1Then the LORD said to Moses,

1Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

2“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,

2"Take Aaron and his sons with him, and the garments and the anointing oil and the bull of the sin offering, and the two rams and the basket of unleavened bread,

3and assemble the whole congregation at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.”

3and assemble all the congregation at the doorway of the tent of meeting."

4So Moses did as the LORD had commanded him, and the assembly gathered at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

4So Moses did just as the LORD commanded him. When the congregation was assembled at the doorway of the tent of meeting,

5And Moses said to them, “This is what the LORD has commanded to be done.”

5Moses said to the congregation, "This is the thing which the LORD has commanded to do."

6Then Moses presented Aaron and his sons and washed them with water.

6Then Moses had Aaron and his sons come near and washed them with water.

7He 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.

7He put the tunic on him and girded him with the sash, and clothed him with the robe and put the ephod on him; and he girded him with the artistic band of the ephod, with which he tied it to him.

8Then he put the breastpiece on him and placed the Urim and Thummim in the breastpiece.

8He then placed the breastpiece on him, and in the breastpiece he put the Urim and the Thummim.

9Moses 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.

9He also placed the turban on his head, and on the turban, at its front, he placed the golden plate, the holy crown, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

10Next, Moses took the anointing oil and anointed the tabernacle and everything in it; and so he consecrated them.

10Moses then took the anointing oil and anointed the tabernacle and all that was in it, and consecrated them.

11He 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.

11He sprinkled some of it on the altar seven times and anointed the altar and all its utensils, and the basin and its stand, to consecrate them.

13Then 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.

13Next Moses had Aaron's sons come near and clothed them with tunics, and girded them with sashes and bound caps on them, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

14Moses then brought the bull near for the sin offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.

14Then he brought the bull of the sin offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the bull of the sin offering.

15Moses 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.

15Next Moses slaughtered it and took the blood and with his finger put some of it around on the horns of the altar, and purified the altar. Then he poured out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar and consecrated it, to make atonement for it.

16Moses 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.

16He also took all the fat that was on the entrails and the lobe of the liver, and the two kidneys and their fat; and Moses offered it up in smoke on the altar.

17But the bull with its hide, flesh, and dung he burned outside the camp, as the LORD had commanded him.

17But the bull and its hide and its flesh and its refuse he burned in the fire outside the camp, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

18Then Moses presented the ram for the burnt offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.

18Then he presented the ram of the burnt offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram.

19Moses slaughtered the ram and sprinkled the blood on all sides of the altar.

19Moses slaughtered it and sprinkled the blood around on the altar.

20He cut the ram into pieces and burned the head, the pieces, and the fat.

20When he had cut the ram into its pieces, Moses offered up the head and the pieces and the suet in smoke.

21He 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.

21After he had washed the entrails and the legs with water, Moses offered up the whole ram in smoke on the altar. It was a burnt offering for a soothing aroma; it was an offering by fire to the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

22After that, Moses presented the other ram, the ram of ordination, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.

22Then he presented the second ram, the ram of ordination, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram.

23Moses 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.

24He also had Aaron's sons come near; and Moses put some of the blood on the lobe of their right ear, and on the thumb of their right hand and on the big toe of their right foot. Moses then sprinkled the rest of the blood around on the altar.

25And 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.

25He took the fat, and the fat tail, and all the fat that was on the entrails, and the lobe of the liver and the two kidneys and their fat and the right thigh.

26And 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.

26From the basket of unleavened bread that was before the LORD, he took one unleavened cake and one cake of bread mixed with oil and one wafer, and placed them on the portions of fat and on the right thigh.

27He put all these in the hands of Aaron and his sons and waved them before the LORD as a wave offering.

27He then put all these on the hands of Aaron and on the hands of his sons and presented them as a wave offering before the LORD.

28Then 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.

28Then Moses took them from their hands and offered them up in smoke on the altar with the burnt offering. They were an ordination offering for a soothing aroma; it was an offering by fire to the LORD.

29He 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.

29Moses also took the breast and presented it for a wave offering before the LORD; it was Moses' portion of the ram of ordination, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

30Next, 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.

30So Moses took some of the anointing oil and some of the blood which was on the altar and sprinkled it on Aaron, on his garments, on his sons, and on the garments of his sons with him; and he consecrated Aaron, his garments, and his sons, and the garments of his sons with him.

31And 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.’

31Then Moses said to Aaron and to his sons, "Boil the flesh at the doorway of the tent of meeting, and eat it there together with the bread which is in the basket of the ordination offering, just as I commanded, saying, 'Aaron and his sons shall eat it.'

32Then you must burn up the remainder of the meat and bread.

32"The remainder of the flesh and of the bread you shall burn in the fire.

33You 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.

33"You shall not go outside the doorway of the tent of meeting for seven days, until the day that the period of your ordination is fulfilled; for he will ordain you through seven days.

34What has been done today has been commanded by the LORD in order to make atonement on your behalf.

34"The LORD has commanded to do as has been done this day, to make atonement on your behalf.

35You 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.”

35"At the doorway of the tent of meeting, moreover, you shall remain day and night for seven days and keep the charge of the LORD, so that you will not die, for so I have been commanded."

36So Aaron and his sons did everything the LORD had commanded through Moses.

36Thus Aaron and his sons did all the things which the LORD had commanded through Moses.
