Éxodo 29
La Biblia de las Américas
Consagración de Aarón y de sus hijos
29 (A)Esto es lo que les harás para consagrarlos para que me sirvan como sacerdotes: toma un novillo y dos carneros sin defecto; 2 y pan sin levadura, y tortas sin levadura amasadas con aceite, y hojaldres sin levadura untados con aceite(B); los harás de flor de harina de trigo. 3 Los pondrás en una cesta, y los presentarás en la cesta junto con el novillo y los dos carneros. 4 Después harás que Aarón y sus hijos se acerquen a la entrada de la tienda de reunión, y los lavarás con agua(C). 5 Y tomarás las vestiduras y pondrás sobre Aarón la túnica(D), el manto del efod(E), el efod(F) y el pectoral[a](G), y lo ceñirás con el cinto tejido del efod(H); 6 y pondrás la tiara(I) sobre su cabeza, y sobre la tiara pondrás la diadema santa(J). 7 Luego tomarás el aceite de la unción, y lo derramarás sobre su cabeza, y lo ungirás(K). 8 También harás que sus hijos se acerquen y pondrás túnicas sobre ellos(L). 9 Y les ceñirás los cinturones(M) a Aarón y a sus hijos, y les atarás las mitras, y tendrán el sacerdocio por estatuto perpetuo(N). Así consagrarás a Aarón y a[b] sus hijos(O).
10 Entonces llevarás el novillo delante de la tienda de reunión, y Aarón y sus hijos pondrán sus manos sobre la cabeza del novillo(P). 11 Y matarás el novillo delante del Señor, a la entrada de la tienda de reunión. 12 Tomarás de la sangre del novillo y la pondrás sobre los cuernos(Q) del altar con tu dedo; y derramarás toda la sangre al pie del altar(R). 13 Y tomarás todo el sebo que cubre las entrañas, el lóbulo del[c] hígado y los dos riñones, y el sebo que hay sobre ellos(S), y los ofrecerás quemándolos sobre el altar. 14 Pero la carne del novillo y su piel y su estiércol quemarás con fuego fuera del campamento; es ofrenda por el pecado(T).
15 También tomarás uno de los carneros, y Aarón y sus hijos pondrán sus manos sobre la cabeza del carnero(U). 16 Y matarás el carnero, y tomarás su sangre y la rociarás en el altar por todos los lados. 17 Luego cortarás el carnero en[d] pedazos, y lavarás sus entrañas y sus piernas, y las pondrás con[e] sus pedazos y con[f] su cabeza; 18 y quemarás todo el carnero sobre el altar; es holocausto al Señor, aroma agradable al Señor, ofrenda encendida al Señor(V).
19 Entonces tomarás el otro[g] carnero, y Aarón y sus hijos pondrán sus manos sobre la cabeza del carnero(W). 20 Y matarás el carnero, y tomarás de su sangre y la pondrás sobre el lóbulo de la oreja derecha de Aarón, y sobre el lóbulo de la oreja derecha de sus hijos, y sobre el pulgar de su mano derecha, y sobre el pulgar de su pie derecho, y rociarás el resto de la sangre en el altar por todos los lados. 21 Después tomarás de la sangre que está sobre el altar y del aceite de la unción, y lo rociarás sobre Aarón y sobre sus vestiduras, y sobre sus hijos y sobre las vestiduras de sus hijos[h]; y quedarán consagrados él y sus vestiduras, y también sus hijos y las vestiduras de sus hijos con él(X). 22 Tomarás también el sebo del carnero, la cola gorda, el sebo que cubre las entrañas, el lóbulo del[i] hígado, los dos riñones y el sebo que hay sobre ellos, la pierna derecha (porque es un carnero de consagración[j]), 23 y una torta de pan, una torta de pan con aceite y un hojaldre de la cesta de pan sin levadura que está delante del Señor(Y). 24 Lo pondrás todo en las manos[k] de Aarón y en las manos[l] de sus hijos; y lo mecerás como ofrenda mecida delante del Señor. 25 Luego lo tomarás de sus manos y lo quemarás en el altar sobre el holocausto como aroma agradable delante del Señor; es ofrenda encendida al Señor(Z).
26 Entonces tomarás el pecho del carnero de la consagración de[m] Aarón(AA), y lo mecerás como ofrenda mecida delante del Señor(AB); y esa será tu porción. 27 Y consagrarás el pecho de la ofrenda mecida y la pierna de la ofrenda alzada, lo que fue mecido y lo que fue alzado del carnero de consagración, de lo que era para Aarón y de lo que era para sus hijos. 28 Esto será como porción perpetua[n] de parte de los hijos de Israel para Aarón y sus hijos, porque es ofrenda alzada; y será una ofrenda alzada de los hijos de Israel, de los sacrificios de sus ofrendas de paz, su ofrenda alzada al Señor.
29 Y las vestiduras sagradas de Aarón serán para sus hijos después de él(AC), para que en ellas sean ungidos y consagrados[o]. 30 Por siete días las vestirá aquel de sus hijos que tome su lugar como sacerdote, cuando entre en la tienda de reunión para ministrar en el lugar santo.
31 Y tomarás el carnero de consagración y cocerás su carne en lugar santo(AD). 32 Y Aarón y sus hijos comerán la carne del carnero y el pan que está en la cesta, a la entrada de la tienda de reunión. 33 Así comerán las cosas[p] con las cuales se hizo expiación en la ordenación y consagración de ellos[q](AE); mas el laico[r] no las comerá, porque son sagradas(AF). 34 Y si sobra algo de la carne de consagración o algo del pan hasta la mañana siguiente, quemarás al fuego lo que haya sobrado(AG); no se comerá, porque es sagrado.
35 Así harás, pues, a Aarón y a sus hijos, conforme a todo lo que te he mandado; por siete días los consagrarás[s](AH). 36 Y cada día ofrecerás en expiación un novillo como ofrenda por el pecado(AI); y purificarás el altar[t] cuando hagas expiación sobre él, y lo ungirás para santificarlo(AJ). 37 Durante siete días harás expiación por el altar, y lo santificarás; entonces el altar será santísimo, y todo lo que toque el altar será santificado(AK).
Ofrendas diarias
38 (AL)Esto es lo que ofrecerás sobre el altar: dos corderos de un año cada día, continuamente. 39 Ofrecerás uno de los corderos por la mañana(AM) y el otro[u] cordero lo ofrecerás al atardecer[v]; 40 y ofrecerás una décima de un efa de flor de harina mezclada con un cuarto de hin[w] de aceite batido, y para la libación, un cuarto de hin de vino con un cordero. 41 Y ofrecerás el otro[x] cordero al atardecer[y]; y con él ofrecerás la misma[z] ofrenda de cereal y la misma[aa] libación que por la mañana, como aroma agradable: una ofrenda encendida al Señor. 42 Será holocausto continuo por vuestras generaciones a la entrada de la tienda de reunión, delante del Señor, donde yo me encontraré con vosotros, para hablar allí contigo(AN). 43 Y me encontraré allí con los hijos de Israel, y el lugar será santificado por mi gloria. 44 Santificaré la tienda de reunión y el altar; también santificaré a Aarón y a sus hijos para que me sirvan como sacerdotes. 45 Y habitaré entre los hijos de Israel, y seré su Dios(AO). 46 Y conocerán que yo soy el Señor su Dios, que los saqué de la tierra de Egipto para morar yo en medio de ellos. Yo soy el Señor su Dios(AP).

Instructions for the priests’ ordination
29 Now this is what you should do to make them holy in order to serve me as priests. Take a young bull and two flawless rams. 2 Take unleavened bread, unleavened flatbread made with oil, and unleavened wafers spread with oil. Make them out of high-quality wheat flour. 3 Put them all in one basket and present them in the basket along with the bull and the two rams. 4 Present Aaron and his sons at the entrance to the meeting tent and wash them with water. 5 Then take the priestly clothes and put them on Aaron: the tunic, the vest’s robe, the vest itself, and the chest pendant. Put the vest on him with the vest’s belt. 6 Set the turban on his head and place the holy crown on the turban. 7 Take the anointing oil and pour it on his head to anoint him. 8 Then present his sons and put the tunics on them. 9 Tighten the sashes on them, on both Aaron and his sons. Wrap the turbans on their heads. It will be a permanent regulation that the duties of priesthood belong to them. In this way, you will ordain Aaron and his sons.
10 Present the bull at the front of the meeting tent. Aaron and his sons will lay their hands on the bull’s head. 11 Then slaughter the bull in the Lord’s presence at the meeting tent’s entrance. 12 Take some of the bull’s blood and smear it on the altar’s horns with your finger. Pour out the rest of the blood at the altar’s base. 13 Then take all the fat that covers the inner organs, the lobe of the liver, and the two kidneys along with the fat that is on them, and burn them up in smoke on the altar. 14 Burn the rest of the meat of the bull, its hide, and the intestines with their contents with a fire outside the camp. It is a purification offering.
15 Choose one of the rams, and have Aaron and his sons lay their hands on the ram’s head. 16 Then slaughter the ram. Take its blood and throw it against all the altar’s sides. 17 Cut up the ram into parts. Wash its inner organs and legs, and put them together with its parts and its head. 18 Then turn the entire ram into smoke by burning it on the altar. It is an entirely burned offering for the Lord, a soothing smell, a food gift for the Lord.
19 Take the second ram, and have Aaron and his sons lay their hands on the ram’s head. 20 Slaughter the ram. Take some of its blood and smear it on the right earlobes of Aaron and his sons, on the thumbs of their right hands, and on the big toes of their right feet. Throw the rest of the blood against all the altar’s sides. 21 Then take some of the blood on the altar and some of the anointing oil and sprinkle them on Aaron and on his clothes and on his sons and on his sons’ clothes. In this way, Aaron, his sons, and all their priestly garments will be holy.
22 Take the fatty parts of the ram: the fat tail, the fat around the inner organs, the lobe of the liver, the two kidneys with the fat around them, and the right thigh (because it is a ram for ordination). 23 Add one loaf of bread, one flatbread made with oil, and one wafer from the basket of unleavened bread that was presented to the Lord. 24 Place all of these in the hands of Aaron and his sons, and lift them as an uplifted offering in the Lord’s presence. 25 Then take them from their hands and turn them into smoke by burning them on the altar with the entirely burned offering as a soothing smell in the Lord’s presence. It is a food gift for the Lord.
26 Take the breast of the ram for Aaron’s ordination and lift it as an uplifted offering in the Lord’s presence. It will be your portion. 27 Make holy the breast that was lifted for the uplifted offering and the thigh that was raised for the gift offering from the ram for the ordination. They belong to Aaron and his sons. 28 Those parts will be given to Aaron and his sons from the Israelites as a permanent provision, because they are a gift offering. They will be a gift offering from the Israelites, their gift offering to the Lord from their well-being sacrifices.
29 Aaron’s holy clothes should be passed on to his sons after him. His sons should be anointed in them and ordained in them. 30 The son who is priest in his place should wear them seven days when he comes into the meeting tent to minister in the sanctuary.
31 Take the ram for the ordination and boil its meat in a holy place. 32 Aaron and his sons will eat the ram’s meat and the bread that is in the basket at the meeting tent’s entrance. 33 They alone should eat the food that was used to purify them, to ordain them, and to make them holy. No one else should eat it because it is holy. 34 If any meat for the ordination or any of the bread is left over until morning, then you should burn the leftovers with fire. It shouldn’t be eaten because it’s holy.
35 Treat Aaron and his sons just as I have commanded you. Ordain them for seven days. 36 Every day you should offer a bull as a purification offering for reconciliation. You should remove the sin from the altar through a ritual of reconciliation, and you should anoint the altar to make it holy. 37 Seven days you should perform the ritual of reconciliation for the altar and make it holy. In this way, the altar will become most holy, and whatever touches the altar will also become holy.
Instructions for daily entirely burned offerings
38 Now this is what you should offer on the altar: two one-year-old lambs regularly every day. 39 Offer one lamb in the morning and offer the other lamb at twilight. 40 With the first lamb, add one-tenth of a measure of the high-quality flour mixed with a quarter of a hin[a] of oil from crushed olives and a quarter of a hin of wine for a drink offering. 41 With the second lamb offered at twilight, again include a grain offering and its drink offering as in the morning as a soothing smell, a gift offering for the Lord. 42 This should be the regular entirely burned offering in every generation at the meeting tent’s entrance in the Lord’s presence. There I will meet with you, and there I will speak to you. 43 I will meet with the Israelites there, and it will be made holy by my glorious presence. 44 I will make the meeting tent and the altar holy. Likewise, I will make Aaron and his sons holy to serve me as priests. 45 I will be at home among the Israelites, and I will be their God. 46 They will know that I am the Lord their God, who brought them out of the land of Egypt so that I could make a home among them. I am the Lord their God.

Exodus 29
New International Version
Consecration of the Priests(A)
29 “This is what you are to do to consecrate(B) them, so they may serve me as priests: Take a young bull and two rams without defect.(C) 2 And from the finest wheat flour make round loaves without yeast, thick loaves without yeast and with olive oil mixed in, and thin loaves without yeast and brushed with olive oil.(D) 3 Put them in a basket and present them along with the bull and the two rams.(E) 4 Then bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance to the tent of meeting and wash them with water.(F) 5 Take the garments(G) and dress Aaron with the tunic, the robe of the ephod, the ephod itself and the breastpiece. Fasten the ephod on him by its skillfully woven waistband.(H) 6 Put the turban(I) on his head and attach the sacred emblem(J) to the turban. 7 Take the anointing oil(K) and anoint him by pouring it on his head. 8 Bring his sons and dress them in tunics(L) 9 and fasten caps on them. Then tie sashes on Aaron and his sons.[a](M) The priesthood is theirs by a lasting ordinance.(N)
“Then you shall ordain Aaron and his sons.
10 “Bring the bull to the front of the tent of meeting, and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on its head.(O) 11 Slaughter it in the Lord’s presence(P) at the entrance to the tent of meeting. 12 Take some of the bull’s blood and put it on the horns(Q) of the altar with your finger, and pour out the rest of it at the base of the altar.(R) 13 Then take all the fat(S) on the internal organs,(T) the long lobe of the liver, and both kidneys with the fat on them, and burn them on the altar. 14 But burn the bull’s flesh and its hide and its intestines(U) outside the camp.(V) It is a sin offering.[b]
15 “Take one of the rams,(W) and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on its head.(X) 16 Slaughter it and take the blood and splash it against the sides of the altar. 17 Cut the ram into pieces and wash(Y) the internal organs and the legs, putting them with the head and the other pieces. 18 Then burn the entire ram on the altar. It is a burnt offering to the Lord, a pleasing aroma,(Z) a food offering presented to the Lord.
19 “Take the other ram,(AA) and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on its head.(AB) 20 Slaughter it, take some of its blood and put it on the lobes of the right ears of Aaron and his sons, on the thumbs of their right hands, and on the big toes of their right feet.(AC) Then splash blood against the sides of the altar.(AD) 21 And take some blood(AE) from the altar and some of the anointing oil(AF) and sprinkle it on Aaron and his garments and on his sons and their garments. Then he and his sons and their garments will be consecrated.(AG)
22 “Take from this ram the fat,(AH) the fat tail, the fat on the internal organs, the long lobe of the liver, both kidneys with the fat on them, and the right thigh. (This is the ram for the ordination.) 23 From the basket of bread made without yeast, which is before the Lord, take one round loaf, one thick loaf with olive oil mixed in, and one thin loaf. 24 Put all these in the hands of Aaron and his sons and have them wave them before the Lord as a wave offering.(AI) 25 Then take them from their hands and burn them on the altar along with the burnt offering for a pleasing aroma to the Lord, a food offering presented to the Lord.(AJ) 26 After you take the breast of the ram for Aaron’s ordination, wave it before the Lord as a wave offering, and it will be your share.(AK)
27 “Consecrate those parts of the ordination ram that belong to Aaron and his sons:(AL) the breast that was waved and the thigh that was presented. 28 This is always to be the perpetual share from the Israelites for Aaron and his sons. It is the contribution the Israelites are to make to the Lord from their fellowship offerings.(AM)
29 “Aaron’s sacred garments(AN) will belong to his descendants so that they can be anointed and ordained in them.(AO) 30 The son(AP) who succeeds him as priest and comes to the tent of meeting to minister in the Holy Place is to wear them seven days.
31 “Take the ram(AQ) for the ordination and cook the meat in a sacred place.(AR) 32 At the entrance to the tent of meeting, Aaron and his sons are to eat the meat of the ram and the bread(AS) that is in the basket. 33 They are to eat these offerings by which atonement was made for their ordination and consecration. But no one else may eat(AT) them, because they are sacred. 34 And if any of the meat of the ordination ram or any bread is left over till morning,(AU) burn it up. It must not be eaten, because it is sacred.
35 “Do for Aaron and his sons everything I have commanded you, taking seven days to ordain them. 36 Sacrifice a bull each day(AV) as a sin offering to make atonement(AW). Purify the altar by making atonement for it, and anoint it to consecrate(AX) it. 37 For seven days make atonement for the altar and consecrate it. Then the altar will be most holy, and whatever touches it will be holy.(AY)
38 “This is what you are to offer on the altar regularly each day:(AZ) two lambs a year old. 39 Offer one in the morning and the other at twilight.(BA) 40 With the first lamb offer a tenth of an ephah[c] of the finest flour mixed with a quarter of a hin[d] of oil(BB) from pressed olives, and a quarter of a hin of wine as a drink offering.(BC) 41 Sacrifice the other lamb at twilight(BD) with the same grain offering(BE) and its drink offering as in the morning—a pleasing aroma, a food offering presented to the Lord.
42 “For the generations to come(BF) this burnt offering is to be made regularly(BG) at the entrance to the tent of meeting,(BH) before the Lord. There I will meet you and speak to you;(BI) 43 there also I will meet with the Israelites, and the place will be consecrated by my glory.(BJ)
44 “So I will consecrate the tent of meeting and the altar and will consecrate Aaron and his sons to serve me as priests.(BK) 45 Then I will dwell(BL) among the Israelites and be their God.(BM) 46 They will know that I am the Lord their God, who brought them out of Egypt(BN) so that I might dwell among them. I am the Lord their God.(BO)
