1It came to pass on the eighth day that Moses called Aaron and his sons and the elders of Israel.1On the eighth day Moses called Aaron and his sons and the elders of Israel,
2And he said to Aaron, “Take for yourself a young bull as a sin offering and a ram as a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer them before the LORD.2and he said to Aaron, “Take for yourself a bull calf for a sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering, both without blemish, and offer them before the LORD.
3And to the children of Israel you shall speak, saying, ‘Take a kid of the goats as a sin offering, and a calf and a lamb, both of the first year, without blemish, as a burnt offering,3And say to the people of Israel, ‘Take a male goat for a sin offering, and a calf and a lamb, both a year old without blemish, for a burnt offering,
4also a bull and a ram as peace offerings, to sacrifice before the LORD, and a grain offering mixed with oil; for today the LORD will appear to you.’ ”4and an ox and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before the LORD, and a grain offering mixed with oil, for today the LORD will appear to you.’”
5So they brought what Moses commanded before the tabernacle of meeting. And all the congregation drew near and stood before the LORD.5And they brought what Moses commanded in front of the tent of meeting, and all the congregation drew near and stood before the LORD.
6Then Moses said, “This is the thing which the LORD commanded you to do, and the glory of the LORD will appear to you.”6And Moses said, “This is the thing that the LORD commanded you to do, that the glory of the LORD may appear to you.”
7And Moses said to Aaron, “Go to the altar, offer your sin offering and your burnt offering, and make atonement for yourself and for the people. Offer the offering of the people, and make atonement for them, as the LORD commanded.”7Then Moses said to Aaron, “Draw near to the altar and offer your sin offering and your burnt offering and make atonement for yourself and for the people, and bring the offering of the people and make atonement for them, as the LORD has commanded.”
8Aaron therefore went to the altar and killed the calf of the sin offering, which was for himself.8So Aaron drew near to the altar and killed the calf of the sin offering, which was for himself.
9Then the sons of Aaron brought the blood to him. And he dipped his finger in the blood, put it on the horns of the altar, and poured the blood at the base of the altar.9And the sons of Aaron presented the blood to him, and he dipped his finger in the blood and put it on the horns of the altar and poured out the blood at the base of the altar.

13Then they presented the burnt offering to him, with its pieces and head, and he burned them on the altar.13And they handed the burnt offering to him, piece by piece, and the head, and he burned them on the altar.
14And he washed the entrails and the legs, and burned them with the burnt offering on the altar.14And he washed the entrails and the legs and burned them with the burnt offering on the altar.
15Then he brought the people’s offering, and took the goat, which was the sin offering for the people, and killed it and offered it for sin, like the first one.15Then he presented the people’s offering and took the goat of the sin offering that was for the people and killed it and offered it as a sin offering, like the first one.
16And he brought the burnt offering and offered it according to the prescribed manner.16And he presented the burnt offering and offered it according to the rule.
17Then he brought the grain offering, took a handful of it, and burned it on the altar, besides the burnt sacrifice of the morning.17And he presented the grain offering, took a handful of it, and burned it on the altar, besides the burnt offering of the morning.
18He also killed the bull and the ram as sacrifices of peace offerings, which were for the people. And Aaron’s sons presented to him the blood, which he sprinkled all around on the altar,18Then he killed the ox and the ram, the sacrifice of peace offerings for the people. And Aaron’s sons handed him the blood, and he threw it against the sides of the altar.
19and the fat from the bull and the ram—the fatty tail, what covers the entrails and the kidneys, and the fatty lobe attached to the liver;19But the fat pieces of the ox and of the ram, the fat tail and that which covers the entrails and the kidneys and the long lobe of the liver—
20and they put the fat on the breasts. Then he burned the fat on the altar;20they put the fat pieces on the breasts, and he burned the fat pieces on the altar,
21but the breasts and the right thigh Aaron waved as a wave offering before the LORD, as Moses had commanded.21but the breasts and the right thigh Aaron waved for a wave offering before the LORD, as Moses commanded.
22Then Aaron lifted his hand toward the people, blessed them, and came down from offering the sin offering, the burnt offering, and peace offerings.22Then Aaron lifted up his hands toward the people and blessed them, and he came down from offering the sin offering and the burnt offering and the peace offerings.

Then the glory of the LORD appeared to all the people,23And Moses and Aaron went into the tent of meeting, and when they came out they blessed the people, and the glory of the LORD appeared to all the people.
24and fire came out from before the LORD and consumed the burnt offering and the fat on the altar. When all the people saw it, they shouted and fell on their faces.24And fire came out from before the LORD and consumed the burnt offering and the pieces of fat on the altar, and when all the people saw it, they shouted and fell on their faces.
