Leviticus 8
1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
Then 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, their garments, the anointing oil, the bull of the sin offering, the two rams, and the basket of unleavened bread,
3 et congregabis omnem coetum ad ostium tabernaculi.
and assemble the whole congregation at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.”
4 Fecit Moyses ut Dominus imperaverat. Congregataque omni turba ante fores tabernaculi,
So Moses did as the LORD had commanded him, and the assembly gathered at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
5 ait: Iste est sermo, quem iussit Dominus fieri.
And Moses said to them, “This is what the LORD has commanded to be done.”
6 Statimque obtulit Aaron et filios eius. Cumque lavisset eos,
Then Moses presented 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 the tunic on Aaron, tied the sash around him, clothed him with the robe, and put the ephod on him. He tied the woven band of the ephod around him and fastened it to him.
8 quod astringens cingulo aptavit rationali, in quo erat Doctrina et Veritas.
Then he put the breastpiece on him and placed the Urim and Thummim in the breastpiece.
9 Cidari quoque texit caput: et super eam, contra frontem, posuit laminam auream consecratam in sanctificatione, sicut praeceperat ei Dominus.
Moses also put the turban on Aaron’s head and set the gold plate, the holy diadem, on the front of the turban, as the LORD had commanded him.
10 Tulit et unctionis oleum, quo linivit tabernaculum cum omni supellectili sua.
Next, Moses took the anointing oil and anointed the tabernacle and everything in it; and so he consecrated them.
11 Cumque sanctificans aspersisset altare septem vicibus, unxit illud, et omnia vasa eius, labrumque cum basi sua sanctificavit oleo.
He sprinkled some of the oil on the altar seven times, anointing the altar and all its utensils, and the basin with its stand, to consecrate them.
12 Quod fundens super caput Aaron, unxit eum, et consecravit:
He also poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron’s head and anointed him to consecrate him.
13 filios quoque eius oblatos vestivit tunicis lineis, et cinxit balteis, imposuitque mitras, ut iusserat Dominus.
Then Moses presented Aaron’s sons, put tunics on them, wrapped sashes around them, and tied headbands on them, just as the LORD had commanded him.
14 Obtulit et vitulum pro peccato. cumque super caput eius posuisset Aaron, et filii eius manus suas,
Moses then brought the bull near for the sin offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.
15 immolavit eum: hauriens sanguinem, et tincto digito, tetigit cornua altaris per gyrum. quo expiato et sanctificato, fudit reliquum sanguinem ad fundamenta eius.
Moses slaughtered the bull, took some of the blood, and applied it with his finger to all four horns of the altar, purifying the altar. He poured out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar and consecrated it so that atonement could be made on it.
16 Adipem vero qui erat super vitalia, et reticulum iecoris, duosque renunculos, cum arvinulis suis adolevit super altare:
Moses also took all the fat that was on the entrails, the lobe of the liver, and both kidneys and their fat, and burned it all on the altar.
17 vitulum cum pelle, et carnibus, et fimo, cremans extra castra, sicut praeceperat Dominus.
But the bull with its hide, flesh, and dung he burned outside the camp, as the LORD had commanded him.
18 Obtulit et arietem in holocaustum: super cuius caput cum imposuissent Aaron et filii eius manus suas,
Then Moses presented the ram for the burnt offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.
19 immolavit eum, et fudit sanguinem eius per circuitum altaris.
Moses slaughtered the ram and sprinkled the blood on all sides 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, 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 praeceperat ei.
He washed the entrails and legs with water and burned the entire ram on the altar as a burnt offering, a pleasing aroma, an offering made by fire to the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
22 Obtulit et arietem secundum, in consecratione sacerdotum: posueruntque super caput eius Aaron et filii eius manus suas.
After that, Moses presented the other ram, the ram of ordination, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.
23 quem cum immolasset Moyses, sumens de sanguine eius, tetigit extremum auriculae dextrae Aaron, et pollicem manus eius dextrae, similiter et pedis.
Moses slaughtered the ram and took some of its blood and put it on Aaron’s right earlobe, 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 auriculae singulorum dextrae, et pollices manus ac pedis dextri, reliquum fudit super altare per circuitum:
Moses also presented Aaron’s sons and put some of the blood on their right earlobes, on the thumbs of their right hands, and on the big toes of their right feet. Then he sprinkled the blood on all sides of the altar.
25 adipem vero, et caudam, omnemque pinguedinem quae operit intestina, reticulumque iecoris, et duos renes cum adipibus suis, et armo dextro separavit.
And Moses took the fat—the fat tail, all the fat that was on the entrails, the lobe of the liver, and both kidneys with their fat—as well as 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,
And from the basket of unleavened bread that was before the LORD, he took one cake of unleavened bread, one cake of bread made with oil, and one wafer, and he placed them on the fat portions and on the right thigh.
27 tradens simul omnia Aaron et filiis eius. Qui postquam levaverunt ea coram Domino,
He put all these in the hands of Aaron and his sons and waved them before the LORD as a wave offering.
28 rursum suscepta de manibus eorum, adolevit super altare holocausti, eo quod consecrationis esset oblatio, in odorem suavitatis, sacrificii Domini.
Then Moses took these from their hands and burned them on the altar with the burnt offering. This was an ordination offering, a pleasing aroma, an offering made by fire to the LORD.
29 Tulitque pectusculum elevans illud coram Domino, de ariete consecrationis in partem suam, sicut praeceperat ei Dominus.
He also took the breast—Moses’ portion of the ram of ordination—and waved it before the LORD as a wave offering, as the LORD 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.
Next, Moses took some of the anointing oil and some of the blood that was on the altar and sprinkled them on Aaron and his garments, and on his sons and their garments. So he consecrated Aaron and his garments, as well as Aaron’s sons and their garments.
31 Cumque sanctificasset eos in vestitu suo, praecepit eis, dicens: Coquite carnes ante fores tabernaculi, et ibi comedite eas. panes quoque consecrationis edite, qui positi sunt in canistro, sicut praecepit mihi Dominus, dicens: Aaron et filii eius comedent eos:
And Moses said to Aaron and his sons, “Boil the meat at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and eat it there with the bread that is in the basket of ordination offerings, as I commanded, saying, ‘Aaron and his sons are to eat it.’
32 quidquid autem reliquum fuerit de carne et panibus, ignis absumet.
Then you must burn up the remainder of the meat and bread.
33 De ostio quoque tabernaculi non exibitis septem diebus, usque ad diem quo complebitur tempus consecrationis vestrae. septem enim diebus finitur consecratio:
You must not go outside the entrance to the Tent of Meeting for seven days, until the days of your ordination are complete; for it will take seven days to ordain you.
34 sicut et impraesentiarum factum est, ut ritus sacrificii compleretur.
What has been done today has been commanded by the LORD in order to make atonement on your behalf.
35 Die ac nocte manebitis in tabernaculo observantes custodias Domini, ne moriamini: sic enim mihi praeceptum est.
You must remain at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting day and night for seven days and keep the LORD’s charge so that you will not die, for this is what I have been commanded.”
36 Feceruntque Aaron et filii eius cuncta quae locutus est Dominus per manum Moysi.
So Aaron and his sons did everything the LORD had commanded through Moses.
