* "And this is what you shall do to them to hallow them for ministering to Me as priests : Take one young bull and two rams without blemish , * and unleavened bread , unleavened cakes mixed with oil , and unleavened wafers anointed with oil (you shall make them of wheat flour ). * You shall put them in one basket and bring them in the basket , with the bull and the two rams . * "And Aaron and his sons you shall bring to the door of the tabernacle of meeting , and you shall wash them with water . * Then you shall take the garments , put the tunic on Aaron , and the robe of the ephod , the ephod , and the breastplate , and gird him with the intricately woven band of the ephod . * You shall put the turban on his head , and put the holy crown on the turban . * And you shall take the anointing oil , pour it on his head , and anoint him . * Then you shall bring his sons and put tunics on them . * And you shall gird them with sashes , Aaron and his sons , and put the hats on them . The priesthood shall be theirs for a perpetual statute . So you shall consecrate Aaron and his sons . * "You shall also have the bull brought before the tabernacle of meeting , and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands on the head of the bull . * Then you shall kill the bull before the LORD , by the door of the tabernacle of meeting . * You shall take some of the blood of the bull and put it on the horns of the altar with your finger , and pour all the blood beside the base of the altar . * And you shall take all the fat that covers the entrails , the fatty lobe attached to the liver , and the two kidneys and the fat that is on them , and burn them on the altar . * But the flesh of the bull , with its skin and its offal , you shall burn with fire outside the camp . It is a sin offering . * "You shall also take one ram , and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands on the head of the ram ; * and you shall kill the ram , and you shall take its blood and sprinkle it all around on the altar . * Then you shall cut the ram in pieces , wash its entrails and its legs , and put them with its pieces and with its head . * And you shall burn the whole ram on the altar . It is a burnt offering to the LORD ; it is a sweet aroma , an offering made by fire to the LORD . * "You shall also take the other ram , and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands on the head of the ram . * Then you shall kill the ram , and take some of its blood and put it on the tip of the right ear of Aaron and on the tip of the right ear of his sons , on the thumb of their right hand and on the big toe of their right foot , and sprinkle the blood all around on the altar . * And you shall take some of the blood that is on the altar , and some of the anointing oil , and sprinkle it on Aaron and on his garments , on his sons and on the garments of his sons with him ; and he and his garments shall be hallowed , and his sons and his sons ' garments with him . * "Also you shall take the fat of the ram , the fat tail , the fat that covers the entrails , the fatty lobe attached to the liver , the two kidneys and the fat on them , the right thigh (for it is a ram of consecration ), * one loaf of bread , one cake made with oil , and one wafer from the basket of the unleavened bread that is before the LORD ; * and you shall put all these in the hands of Aaron and in the hands of his sons , and you shall wave them as a wave offering before the LORD . * You shall receive them back from their hands and burn them on the altar as a burnt offering , as a sweet aroma before the LORD . It is an offering made by fire to the LORD . * "Then you shall take the breast of the ram of Aaron 's consecration and wave it as a wave offering before the LORD ; and it shall be your portion . * And from the ram of the consecration you shall consecrate the breast of the wave offering which is waved , and the thigh of the heave offering which is raised , of that which is for Aaron and of that which is for his sons . * It shall be from the children of Israel for Aaron and his sons by a statute forever . For it is a heave offering ; it shall be a heave offering from the children of Israel from the sacrifices of their peace offerings , that is , their heave offering to the LORD . * "And the holy garments of Aaron shall be his sons ' after him , to be anointed in them and to be consecrated in them . * That son who becomes priest in his place shall put them on for seven days , when he enters the tabernacle of meeting to minister in the holy place . * "And you shall take the ram of the consecration and boil its flesh in the holy place . * Then Aaron and his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram , and the bread that is in the basket , by the door of the tabernacle of meeting . * They shall eat those things with which the atonement was made , to consecrate and to sanctify them ; but an outsider shall not eat them , because they are holy . * And if any of the flesh of the consecration offerings , or of the bread , remains until the morning , then you shall burn the remainder with fire . It shall not be eaten , because it is holy . * "Thus you shall do to Aaron and his sons , according to all that I have commanded you . Seven days you shall consecrate them . * And you shall offer a bull every day as a sin offering for atonement . You shall cleanse the altar when you make atonement for it , and you shall anoint it to sanctify it . * Seven days you shall make atonement for the altar and sanctify it . And the altar shall be most holy . Whatever touches the altar must be holy . * "Now this is what you shall offer on the altar : two lambs of the first year , day by day continually . * One lamb you shall offer in the morning , and the other lamb you shall offer at twilight . * With the one lamb shall be one-tenth of an ephah of flour mixed with one-fourth of a hin of pressed oil , and one-fourth of a hin of wine as a drink offering . * And the other lamb you shall offer at twilight ; and you shall offer with it the grain offering and the drink offering , as in the morning , for a sweet aroma , an offering made by fire to the LORD . * This shall be a continual burnt offering throughout your generations at the door of the tabernacle of meeting before the LORD , where I will meet you to speak with you . * And there I will meet with the children of Israel , and the tabernacle shall be sanctified by My glory . * So I will consecrate the tabernacle of meeting and the altar . I will also consecrate both Aaron and his sons to minister to Me as priests . * I will dwell among the children of Israel and will be their God . * And they shall know that I am the LORD their God , who brought them up out of the land of Egypt , that I may dwell among them . I am the LORD their God .
