New Living Translation

1“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,

1“This is the ceremony you must follow when you consecrate Aaron and his sons to serve me as priests: Take a young bull and two rams with no defects.

2and unleavened bread, unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil (you shall make them of wheat flour).

2Then, using choice wheat flour and no yeast, make loaves of bread, thin cakes mixed with olive oil, and wafers spread with oil.

3You shall put them in one basket and bring them in the basket, with the bull and the two rams.

3Place them all in a single basket, and present them at the entrance of the Tabernacle, along with the young bull and the two rams.

4“And Aaron and his sons you shall bring to the door of the tabernacle of meeting, and you shall wash them with water.

4“Present Aaron and his sons at the entrance of the Tabernacle, and wash them with water.

5Then 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.

5Dress Aaron in his priestly garments—the tunic, the robe worn with the ephod, the ephod itself, and the chestpiece. Then wrap the decorative sash of the ephod around him.

6You shall put the turban on his head, and put the holy crown on the turban.

6Place the turban on his head, and fasten the sacred medallion to the turban.

7And you shall take the anointing oil, pour it on his head, and anoint him.

7Then anoint him by pouring the anointing oil over his head.

8Then you shall bring his sons and put tunics on them.

8Next present his sons, and dress them in their tunics.

9And 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.

9Wrap the sashes around the waists of Aaron and his sons, and put their special head coverings on them. Then the right to the priesthood will be theirs by law forever. In this way, you will ordain Aaron and his sons.

10“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.

10“Bring the young bull to the entrance of the Tabernacle, where Aaron and his sons will lay their hands on its head.

11Then you shall kill the bull before the LORD, by the door of the tabernacle of meeting.

11Then slaughter the bull in the LORD’s presence at the entrance of the Tabernacle.

12You 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.

12Put some of its blood on the horns of the altar with your finger, and pour out the rest at the base of the altar.

13And 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.

13Take all the fat around the internal organs, the long lobe of the liver, and the two kidneys and the fat around them, and burn it all on the altar.

14But the flesh of the bull, with its skin and its offal, you shall burn with fire outside the camp. It is a sin offering.

14Then take the rest of the bull, including its hide, meat, and dung, and burn it outside the camp as a sin offering.

15“You shall also take one ram, and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands on the head of the ram;

15“Next Aaron and his sons must lay their hands on the head of one of the rams.

16and you shall kill the ram, and you shall take its blood and sprinkle it all around on the altar.

16Then slaughter the ram, and splatter its blood against all sides of the altar.

17Then you shall cut the ram in pieces, wash its entrails and its legs, and put them with its pieces and with its head.

17Cut the ram into pieces, and wash off the internal organs and the legs. Set them alongside the head and the other pieces of the body,

18And 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.

18then burn the entire animal on the altar. This is a burnt offering to the LORD; it is a pleasing aroma, a special gift presented to the LORD.

19“You shall also take the other ram, and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands on the head of the ram.

19“Now take the other ram, and have Aaron and his sons lay their hands on its head.

20Then 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.

20Then slaughter it, and apply some of its blood to the right earlobes of Aaron and his sons. Also put it on the thumbs of their right hands and the big toes of their right feet. Splatter the rest of the blood against all sides of the altar.

21And 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.

21Then take some of the blood from the altar and some of the anointing oil, and sprinkle it on Aaron and his sons and on their garments. In this way, they and their garments will be set apart as holy.

22“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),

22“Since this is the ram for the ordination of Aaron and his sons, take the fat of the ram, including the fat of the broad tail, the fat around the internal organs, the long lobe of the liver, and the two kidneys and the fat around them, along with the right thigh.

23one loaf of bread, one cake made with oil, and one wafer from the basket of the unleavened bread that is before the LORD;

23Then take one round loaf of bread, one thin cake mixed with olive oil, and one wafer from the basket of bread without yeast that was placed in the LORD’s presence.

24and 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.

24Put all these in the hands of Aaron and his sons to be lifted up as a special offering to the LORD.

25You 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.

25Afterward take the various breads from their hands, and burn them on the altar along with the burnt offering. It is a pleasing aroma to the LORD, a special gift for him.

26“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.

26Then take the breast of Aaron’s ordination ram, and lift it up in the LORD’s presence as a special offering to him. Then keep it as your own portion.

27And 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.

27“Set aside the portions of the ordination ram that belong to Aaron and his sons. This includes the breast and the thigh that were lifted up before the LORD as a special offering.

28It 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.

28In the future, whenever the people of Israel lift up a peace offering, a portion of it must be set aside for Aaron and his descendants. This is their permanent right, and it is a sacred offering from the Israelites to the LORD.

29“And the holy garments of Aaron shall be his sons’ after him, to be anointed in them and to be consecrated in them.

29“Aaron’s sacred garments must be preserved for his descendants who succeed him, and they will wear them when they are anointed and ordained.

30That 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.

30The descendant who succeeds him as high priest will wear these clothes for seven days as he ministers in the Tabernacle and the Holy Place.

31“And you shall take the ram of the consecration and boil its flesh in the holy place.

31“Take the ram used in the ordination ceremony, and boil its meat in a sacred place.

32Then 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.

32Then Aaron and his sons will eat this meat, along with the bread in the basket, at the Tabernacle entrance.

33They 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.

33They alone may eat the meat and bread used for their purification in the ordination ceremony. No one else may eat them, for these things are set apart and holy.

34And 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.

34If any of the ordination meat or bread remains until the morning, it must be burned. It may not be eaten, for it is holy.

35“Thus you shall do to Aaron and his sons, according to all that I have commanded you. Seven days you shall consecrate them.

35“This is how you will ordain Aaron and his sons to their offices, just as I have commanded you. The ordination ceremony will go on for seven days.

36And 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.

36Each day you must sacrifice a young bull as a sin offering to purify them, making them right with the LORD. Afterward, cleanse the altar by purifying it ; make it holy by anointing it with oil.

37Seven 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.

37Purify the altar, and consecrate it every day for seven days. After that, the altar will be absolutely holy, and whatever touches it will become holy.

38“Now this is what you shall offer on the altar: two lambs of the first year, day by day continually.

38“These are the sacrifices you are to offer regularly on the altar. Each day, offer two lambs that are a year old,

39One lamb you shall offer in the morning, and the other lamb you shall offer at twilight.

39one in the morning and the other in the evening.

40With 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.

40With one of them, offer two quarts of choice flour mixed with one quart of pure oil of pressed olives; also, offer one quart of wine as a liquid offering.

41And 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.

41Offer the other lamb in the evening, along with the same offerings of flour and wine as in the morning. It will be a pleasing aroma, a special gift presented to the LORD.

42This 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.

42“These burnt offerings are to be made each day from generation to generation. Offer them in the LORD’s presence at the Tabernacle entrance; there I will meet with you and speak with you.

43And there I will meet with the children of Israel, and the tabernacle shall be sanctified by My glory.

43I will meet the people of Israel there, in the place made holy by my glorious presence.

44So 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.

44Yes, I will consecrate the Tabernacle and the altar, and I will consecrate Aaron and his sons to serve me as priests.

45I will dwell among the children of Israel and will be their God.

45Then I will live among the people of Israel and be their God,

46And 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.

46and they will know that I am the LORD their God. I am the one who brought them out of the land of Egypt so that I could live among them. I am the LORD their God.
