膏立亞倫父子們做祭司
8 耶和華對摩西說： 2 「你把亞倫父子們帶來，也要帶聖衣、膏油、一頭作贖罪祭的公牛、兩隻公綿羊和一籃無酵餅， 3 然後把全體會眾招聚到會幕門前。」 4 摩西按照耶和華的指示行事，會眾都聚集在會幕門前。
5 摩西告訴會眾：「這是耶和華吩咐我做的事。」 6 他把亞倫父子們帶來，用水洗他們。 7 摩西給亞倫穿上內袍，束上腰帶，穿上外袍，套上以弗得，用精巧的帶子把以弗得繫在亞倫身上， 8 然後給他戴上胸牌，把烏陵和土明放在胸牌內， 9 再把禮冠戴在他頭上，在禮冠前繫上金牌，即聖冠，都遵照耶和華的吩咐。
10 摩西拿膏油抹聖幕和聖幕裡的一切物件，使它們聖潔； 11 再用膏油在祭壇上灑七次，又抹祭壇和祭壇上的器具、洗濯盆和盆座，使它們聖潔。 12 然後，摩西把膏油倒在亞倫頭上膏立他，使他聖潔。 13 摩西又把亞倫的兒子們帶來，給他們穿上內袍，束上腰帶，裹上頭巾，都遵照耶和華的吩咐。
14 摩西牽來那頭作贖罪祭的公牛，亞倫父子們把手放在牛頭上。 15 摩西宰了牛，用手指蘸一些牛血抹在祭壇的四角上，以潔淨祭壇；把剩下的血倒在祭壇腳旁，使祭壇聖潔。 16 他取出遮蓋內臟的脂肪、肝葉、兩個腎臟和腎臟上的脂肪，放在壇上焚燒， 17 又照耶和華的吩咐，把公牛的皮、肉和糞便帶到營外燒掉。
18 然後，摩西獻上作燔祭的公綿羊，亞倫父子們把手放在羊頭上。 19 摩西宰了那隻羊，將羊血灑在祭壇周圍； 20 把羊切成塊，焚燒羊頭、肉塊和脂肪； 21 用水洗淨羊的內臟和腿，放在壇上焚燒，作蒙耶和華悅納的馨香火祭，都遵照耶和華的吩咐。
22 摩西獻上另一隻為授聖職而獻的公綿羊。亞倫父子們把手放在羊頭上。 23 摩西宰了羊，將一些羊血抹在亞倫的右耳垂、右手大拇指和右腳大腳趾上。 24 他又把亞倫的兒子們帶來，將一些血抹在他們的右耳垂、右手大拇指和右腳大腳趾上，然後把剩下的血都灑在祭壇四周。 25 他取下羊的右腿和脂肪，即肥尾巴、遮蓋內臟的脂肪、肝葉、兩個腎臟和腎臟上的脂肪， 26 又從放在耶和華面前盛無酵餅的籃子中取一個無酵餅、一個油餅和一個薄餅，放在羊的右腿和脂肪上。 27 他把這些放在亞倫父子們的手上，作為搖祭在耶和華面前搖一搖。 28 隨後，他從他們手上拿過這些祭物，放在祭壇的燔祭上焚燒，作為授聖職時獻的祭。這是蒙耶和華悅納的馨香火祭。 29 摩西又把祭牲的胸肉作為搖祭在耶和華面前搖一搖，這是他授聖職時所應得之份，都遵照耶和華的吩咐。
30 摩西拿了一些膏油和壇上的血，灑在亞倫和他的衣服上，也灑在他兒子們和他們的衣服上，使亞倫父子們和他們的衣服聖潔。
31 摩西對亞倫父子們說：「你們要照我的指示在會幕門口煮祭肉吃，也要吃籃子裡為授聖職而獻的餅。 32 吃剩的肉和餅，你們要燒掉。 33 你們的聖職禮為期七天，這七天之內，你們不可走出會幕門口。 34 今天所做的這一切都是耶和華吩咐的，是為你們贖罪。 35 七天之內，你們必須日夜待在會幕門口，要遵守耶和華的吩咐，免得你們死亡。這是耶和華對我的吩咐。」 36 於是，亞倫父子們遵行了耶和華藉摩西吩咐的一切。
亞倫獻祭
9 第八天，摩西召來亞倫父子們和以色列的眾長老。 2 他對亞倫說：「你要在耶和華面前獻上一頭公牛犢作贖罪祭、一隻公綿羊作燔祭，這些祭牲都要毫無殘疾。 3 然後，你要告訴以色列人，『你們要取一隻公山羊作贖罪祭、毫無殘疾的一歲牛犢和羊羔各一隻作燔祭、 4 公牛和公綿羊各一隻作平安祭，連同調油的素祭一起獻給耶和華，因為今天耶和華要向你們顯現。』」 5 於是，以色列人遵照摩西的吩咐，把祭物帶到會幕前。全體會眾都聚集到那裡，站在耶和華面前。 6 摩西對他們說：「耶和華吩咐你們這樣做，是為了向你們顯出祂的榮耀。」 7 隨後，摩西對亞倫說：「你要到壇前來，獻上你的贖罪祭和燔祭，為自己和民眾贖罪。也要按照耶和華的吩咐，為百姓獻上他們的祭物，為他們贖罪。」
8 於是，亞倫走到壇前，宰殺為他作贖罪祭的牛犢。 9 他兒子們把牛犢的血遞給他，他用手指蘸血抹在壇角上，將剩下的血倒在壇腳旁。 10 他照耶和華對摩西的吩咐，在壇上焚燒牛犢的脂肪、腎臟和肝葉， 11 把皮和肉帶到營外焚燒。
12 亞倫宰了燔祭祭牲，他兒子們把祭牲的血遞給他灑在祭壇四周。 13 他們將祭牲切成塊，連頭顱一起交給亞倫獻在壇上焚燒。 14 亞倫洗淨祭牲的內臟和腿，放在祭壇的燔祭上焚燒。
15 隨後，亞倫為民眾獻祭。他牽來那隻為民眾作贖罪祭的公山羊，宰殺後，像剛才為自己獻贖罪祭一樣為他們獻上贖罪祭。 16 他又牽來燔祭祭牲，依照條例獻上燔祭。 17 除了早晨的燔祭，亞倫又取來素祭，從中拿了一把獻在壇上焚燒。 18 然後，他宰了公牛和公綿羊，為民眾獻平安祭。他兒子們把祭牲的血遞給他，他把血灑在祭壇四周。 19 他們把公牛和公綿羊的脂肪，即肥尾巴、遮蓋內臟的脂肪、腎臟和肝葉， 20 放在祭牲的胸上，然後亞倫把那些脂肪放在壇上焚燒， 21 將胸肉和右腿肉作為搖祭在耶和華面前搖一搖，都遵照摩西的吩咐。
22 亞倫獻完贖罪祭、燔祭和平安祭，舉手為民眾祝福後，走下祭壇。 23 之後，摩西和亞倫走進會幕，又出來為民眾祝福。這時，耶和華的榮耀向所有民眾顯現。 24 有火從耶和華那裡降下來，燒盡祭壇上的燔祭和脂肪。民眾看見這景象，都歡呼起來，俯伏在地。
拿答和亞比戶之死
10 亞倫的兒子拿答和亞比戶各拿自己的香爐，點火加香，在耶和華面前獻上凡火。他們這樣做不合耶和華的吩咐。 2 於是，有火從耶和華面前出來吞噬了他們，他們就死在耶和華面前。 3 摩西告訴亞倫：「耶和華曾說過，『我要在事奉我的人[a]中顯明我的聖潔，在所有子民面前彰顯我的榮耀。』」亞倫默默無言。 4 摩西叫來亞倫的叔父烏薛的兒子米沙利和以利撒反，對他們說：「過來，把你們弟兄的屍體從聖所前抬到營外去。」 5 他們就遵照摩西的吩咐，把仍穿著內袍的屍體抬到營外。 6 摩西對亞倫和他剩下的兩個兒子以利亞撒和以他瑪說：「你們不要蓬頭散髮，也不要撕裂衣服，免得你們死亡，也免得耶和華向全體會眾發怒。不過，你們的所有以色列同胞都可以為耶和華用火燒死的人哀傷。 7 你們不可走出會幕門口，否則你們都會死，因為耶和華的膏油在你們身上。」他們就遵照摩西的話去做。
有關祭司的條例
8 耶和華對亞倫說： 9 「你和你兒子們進會幕前，淡酒烈酒都不可喝，否則你們都會死。你們世世代代都要遵守這永遠的條例。 10 你們必須明辨什麼是聖潔的、什麼是世俗的，什麼是潔淨的、什麼是不潔淨的。 11 你們必須將我藉摩西賜給以色列人的一切律例教導他們。」
12 摩西對亞倫及其兩個兒子以利亞撒和以他瑪說：「你們要把獻給耶和華的火祭中剩下的素祭做成無酵餅，在壇邊吃，因為這是至聖之物。 13 你們要在聖潔之處吃，因為在獻給耶和華的火祭中，這是你們和你們的子孫應得之份。這是耶和華對我的吩咐。 14 至於作搖祭的胸肉和作舉祭的腿肉，你們和你們的子孫可以在潔淨的地方吃。因為在以色列人所獻的平安祭中，這是你們應得之份。 15 在獻火祭的脂肪時，要把作舉祭的腿肉和作搖祭的胸肉一起帶到耶和華面前，這些永遠是你們和你們的子孫應得之份，正如耶和華的吩咐。」
16 摩西到處尋找那隻作贖罪祭的公山羊，卻發現那隻羊已經被焚燒了。他憤怒地對亞倫剩下的兩個兒子以利亞撒和以他瑪說： 17 「你們為什麼不在聖潔之處吃這贖罪祭？這是至聖之物，耶和華賜給你們是要叫你們為會眾擔罪，在耶和華面前為他們贖罪。 18 既然這祭牲的血沒有被帶進聖所，你們本應按照我的吩咐在聖潔之處吃這祭肉。」 19 亞倫對摩西說：「看啊，他們今天向耶和華獻贖罪祭和燔祭，卻有這樣的災禍發生在我身上。今天我如果吃了這贖罪祭的祭肉，耶和華會悅納嗎？」 20 摩西對亞倫的回答感到滿意。

Leviticus 8-10
New International Version
Leviticus 8-10
New International Version
The Ordination of Aaron and His Sons(A)
8 The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Bring Aaron and his sons,(B) their garments,(C) the anointing oil,(D) the bull for the sin offering,[a](E) the two rams(F) and the basket containing bread made without yeast,(G) 3 and gather the entire assembly(H) at the entrance to the tent of meeting.” 4 Moses did as the Lord commanded him, and the assembly gathered at the entrance to the tent of meeting.
5 Moses said to the assembly, “This is what the Lord has commanded to be done.(I)” 6 Then Moses brought Aaron and his sons forward and washed them with water.(J) 7 He put the tunic on Aaron, tied the sash around him, clothed him with the robe and put the ephod on him. He also fastened the ephod with a decorative waistband, which he tied around him.(K) 8 He placed the breastpiece(L) on him and put the Urim and Thummim(M) in the breastpiece. 9 Then he placed the turban(N) on Aaron’s head and set the gold plate, the sacred emblem,(O) on the front of it, as the Lord commanded Moses.(P)
10 Then Moses took the anointing oil(Q) and anointed(R) the tabernacle(S) and everything in it, and so consecrated them. 11 He sprinkled some of the oil on the altar seven times, anointing the altar and all its utensils and the basin with its stand, to consecrate them.(T) 12 He poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron’s head and anointed(U) him to consecrate him.(V) 13 Then he brought Aaron’s sons(W) forward, put tunics(X) on them, tied sashes around them and fastened caps on them, as the Lord commanded Moses.(Y)
14 He then presented the bull(Z) for the sin offering,(AA) and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.(AB) 15 Moses slaughtered the bull and took some of the blood,(AC) and with his finger he put it on all the horns of the altar(AD) to purify the altar.(AE) He poured out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar. So he consecrated it to make atonement for it.(AF) 16 Moses also took all the fat around the internal organs, the long lobe of the liver, and both kidneys and their fat, and burned it on the altar. 17 But the bull with its hide and its flesh and its intestines(AG) he burned up outside the camp,(AH) as the Lord commanded Moses.
18 He then presented the ram(AI) for the burnt offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head. 19 Then Moses slaughtered the ram and splashed the blood against the sides of the altar. 20 He cut the ram into pieces and burned the head, the pieces and the fat.(AJ) 21 He washed the internal organs and the legs with water and burned the whole ram on the altar. It was a burnt offering, a pleasing aroma, a food offering presented to the Lord, as the Lord commanded Moses.
22 He then presented the other ram, the ram for the ordination,(AK) and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.(AL) 23 Moses slaughtered the ram and took some of its blood and put it on the lobe of Aaron’s right ear, on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot.(AM) 24 Moses also brought Aaron’s sons forward and put some of the blood on the lobes of their right ears, on the thumbs of their right hands and on the big toes of their right feet. Then he splashed blood against the sides of the altar.(AN) 25 After that, he took the fat(AO), the fat tail, all the fat around the internal organs, the long lobe of the liver, both kidneys and their fat and the right thigh. 26 And from the basket of bread made without yeast, which was before the Lord, he took one thick loaf, one thick loaf with olive oil mixed in, and one thin loaf,(AP) and he put these on the fat portions and on the right thigh. 27 He put all these in the hands of Aaron and his sons, and they waved them before the Lord(AQ) as a wave offering. 28 Then Moses took them from their hands and burned them on the altar on top of the burnt offering as an ordination offering, a pleasing aroma, a food offering presented to the Lord. 29 Moses also took the breast, which was his share of the ordination ram,(AR) and waved it before the Lord as a wave offering, as the Lord commanded Moses.
30 Then Moses(AS) took some of the anointing oil and some of the blood from the altar and sprinkled them on Aaron and his garments(AT) and on his sons and their garments. So he consecrated(AU) Aaron and his garments and his sons and their garments.
31 Moses then said to Aaron and his sons, “Cook the meat at the entrance to the tent of meeting(AV) and eat it there with the bread from the basket of ordination offerings, as I was commanded: ‘Aaron and his sons are to eat it.’ 32 Then burn up the rest of the meat and the bread. 33 Do not leave the entrance to the tent of meeting for seven days, until the days of your ordination are completed, for your ordination will last seven days.(AW) 34 What has been done today was commanded by the Lord(AX) to make atonement for you. 35 You must stay at the entrance to the tent of meeting day and night for seven days and do what the Lord requires,(AY) so you will not die; for that is what I have been commanded.”
36 So Aaron and his sons did everything the Lord commanded through Moses.
The Priests Begin Their Ministry
9 On the eighth day(AZ) Moses summoned Aaron and his sons and the elders(BA) of Israel. 2 He said to Aaron, “Take a bull calf for your sin offering[b] and a ram for your burnt offering, both without defect, and present them before the Lord. 3 Then say to the Israelites: ‘Take a male goat(BB) for a sin offering,(BC) a calf(BD) and a lamb(BE)—both a year old and without defect—for a burnt offering, 4 and an ox[c](BF) and a ram for a fellowship offering(BG) to sacrifice before the Lord, together with a grain offering mixed with olive oil. For today the Lord will appear to you.(BH)’”
5 They took the things Moses commanded to the front of the tent of meeting, and the entire assembly came near and stood before the Lord. 6 Then Moses said, “This is what the Lord has commanded you to do, so that the glory of the Lord(BI) may appear to you.”
7 Moses said to Aaron, “Come to the altar and sacrifice your sin offering and your burnt offering and make atonement for yourself and the people;(BJ) sacrifice the offering that is for the people and make atonement for them, as the Lord has commanded.(BK)”
8 So Aaron came to the altar and slaughtered the calf as a sin offering(BL) for himself. 9 His sons brought the blood to him,(BM) and he dipped his finger into the blood and put it on the horns of the altar; the rest of the blood he poured out at the base of the altar.(BN) 10 On the altar he burned the fat, the kidneys and the long lobe of the liver from the sin offering, as the Lord commanded Moses; 11 the flesh and the hide(BO) he burned up outside the camp.(BP)
12 Then he slaughtered the burnt offering.(BQ) His sons handed him the blood,(BR) and he splashed it against the sides of the altar. 13 They handed him the burnt offering piece by piece, including the head, and he burned them on the altar.(BS) 14 He washed the internal organs and the legs and burned them on top of the burnt offering on the altar.(BT)
15 Aaron then brought the offering that was for the people.(BU) He took the goat for the people’s sin offering and slaughtered it and offered it for a sin offering as he did with the first one.
16 He brought the burnt offering and offered it in the prescribed way.(BV) 17 He also brought the grain offering, took a handful of it and burned it on the altar in addition to the morning’s burnt offering.(BW)
18 He slaughtered the ox and the ram as the fellowship offering for the people.(BX) His sons handed him the blood, and he splashed it against the sides of the altar. 19 But the fat portions of the ox and the ram—the fat tail, the layer of fat, the kidneys and the long lobe of the liver— 20 these they laid on the breasts, and then Aaron burned the fat on the altar. 21 Aaron waved the breasts and the right thigh before the Lord as a wave offering,(BY) as Moses commanded.
22 Then Aaron lifted his hands toward the people and blessed them.(BZ) And having sacrificed the sin offering, the burnt offering and the fellowship offering, he stepped down.
23 Moses and Aaron then went into the tent of meeting.(CA) When they came out, they blessed the people; and the glory of the Lord(CB) appeared to all the people. 24 Fire(CC) came out from the presence of the Lord and consumed the burnt offering and the fat portions on the altar. And when all the people saw it, they shouted for joy and fell facedown.(CD)
The Death of Nadab and Abihu
10 Aaron’s sons Nadab and Abihu(CE) took their censers,(CF) put fire in them(CG) and added incense;(CH) and they offered unauthorized fire before the Lord,(CI) contrary to his command.(CJ) 2 So fire came out(CK) from the presence of the Lord and consumed them,(CL) and they died before the Lord.(CM) 3 Moses then said to Aaron, “This is what the Lord spoke of when he said:
“‘Among those who approach me(CN)
I will be proved holy;(CO)
in the sight of all the people
I will be honored.(CP)’”
Aaron remained silent.
4 Moses summoned Mishael and Elzaphan,(CQ) sons of Aaron’s uncle Uzziel,(CR) and said to them, “Come here; carry your cousins outside the camp,(CS) away from the front of the sanctuary.(CT)” 5 So they came and carried them, still in their tunics,(CU) outside the camp, as Moses ordered.
6 Then Moses said to Aaron and his sons Eleazar and Ithamar,(CV) “Do not let your hair become unkempt[d](CW) and do not tear your clothes,(CX) or you will die and the Lord will be angry with the whole community.(CY) But your relatives, all the Israelites, may mourn(CZ) for those the Lord has destroyed by fire. 7 Do not leave the entrance to the tent of meeting(DA) or you will die, because the Lord’s anointing oil(DB) is on you.” So they did as Moses said.
8 Then the Lord said to Aaron, 9 “You and your sons are not to drink wine(DC) or other fermented drink(DD) whenever you go into the tent of meeting, or you will die. This is a lasting ordinance(DE) for the generations to come, 10 so that you can distinguish between the holy and the common, between the unclean and the clean,(DF) 11 and so you can teach(DG) the Israelites all the decrees the Lord has given them through Moses.(DH)”
12 Moses said to Aaron and his remaining sons, Eleazar and Ithamar, “Take the grain offering(DI) left over from the food offerings prepared without yeast and presented to the Lord and eat it beside the altar,(DJ) for it is most holy. 13 Eat it in the sanctuary area,(DK) because it is your share and your sons’ share of the food offerings presented to the Lord; for so I have been commanded.(DL) 14 But you and your sons and your daughters may eat the breast(DM) that was waved and the thigh that was presented. Eat them in a ceremonially clean place;(DN) they have been given to you and your children as your share of the Israelites’ fellowship offerings. 15 The thigh(DO) that was presented and the breast that was waved must be brought with the fat portions of the food offerings, to be waved before the Lord as a wave offering.(DP) This will be the perpetual share for you and your children, as the Lord has commanded.”
16 When Moses inquired about the goat of the sin offering[e](DQ) and found that it had been burned up, he was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron’s remaining sons, and asked, 17 “Why didn’t you eat the sin offering(DR) in the sanctuary area? It is most holy; it was given to you to take away the guilt(DS) of the community by making atonement for them before the Lord. 18 Since its blood was not taken into the Holy Place,(DT) you should have eaten the goat in the sanctuary area, as I commanded.(DU)”
19 Aaron replied to Moses, “Today they sacrificed their sin offering and their burnt offering(DV) before the Lord, but such things as this have happened to me. Would the Lord have been pleased if I had eaten the sin offering today?” 20 When Moses heard this, he was satisfied.

8 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Take Aaron and his sons with him, and the garments, and the anointing oil, and a bullock for the sin offering, and two rams, and a basket of unleavened bread;
3 And gather thou all the congregation together unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
4 And Moses did as the Lord commanded him; and the assembly was gathered together unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
5 And Moses said unto the congregation, This is the thing which the Lord commanded to be done.
6 And Moses brought Aaron and his sons, and washed them with water.
7 And he put upon him the coat, and girded him with the girdle, and clothed him with the robe, and put the ephod upon him, and he girded him with the curious girdle of the ephod, and bound it unto him therewith.
8 And he put the breastplate upon him: also he put in the breastplate the Urim and the Thummim.
9 And he put the mitre upon his head; also upon the mitre, even upon his forefront, did he put the golden plate, the holy crown; as the Lord commanded Moses.
10 And Moses took the anointing oil, and anointed the tabernacle and all that was therein, and sanctified them.
11 And he sprinkled thereof upon the altar seven times, and anointed the altar and all his vessels, both the laver and his foot, to sanctify them.
12 And he poured of the anointing oil upon Aaron's head, and anointed him, to sanctify him.
13 And Moses brought Aaron's sons, and put coats upon them, and girded them with girdles, and put bonnets upon them; as the Lord commanded Moses.
14 And he brought the bullock for the sin offering: and Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the bullock for the sin offering.
15 And he slew it; and Moses took the blood, and put it upon the horns of the altar round about with his finger, and purified the altar, and poured the blood at the bottom of the altar, and sanctified it, to make reconciliation upon it.
16 And he took all the fat that was upon the inwards, and the caul above the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat, and Moses burned it upon the altar.
17 But the bullock, and his hide, his flesh, and his dung, he burnt with fire without the camp; as the Lord commanded Moses.
18 And he brought the ram for the burnt offering: and Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the ram.
19 And he killed it; and Moses sprinkled the blood upon the altar round about.
20 And he cut the ram into pieces; and Moses burnt the head, and the pieces, and the fat.
21 And he washed the inwards and the legs in water; and Moses burnt the whole ram upon the altar: it was a burnt sacrifice for a sweet savour, and an offering made by fire unto the Lord; as the Lord commanded Moses.
22 And he brought the other ram, the ram of consecration: and Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the ram.
23 And he slew it; and Moses took of the blood of it, and put it upon the tip of Aaron's right ear, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot.
24 And he brought Aaron's sons, and Moses put of the blood upon the tip of their right ear, and upon the thumbs of their right hands, and upon the great toes of their right feet: and Moses sprinkled the blood upon the altar round about.
25 And he took the fat, and the rump, and all the fat that was upon the inwards, and the caul above the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat, and the right shoulder:
26 And out of the basket of unleavened bread, that was before the Lord, he took one unleavened cake, and a cake of oiled bread, and one wafer, and put them on the fat, and upon the right shoulder:
27 And he put all upon Aaron's hands, and upon his sons' hands, and waved them for a wave offering before the Lord.
28 And Moses took them from off their hands, and burnt them on the altar upon the burnt offering: they were consecrations for a sweet savour: it is an offering made by fire unto the Lord.
29 And Moses took the breast, and waved it for a wave offering before the Lord: for of the ram of consecration it was Moses' part; as the Lord commanded Moses.
30 And Moses took of the anointing oil, and of the blood which was upon the altar, and sprinkled it upon Aaron, and upon his garments, and upon his sons, and upon his sons' garments with him; and sanctified Aaron, and his garments, and his sons, and his sons' garments with him.
31 And Moses said unto Aaron and to his sons, Boil the flesh at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and there eat it with the bread that is in the basket of consecrations, as I commanded, saying, Aaron and his sons shall eat it.
32 And that which remaineth of the flesh and of the bread shall ye burn with fire.
33 And ye shall not go out of the door of the tabernacle of the congregation in seven days, until the days of your consecration be at an end: for seven days shall he consecrate you.
34 As he hath done this day, so the Lord hath commanded to do, to make an atonement for you.
35 Therefore shall ye abide at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation day and night seven days, and keep the charge of the Lord, that ye die not: for so I am commanded.
36 So Aaron and his sons did all things which the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses.
9 And it came to pass on the eighth day, that Moses called Aaron and his sons, and the elders of Israel;
2 And he said unto Aaron, Take thee a young calf for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer them before the Lord.
3 And unto the children of Israel thou shalt speak, saying, Take ye a kid of the goats for a sin offering; and a calf and a lamb, both of the first year, without blemish, for a burnt offering;
4 Also a bullock and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before the Lord; and a meat offering mingled with oil: for to day the Lord will appear unto you.
5 And they brought that which Moses commanded before the tabernacle of the congregation: and all the congregation drew near and stood before the Lord.
6 And Moses said, This is the thing which the Lord commanded that ye should do: and the glory of the Lord shall appear unto you.
7 And Moses said unto Aaron, Go unto the altar, and offer thy sin offering, and thy burnt offering, and make an atonement for thyself, and for the people: and offer the offering of the people, and make an atonement for them; as the Lord commanded.
8 Aaron therefore went unto the altar, and slew the calf of the sin offering, which was for himself.
9 And the sons of Aaron brought the blood unto him: and he dipped his finger in the blood, and put it upon the horns of the altar, and poured out the blood at the bottom of the altar:
10 But the fat, and the kidneys, and the caul above the liver of the sin offering, he burnt upon the altar; as the Lord commanded Moses.
11 And the flesh and the hide he burnt with fire without the camp.
12 And he slew the burnt offering; and Aaron's sons presented unto him the blood, which he sprinkled round about upon the altar.
13 And they presented the burnt offering unto him, with the pieces thereof, and the head: and he burnt them upon the altar.
14 And he did wash the inwards and the legs, and burnt them upon the burnt offering on the altar.
15 And he brought the people's offering, and took the goat, which was the sin offering for the people, and slew it, and offered it for sin, as the first.
16 And he brought the burnt offering, and offered it according to the manner.
17 And he brought the meat offering, and took an handful thereof, and burnt it upon the altar, beside the burnt sacrifice of the morning.
18 He slew also the bullock and the ram for a sacrifice of peace offerings, which was for the people: and Aaron's sons presented unto him the blood, which he sprinkled upon the altar round about,
19 And the fat of the bullock and of the ram, the rump, and that which covereth the inwards, and the kidneys, and the caul above the liver:
20 And they put the fat upon the breasts, and he burnt the fat upon the altar:
21 And the breasts and the right shoulder Aaron waved for a wave offering before the Lord; as Moses commanded.
22 And Aaron lifted up his hand toward the people, and blessed them, and came down from offering of the sin offering, and the burnt offering, and peace offerings.
23 And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of the congregation, and came out, and blessed the people: and the glory of the Lord appeared unto all the people.
24 And there came a fire out from before the Lord, and consumed upon the altar the burnt offering and the fat: which when all the people saw, they shouted, and fell on their faces.
10 And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the Lord, which he commanded them not.
2 And there went out fire from the Lord, and devoured them, and they died before the Lord.
3 Then Moses said unto Aaron, This is it that the Lord spake, saying, I will be sanctified in them that come nigh me, and before all the people I will be glorified. And Aaron held his peace.
4 And Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said unto them, Come near, carry your brethren from before the sanctuary out of the camp.
5 So they went near, and carried them in their coats out of the camp; as Moses had said.
6 And Moses said unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar, his sons, Uncover not your heads, neither rend your clothes; lest ye die, and lest wrath come upon all the people: but let your brethren, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which the Lord hath kindled.
7 And ye shall not go out from the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: for the anointing oil of the Lord is upon you. And they did according to the word of Moses.
8 And the Lord spake unto Aaron, saying,
9 Do not drink wine nor strong drink, thou, nor thy sons with thee, when ye go into the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations:
10 And that ye may put difference between holy and unholy, and between unclean and clean;
11 And that ye may teach the children of Israel all the statutes which the Lord hath spoken unto them by the hand of Moses.
12 And Moses spake unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar, his sons that were left, Take the meat offering that remaineth of the offerings of the Lord made by fire, and eat it without leaven beside the altar: for it is most holy:
13 And ye shall eat it in the holy place, because it is thy due, and thy sons' due, of the sacrifices of the Lord made by fire: for so I am commanded.
14 And the wave breast and heave shoulder shall ye eat in a clean place; thou, and thy sons, and thy daughters with thee: for they be thy due, and thy sons' due, which are given out of the sacrifices of peace offerings of the children of Israel.
15 The heave shoulder and the wave breast shall they bring with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering before the Lord; and it shall be thine, and thy sons' with thee, by a statute for ever; as the Lord hath commanded.
16 And Moses diligently sought the goat of the sin offering, and, behold, it was burnt: and he was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron which were left alive, saying,
17 Wherefore have ye not eaten the sin offering in the holy place, seeing it is most holy, and God hath given it you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them before the Lord?
18 Behold, the blood of it was not brought in within the holy place: ye should indeed have eaten it in the holy place, as I commanded.
19 And Aaron said unto Moses, Behold, this day have they offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before the Lord; and such things have befallen me: and if I had eaten the sin offering to day, should it have been accepted in the sight of the Lord?
20 And when Moses heard that, he was content.

膏立亞倫父子們做祭司
8 耶和華對摩西說： 2 「你把亞倫父子們帶來，也要帶聖衣、膏油、一頭作贖罪祭的公牛、兩隻公綿羊和一籃無酵餅， 3 然後把全體會眾招聚到會幕門前。」 4 摩西按照耶和華的指示行事，會眾都聚集在會幕門前。
5 摩西告訴會眾：「這是耶和華吩咐我做的事。」 6 他把亞倫父子們帶來，用水洗他們。 7 摩西給亞倫穿上內袍，束上腰帶，穿上外袍，套上以弗得，用精巧的帶子把以弗得繫在亞倫身上， 8 然後給他戴上胸牌，把烏陵和土明放在胸牌內， 9 再把禮冠戴在他頭上，在禮冠前繫上金牌，即聖冠，都遵照耶和華的吩咐。
10 摩西拿膏油抹聖幕和聖幕裡的一切物件，使它們聖潔； 11 再用膏油在祭壇上灑七次，又抹祭壇和祭壇上的器具、洗濯盆和盆座，使它們聖潔。 12 然後，摩西把膏油倒在亞倫頭上膏立他，使他聖潔。 13 摩西又把亞倫的兒子們帶來，給他們穿上內袍，束上腰帶，裹上頭巾，都遵照耶和華的吩咐。
14 摩西牽來那頭作贖罪祭的公牛，亞倫父子們把手放在牛頭上。 15 摩西宰了牛，用手指蘸一些牛血抹在祭壇的四角上，以潔淨祭壇；把剩下的血倒在祭壇腳旁，使祭壇聖潔。 16 他取出遮蓋內臟的脂肪、肝葉、兩個腎臟和腎臟上的脂肪，放在壇上焚燒， 17 又照耶和華的吩咐，把公牛的皮、肉和糞便帶到營外燒掉。
18 然後，摩西獻上作燔祭的公綿羊，亞倫父子們把手放在羊頭上。 19 摩西宰了那隻羊，將羊血灑在祭壇周圍； 20 把羊切成塊，焚燒羊頭、肉塊和脂肪； 21 用水洗淨羊的內臟和腿，放在壇上焚燒，作蒙耶和華悅納的馨香火祭，都遵照耶和華的吩咐。
22 摩西獻上另一隻為授聖職而獻的公綿羊。亞倫父子們把手放在羊頭上。 23 摩西宰了羊，將一些羊血抹在亞倫的右耳垂、右手大拇指和右腳大腳趾上。 24 他又把亞倫的兒子們帶來，將一些血抹在他們的右耳垂、右手大拇指和右腳大腳趾上，然後把剩下的血都灑在祭壇四周。 25 他取下羊的右腿和脂肪，即肥尾巴、遮蓋內臟的脂肪、肝葉、兩個腎臟和腎臟上的脂肪， 26 又從放在耶和華面前盛無酵餅的籃子中取一個無酵餅、一個油餅和一個薄餅，放在羊的右腿和脂肪上。 27 他把這些放在亞倫父子們的手上，作為搖祭在耶和華面前搖一搖。 28 隨後，他從他們手上拿過這些祭物，放在祭壇的燔祭上焚燒，作為授聖職時獻的祭。這是蒙耶和華悅納的馨香火祭。 29 摩西又把祭牲的胸肉作為搖祭在耶和華面前搖一搖，這是他授聖職時所應得之份，都遵照耶和華的吩咐。
30 摩西拿了一些膏油和壇上的血，灑在亞倫和他的衣服上，也灑在他兒子們和他們的衣服上，使亞倫父子們和他們的衣服聖潔。
31 摩西對亞倫父子們說：「你們要照我的指示在會幕門口煮祭肉吃，也要吃籃子裡為授聖職而獻的餅。 32 吃剩的肉和餅，你們要燒掉。 33 你們的聖職禮為期七天，這七天之內，你們不可走出會幕門口。 34 今天所做的這一切都是耶和華吩咐的，是為你們贖罪。 35 七天之內，你們必須日夜待在會幕門口，要遵守耶和華的吩咐，免得你們死亡。這是耶和華對我的吩咐。」 36 於是，亞倫父子們遵行了耶和華藉摩西吩咐的一切。
亞倫獻祭
9 第八天，摩西召來亞倫父子們和以色列的眾長老。 2 他對亞倫說：「你要在耶和華面前獻上一頭公牛犢作贖罪祭、一隻公綿羊作燔祭，這些祭牲都要毫無殘疾。 3 然後，你要告訴以色列人，『你們要取一隻公山羊作贖罪祭、毫無殘疾的一歲牛犢和羊羔各一隻作燔祭、 4 公牛和公綿羊各一隻作平安祭，連同調油的素祭一起獻給耶和華，因為今天耶和華要向你們顯現。』」 5 於是，以色列人遵照摩西的吩咐，把祭物帶到會幕前。全體會眾都聚集到那裡，站在耶和華面前。 6 摩西對他們說：「耶和華吩咐你們這樣做，是為了向你們顯出祂的榮耀。」 7 隨後，摩西對亞倫說：「你要到壇前來，獻上你的贖罪祭和燔祭，為自己和民眾贖罪。也要按照耶和華的吩咐，為百姓獻上他們的祭物，為他們贖罪。」
8 於是，亞倫走到壇前，宰殺為他作贖罪祭的牛犢。 9 他兒子們把牛犢的血遞給他，他用手指蘸血抹在壇角上，將剩下的血倒在壇腳旁。 10 他照耶和華對摩西的吩咐，在壇上焚燒牛犢的脂肪、腎臟和肝葉， 11 把皮和肉帶到營外焚燒。
12 亞倫宰了燔祭祭牲，他兒子們把祭牲的血遞給他灑在祭壇四周。 13 他們將祭牲切成塊，連頭顱一起交給亞倫獻在壇上焚燒。 14 亞倫洗淨祭牲的內臟和腿，放在祭壇的燔祭上焚燒。
15 隨後，亞倫為民眾獻祭。他牽來那隻為民眾作贖罪祭的公山羊，宰殺後，像剛才為自己獻贖罪祭一樣為他們獻上贖罪祭。 16 他又牽來燔祭祭牲，依照條例獻上燔祭。 17 除了早晨的燔祭，亞倫又取來素祭，從中拿了一把獻在壇上焚燒。 18 然後，他宰了公牛和公綿羊，為民眾獻平安祭。他兒子們把祭牲的血遞給他，他把血灑在祭壇四周。 19 他們把公牛和公綿羊的脂肪，即肥尾巴、遮蓋內臟的脂肪、腎臟和肝葉， 20 放在祭牲的胸上，然後亞倫把那些脂肪放在壇上焚燒， 21 將胸肉和右腿肉作為搖祭在耶和華面前搖一搖，都遵照摩西的吩咐。
22 亞倫獻完贖罪祭、燔祭和平安祭，舉手為民眾祝福後，走下祭壇。 23 之後，摩西和亞倫走進會幕，又出來為民眾祝福。這時，耶和華的榮耀向所有民眾顯現。 24 有火從耶和華那裡降下來，燒盡祭壇上的燔祭和脂肪。民眾看見這景象，都歡呼起來，俯伏在地。
拿答和亞比戶之死
10 亞倫的兒子拿答和亞比戶各拿自己的香爐，點火加香，在耶和華面前獻上凡火。他們這樣做不合耶和華的吩咐。 2 於是，有火從耶和華面前出來吞噬了他們，他們就死在耶和華面前。 3 摩西告訴亞倫：「耶和華曾說過，『我要在事奉我的人[a]中顯明我的聖潔，在所有子民面前彰顯我的榮耀。』」亞倫默默無言。 4 摩西叫來亞倫的叔父烏薛的兒子米沙利和以利撒反，對他們說：「過來，把你們弟兄的屍體從聖所前抬到營外去。」 5 他們就遵照摩西的吩咐，把仍穿著內袍的屍體抬到營外。 6 摩西對亞倫和他剩下的兩個兒子以利亞撒和以他瑪說：「你們不要蓬頭散髮，也不要撕裂衣服，免得你們死亡，也免得耶和華向全體會眾發怒。不過，你們的所有以色列同胞都可以為耶和華用火燒死的人哀傷。 7 你們不可走出會幕門口，否則你們都會死，因為耶和華的膏油在你們身上。」他們就遵照摩西的話去做。
有關祭司的條例
8 耶和華對亞倫說： 9 「你和你兒子們進會幕前，淡酒烈酒都不可喝，否則你們都會死。你們世世代代都要遵守這永遠的條例。 10 你們必須明辨什麼是聖潔的、什麼是世俗的，什麼是潔淨的、什麼是不潔淨的。 11 你們必須將我藉摩西賜給以色列人的一切律例教導他們。」
12 摩西對亞倫及其兩個兒子以利亞撒和以他瑪說：「你們要把獻給耶和華的火祭中剩下的素祭做成無酵餅，在壇邊吃，因為這是至聖之物。 13 你們要在聖潔之處吃，因為在獻給耶和華的火祭中，這是你們和你們的子孫應得之份。這是耶和華對我的吩咐。 14 至於作搖祭的胸肉和作舉祭的腿肉，你們和你們的子孫可以在潔淨的地方吃。因為在以色列人所獻的平安祭中，這是你們應得之份。 15 在獻火祭的脂肪時，要把作舉祭的腿肉和作搖祭的胸肉一起帶到耶和華面前，這些永遠是你們和你們的子孫應得之份，正如耶和華的吩咐。」
16 摩西到處尋找那隻作贖罪祭的公山羊，卻發現那隻羊已經被焚燒了。他憤怒地對亞倫剩下的兩個兒子以利亞撒和以他瑪說： 17 「你們為什麼不在聖潔之處吃這贖罪祭？這是至聖之物，耶和華賜給你們是要叫你們為會眾擔罪，在耶和華面前為他們贖罪。 18 既然這祭牲的血沒有被帶進聖所，你們本應按照我的吩咐在聖潔之處吃這祭肉。」 19 亞倫對摩西說：「看啊，他們今天向耶和華獻贖罪祭和燔祭，卻有這樣的災禍發生在我身上。今天我如果吃了這贖罪祭的祭肉，耶和華會悅納嗎？」 20 摩西對亞倫的回答感到滿意。

Leviticus 8-10
New International Version
The Ordination of Aaron and His Sons(A)
8 The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Bring Aaron and his sons,(B) their garments,(C) the anointing oil,(D) the bull for the sin offering,[a](E) the two rams(F) and the basket containing bread made without yeast,(G) 3 and gather the entire assembly(H) at the entrance to the tent of meeting.” 4 Moses did as the Lord commanded him, and the assembly gathered at the entrance to the tent of meeting.
5 Moses said to the assembly, “This is what the Lord has commanded to be done.(I)” 6 Then Moses brought Aaron and his sons forward and washed them with water.(J) 7 He put the tunic on Aaron, tied the sash around him, clothed him with the robe and put the ephod on him. He also fastened the ephod with a decorative waistband, which he tied around him.(K) 8 He placed the breastpiece(L) on him and put the Urim and Thummim(M) in the breastpiece. 9 Then he placed the turban(N) on Aaron’s head and set the gold plate, the sacred emblem,(O) on the front of it, as the Lord commanded Moses.(P)
10 Then Moses took the anointing oil(Q) and anointed(R) the tabernacle(S) and everything in it, and so consecrated them. 11 He sprinkled some of the oil on the altar seven times, anointing the altar and all its utensils and the basin with its stand, to consecrate them.(T) 12 He poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron’s head and anointed(U) him to consecrate him.(V) 13 Then he brought Aaron’s sons(W) forward, put tunics(X) on them, tied sashes around them and fastened caps on them, as the Lord commanded Moses.(Y)
14 He then presented the bull(Z) for the sin offering,(AA) and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.(AB) 15 Moses slaughtered the bull and took some of the blood,(AC) and with his finger he put it on all the horns of the altar(AD) to purify the altar.(AE) He poured out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar. So he consecrated it to make atonement for it.(AF) 16 Moses also took all the fat around the internal organs, the long lobe of the liver, and both kidneys and their fat, and burned it on the altar. 17 But the bull with its hide and its flesh and its intestines(AG) he burned up outside the camp,(AH) as the Lord commanded Moses.
18 He then presented the ram(AI) for the burnt offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head. 19 Then Moses slaughtered the ram and splashed the blood against the sides of the altar. 20 He cut the ram into pieces and burned the head, the pieces and the fat.(AJ) 21 He washed the internal organs and the legs with water and burned the whole ram on the altar. It was a burnt offering, a pleasing aroma, a food offering presented to the Lord, as the Lord commanded Moses.
22 He then presented the other ram, the ram for the ordination,(AK) and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.(AL) 23 Moses slaughtered the ram and took some of its blood and put it on the lobe of Aaron’s right ear, on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot.(AM) 24 Moses also brought Aaron’s sons forward and put some of the blood on the lobes of their right ears, on the thumbs of their right hands and on the big toes of their right feet. Then he splashed blood against the sides of the altar.(AN) 25 After that, he took the fat(AO), the fat tail, all the fat around the internal organs, the long lobe of the liver, both kidneys and their fat and the right thigh. 26 And from the basket of bread made without yeast, which was before the Lord, he took one thick loaf, one thick loaf with olive oil mixed in, and one thin loaf,(AP) and he put these on the fat portions and on the right thigh. 27 He put all these in the hands of Aaron and his sons, and they waved them before the Lord(AQ) as a wave offering. 28 Then Moses took them from their hands and burned them on the altar on top of the burnt offering as an ordination offering, a pleasing aroma, a food offering presented to the Lord. 29 Moses also took the breast, which was his share of the ordination ram,(AR) and waved it before the Lord as a wave offering, as the Lord commanded Moses.
30 Then Moses(AS) took some of the anointing oil and some of the blood from the altar and sprinkled them on Aaron and his garments(AT) and on his sons and their garments. So he consecrated(AU) Aaron and his garments and his sons and their garments.
31 Moses then said to Aaron and his sons, “Cook the meat at the entrance to the tent of meeting(AV) and eat it there with the bread from the basket of ordination offerings, as I was commanded: ‘Aaron and his sons are to eat it.’ 32 Then burn up the rest of the meat and the bread. 33 Do not leave the entrance to the tent of meeting for seven days, until the days of your ordination are completed, for your ordination will last seven days.(AW) 34 What has been done today was commanded by the Lord(AX) to make atonement for you. 35 You must stay at the entrance to the tent of meeting day and night for seven days and do what the Lord requires,(AY) so you will not die; for that is what I have been commanded.”
36 So Aaron and his sons did everything the Lord commanded through Moses.
The Priests Begin Their Ministry
9 On the eighth day(AZ) Moses summoned Aaron and his sons and the elders(BA) of Israel. 2 He said to Aaron, “Take a bull calf for your sin offering[b] and a ram for your burnt offering, both without defect, and present them before the Lord. 3 Then say to the Israelites: ‘Take a male goat(BB) for a sin offering,(BC) a calf(BD) and a lamb(BE)—both a year old and without defect—for a burnt offering, 4 and an ox[c](BF) and a ram for a fellowship offering(BG) to sacrifice before the Lord, together with a grain offering mixed with olive oil. For today the Lord will appear to you.(BH)’”
5 They took the things Moses commanded to the front of the tent of meeting, and the entire assembly came near and stood before the Lord. 6 Then Moses said, “This is what the Lord has commanded you to do, so that the glory of the Lord(BI) may appear to you.”
7 Moses said to Aaron, “Come to the altar and sacrifice your sin offering and your burnt offering and make atonement for yourself and the people;(BJ) sacrifice the offering that is for the people and make atonement for them, as the Lord has commanded.(BK)”
8 So Aaron came to the altar and slaughtered the calf as a sin offering(BL) for himself. 9 His sons brought the blood to him,(BM) and he dipped his finger into the blood and put it on the horns of the altar; the rest of the blood he poured out at the base of the altar.(BN) 10 On the altar he burned the fat, the kidneys and the long lobe of the liver from the sin offering, as the Lord commanded Moses; 11 the flesh and the hide(BO) he burned up outside the camp.(BP)
12 Then he slaughtered the burnt offering.(BQ) His sons handed him the blood,(BR) and he splashed it against the sides of the altar. 13 They handed him the burnt offering piece by piece, including the head, and he burned them on the altar.(BS) 14 He washed the internal organs and the legs and burned them on top of the burnt offering on the altar.(BT)
15 Aaron then brought the offering that was for the people.(BU) He took the goat for the people’s sin offering and slaughtered it and offered it for a sin offering as he did with the first one.
16 He brought the burnt offering and offered it in the prescribed way.(BV) 17 He also brought the grain offering, took a handful of it and burned it on the altar in addition to the morning’s burnt offering.(BW)
18 He slaughtered the ox and the ram as the fellowship offering for the people.(BX) His sons handed him the blood, and he splashed it against the sides of the altar. 19 But the fat portions of the ox and the ram—the fat tail, the layer of fat, the kidneys and the long lobe of the liver— 20 these they laid on the breasts, and then Aaron burned the fat on the altar. 21 Aaron waved the breasts and the right thigh before the Lord as a wave offering,(BY) as Moses commanded.
22 Then Aaron lifted his hands toward the people and blessed them.(BZ) And having sacrificed the sin offering, the burnt offering and the fellowship offering, he stepped down.
23 Moses and Aaron then went into the tent of meeting.(CA) When they came out, they blessed the people; and the glory of the Lord(CB) appeared to all the people. 24 Fire(CC) came out from the presence of the Lord and consumed the burnt offering and the fat portions on the altar. And when all the people saw it, they shouted for joy and fell facedown.(CD)
The Death of Nadab and Abihu
10 Aaron’s sons Nadab and Abihu(CE) took their censers,(CF) put fire in them(CG) and added incense;(CH) and they offered unauthorized fire before the Lord,(CI) contrary to his command.(CJ) 2 So fire came out(CK) from the presence of the Lord and consumed them,(CL) and they died before the Lord.(CM) 3 Moses then said to Aaron, “This is what the Lord spoke of when he said:
“‘Among those who approach me(CN)
I will be proved holy;(CO)
in the sight of all the people
I will be honored.(CP)’”
Aaron remained silent.
4 Moses summoned Mishael and Elzaphan,(CQ) sons of Aaron’s uncle Uzziel,(CR) and said to them, “Come here; carry your cousins outside the camp,(CS) away from the front of the sanctuary.(CT)” 5 So they came and carried them, still in their tunics,(CU) outside the camp, as Moses ordered.
6 Then Moses said to Aaron and his sons Eleazar and Ithamar,(CV) “Do not let your hair become unkempt[d](CW) and do not tear your clothes,(CX) or you will die and the Lord will be angry with the whole community.(CY) But your relatives, all the Israelites, may mourn(CZ) for those the Lord has destroyed by fire. 7 Do not leave the entrance to the tent of meeting(DA) or you will die, because the Lord’s anointing oil(DB) is on you.” So they did as Moses said.
8 Then the Lord said to Aaron, 9 “You and your sons are not to drink wine(DC) or other fermented drink(DD) whenever you go into the tent of meeting, or you will die. This is a lasting ordinance(DE) for the generations to come, 10 so that you can distinguish between the holy and the common, between the unclean and the clean,(DF) 11 and so you can teach(DG) the Israelites all the decrees the Lord has given them through Moses.(DH)”
12 Moses said to Aaron and his remaining sons, Eleazar and Ithamar, “Take the grain offering(DI) left over from the food offerings prepared without yeast and presented to the Lord and eat it beside the altar,(DJ) for it is most holy. 13 Eat it in the sanctuary area,(DK) because it is your share and your sons’ share of the food offerings presented to the Lord; for so I have been commanded.(DL) 14 But you and your sons and your daughters may eat the breast(DM) that was waved and the thigh that was presented. Eat them in a ceremonially clean place;(DN) they have been given to you and your children as your share of the Israelites’ fellowship offerings. 15 The thigh(DO) that was presented and the breast that was waved must be brought with the fat portions of the food offerings, to be waved before the Lord as a wave offering.(DP) This will be the perpetual share for you and your children, as the Lord has commanded.”
16 When Moses inquired about the goat of the sin offering[e](DQ) and found that it had been burned up, he was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron’s remaining sons, and asked, 17 “Why didn’t you eat the sin offering(DR) in the sanctuary area? It is most holy; it was given to you to take away the guilt(DS) of the community by making atonement for them before the Lord. 18 Since its blood was not taken into the Holy Place,(DT) you should have eaten the goat in the sanctuary area, as I commanded.(DU)”
19 Aaron replied to Moses, “Today they sacrificed their sin offering and their burnt offering(DV) before the Lord, but such things as this have happened to me. Would the Lord have been pleased if I had eaten the sin offering today?” 20 When Moses heard this, he was satisfied.

8 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Take Aaron and his sons with him, and the garments, and the anointing oil, and a bullock for the sin offering, and two rams, and a basket of unleavened bread;
3 And gather thou all the congregation together unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
4 And Moses did as the Lord commanded him; and the assembly was gathered together unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
5 And Moses said unto the congregation, This is the thing which the Lord commanded to be done.
6 And Moses brought Aaron and his sons, and washed them with water.
7 And he put upon him the coat, and girded him with the girdle, and clothed him with the robe, and put the ephod upon him, and he girded him with the curious girdle of the ephod, and bound it unto him therewith.
8 And he put the breastplate upon him: also he put in the breastplate the Urim and the Thummim.
9 And he put the mitre upon his head; also upon the mitre, even upon his forefront, did he put the golden plate, the holy crown; as the Lord commanded Moses.
10 And Moses took the anointing oil, and anointed the tabernacle and all that was therein, and sanctified them.
11 And he sprinkled thereof upon the altar seven times, and anointed the altar and all his vessels, both the laver and his foot, to sanctify them.
12 And he poured of the anointing oil upon Aaron's head, and anointed him, to sanctify him.
13 And Moses brought Aaron's sons, and put coats upon them, and girded them with girdles, and put bonnets upon them; as the Lord commanded Moses.
14 And he brought the bullock for the sin offering: and Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the bullock for the sin offering.
15 And he slew it; and Moses took the blood, and put it upon the horns of the altar round about with his finger, and purified the altar, and poured the blood at the bottom of the altar, and sanctified it, to make reconciliation upon it.
16 And he took all the fat that was upon the inwards, and the caul above the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat, and Moses burned it upon the altar.
17 But the bullock, and his hide, his flesh, and his dung, he burnt with fire without the camp; as the Lord commanded Moses.
18 And he brought the ram for the burnt offering: and Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the ram.
19 And he killed it; and Moses sprinkled the blood upon the altar round about.
20 And he cut the ram into pieces; and Moses burnt the head, and the pieces, and the fat.
21 And he washed the inwards and the legs in water; and Moses burnt the whole ram upon the altar: it was a burnt sacrifice for a sweet savour, and an offering made by fire unto the Lord; as the Lord commanded Moses.
22 And he brought the other ram, the ram of consecration: and Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the ram.
23 And he slew it; and Moses took of the blood of it, and put it upon the tip of Aaron's right ear, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot.
24 And he brought Aaron's sons, and Moses put of the blood upon the tip of their right ear, and upon the thumbs of their right hands, and upon the great toes of their right feet: and Moses sprinkled the blood upon the altar round about.
25 And he took the fat, and the rump, and all the fat that was upon the inwards, and the caul above the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat, and the right shoulder:
26 And out of the basket of unleavened bread, that was before the Lord, he took one unleavened cake, and a cake of oiled bread, and one wafer, and put them on the fat, and upon the right shoulder:
27 And he put all upon Aaron's hands, and upon his sons' hands, and waved them for a wave offering before the Lord.
28 And Moses took them from off their hands, and burnt them on the altar upon the burnt offering: they were consecrations for a sweet savour: it is an offering made by fire unto the Lord.
29 And Moses took the breast, and waved it for a wave offering before the Lord: for of the ram of consecration it was Moses' part; as the Lord commanded Moses.
30 And Moses took of the anointing oil, and of the blood which was upon the altar, and sprinkled it upon Aaron, and upon his garments, and upon his sons, and upon his sons' garments with him; and sanctified Aaron, and his garments, and his sons, and his sons' garments with him.
31 And Moses said unto Aaron and to his sons, Boil the flesh at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and there eat it with the bread that is in the basket of consecrations, as I commanded, saying, Aaron and his sons shall eat it.
32 And that which remaineth of the flesh and of the bread shall ye burn with fire.
33 And ye shall not go out of the door of the tabernacle of the congregation in seven days, until the days of your consecration be at an end: for seven days shall he consecrate you.
34 As he hath done this day, so the Lord hath commanded to do, to make an atonement for you.
35 Therefore shall ye abide at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation day and night seven days, and keep the charge of the Lord, that ye die not: for so I am commanded.
36 So Aaron and his sons did all things which the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses.
9 And it came to pass on the eighth day, that Moses called Aaron and his sons, and the elders of Israel;
2 And he said unto Aaron, Take thee a young calf for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer them before the Lord.
3 And unto the children of Israel thou shalt speak, saying, Take ye a kid of the goats for a sin offering; and a calf and a lamb, both of the first year, without blemish, for a burnt offering;
4 Also a bullock and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before the Lord; and a meat offering mingled with oil: for to day the Lord will appear unto you.
5 And they brought that which Moses commanded before the tabernacle of the congregation: and all the congregation drew near and stood before the Lord.
6 And Moses said, This is the thing which the Lord commanded that ye should do: and the glory of the Lord shall appear unto you.
7 And Moses said unto Aaron, Go unto the altar, and offer thy sin offering, and thy burnt offering, and make an atonement for thyself, and for the people: and offer the offering of the people, and make an atonement for them; as the Lord commanded.
8 Aaron therefore went unto the altar, and slew the calf of the sin offering, which was for himself.
9 And the sons of Aaron brought the blood unto him: and he dipped his finger in the blood, and put it upon the horns of the altar, and poured out the blood at the bottom of the altar:
10 But the fat, and the kidneys, and the caul above the liver of the sin offering, he burnt upon the altar; as the Lord commanded Moses.
11 And the flesh and the hide he burnt with fire without the camp.
12 And he slew the burnt offering; and Aaron's sons presented unto him the blood, which he sprinkled round about upon the altar.
13 And they presented the burnt offering unto him, with the pieces thereof, and the head: and he burnt them upon the altar.
14 And he did wash the inwards and the legs, and burnt them upon the burnt offering on the altar.
15 And he brought the people's offering, and took the goat, which was the sin offering for the people, and slew it, and offered it for sin, as the first.
16 And he brought the burnt offering, and offered it according to the manner.
17 And he brought the meat offering, and took an handful thereof, and burnt it upon the altar, beside the burnt sacrifice of the morning.
18 He slew also the bullock and the ram for a sacrifice of peace offerings, which was for the people: and Aaron's sons presented unto him the blood, which he sprinkled upon the altar round about,
19 And the fat of the bullock and of the ram, the rump, and that which covereth the inwards, and the kidneys, and the caul above the liver:
20 And they put the fat upon the breasts, and he burnt the fat upon the altar:
21 And the breasts and the right shoulder Aaron waved for a wave offering before the Lord; as Moses commanded.
22 And Aaron lifted up his hand toward the people, and blessed them, and came down from offering of the sin offering, and the burnt offering, and peace offerings.
23 And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of the congregation, and came out, and blessed the people: and the glory of the Lord appeared unto all the people.
24 And there came a fire out from before the Lord, and consumed upon the altar the burnt offering and the fat: which when all the people saw, they shouted, and fell on their faces.
10 And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the Lord, which he commanded them not.
2 And there went out fire from the Lord, and devoured them, and they died before the Lord.
3 Then Moses said unto Aaron, This is it that the Lord spake, saying, I will be sanctified in them that come nigh me, and before all the people I will be glorified. And Aaron held his peace.
4 And Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said unto them, Come near, carry your brethren from before the sanctuary out of the camp.
5 So they went near, and carried them in their coats out of the camp; as Moses had said.
6 And Moses said unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar, his sons, Uncover not your heads, neither rend your clothes; lest ye die, and lest wrath come upon all the people: but let your brethren, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which the Lord hath kindled.
7 And ye shall not go out from the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: for the anointing oil of the Lord is upon you. And they did according to the word of Moses.
8 And the Lord spake unto Aaron, saying,
9 Do not drink wine nor strong drink, thou, nor thy sons with thee, when ye go into the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations:
10 And that ye may put difference between holy and unholy, and between unclean and clean;
11 And that ye may teach the children of Israel all the statutes which the Lord hath spoken unto them by the hand of Moses.
12 And Moses spake unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar, his sons that were left, Take the meat offering that remaineth of the offerings of the Lord made by fire, and eat it without leaven beside the altar: for it is most holy:
13 And ye shall eat it in the holy place, because it is thy due, and thy sons' due, of the sacrifices of the Lord made by fire: for so I am commanded.
14 And the wave breast and heave shoulder shall ye eat in a clean place; thou, and thy sons, and thy daughters with thee: for they be thy due, and thy sons' due, which are given out of the sacrifices of peace offerings of the children of Israel.
15 The heave shoulder and the wave breast shall they bring with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering before the Lord; and it shall be thine, and thy sons' with thee, by a statute for ever; as the Lord hath commanded.
16 And Moses diligently sought the goat of the sin offering, and, behold, it was burnt: and he was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron which were left alive, saying,
17 Wherefore have ye not eaten the sin offering in the holy place, seeing it is most holy, and God hath given it you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them before the Lord?
18 Behold, the blood of it was not brought in within the holy place: ye should indeed have eaten it in the holy place, as I commanded.
19 And Aaron said unto Moses, Behold, this day have they offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before the Lord; and such things have befallen me: and if I had eaten the sin offering to day, should it have been accepted in the sight of the Lord?
20 And when Moses heard that, he was content.
