Leviticus 8

1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:

And the Lord said to Moses,

2 Tolle Aaron cum filiis suis, vestes eorum, et unctionis oleum, vitulum pro peccato, duos arietes, canistrum cum azymis,

Take Aaron, and his sons with him, and the robes and the holy oil and the ox of the sin-offering and the two male sheep and the basket of unleavened bread;

3 et congregabis omnem cœtum ad ostium tabernaculi.

And let all the people come together at the door of the Tent of meeting.

4 Fecit Moyses ut Dominus imperaverat. Congregataque omni turba ante fores tabernaculi,

And Moses did as the Lord said, and all the people came together at the door of the Tent of meeting.

5 ait: Iste est sermo, quem iussit Dominus fieri.

And Moses said to the people, This is what the Lord has given orders to be done.

6 Statimque obtulit Aaron et filios eius. Cumque lavisset eos,

Then Moses took Aaron and his sons; and after washing them with water,

7 vestivit pontificem subucula linea, accingens eum balteo, et induens eum tunica hyacinthina, et desuper humerale imposuit,

He put the coat on him, making it tight with its band, and then the robe, and over it the ephod, with its band of needlework to keep it in place.

8 quod astringens cingulo aptavit rationali, in quo erat Doctrina et Veritas.

And he put the priest's bag on him, and in the bag he put the Urim and Thummim.

9 Cidari quoque texit caput: et super eam, contra frontem, posuit laminam auream consecratam in sanctificatione, sicut præceperat ei Dominus.

And on his head he put the head-dress, and in front of the head-dress the plate of gold, the holy crown, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

10 Tulit et unctionis oleum, quo linivit tabernaculum cum omni supellectili sua.

And Moses took the holy oil and put it on the House and on all the things in it, to make them holy.

11 Cumque sanctificans aspersisset altare septem vicibus, unxit illud, et omnia vasa eius, labrumque cum basi sua sanctificavit oleo.

Seven times he put oil on the altar and on all its vessels, and on the washing-basin and its base, to make them holy.

12 Quod fundens super caput Aaron, unxit eum, et consecravit:

And some of the oil he put on Aaron's head, to make him holy.

13 filios quoque eius oblatos vestivit tunicis lineis, et cinxit balteis, imposuitque mitras, ut iusserat Dominus.

Then he took Aaron's sons, clothing them with the coats, and putting the bands round them, and the head-dresses on their heads, as the Lord had given him orders.

14 Obtulit et vitulum pro peccato. cumque super caput eius posuisset Aaron, et filii eius manus suas,

And he took the ox of the sin-offering: and Aaron and his sons put their hands on the head of the ox,

15 immolavit eum: hauriens sanguinem, et tincto digito, tetigit cornua altaris per gyrum. quo expiato et sanctificato, fudit reliquum sanguinem ad fundamenta eius.

And he put it to death; and Moses took the blood and put it on the horns of the altar and round it with his finger, and made the altar clean, draining out the blood at the base of the altar; so he made it holy, taking away what was unclean.

16 Adipem vero qui erat super vitalia, et reticulum iecoris, duosque renunculos, cum arvinulis suis adolevit super altare:

And he took all the fat on the inside parts, and the fat on the liver, and the two kidneys with their fat, to be burned on the altar;

17 vitulum cum pelle, et carnibus, et fimo, cremans extra castra, sicut præceperat Dominus.

But the ox, with its skin and its flesh and its waste, was burned with fire outside the tent-circle, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

18 Obtulit et arietem in holocaustum: super cuius caput cum imposuissent Aaron et filii eius manus suas,

And he put the male sheep of the burned offering before the Lord, and Aaron and his sons put their hands on its head,

19 immolavit eum, et fudit sanguinem eius per circuitum altaris.

And he put it to death; and Moses put some of the blood on and round the altar.

20 Ipsumque arietem in frusta concidens, caput eius, et artus, et adipem adolevit igni,

And when the sheep had been cut into parts, the head and the parts and the fat were burned by Moses.

21 lotis prius intestinis et pedibus. totumque simul arietem incendit super altare, eo quod esset holocaustum suavissimi odoris Domino, sicut præceperat ei.

And the inside parts and the legs were washed with water and all the sheep was burned by Moses on the altar; it was a burned offering for a sweet smell: it was an offering made by fire to the Lord, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

22 Obtulit et arietem secundum, in consecratione sacerdotum: posueruntque super caput eius Aaron et filii eius manus suas.

And he put the other sheep before the Lord, the sheep with which they were made priests; and Aaron and his sons put their hands on the head of the sheep,

23 quem cum immolasset Moyses, sumens de sanguine eius, tetigit extremum auriculæ dextræ Aaron, et pollicem manus eius dextræ, similiter et pedis.

And he put it to death; and Moses took some of the blood and put it on the point of Aaron's right ear and on the thumb of his right hand and on the great toe of his right foot.

24 Obtulit et filios Aaron. cumque de sanguine arietis immolati tetigisset extremum auriculæ singulorum dextræ, et pollices manus ac pedis dextri, reliquum fudit super altare per circuitum:

Then he took Aaron's sons, and Moses put some of the blood on the point of their right ears and on the thumbs of their right hands and on the great toes of their right feet: and Moses put the blood on and round the altar.

25 adipem vero, et caudam, omnemque pinguedinem quæ operit intestina, reticulumque iecoris, et duos renes cum adipibus suis, et armo dextro separavit.

And he took the fat, and the fat tail, and the fat on the inside parts, and the fat on the liver, and the two kidneys with their fat, and the right leg;

26 Tollens autem de canistro azymorum, quod erat coram Domino, panem absque fermento, et collyridam conspersam oleo, laganumque posuit super adipes, et armum dextrum,

And out of the basket of unleavened bread which was before the Lord he took one unleavened cake, and one cake of bread with oil on it, and one thin cake, and put them on the fat and on the right leg:

27 tradens simul omnia Aaron et filiis eius. Qui postquam levaverunt ea coram Domino,

And he put them all on the hands of Aaron and on the hands of his sons, waving them for a wave offering before the Lord.

28 rursum suscepta de manibus eorum, adolevit super altare holocausti, eo quod consecrationis esset oblatio, in odorem suavitatis, sacrificii Domino.

And Moses took them from their hands, and they were burned on the altar on the burned offering, as a priest's offering for a sweet smell, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

29 Tulitque pectusculum elevans illud coram Domino, de ariete consecrationis in partem suam, sicut præceperat ei Dominus.

And Moses took the breast, waving it for a wave offering before the Lord; it was Moses' part of the sheep of the priest's offering, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

30 Assumensque unguentum, et sanguinem qui erat in altari, aspersit super Aaron et vestimenta eius, et super filios illius ac vestes eorum.

And Moses took some of the holy oil and of the blood which was on the altar and put it on Aaron and on his robes, and on his sons and on his sons' robes; and made Aaron holy, and his robes and his sons and his sons' robes with him.

31 Cumque sanctificasset eos in vestitu suo, præcepit eis, dicens: Coquite carnes ante fores tabernaculi, et ibi comedite eas. panes quoque consecrationis edite, qui positi sunt in canistro, sicut præcepit mihi Dominus, dicens: Aaron et filii eius comedent eos:

And Moses said to Aaron and to his sons, The flesh is to be cooked in water at the door of the Tent of meeting, and there you are to take it as food, together with the bread in the basket, as I have given orders, saying, It is the food of Aaron and his sons.

32 quidquid autem reliquum fuerit de carne et panibus, ignis absumet.

And that which is over of the flesh and of the bread is to be burned with fire.

33 De ostio quoque tabernaculi non exibitis septem diebus, usque ad diem quo complebitur tempus consecrationis vestræ. septem enim diebus finitur consecratio:

And you are not to go out from the door of the Tent of meeting for seven days, till the days for making you priest are ended; for this will be the work of seven days.

34 sicut et impræsentiarum factum est, ut ritus sacrificii compleretur.

What has been done this day, has been ordered by the Lord to take away your sin.

35 Die ac nocte manebitis in tabernaculo observantes custodias Domini, ne moriamini: sic enim mihi præceptum est.

And you are to keep watch for the Lord at the door of the Tent of meeting day and night for seven days, so that death may not come to you: for so he has given me orders.

36 Feceruntque Aaron et filii eius cuncta quæ locutus est Dominus per manum Moysi.

And Aaron and his sons did all the things about which the Lord had given orders through Moses.
