Leviticus 8:1-13

Complete Jewish Bible

8 (iv) Adonai said to Moshe, ² “Take Aharon and his sons with him, the garments, the anointing oil, the bull for the sin offering, the two rams and the basket of matzah; ³ and assemble the entire community at the entrance to the tent of meeting.” ⁴ Moshe did as Adonai ordered him, and the community was assembled at the entrance to the tent of meeting. ⁵ Moshe said to the community, “This is what Adonai has ordered to be done.”

⁶ Moshe brought Aharon and his sons, washed them with water, ⁷ put the tunic on him, wrapped the sash around him, clothed him with the robe, put the ritual vest on him, wrapped around him the decorated belt and fastened the vest to him with it. ⁸ He put the breastplate on him, and on the breastplate he put the urim and tumim. ⁹ He set the turban on his head, and on the front of the turban he affixed the gold plate, the holy ornament, as Adonai had ordered Moshe.

¹⁰ Then Moshe took the anointing oil and anointed the tabernacle and everything in it, thus consecrating them. ¹¹ He sprinkled some on the altar seven times, anointing the altar with all its utensils and the basin with its base, to consecrate them. ¹² He poured some of the anointing oil on Aharon’s head and anointed him, to consecrate him. ¹³ Moshe brought Aharon’s sons, clothed them with tunics, wrapped sashes on them and put headgear on them, as Adonai had ordered Moshe.
