| 1The LORD told Moses, | 1The LORD spoke to Moses: " |
| 2"Take Aaron, his sons with him, the clothing, the anointing oil, the bull for sin offering, two rams, and a basket of unleavened bread | 2Take Aaron, his sons with him, the garments, the anointing oil, the bull of the sin offering, the two rams, and the basket of unleavened bread, |
| 3and then assemble the entire congregation at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting." | 3and assemble the whole community at the entrance to the tent of meeting." |
| 4So Moses did just as the LORD had commanded him. He assembled the congregation at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. | 4So Moses did as the LORD commanded him, and the community assembled at the entrance to the tent of meeting. |
| 5Moses told the congregation, "This is what the LORD commanded to be done." | 5Moses said to them, "This is what the LORD has commanded to be done." |
| 6Moses brought Aaron and his sons and washed them with water. | 6Then Moses presented Aaron and his sons and washed them with water. |
| 7Then he clothed Aaron with the tunic, girded him with the band for priests, clothed him with the robe, placed the ephod on him, girded him with the skillfully woven band of the ephod, and bound it on him. | 7He put the tunic on Aaron, wrapped the sash around him, clothed him with the robe, and put the ephod on him. He put the woven band of the ephod around him and fastened it to him. |
| 8He set the breastplate on him, placed the Urim and Thummim on top of the breastplate, | 8Then he put the breastpiece on him and placed the Urim and Thummim into the breastpiece. |
| 9then he set the turban on his head. On the turban at the front he set the golden plate, the sacred crown that the LORD had commanded. | 9He also put the turban on his head and placed the gold medallion, the holy diadem, on the front of the turban, as the LORD had commanded Moses. |
| 10After this, Moses took the anointing oil and anointed the tent, consecrating everything that was in it. | 10Then Moses took the anointing oil and anointed the tabernacle and everything in it to consecrate them. |
| 11He sprinkled some on the altar seven times, and then anointed the altar, all its vessels, the basin, and its base to consecrate them. | 11He sprinkled some of the oil on the altar seven times, anointing the altar with all its utensils, and the basin with its stand, to consecrate them. |
| 12After doing this, he poured the oil of anointing on Aaron's head to anoint and consecrate him. | 12He poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron's head and anointed and consecrated him. |
| 13Then Moses brought Aaron's sons, clothed them with the tunics, girded them with the bands, and bound turbans on them, just as the LORD had commanded him. | 13Then Moses presented Aaron's sons, clothed them with tunics, wrapped sashes around them, and fastened headbands on them, as the LORD had commanded Moses. |
| 14Next, he brought the bull for a sin offering. Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the bull's head for a sin offering. | 14Then he brought the bull near for the sin offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the bull for the sin offering. |
| 15So Moses slaughtered it, took the blood, and applied some of it at the horns of the altar and around it with his fingers, thus purifying the altar. Then he poured the blood at the base of the altar, thereby sanctifying it as a means to make atonement with it. | 15Then Moses slaughtered it, took the blood, and applied it with his finger to the horns of the altar on all sides, purifying the altar. He poured out the blood at the base of the altar and consecrated it so that atonement can be made on it. |
| 16Moses burned on the altar all the fat on the internal organs, the appendage on the liver, the two kidneys, and the fat. | 16Moses took all the fat that was on the entrails, the fatty lobe of the liver, and the two kidneys with their fat, and he burned them on the altar. |
| 17As to the bull and its fat, skin, and offal, he incinerated them outside the camp, just as the LORD had commanded him. | 17He burned up the bull with its hide, flesh, and dung outside the camp, as the LORD had commanded Moses. |
| 18Next, he brought the ram for the whole burnt offering. Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram, | 18Then he presented the ram for the burnt offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram. |
| 19and Moses slaughtered it and poured its blood over and around the altar. | 19Moses slaughtered it and sprinkled the blood on all sides of the altar. |
| 20As to the ram, he cut it into parts at the joints, burned the head, the internal organs, and the fat, | 20Moses cut the ram into pieces and burned the head, the pieces, and the suet, |
| 21washed the internal organs and the thigh with water, and then burned the entire ram on the altar as a whole burnt offering, a pleasing aroma of an offering made by fire to the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded him. | 21but he washed the entrails and shanks with water. He then burned the entire ram on the altar. It was a burnt offering for a pleasing aroma, a fire offering to the LORD as He had commanded Moses. |
| 22Moses brought the ram—that is, the second of the rams—for consecration. Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram. | 22Next he presented the second ram, the ram of ordination, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram. |
| 23Moses then slaughtered it, took some of its blood, and put it on Aaron's right earlobe, right thumb, and right great toe. | 23Moses slaughtered it, 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. |
| 24Then Moses brought Aaron's sons, took some of the ram's blood, put it on their right earlobes, on their right thumbs, and on their right great toes, and then poured the blood on the altar and all around it. | 24Moses 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 Moses sprinkled the blood on all sides of the altar. |
| 25Then he took the fat from the tail, all the fat on the internal organs, the appendage of the liver, the two kidneys with the fat, and the right thigh. | 25He took the fat--the fat tail, all the fat that was on the entrails, the fatty lobe of the liver, and the two kidneys with their fat--as well as the right thigh. |
| 26From the basket of unleavened bread that is in the LORD'S presence he took one piece of unleavened bread, one cake spread with olive oil, and one wafer, which he placed over the fat and the right thigh. | 26From 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 placed them on the fat portions and the right thigh. |
| 27He put all of these things in the hands of Aaron and his sons, and they all waved them in a raised offering to the LORD. | 27He put all these in the hands of Aaron and his sons and waved them before the LORD as a presentation offering. |
| 28After this, Moses took those things from their hands and burned them on the altar over the whole burnt offering for consecration. They served as a pleasing aroma, an offering made by fire to the LORD. | 28Then Moses took them from their hands and burned them on the altar with the burnt offering. This was an ordination offering for a pleasing aroma, a fire offering to the LORD. |
| 29Moses took the breast and waved it as a raised offering in the LORD's presence as the portion that belonged to Moses from the ram of consecration, just as the LORD had commanded him. | 29He also took the breast and waved it before the LORD as a presentation offering; it was Moses' portion of the ordination ram as the LORD had commanded him. |
| 30Moses took some anointing oil and blood that was on the altar and sprinkled it on Aaron, on his clothes, on his sons, and on their clothes, consecrating Aaron, his clothes, his sons, and their clothes. | 30Then 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, as well as on his sons and their garments. In this way he consecrated Aaron and his garments, as well as his sons and their garments. |
| 31Then he told Aaron and his sons, "Boil the meat at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. You may eat it there, along with the bread that is in the basket for consecration, just as I've commanded when I told him, 'Aaron and his sons may eat of it, | 31Moses 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 for the ordination offering as I commanded: Aaron and his sons are to eat it. |
| 32but the leftover meat and bread is to be incinerated.' | 32You must burn up what remains of the meat and bread. |
| 33Furthermore, you are not to go out past the entrance to the Tent of Meeting until the days of your ordination have been completed, since it will take seven days to ordain you. | 33You must not go outside the entrance to the tent of meeting for seven days, until the time your days of ordination are completed, because it will take seven days to ordain you. |
| 34What has been done today has been commanded by the LORD to make atonement for you. | 34The LORD commanded what has been done today in order to make atonement for you. |
| 35Stay seven days and nights at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and attend to the service of the LORD, so that you won't die, because this is what I've commanded." | 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 was commanded." |
| 36So Aaron and his sons did everything that the LORD had commanded through Moses. | 36So Aaron and his sons did everything the LORD had commanded through Moses. |
