picture

1 O n the eighth day, Moses called Aaron and his sons, and the elders of Israel;

2 a nd he said to Aaron, “Take a calf from the herd for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering, without defect, and offer them before Yahweh.

3 Y ou 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 defect, for a burnt offering;

4 a nd a bull and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before Yahweh; and a meal offering mixed with oil: for today Yahweh appears to you.’”

5 T hey brought what Moses commanded before the Tent of Meeting: and all the congregation came near and stood before Yahweh.

6 M oses said, “This is the thing which Yahweh commanded that you should do: and Yahweh’s glory shall appear to you.”

7 M oses 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 Yahweh commanded.”

8 S o Aaron came near to the altar, and killed the calf of the sin offering, which was for himself.

9 T he 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 b ut the fat, and the kidneys, and the cover from the liver of the sin offering, he burned upon the altar; as Yahweh commanded Moses.

11 T he flesh and the skin he burned with fire outside the camp.

12 H e killed the burnt offering; and Aaron’s sons delivered the blood to him, and he sprinkled it around on the altar.

13 T hey delivered the burnt offering to him, piece by piece, and the head: and he burned them upon the altar.

14 H e washed the innards and the legs, and burned them on the burnt offering on the altar.

15 H e presented the people’s offering, and took the goat of the sin offering which was for the people, and killed it, and offered it for sin, like the first.

16 H e presented the burnt offering, and offered it according to the ordinance.

17 H e presented the meal offering, and filled his hand from there, and burned it upon the altar, besides the burnt offering of the morning.

18 H e also killed the bull and the ram, the sacrifice of peace offerings, which was for the people: and Aaron’s sons delivered to him the blood, which he sprinkled around on the altar,

19 a nd the fat of the bull and of the ram, the fat tail, and that which covers the innards, and the kidneys, and the cover of the liver:

20 a nd they put the fat upon the breasts, and he burned the fat on the altar:

21 a nd the breasts and the right thigh Aaron waved for a wave offering before Yahweh, as Moses commanded.

22 A aron lifted up his hands toward the people, and blessed them; and he came down from offering the sin offering, and the burnt offering, and the peace offerings.

23 M oses and Aaron went into the Tent of Meeting, and came out, and blessed the people: and Yahweh’s glory appeared to all the people.

24 F ire came out from before Yahweh, and consumed the burnt offering and the fat upon the altar. When all the people saw it, they shouted, and fell on their faces.
