Leviticus 8
1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
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, the garments and the anointing oil, the bull for the sin offering, the two rams, and the basket of unleavened bread.
3 et congregabis omnem cœtum ad ostium tabernaculi.
Assemble all the assembly at the entrance to the tent of meeting.”
4 Fecit Moyses ut Dominus imperaverat. Congregataque omni turba ante fores tabernaculi,
So Moses did as Yahweh commanded him, and the assembly came together at the entrance to the tent of meeting.
5 ait: Iste est sermo, quem iussit Dominus fieri.
Then Moses said to the assembly, “This is what Yahweh has commanded to be done.”
6 Statimque obtulit Aaron et filios eius. Cumque lavisset eos,
Moses brought Aaron and his sons and washed them with water.
7 vestivit pontificem subucula linea, accingens eum balteo, et induens eum tunica hyacinthina, et desuper humerale imposuit,
He put on Aaron the tunic and tied the sash around his waist, clothed him with the robe and put the ephod on him, and then he tied the ephod around him with the finely-woven waistband and bound it to him.
8 quod astringens cingulo aptavit rationali, in quo erat Doctrina et Veritas.
He placed the breastpiece on him, and in the breastpiece he put the Urim and the Thummim.
9 Cidari quoque texit caput: et super eam, contra frontem, posuit laminam auream consecratam in sanctificatione, sicut præceperat ei Dominus.
He set the turban on his head, and on the turban, in front, he set the golden plate, the holy crown, as Yahweh had commanded him.
10 Tulit et unctionis oleum, quo linivit tabernaculum cum omni supellectili sua.
Moses took the anointing oil, anointed the tabernacle and everything in it and set them apart to Yahweh.
11 Cumque sanctificans aspersisset altare septem vicibus, unxit illud, et omnia vasa eius, labrumque cum basi sua sanctificavit oleo.
He sprinkled the oil on the altar seven times, and anointed the altar and all its utensils, and the washbasin and its base, to set them apart to Yahweh.
12 Quod fundens super caput Aaron, unxit eum, et consecravit:
He poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron's head and anointed him to set him apart.
13 filios quoque eius oblatos vestivit tunicis lineis, et cinxit balteis, imposuitque mitras, ut iusserat Dominus.
Moses brought Aaron's sons and clothed them with tunics. He tied sashes around their waists and wrapped linen cloth around their heads, as Yahweh had commanded him.
14 Obtulit et vitulum pro peccato. cumque super caput eius posuisset Aaron, et filii eius manus suas,
Moses brought the bull for the sin offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the bull that they had brought for the sin offering.
15 immolavit eum: hauriens sanguinem, et tincto digito, tetigit cornua altaris per gyrum. quo expiato et sanctificato, fudit reliquum sanguinem ad fundamenta eius.
He killed it, and he took the blood and put it on the horns of the altar with his finger, purified the altar, poured out the blood at the base of the altar, and set it apart for God in order to make atonement for it.
16 Adipem vero qui erat super vitalia, et reticulum iecoris, duosque renunculos, cum arvinulis suis adolevit super altare:
He took all the fat that was on the inner parts, the covering of the liver, and the two kidneys and their fat, and Moses burned it all on the altar.
17 vitulum cum pelle, et carnibus, et fimo, cremans extra castra, sicut præceperat Dominus.
But the bull, its hide, its meat, and its dung he burned outside the camp, as Yahweh had commanded him.
18 Obtulit et arietem in holocaustum: super cuius caput cum imposuissent Aaron et filii eius manus suas,
Moses presented the ram for the burnt offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram.
19 immolavit eum, et fudit sanguinem eius per circuitum altaris.
He killed it and sprinkled its blood against every side of the altar.
20 Ipsumque arietem in frusta concidens, caput eius, et artus, et adipem adolevit igni,
He cut the ram into pieces and burned the head and the pieces and the fat.
21 lotis prius intestinis et pedibus. totumque simul arietem incendit super altare, eo quod esset holocaustum suavissimi odoris Domino, sicut præceperat ei.
He washed the inner parts and the legs with water, and he burned the whole ram on the altar. It was a burnt offering and produced a sweet aroma, an offering made by fire to Yahweh as Yahweh had commanded Moses.
22 Obtulit et arietem secundum, in consecratione sacerdotum: posueruntque super caput eius Aaron et filii eius manus suas.
Then Moses presented the other ram, the ram of consecration, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram.
23 quem cum immolasset Moyses, sumens de sanguine eius, tetigit extremum auriculæ dextræ Aaron, et pollicem manus eius dextræ, similiter et pedis.
Aaron killed it, and Moses took some of its blood and put it on the tip of Aaron's right ear, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big 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:
He brought Aaron's sons, and he put some of the blood on the tip of their right ear, on the thumb of their right hand, and on the big toe of their right foot. Then Moses sprinkled its blood against every side of the altar.
25 adipem vero, et caudam, omnemque pinguedinem quæ operit intestina, reticulumque iecoris, et duos renes cum adipibus suis, et armo dextro separavit.
He took the fat, the fat tail, all the fat that was on the inner parts, the covering of the liver, the two kidneys and their fat, and the right thigh.
26 Tollens autem de canistro azymorum, quod erat coram Domino, panem absque fermento, et collyridam conspersam oleo, laganumque posuit super adipes, et armum dextrum,
Out of the basket of bread without yeast that was before Yahweh, he took one loaf without yeast, and one loaf of oiled bread, and one wafer, and placed them on the fat and on the right thigh.
27 tradens simul omnia Aaron et filiis eius. Qui postquam levaverunt ea coram Domino,
He put it all in the hands of Aaron and in the hands of his sons and waved them before Yahweh as a wave offering.
28 rursum suscepta de manibus eorum, adolevit super altare holocausti, eo quod consecrationis esset oblatio, in odorem suavitatis, sacrificii Domino.
Then Moses took them from off their hands and burned them on the altar for the burnt offering. They were a consecration offering and produced a sweet aroma. It was an offering made by fire to Yahweh.
29 Tulitque pectusculum elevans illud coram Domino, de ariete consecrationis in partem suam, sicut præceperat ei Dominus.
Moses took the breast and waved it as a wave offering to Yahweh. It was Moses' share of the ram for the priests' ordination, as Yahweh had commanded him.
30 Assumensque unguentum, et sanguinem qui erat in altari, aspersit super Aaron et vestimenta eius, et super filios illius ac vestes eorum.
Moses took some of the anointing oil and the blood that was on the altar; he sprinkled these on Aaron, on his clothes, on his sons, and on his sons' clothes with him. In this way he set apart Aaron and his clothes, and his sons and their clothes to Yahweh.
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:
So Moses said to Aaron and to his sons, “Boil the meat at the entrance to 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 will eat it.'
32 quidquid autem reliquum fuerit de carne et panibus, ignis absumet.
Whatever remains of the meat and of the bread you must burn.
33 De ostio quoque tabernaculi non exibitis septem diebus, usque ad diem quo complebitur tempus consecrationis vestræ. septem enim diebus finitur consecratio:
You must not go out from the entrance of the tent of meeting for seven days, until the days of your ordination are fulfilled. For Yahweh will consecrate you for seven days.
34 sicut et impræsentiarum factum est, ut ritus sacrificii compleretur.
What has been done this day— Yahweh has commanded to be done to make atonement for you.
35 Die ac nocte manebitis in tabernaculo observantes custodias Domini, ne moriamini: sic enim mihi præceptum est.
You will stay day and night for seven days at the entrance to the tent of meeting, and keep the command of Yahweh, so you will not die, because this is what I have been commanded.”
36 Feceruntque Aaron et filii eius cuncta quæ locutus est Dominus per manum Moysi.
So Aaron and his sons did all the things which Yahweh had commanded them through Moses.
