Leviticus 9:1-16 ▼

1 And it comes to pass on the eighth day, Moses has called for Aaron and for his sons, and for [the] elderly of Israel,

2 and he says to Aaron, “Take a calf for yourself, a son of the herd, for a sin-offering, and a ram for a burnt-offering, perfect ones, and bring [them] near before YHWH.

3 And you speak to the sons of Israel, saying, Take a kid of the goats for a sin-offering, and a calf, and a lamb, sons of a year, perfect ones, for a burnt-offering,

4 and a bullock and a ram for peace-offerings, to sacrifice before YHWH, and a present mixed with oil; for today YHWH has appeared to you.”

5 And they take that which Moses has commanded to the front of the Tent of Meeting, and all the congregation draws near and stands before YHWH;

6 and Moses says, “This [is] the thing which YHWH has commanded; do [it], and the glory of YHWH appears to you.”

7 And Moses says to Aaron, “Draw near to the altar, and make your sin-offering, and your burnt-offering, and make atonement for yourself, and for the people, and make the offering of the people, and make atonement for them, as YHWH has commanded.”

8 And Aaron draws near to the altar, and slaughters the calf of the sin-offering, which [is] for himself;

9 and the sons of Aaron bring the blood near to him, and he dips his finger in the blood, and puts [it] on the horns of the altar, and he has poured out the blood at the foundation of the altar;

10 and the fat, and the kidneys, and the redundance of the liver, of the sin-offering, he has made incense on the altar, as YHWH has commanded Moses;

11 and he has burned the flesh and the skin with fire, at the outside of the camp.

12 And he slaughters the burnt-offering, and the sons of Aaron have presented the blood to him, and he sprinkles it around the altar;

13 and they have presented the burnt-offering to him, by its pieces, and the head, and he makes incense on the altar;

14 and he washes the innards and the legs, and makes incense for the burnt-offering on the altar.

15 And he brings the offering of the people near, and takes the goat of the sin-offering which [is] for the people, and slaughters it, and makes it a sin-offering, like the first;

16 and he brings the burnt-offering near, and makes it, according to the ordinance;
