< Leviticus 9 >
1 And it came to pass on the eighth day that Moses called Aaron and his sons, and the elders of Israel;
And when the eighth day was come, Moses called Aaron and his sons, and the ancients of Israel, and said to Aaron:
2 And he said unto Aaron, Take unto thyself a young calf for a sin-offering, and a ram for a burnt-offering, without blemish, and bring them near before the Lord.
Take of the herd a calf for sin, and a ram for a holocaust, both without blemish, and offer them before the Lord.
3 And unto the children of Israel shalt thou speak, saying, Take ye a he-goat for a sin-offering; and a calf and a sheep, both of the first year, without blemish, for a burnt-offering;
And to the children of Israel thou shalt say: Take ye a he goat for sin, and a calf, and a lamb, both of a year old, and without blemish for a holocaust,
4 Also a bullock and a ram for peace-offerings, to sacrifice before the Lord, and a meat-offering mingled with oil; for this day the Lord will appear unto you.
Also a bullock and a ram for peace offerings: and immolate them before the Lord, offering for the sacrifice of every one of them flour tempered with oil; for today the Lord will appear to you.
5 And they brought that which Moses had commanded before the tabernacle of the congregation: and all the congregation drew near and stood before the Lord.
They brought therefore all things that Moses had commanded before the door of the tabernacle: where when all the multitude stood,
6 And Moses said, This thing which the Lord hath commanded shall ye do: and then will the glory of the Lord appear unto you.
Moses said: This is the word, which the Lord hath commanded: do it, and his glory will appear to you.
7 And Moses said unto Aaron, Draw near unto the altar, and prepare thy sin-offering, and thy burnt-offering, and make an atonement for thyself, and for the people; and prepare the offering of the people, and make an atonement for them; as the Lord hath commanded.
And he said to Aaron: Approach to the altar, and offer sacrifice for thy sin: offer the holocaust, and pray for thyself and for the people: and when thou hast slain the people’s victim, pray for them, as the Lord hath commanded.
8 And Aaron drew near unto the altar; and he slew the calf of the sin-offering, which was for himself.
And forthwith Aaron, approaching to the altar, immolated the calf for his sin:
9 And the sons of Aaron brought the blood unto him; and he dipped his finger in the blood, and put it upon the horns of the altar; and the [remaining] blood he poured out at the bottom of the altar.
And his sons brought him the blood of it: and he dipped his finger therein, and touched the horns of the altar, and poured the rest at the foot thereof.
10 And the fat, and the kidneys, and the midriff from the liver of the sin-offering, he burnt upon the altar; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
And the fat, and the little kidneys, and the caul of the liver, which are for sin, he burnt upon the altar, as the Lord had commanded Moses:
11 And the flesh and the hide he burnt with fire without the camp.
But the flesh and skins thereof he burnt with fire without the camp.
12 And he slew the burnt-offering; and the sons of Aaron presented unto him the blood, and he sprinkled it upon the altar round about.
He immolated also the victim of holocaust: and his sons brought him the blood thereof, which he poured round about on the altar.
13 And the burnt-offering they presented unto him, in its proper pieces, together with the head: and he burnt them upon the altar.
And the victim being cut into pieces, they brought to him the head and all the members, all which he burnt with fire upon the altar,
14 And he washed the inwards and the legs; and he burnt them upon the burnt-offering on the altar.
Having first washed the entrails and the feet with water.
15 And he brought near the people's offering; and he took the goat of the sin-offering which belonged to the people, and slew it, and made atonement with its blood, as the first.
Then offering for the sin of the people, he slew the he goat: and expiating the altar,
16 And he brought near the burnt-offering, and offered it according to the prescribed manner.
He offered the holocaust:
17 And he brought near the meat-offering, and he filled his hand thereof, and burnt it upon the altar, beside the burnt-sacrifice of the morning.
Adding in the sacrifice the libations, which are offered withal, and burning them upon the altar, besides the ceremonies of the morning holocaust.
18 He slew also the bullock and the ram, the sacrifice of peace-offering which belonged to the people: and the sons of Aaron presented unto him the blood, and he sprinkled it upon the altar round about,
He immolated also the bullock and the ram, the peace offerings of the people: and his sons brought him the blood, which he poured upon the altar round about.
19 Also the fat of the bullock, and of the ram, the rump, and that which covereth the inwards, and the kidneys, and the midriff of the liver;
The fat also of the bullock, and the rump of the ram, and the two little kidneys, with their fat, and the caul of the liver,
20 And they put these pieces of fat upon the breasts, and he burnt the fat upon the altar;
They put upon the breasts. And after the fat was burnt upon the altar,
21 And with the breasts and the right shoulder Aaron made a waving before the Lord; as Moses had commanded.
Aaron separated their breasts, and the right shoulders, elevating them before the Lord, as Moses had commanded.
22 And Aaron lifted up his hands toward the people, and blessed them; and came down after he had offered the sin-offering, and the burnt-offering, and peace-offerings.
And stretching forth his hands to the people, he blessed them. And so the victims for sin, and the holocausts, and the peace offerings being finished, he came down.
23 And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of the congregation, and came then out, and blessed the people: and the glory of the Lord appeared unto all the people.
And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of the testimony, and afterwards came forth and blessed the people. And the glory of the Lord appeared to all the multitude:
24 And there came forth a fire from before the Lord, and consumed upon the altar the burnt-offering and the fat; and when all the people saw this, they shouted, and fell on their faces.
And behold a fire, coming forth from the Lord, devoured the holocaust, and the fat that was upon the altar: which when the multitude saw, they praised the Lord, falling on their faces.
