| 1After the ordination ceremony, on the eighth day, Moses called together Aaron and his sons and the elders of Israel. | 1On the eighth day Moses summoned Aaron and his sons and the elders of Israel, |
| 2He said to Aaron, “Take a young bull for a sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering, both without defects, and present them to the LORD. | 2and said to Aaron, "Take for yourself a bull calf for a sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering, both flawless, and present them before the LORD. |
| 3Then tell the Israelites, ‘Take a male goat for a sin offering, and take a calf and a lamb, both a year old and without defects, for a burnt offering. | 3Then tell the Israelites: 'Take a male goat for a sin offering and a calf and lamb, both a year old and flawless, for a burnt offering, |
| 4Also take a bull and a ram for a peace offering and flour moistened with olive oil for a grain offering. Present all these offerings to the LORD because the LORD will appear to you today.’” | 4and an ox and a ram for peace offerings to sacrifice before the LORD, and a grain offering mixed with olive oil, for today the LORD is going to appear to you.'" |
| 5So the people presented all these things at the entrance of the Tabernacle, just as Moses had commanded. Then the whole community came forward and stood before the LORD. | 5So they took what Moses had commanded to the front of the Meeting Tent and the whole congregation presented them and stood before the LORD. |
| 6And Moses said, “This is what the LORD has commanded you to do so that the glory of the LORD may appear to you.” | 6Then Moses said, "This is what the LORD has commanded you to do so that the glory of the LORD may appear to you." |
| 7Then Moses said to Aaron, “Come to the altar and sacrifice your sin offering and your burnt offering to purify yourself and the people. Then present the offerings of the people to purify them, making them right with the LORD, just as he has commanded.” | 7Moses then said to Aaron, "Approach the altar and make your sin offering and your burnt offering, and make atonement on behalf of yourself and on behalf of the people; and also make the people's offering and make atonement on behalf of them just as the LORD has commanded." |
| 8So Aaron went to the altar and slaughtered the calf as a sin offering for himself. | 8So Aaron approached the altar and slaughtered the sin offering calf which was for himself. |
| 9His sons brought him the blood, and he dipped his finger in it and put it on the horns of the altar. He poured out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar. | 9Then Aaron's sons presented the blood to him and he dipped his finger in the blood and put it on the horns of the altar, and the rest of the blood he poured out at the base of the altar. |
| 10Then he burned on the altar the fat, the kidneys, and the long lobe of the liver from the sin offering, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. | 10The fat and the kidneys and the protruding lobe of the liver from the sin offering he offered up in smoke on the altar just as the LORD had commanded Moses, |
| 11The meat and the hide, however, he burned outside the camp. | 11but the flesh and the hide he completely burned up outside the camp. |
| 12Next Aaron slaughtered the animal for the burnt offering. His sons brought him the blood, and he splattered it against all sides of the altar. | 12He then slaughtered the burnt offering, and his sons handed the blood to him and he splashed it against the altar's sides. |
| 13Then they handed him each piece of the burnt offering, including the head, and he burned them on the altar. | 13The burnt offering itself they handed to him by its parts, including the head, and he offered them up in smoke on the altar, |
| 14Then he washed the internal organs and the legs and burned them on the altar along with the rest of the burnt offering. | 14and he washed the entrails and the legs and offered them up in smoke on top of the burnt offering on the altar. |
| 15Next Aaron presented the offerings of the people. He slaughtered the people’s goat and presented it as an offering for their sin, just as he had first done with the offering for his own sin. | 15Then he presented the people's offering. He took the sin offering male goat which was for the people, slaughtered it, and performed a decontamination rite with it like the first one. |
| 16Then he presented the burnt offering and sacrificed it in the prescribed way. | 16He then presented the burnt offering, and did it according to the standard regulation. |
| 17He also presented the grain offering, burning a handful of the flour mixture on the altar, in addition to the regular burnt offering for the morning. | 17Next he presented the grain offering, filled his hand with some of it, and offered it up in smoke on the altar in addition to the morning burnt offering. |
| 18Then Aaron slaughtered the bull and the ram for the people’s peace offering. His sons brought him the blood, and he splattered it against all sides of the altar. | 18Then he slaughtered the ox and the ram--the peace offering sacrifices which were for the people--and Aaron's sons handed the blood to him and he splashed it against the altar's sides. |
| 19Then he took the fat of the bull and the ram—the fat of the broad tail and from around the internal organs—along with the kidneys and the long lobes of the livers. | 19As for the fat parts from the ox and from the ram (the fatty tail, the fat covering the entrails, the kidneys, and the protruding lobe of the liver), |
| 20He placed these fat portions on top of the breasts of these animals and burned them on the altar. | 20they set those on the breasts and he offered the fat parts up in smoke on the altar. |
| 21Aaron then lifted up the breasts and right thighs as a special offering to the LORD, just as Moses had commanded. | 21Finally Aaron waved the breasts and the right thigh as a wave offering before the LORD just as Moses had commanded. |
| 22After that, Aaron raised his hands toward the people and blessed them. Then, after presenting the sin offering, the burnt offering, and the peace offering, he stepped down from the altar. | 22Then Aaron lifted up his hands toward the people and blessed them and descended from making the sin offering, the burnt offering, and the peace offering. |
| 23Then Moses and Aaron went into the Tabernacle, and when they came back out, they blessed the people again, and the glory of the LORD appeared to the whole community. | 23Moses and Aaron then entered into the Meeting Tent. When they came out, they blessed the people, and the glory of the LORD appeared to all the people. |
| 24Fire blazed forth from the LORD’s presence and consumed the burnt offering and the fat on the altar. When the people saw this, they shouted with joy and fell face down on the ground. | 24Then fire went out from the presence of the LORD and consumed the burnt offering and the fat parts on the altar, and all the people saw it, so they shouted loudly and fell down with their faces to the ground. |
