Leviticus 9:1-10 ▼

1 It happened on the eighth day, that Moses called Aaron and his sons, and the elders of Israel;

2 and he said to Aaron, |Take a calf from the herd for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer them before the LORD.

3 You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'Take a male goat for a sin offering; and a calf and a lamb, both a year old, without blemish, for a burnt offering;

4 and a bull and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before the LORD; and a meal offering mixed with oil: for today the LORD appears to you.'|

5 They brought what Moses commanded before the Tent of Meeting: and all the congregation drew near and stood before the LORD.

6 Moses said, |This is the thing which the LORD commanded that you should do: and the glory of the LORD shall appear to you.|

7 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 offer the offering of the people, and make atonement for them; as the LORD commanded.|

8 So Aaron drew near to the altar, and killed the calf of the sin offering, which was for himself.

9 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:

10 but the fat, and the kidneys, and the cover from the liver of the sin offering, he burned upon the altar; as the LORD commanded Moses.
