Exodus 29

1 sed et hoc facies ut mihi in sacerdotio consecrentur tolle vitulum de armento et arietes duos inmaculatos

“Now this is what you are to do to consecrate Aaron and his sons to serve Me as priests: Take a young bull and two rams without blemish,

2 panesque azymos et crustula absque fermento quae conspersa sint oleo lagana quoque azyma oleo lita de simila triticea cuncta facies

along with unleavened bread, unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil. Make them out of fine wheat flour,

3 et posita in canistro offeres vitulum autem et duos arietes

put them in a basket, and present them in the basket, along with the bull and the two rams.

4 et Aaron ac filios eius adplicabis ad ostium tabernaculi testimonii cumque laveris patrem cum filiis aqua

Then present Aaron and his sons at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and wash them with water.

5 indues Aaron vestimentis suis id est linea et tunica et superumerali et rationali quod constringes balteo

Take the garments and clothe Aaron with the tunic, the robe of the ephod, the ephod itself, and the breastplate. Fasten the ephod on him with its woven waistband.

6 et pones tiaram in capite eius et lamminam sanctam super tiaram

Put the turban on his head and attach the holy diadem to the turban.

7 et oleum unctionis fundes super caput eius atque hoc ritu consecrabitur

Then take the anointing oil and anoint him by pouring it on his head.

8 filios quoque illius adplicabis et indues tunicis lineis cingesque balteo

Present his sons as well and clothe them with tunics.

9 Aaron scilicet et liberos eius et inpones eis mitras eruntque sacerdotes mei in religione perpetua postquam initiaveris manus eorum

Wrap the sashes around Aaron and his sons and tie headbands on them. The priesthood shall be theirs by a permanent statute. In this way you are to ordain Aaron and his sons.

10 adplicabis et vitulum coram tabernaculo testimonii inponentque Aaron et filii eius manus super caput illius

You are to present the bull at the front of the Tent of Meeting, and Aaron and his sons are to lay their hands on its head.

11 et mactabis eum in conspectu Domini iuxta ostium tabernaculi testimonii

And you shall slaughter the bull before the LORD at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

12 sumptumque de sanguine vituli pones super cornua altaris digito tuo reliquum autem sanguinem fundes iuxta basim eius

Take some of the blood of the bull and put it on the horns of the altar with your finger; then pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.

13 sumes et adipem totum qui operit intestina et reticulum iecoris ac duos renes et adipem qui super eos est et offeres incensum super altare

Take all the fat that covers the entrails and the lobe of the liver, and both kidneys with the fat on them, and burn them on the altar.

14 carnes vero vituli et corium et fimum conbures foris extra castra eo quod pro peccato sit

But burn the flesh of the bull and its hide and dung outside the camp; it is a sin offering.

15 unum quoque arietum sumes super cuius caput ponent Aaron et filii eius manus

Take one of the rams, and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on its head.

16 quem cum mactaveris tolles de sanguine eius et fundes circa altare

You are to slaughter the ram, take its blood, and sprinkle it on all sides of the altar.

17 ipsum autem arietem secabis in frusta lotaque intestina eius ac pedes pones super concisas carnes et super caput illius

Cut the ram into pieces, wash the entrails and legs, and place them with its head and other pieces.

18 et offeres totum arietem in incensum super altare oblatio est Domini odor suavissimus victimae Dei

Then burn the entire ram on the altar; it is a burnt offering to the LORD, a pleasing aroma, an offering made by fire to the LORD.

19 tolles quoque arietem alterum super cuius caput Aaron et filii eius ponent manus

Take the second ram, and Aaron and his sons are to lay their hands on its head.

20 quem cum immolaveris sumes de sanguine ipsius et pones super extremum dextrae auriculae Aaron et filiorum eius et super pollices manus eorum et pedis dextri fundesque sanguinem super altare per circuitum

Slaughter the ram, take some of its blood, and put it on the right earlobes of Aaron and his sons, on the thumbs of their right hands, and on the big toes of their right feet. Sprinkle the remaining blood on all sides of the altar.

21 cumque tuleris de sanguine qui est super altare et de oleo unctionis asperges Aaron et vestes eius filios et vestimenta eorum consecratisque et ipsis et vestibus

And take some of the blood on the altar and some of the anointing oil and sprinkle it on Aaron and his garments, as well as on his sons and their garments. Then he and his garments will be consecrated, as well as his sons and their garments.

22 tolles adipem de ariete et caudam et arvinam quae operit vitalia ac reticulum iecoris et duos renes atque adipem qui super eos est armumque dextrum eo quod sit aries consecrationum

Take the fat from the ram, the fat tail, the fat covering the entrails, the lobe of the liver, both kidneys with the fat on them, and the right thigh (since this is a ram for ordination),

23 tortam panis unius crustulum conspersum oleo laganum de canistro azymorum quod positum est in conspectu Domini

along with one loaf of bread, one cake of bread made with oil, and one wafer from the basket of unleavened bread that is before the LORD.

24 ponesque omnia super manus Aaron et filiorum eius et sanctificabis eos elevans coram Domino

Put all these in the hands of Aaron and his sons and wave them before the LORD as a wave offering.

25 suscipiesque universa de manibus eorum et incendes super altare in holocaustum odorem suavissimum in conspectu Domini quia oblatio eius est

Then take them from their hands and burn them on the altar atop the burnt offering as a pleasing aroma before the LORD; it is an offering made by fire to the LORD.

26 sumes quoque pectusculum de ariete quo initiatus est Aaron sanctificabisque illud elatum coram Domino et cedet in partem tuam

Take the breast of the ram of Aaron’s ordination and wave it before the LORD as a wave offering, and it will be your portion.

27 sanctificabis et pectusculum consecratum et armum quem de ariete separasti

Consecrate for Aaron and his sons the breast of the wave offering that is waved and the thigh of the heave offering that is lifted up from the ram of ordination.

28 quo initiatus est Aaron et filii eius cedentque in partem Aaron et filiorum eius iure perpetuo a filiis Israhel quia primitiva sunt et initia de victimis eorum pacificis quae offerunt Domino

This will belong to Aaron and his sons as a regular portion from the Israelites, for it is the heave offering the Israelites will make to the LORD from their peace offerings.

29 vestem autem sanctam qua utitur Aaron habebunt filii eius post eum ut unguantur in ea et consecrentur manus eorum

The holy garments that belong to Aaron will belong to his sons after him, so they can be anointed and ordained in them.

30 septem diebus utetur illa qui pontifex pro eo fuerit constitutus de filiis eius et qui ingredietur tabernaculum testimonii ut ministret in sanctuario

The son who succeeds him as priest and enters the Tent of Meeting to minister in the Holy Place must wear them for seven days.

31 arietem autem consecrationum tolles et coques carnes eius in loco sancto

You are to take the ram of ordination and boil its flesh in a holy place.

32 quibus vescetur Aaron et filii eius panes quoque qui sunt in canistro in vestibulo tabernaculi testimonii comedent

At the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, Aaron and his sons are to eat the meat of the ram and the bread that is in the basket.

33 ut sit placabile sacrificium et sanctificentur offerentium manus alienigena non vescetur ex eis quia sancti sunt

They must eat those things by which atonement was made for their ordination and consecration. But no outsider may eat them, because these things are sacred.

34 quod si remanserit de carnibus consecratis sive de panibus usque mane conbures reliquias igni non comedentur quia sanctificata sunt

And if any of the meat of ordination or any bread is left until the morning, you are to burn up the remainder. It must not be eaten, because it is sacred.

35 omnia quae praecepi tibi facies super Aaron et filiis eius septem diebus consecrabis manus eorum

This is what you are to do for Aaron and his sons based on all that I have commanded you, taking seven days to ordain them.

36 et vitulum pro peccato offeres per singulos dies ad expiandum mundabisque altare cum immolaris expiationis hostiam et ungues illud in sanctificationem

Sacrifice a bull as a sin offering each day for atonement. Purify the altar by making atonement for it, and anoint it to consecrate it.

37 septem diebus expiabis altare et sanctificabis et erit sanctum sanctorum omnis qui tetigerit illud sanctificabitur

For seven days you shall make atonement for the altar and consecrate it. Then the altar will become most holy; whatever touches the altar will be holy.

38 hoc est quod facies in altari agnos anniculos duos per singulos dies iugiter

This is what you are to offer regularly on the altar, each day: two lambs that are a year old.

39 unum agnum mane et alterum vespere

Offer one lamb in the morning and the other at twilight.

40 decimam partem similae conspersae oleo tunso quod habeat mensuram quartam partem hin et vinum ad libandum eiusdem mensurae in agno uno

With the first lamb offer a tenth of an ephah of fine flour, mixed with a quarter hin of oil from pressed olives, and a drink offering of a quarter hin of wine.

41 alterum vero agnum offeres ad vesperam iuxta ritum matutinae oblationis et iuxta ea quae diximus in odorem suavitatis

And offer the second lamb at twilight with the same grain offering and drink offering as in the morning, as a pleasing aroma, an offering made by fire to the LORD.

42 sacrificium Domino oblatione perpetua in generationes vestras ad ostium tabernaculi testimonii coram Domino ubi constituam ut loquar ad te

For the generations to come, this burnt offering shall be made regularly at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting before the LORD, where I will meet you to speak with you.

43 ibique praecipiam filiis Israhel et sanctificabitur altare in gloria mea

I will also meet with the Israelites there, and that place will be consecrated by My glory.

44 sanctificabo et tabernaculum testimonii cum altari et Aaron cum filiis eius ut sacerdotio fungantur mihi

So I will consecrate the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and I will consecrate Aaron and his sons to serve Me as priests.

45 et habitabo in medio filiorum Israhel eroque eis Deus

Then I will dwell among the Israelites and be their God.

46 et scient quia ego Dominus Deus eorum qui eduxi eos de terra Aegypti ut manerem inter illos ego Dominus Deus ipsorum

And they will know that I am the LORD their God, who brought them out of the land of Egypt so that I might dwell among them. I am the LORD their God.
