You may eat it there, along with the bread that is in the basket for consecration, just as I've commanded when I told him, 'Aaron and his sons may eat of it, |
| 32but the remainder of the meat and the bread you must burn with fire. | 32but the leftover meat and bread is to be incinerated.' |
| 33And you must not go out from the entrance of the Meeting Tent for seven days, until the day when your days of ordination are completed, because you must be ordained over a seven-day period. | 33Furthermore, you are not to go out past the entrance to the Tent of Meeting until the days of your ordination have been completed, since it will take seven days to ordain you. |
| 34What has been done on this day the LORD has commanded to be done to make atonement for you. | 34What has been done today has been commanded by the LORD to make atonement for you. |
| 35You must reside at the entrance of the Meeting Tent day and night for seven days and keep the charge of the LORD so that you will not die, for this is what I have been commanded." | 35Stay seven days and nights at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and attend to the service of the LORD, so that you won't die, because this is what I've commanded." |
| 36So Aaron and his sons did all the things the LORD had commanded through Moses. | 36So Aaron and his sons did everything that the LORD had commanded through Moses. |
