Leviticus 9

1 And it cometh to pass on the eighth day, Moses hath called for Aaron and for his sons, and for the elders of Israel,

On the eighth day Moses called Aaron and his sons and the elders of Israel.

2 and he saith unto Aaron, 'Take to thyself a calf, a son of the herd, for a sin-offering, and a ram for a burnt-offering, perfect ones, and bring near before Jehovah.

He said to Aaron, “Take a calf from the herd for a sin offering, and a ram without blemish for a burnt offering, and offer them before Yahweh.

3 'And unto the sons of Israel thou dost speak, saying, Take ye a kid of the goats for a sin-offering, and a calf, and a lamb, sons of a year, perfect ones, for a burnt-offering,

You must speak to the people of Israel and say, 'Take a male goat for a sin offering and a calf and a lamb, both a year old and without blemish, for a burnt offering;

4 and a bullock and a ram for peace-offerings, to sacrifice before Jehovah, and a present mixed with oil; for to-day Jehovah hath appeared unto you.'

also take an ox and a ram for peace offerings to sacrifice before Yahweh, and a grain offering mixed with oil, because today Yahweh will appear to you.'”

5 And they take that which Moses hath commanded unto the front of the tent of meeting, and all the company draw near and stand before Jehovah;

So they brought all that Moses commanded to the tent of meeting, and all the assembly of Israel approached and stood before Yahweh.

6 and Moses saith, 'This [is] the thing which Jehovah hath commanded; do [it], and the honour of Jehovah doth appear unto you.'

Then Moses said, “This is what Yahweh commanded you to do, so that his glory may appear to you.”

7 And Moses saith unto Aaron, 'Draw near unto the altar, and make thy sin-offering, and thy burnt-offering, and make atonement for thyself, and for the people, and make the offering of the people, and make atonement for them, as Jehovah hath commanded.'

Moses said to Aaron, “Come near the altar and offer your sin offering and burnt offering, and make atonement for yourself and for the people, and offer the sacrifice for the people to make atonement for them, as Yahweh has commanded.”

8 And Aaron draweth near unto the altar, and slaughtereth the calf of the sin-offering, which [is] for himself;

So Aaron went near the altar and killed the calf for the sin offering, which was for himself.

9 and the sons of Aaron bring the blood near unto him, and he dippeth his finger in the blood, and putteth [it] on the horns of the altar, and the blood he hath poured out at the foundation of the altar;

The sons of Aaron presented the blood to him, and he dipped his finger into it and put it on the horns of the altar; then he poured out the blood at the base of the altar.

10 and the fat, and the kidneys, and the redundance of the liver, of the sin-offering, he hath made a perfume on the altar, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses;

However, he burned the fat, the kidneys, and the covering of the liver on the altar as a sin offering, as Yahweh had commanded Moses.

11 and the flesh and the skin he hath burnt with fire, at the outside of the camp.

The meat and the hide he burned outside the camp.

12 And he slaughtereth the burnt-offering, and the sons of Aaron have presented unto him the blood, and he sprinkleth it on the altar round about;

Aaron killed the burnt offering, and his sons gave him the blood, which he splashed against every side of the altar.

13 and the burnt-offering they have presented unto him, by its pieces, and the head, and he maketh perfume on the altar;

Then they gave him the burnt offering, piece by piece, together with the head, and he burned them on the altar.

14 and he washeth the inwards and the legs, and maketh perfume for the burnt-offering on the altar.

He washed the inner parts and the legs and burned them on top of the burnt offering on the altar.

15 And he bringeth near the offering of the people, and taketh the goat of the sin-offering which [is] for the people, and slaughtered it, and maketh it a sin-offering, like the first;

Aaron presented the people's sacrifice—a goat, then took it as the sacrifice for their sin and killed it; he sacrificed it for sin, as he had done with the first goat.

16 and he bringeth near the burnt-offering, and maketh it, according to the ordinance;

He presented the burnt offering and offered it as Yahweh had commanded.

17 and he bringeth near the present, and filleth his palm with it, and maketh perfume on the altar, apart from the burnt-offering of the morning.

He presented the grain offering; he filled his hand with it and burned it on the altar, along with the morning's burnt offering.

18 And he slaughtereth the bullock and the ram, a sacrifice of the peace-offerings, which [are] for the people, and sons of Aaron present the blood unto him (and he sprinkleth it on the altar round about),

He killed also the ox and the ram, the sacrifice for the peace offering, which was for the people. Aaron's sons gave him the blood, which he sprinkled against every side of the altar.

19 and the fat of the bullock, and of the ram, the fat tail, and the covering [of the inwards], and the kidneys, and the redundance above the liver,

However, they cut out the fat of the bull and the ram, the fat tail, the fat that covers the inner parts, the kidneys, and the covering of the liver.

20 and they set the fat on the breasts, and he maketh perfume with the fat on the altar;

They took the parts that were cut out and put these on the breasts, and then Aaron burned the fat on the altar.

21 and the breasts, and the right leg hath Aaron waved — a wave-offering before Jehovah, as He hath commanded Moses.

Aaron waved the breasts and the right thigh as a wave offering before Yahweh, as Moses had commanded.

22 And Aaron lifteth up his hand towards the people, and blesseth them, and cometh down from making the sin-offering, and the burnt-offering, and the peace-offerings.

Then Aaron lifted up his hands toward the people and blessed them; then he came down from offering the sin offering, the burnt offering, and the peace offering.

23 And Moses goeth in — Aaron also — unto the tent of meeting, and they come out, and bless the people, and the honour of Jehovah appeareth unto all the people;

Moses and Aaron went into the tent of meeting, then came out again and blessed the people, and the glory of Yahweh appeared to all the people.

24 and fire cometh out from before Jehovah, and consumeth on the altar the burnt-offering, and the fat; and all the people see, and cry aloud, and fall on their faces.

Fire came out from Yahweh and consumed the burnt offering and the fat on the altar. When all the people saw this, they shouted and lay facedown.
