Leviticus 8

1 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:

The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

2 Take thou Aaron and his sons with him, and the garments, and the anointing oil, —and the sin-bearing bullock, and the two rams, and the basket of unleavened cakes;

“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 all the assembly, call thou together, —unto the entrance of the tent of meeting.

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

4 And Moses did, as Yahweh commanded him, —and the assembly was called together, unto the entrance of the tent of meeting.

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

5 Then said Moses unto the assembly, —This is the thing, which Yahweh hath commanded to be done.

Moses said to the congregation, “This is the thing which the LORD has commanded to be done.”

6 So Moses brought near Aaron and his sons, —and bathed them with water,

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

7 and put upon him the tunic and girded him with the band, and clothed him with the robe, and put upon him the ephod, and girded him with the curiously-woven band of the ephod, and bound it to him therewith;

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 and he put upon him the breastpiece, —and placed, in the breastpiece, the Lights and the Perfections;

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

9 and he put the turban upon his head, —and put upon the turban, on the forefront thereof the burnished plate of gold—the holy crown, As Yahweh commanded Moses.

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 And Moses took the anointing oil, and anointed the habitation and all that was therein, —and hallowed them;

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

11 and he sprinkled thereof upon the altar seven times, —and anointed the altar, and all the utensils thereof and the laver and its stand to hallow them

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 he poured of the anointing oil, upon the head of Aaron, —and anointed him, to hallow him.

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

13 And Moses brought near the sons of Aaron and clothed them with tunics and girded them with bands, and wrapped round for them turbans, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.

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 Then was led near the sin-bearing bullock, —and Aaron and his sons leaned their hands upon the head of the sin-bearing bullock,

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 Then was it slain, and Moses took the blood and put [thereof] upon the horns of the altar round about, with his finger, and cleansed the altar from sin, —and the [remainder of the] blood, poured he forth at the base of the altar, and hallowed it putting a propitiatory-covering thereupon.

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 And he took all the fat that was on the inwards, and the caul of the liver, and the two kidneys and their fat, —and Moses made a perfume at the altar.

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 bullock itself, and its skin and its flesh and its dung, consumed he with fire, outside the camp, —As Yahweh commanded Moses,

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 Then was brought near the ram for the ascending-sacrifice, —and Aaron and his sons leaned their hands upon the head of the ram;

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

19 and it was slain, —and Moses dashed the blood against the altar round about;

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

20 and the ram itself, was cut up into its pieces, —and Moses made a perfume with the head and with the pieces and with the fat;

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

21 but the inwards and the legs, were bathed in water, —and Moses made a perfume with the whole ram at the altar, an ascending-sacrifice, it was—for a satisfying odour an altar-flame, it was unto Yahweh, As Yahweh commanded Moses.

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 Then was brought near the second ram, the ram of installation, and Aaron and his sons leaned their hands upon the head of the ram;

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

23 and it was slain, and Moses took of the blood thereof, and put upon the tip of Aaron’s right ear, —and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right 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.

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 And he took the fat and the fat-tail, and all the fat that was on the inwards, and the caul of the liver, and the two kidneys and their fat, —and the right shoulder;

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-cakes that was before Yahweh, took he one round unleavened-cake and one round oil-cake, and one wafer, and put them upon the fat portions, and upon the right shoulder;

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 and placed the whole upon the opened palms of Aaron, and upon the opened palms of his sons, —and waved them as a wave-offering, before Yahweh.

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

28 And Moses took them from off their opened palms, and made a perfume at the altar upon the ascending-sacrifice, —an installation, they were for a satisfying odour, an altar-flame, it was unto Yahweh.

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 And Moses took the breast, and waved it as a wave-offering, before Yahweh, —of the ram of installation, unto Moses it belonged, as a portion, As Yahweh commanded Moses.

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 And Moses took of the anointing oil and of the blood that was upon the altar, and sprinkled upon Aaron, upon his garments, and upon his sons and upon the garments of his sons with him, —and hallowed Aaron, his garments, and his sons and the garments of his sons with him.

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 Moses said unto Aaron and unto his sons Boil ye the flesh, at the entrance of the tent of meeting, and there, shall ye eat it, and the bread which is in the basket of installation, —as I have been commanded, saying, Aaron and his sons, shall eat it.

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 But, that which is left of the flesh, and of the bread, with fire, shall ye consume.

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

33 And from the entrance of the tent of meeting, shall ye not go forth for seven days, until the day that filleth up the days of your installation, —because for seven days, will he install you:

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 as hath been done this day, [so] hath Yahweh commanded to be done, to put a propitiatory-covering over you.

What has been done today, so the LORD has commanded to do, to make atonement for you.

35 Even at the entrance of the tent of meeting, shall ye abide day and night for seven days, and shall keep the watch of Yahweh and shall not die, —for, so, am I commanded.

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 And Aaron and his sons did all the things which Yahweh had commanded through the mediation of Moses.

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