord, otherwise you shall die. For so it has been commanded to me.”

You shall stay at the door of the Tent of Meeting day and night seven days, and keep YHWH's command, that you do not die: for so I am commanded."

36 And Aaron and his sons did everything that the Lord spoke by the hand of Moses.

Aaron and his sons did all the things which YHWH commanded by Moses.
