Exodus 29:1-9 ▼

1 [The LORD continued,] |Now, this is what you must do in order to set Aaron and his sons apart to serve me as priests: |Take a young bull that has no defects and two rams that have no defects.

2 Use the finest wheat flour, but no yeast, and bake some loaves of bread, some rings of bread made with olive oil, and some wafers brushed with olive oil.

3 Put the bread in a basket, and bring the basket along with the young bull and the two rams.

4 |Then bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance of the tent of meeting, and wash them.

5 Take the clothes, and put them on Aaron-the linen robe, the ephod and the robe that is worn with it, and the breastplate. Use the belt to tie it on him tightly.

6 Put his turban on him, and fasten the holy crown to it.

7 Take the anointing oil, pour it on his head, and anoint him.

8 |Have his sons come forward. Dress them in their linen robes,

9 and put turbans on them. Tie belts around the waists of Aaron and his sons. They alone are to be priests; this is a permanent law. In this way you will ordain Aaron and his sons.
