¶ And this is the thing that thou shalt do unto them to hallow them,¹ to minister² unto me in the priest's office: Take³ one young bullock, and two rams without⁴ blemish,

And unleavened bread⁵, and cakes unleavened tempered⁶ with oil, and wafers⁷ unleavened anointed with oil: of wheaten flour shalt thou make them.

And thou shalt put them into one basket, and bring them in the basket⁸, with the bullock and the two rams.

And Aaron and his sons thou shalt bring unto the door⁹ of the tabernacle of the congregation, and shalt wash them¹⁰ with water.

And thou shalt take the garments¹¹, and put upon Aaron the coat, and the robe of the ephod, and the ephod, and the breastplate, and gird him with the curious¹² girdle of the ephod:

And thou shalt put the mitre¹³ upon his head, and put the holy crown upon the mitre.

¹⁴Then shalt thou take the anointing oil, and pour it upon his head, and anoint him.

¹⁵And thou shalt bring his sons, and put coats upon them.

And thou shalt gird them with girdles, Aaron and his sons, and put¹⁶ the bonnets on them: and the priest's office shall be theirs for a perpetual statute: and thou shalt consecrate¹⁷ Aaron and his sons.

¶ And thou shalt cause¹⁸ a bullock to be brought before the tabernacle of the congregation: and Aaron and his sons shall put¹⁹ their hands upon the head of the bullock.

And²⁰ thou shalt kill the bullock before the LORD, by the door²¹ of the tabernacle of the congregation.

And thou shalt take of the blood²² of the bullock, and put it upon the horns²³ of the altar with thy finger, and pour all²⁴ the blood beside the bottom of the altar.

And thou shalt take all the fat²⁵ that covereth the inwards, and the caul²⁶ that is above the liver, and the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, and burn them²⁷ upon the altar.

But the flesh²⁸ of the bullock, and his skin, and his dung, shalt thou burn with fire without the camp: it is a²⁹ sin offering.

Thou shalt also take one³⁰ ram; and Aaron and his sons shall put³¹ their hands upon the head of the ram.

³²And thou shalt slay the ram, and thou shalt take his blood, and sprinkle it round about upon the altar.

And thou shalt cut the ram in pieces, and wash the³³ inwards of him, and his legs, and put them unto³⁴ his pieces, and unto his head.

And thou shalt burn the whole ram upon the altar: it is a burnt offering³⁵ unto the LORD: it is a sweet savour³⁶, an offering made by fire unto the LORD.

And thou shalt take the other³⁷ ram; and Aaron³⁸ and his sons shall put their hands upon the head of the ram.

¶ Then shalt thou kill the ram, and take of his blood, and put it upon the tip³⁹ of the right ear of Aaron, and upon the tip of the right ear of his sons, and upon the thumb of their right hand, and upon the great toe of their right foot, and sprinkle⁴⁰ the blood upon the altar round about.

And thou shalt take of the blood that is upon the altar, and of the anointing oil⁴¹, and sprinkle it upon Aaron, and upon his garments, and upon his sons, and upon the garments of his sons with him: and he shall be⁴² hallowed, and his garments, and his sons, and his sons' garments with him.

Also thou⁴³ shalt take of the ram the fat and the rump⁴⁴, and the fat that covereth the inwards, and the caul above the liver, and the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, and the right shoulder⁴⁵; for it is a ram of consecration:

⁴⁶And one loaf of bread, and one cake of oiled bread, and one wafer out of the basket of the unleavened bread that is before the LORD:

And thou shalt put⁴⁷ all in the hands of Aaron, and in the hands of his sons; and shalt wave them⁴⁸ for a wave offering before the LORD.

And thou⁴⁹ shalt receive them of their hands, and burn them upon the altar for a burnt offering, for a sweet⁵⁰ savour before the LORD: it is an offering⁵¹ made by fire unto the LORD.

And thou shalt take the breast⁵² of the ram of Aaron's consecration, and wave it for a wave offering before the LORD: and it shall be thy⁵³ part.

And thou shalt sanctify the breast⁵⁴ of the wave offering⁵⁵, and the shoulder of the heave offering, which is waved, and which is heaved up, of the ram of the consecration⁵⁶, even of that which is for Aaron, and of that which is for his sons:

And it shall be Aaron's⁵⁷ and his sons' by a statute for ever from the children of Israel: for it is an heave⁵⁸ offering: and it shall be an heave offering from the children of Israel of the sacrifice⁵⁹ of their peace offerings, even their heave offering unto the LORD.

And the holy⁶⁰ garments of Aaron shall be his⁶¹ sons' after him, to be anointed⁶² therein, and to be consecrated in them.

¶ And that son⁶³ that is priest in his stead shall put them on seven days⁶⁴, when he cometh into the tabernacle of the congregation to minister in the holy place.

And thou shalt take the ram⁶⁵ of the consecration, and seethe his flesh⁶⁶ in the holy place.

And Aaron⁶⁷ and his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram, and the bread⁶⁸ that is in the basket, by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.

And they shall eat those⁶⁹ things wherewith the atonement was made, to consecrate and to sanctify them: but a stranger⁷⁰ shall not eat thereof, because they are holy⁷¹.

And if ought of the flesh⁷² of the consecrations, or of the bread, remain unto the morning, then thou shalt burn⁷³ the remainder with fire: it shall not be eaten, because it is holy.

And thus shalt thou do⁷⁴ unto Aaron, and to his sons, according⁷⁵ to all things which I have commanded thee: seven days⁷⁶ shalt thou consecrate them.

And thou shalt offer every day⁷⁷ a bullock for a sin offering for atonement: and thou shalt cleanse⁷⁸ the altar, when thou hast made an atonement for it, and thou shalt anoint it,⁷⁹ to sanctify it.

Seven days thou shalt make an atonement for the altar, and sanctify it;⁸⁰ and it shall be an⁸¹ altar most holy: whatsoever toucheth the altar shall be holy.

¶ Now this is that which thou shalt offer upon the altar; two lambs⁸² of the first year day by day continually.

The one lamb thou shalt offer in the morning⁸³; and the other lamb thou shalt offer at even⁸⁴:

¶ And with the one lamb a tenth⁸⁵ deal⁸⁶ of flour mingled with the fourth part of an hin⁸⁷ of beaten oil; and the fourth part of an hin of wine for a drink⁸⁸ offering.

And the other lamb thou shalt offer⁸⁹ at even, and shalt do thereto according to the meat offering of the morning, and according to the drink offering thereof, for a sweet savour, an offering made by fire unto the LORD.

This shall be a continual⁹⁰ burnt offering throughout your generations at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the LORD: where⁹¹ I will meet you, to speak there unto thee.

And there I will meet with the children of Israel, and the tabernacle⁹² shall be sanctified by my glory.

And I will sanctify the tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar: I will sanctify also⁹³ both Aaron and his sons, to minister to me in the priest's office.

⁹⁴And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will be their God.

And they shall know that I am⁹⁵ the LORD their God, that brought them⁹⁶ forth out of the land of Egypt, that I may dwell among them: I am the LORD their God.
