*
And you shall take the anointing oil ,
and pour it on his head and anoint him .
*
Then you shall bring his sons ,
and put coats on them ,
*
and you shall gird them with girdles and bind caps on them ;
and the priesthood shall be theirs by a perpetual statute .
Thus you shall ordain Aaron and his sons .
* "
Then you shall bring the bull before the tent of meeting .
Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands upon the head of the bull ,
*
and you shall kill the bull before the LORD ,
at the door of the tent of meeting ,
*
and shall take part of the blood of the bull and put it upon the horns of the altar with your finger ,
and the rest of the blood you shall pour out at the base of the altar .
*
And you shall take all the fat that covers the entrails ,
and the appendage of the liver ,
and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them ,
and burn them upon the altar .
*
But the flesh of the bull ,
and its skin ,
and its dung ,
you shall burn with fire outside the camp ;
it is a sin offering .
* "
Then you shall take one of the rams ,
and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands upon the head of the ram ,
*
and you shall slaughter the ram ,
and shall take its blood and throw it against the altar round about .
*
Then you shall cut the ram into pieces ,
and wash its entrails and its legs ,
and put them with its pieces and its head ,
*
and burn the whole ram upon the altar ;
it is a burnt offering to the LORD ;
it is a pleasing odor ,
an offering by fire to the LORD .
* "
You shall take the other ram ;
and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands upon the head of the ram ,
*
and you shall kill the ram ,
and take part of its blood and put it upon the tip of the right ear of Aaron and upon the tips of the right ears of his sons ,
and upon the thumbs of their right hands ,
and upon the great toes of their right feet ,
and throw the rest of the blood against the altar round about .
*
Then you shall take part of the blood that is on the altar ,
and of the anointing oil ,
and sprinkle it upon Aaron and his garments ,
and upon his sons and his sons '
garments with him ;
and he and his garments shall be holy ,
and his sons and his sons '
garments with him .
* "
You shall also take the fat of the ram ,
and the fat tail ,
and the fat that covers the entrails ,
and the appendage of the liver ,
and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them ,
and the right thigh (
for it is a ram of ordination ),
*
and one loaf of bread ,
and one cake of bread with oil ,
and one wafer ,
out of the basket of 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 wave them for a wave offering before the LORD .
*
Then you shall take them from their hands ,
and burn them on the altar in addition to the burnt offering ,
as a pleasing odor before the LORD ;
it is an offering by fire to the LORD .
* "
And you shall take the breast of the ram of Aaron '
s ordination and wave it for a wave offering before the LORD ;
and it shall be your portion .
*
And you shall consecrate the breast of the wave offering ,
and the thigh of the priests '
portion ,
which is waved ,
and which is offered from the ram of ordination ,
since it is for Aaron and for his sons .
*
It shall be for Aaron and his sons as a perpetual due from the people of Israel ,
for it is the priests '
portion to be offered by the people of Israel from their peace offerings ;
it is their offering to the LORD .
* "
The holy garments of Aaron shall be for his sons after him ,
to be anointed in them and ordained in them .
*
The son who is priest in his place shall wear them seven days ,
when he comes into the tent of meeting to minister in the holy place .
* "
You shall take the ram of ordination ,
and boil its flesh in a holy place ;
*
and Aaron and his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram and the bread that is in the basket ,
at the door of the tent of meeting .
*
They shall eat those things with which atonement was made ,
to ordain and consecrate them ,
but an outsider shall not eat of them ,
because they are holy .
*
And if any of the flesh for the ordination ,
or of the bread ,
remain 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 to his sons ,
according to all that I have commanded you ;
through seven days shall you ordain them ,
*
and every day you shall offer a bull as a sin offering for atonement .
Also you shall offer a sin offering for the altar ,
when you make atonement for it ,
and shall anoint it ,
to consecrate it .
*
Seven days you shall make atonement for the altar ,
and consecrate it ,
and the altar shall be most holy ;
whatever touches the altar shall become holy .
