English Standard Version
Consecration of Aaron and His Sons
8 (A)The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Take Aaron and his sons with him, and (B)the garments and (C)the anointing oil and the bull of the sin offering and the two rams and the basket of unleavened bread. 3 And assemble all the congregation at the entrance of the tent of meeting.” 4 And Moses did as the Lord commanded him, and the congregation was assembled at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
5 And Moses said to the congregation, (D)“This is the thing that the Lord has commanded to be done.” 6 And Moses brought Aaron and his sons and washed them with water. 7 And he put (E)the coat on him and tied the sash around his waist and clothed him with the robe and put the ephod on him and tied the skillfully woven band of the ephod around him, binding it to him with the band.[a] 8 And he placed the breastpiece on him, and (F)in the breastpiece he put the Urim and the Thummim. 9 And he set (G)the turban on his head, and (H)on the turban, in front, he set the golden plate, the holy crown, as the Lord commanded Moses.
10 (I)Then Moses took the anointing oil and anointed the tabernacle and all that was in it, and consecrated them. 11 And he sprinkled some of it on the altar seven times, and anointed the altar and all its utensils and the basin and its stand, to consecrate them. 12 And (J)he poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron's head and anointed him to consecrate him. 13 And Moses brought Aaron's sons and clothed them with coats and tied sashes around their waists and bound caps on them, as the Lord commanded Moses.
14 Then he brought (K)the bull of the sin offering, and Aaron and his sons (L)laid their hands on the head of the bull of the sin offering. 15 And he[b] killed it, and (M)Moses took the blood, and with his finger put it on the horns of the altar around it and purified the altar and poured out the blood at the base of the altar and consecrated it to make atonement for it. 16 (N)And he took all the fat that was on the entrails and the long lobe of the liver and the two kidneys with their fat, and Moses burned them on the altar. 17 But (O)the bull and its skin and its flesh and its dung he burned up with fire outside the camp, as the Lord commanded Moses.
18 (P)Then he presented the ram of the burnt offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram. 19 And he killed it, and Moses threw the blood against the sides of the altar. 20 He cut the ram into pieces, and Moses burned (Q)the head and the pieces and the fat. 21 He washed the entrails and the legs with water, and Moses burned the whole ram on the altar. It was a burnt offering with a pleasing aroma, a food offering for the Lord, as the Lord commanded Moses.
22 Then (R)he presented the other ram, the ram of ordination, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram. 23 And he killed it, and Moses took some of its blood and (S)put it on the lobe of Aaron's right ear and on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot. 24 Then he presented Aaron's sons, and Moses put some of the blood on the lobes of their right ears and on the thumbs of their right hands and on the big toes of their right feet. And Moses threw the blood against the sides of the altar. 25 Then he took the fat and the fat tail and all the fat that was on the entrails and the long lobe of the liver and the two kidneys with their fat and the right thigh, 26 and out of the basket of unleavened bread that was before the Lord he took one unleavened loaf and one loaf of bread with oil and one wafer and placed them on the pieces of fat and on the right thigh. 27 And he put all these in the hands of Aaron and in the hands of his sons and waved them as a wave offering before the Lord. 28 Then Moses took them from their hands and burned them on the altar with the burnt offering. This was an ordination offering with a pleasing aroma, a food offering to the Lord. 29 And Moses took the breast and waved it for a wave offering before the Lord. It was Moses' portion of the ram of ordination, as the Lord commanded Moses.
30 Then (T)Moses took some of the anointing oil and of the blood that was on the altar and sprinkled it on Aaron and his garments, and also on his sons and his sons' garments. So he consecrated Aaron and his garments, and his sons and his sons' garments with him.
31 And Moses said to Aaron and his sons, “Boil the flesh at the entrance of the tent of meeting, and there eat it and the bread that is in the basket of ordination offerings, as I commanded, saying, ‘Aaron and his sons shall eat it.’ 32 And what remains of the flesh and the bread you shall burn up with fire. 33 And you shall not go outside the entrance of the tent of meeting for seven days, until the days of your ordination are completed, for it (U)will take seven days to ordain you. 34 As has been done today, the Lord has commanded to be done to make atonement for you. 35 At the entrance of the tent of meeting you shall remain day and night for seven days, performing what the Lord has (V)charged, so that you do not die, for so I have been commanded.” 36 And Aaron and his sons did all the things that the Lord commanded by Moses.

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.

A ordenação de Aarão e dos seus filhos
(Êx 29.1-37)
8 O Senhor disse a Moisés: 2 “Agora traz Aarão e os seus filhos para a entrada da tenda do encontro, e que venham com as vestes sacerdotais, mais o óleo de unção, e ainda um novilho para oferecer pelo pecado, dois carneiros e o cesto de pães sem fermento. 3 Convoca todo o povo de Israel para uma assembleia à entrada da tenda do encontro.”
4 Moisés fez o que o Senhor lhe tinha ordenado e convocou todo o povo ali e disse-lhes: 5 “O que agora vou fazer foi ordenado pelo Senhor.” 6 Então dirigiu-se a Aarão e seus filhos, lavou-os com água, 7 vestiu Aarão com a túnica especial, pôs-lhe a faixa, o manto, o colete do éfode e o cinto belamente tecido. 8 De seguida, pôs-lhe o peitoral e depositou o urim e o tumim[a] na sua bolsa. 9 Colocou-lhe na cabeça o turbante, tendo na parte frontal a placa sagrada em ouro, isto é, a coroa santa, tal como o Senhor tinha ordenado.
10 Então Moisés pegou no azeite da unção, aspergiu-o sobre o próprio tabernáculo e sobre tudo o que ele continha, para tudo santificar. 11 Aspergiu também o altar sete vezes, assim como os seus utensílios e também a bacia e o pedestal, para os santificar. 12 Depois derramou o azeite da unção sobre a cabeça de Aarão, santificando-o assim de forma a poder executar o serviço a que se destinava. 13 Em seguida, vestiu as túnicas aos filhos de Aarão, e ainda os cintos e os gorros, tal como o Senhor lhe tinha ordenado.
14 Seguidamente, pegou no novilho da oferta pelo pecado, e Aarão e os seus filhos puseram-lhe as mãos em cima da cabeça, 15 enquanto Moisés o matava. Salpicou com o seu dedo um pouco do sangue do animal sobre os quatro chifres do altar e sobre o próprio altar, para o santificar, e derramou o resto do sangue na base do altar. Foi assim que santificou o altar fazendo resgate por ele. 16 Tomou toda a gordura que cobria as entranhas, toda a massa gordurosa que cobre o fígado, os dois rins com a sua gordura e queimou tudo no altar. 17 A carcaça do novilho, com a pele e o esterco, foi queimada fora do acampamento, tal como o Senhor ordenara a Moisés.
18 Depois apresentou ao Senhor um dos carneiros como holocausto. Aarão e os filhos puseram-lhe as mãos na cabeça; 19 Moisés matou-o, aspergindo o sangue sobre todo o altar. 20 Depois esquartejou-o e queimou os pedaços, assim como a cabeça e a gordura. 21 Em seguida, lavou com água as partes internas e as patas, e queimou-o no altar, de forma que todo o carneiro foi consumido perante o Senhor; um holocausto ao Senhor, que lhe é muito agradável; oferta queimada, conforme as indicações do Senhor a Moisés.
22 Moisés apresentou o outro carneiro, o carneiro da consagração. Aarão e os seus filhos puseram as mãos na cabeça do animal, 23 Moisés matou-o e pôs um pouco do sangue na ponta da orelha direita de Aarão, assim como no seu polegar direito e ainda no dedo grande do seu pé direito. 24 Depois fez o mesmo em relação aos filhos, pondo do sangue sobre a ponta das orelhas e sobre os polegares das mãos e dos pés direitos. O resto do sangue aspergiu-o sobre todo o altar.
25 De seguida, tomou a gordura, a cauda, a gordura das partes intestinais, a vesícula, os dois rins com a respetiva gordura e a espádua direita; 26 pôs sobre isto um bolo sem fermento, um bolo untado com azeite e uma bolacha, tirados do cesto que fora colocado perante o Senhor. 27 Tudo foi posto nas mãos de Aarão e dos seus filhos para ser apresentado ao Senhor, com um gesto de apresentação cerimonial, na frente do altar. 28 Moisés tomou depois isso das suas mãos e queimou-o sobre o altar; é um holocausto ao Senhor, que lhe é muito agradável; oferta queimada ao Senhor. 29 Então Moisés pegou no peito e apresentou ao Senhor, movendo-o diante do altar, com um gesto de apresentação cerimonial. Esta foi a porção pertencente a Moisés, do carneiro da consagração, conforme o Senhor o tinha instruído.
30 Em seguida, tomou algum do azeite, e parte do sangue que fora aspergido sobre o altar, e salpicou Aarão e as suas roupas, fazendo o mesmo com os filhos, consagrando dessa forma Aarão, seus filhos e as respetivas roupas.
31 Disse Moisés a Aarão e seus filhos: “Cozam a carne na entrada da tenda do encontro; comam-na com o pão que está no cesto da consagração, tal como vos instruí que fizessem. 32 Tudo o que restar da carne e do pão deverá ser queimado.”
33 E disse-lhes que não deixassem a entrada da tenda do encontro durante sete dias, após os quais a sua consagração ficaria completa. Esta deverá durar pois sete dias.
34 Moisés afirmou novamente que o que fizera nesse dia tinha sido ordenado pelo Senhor, a fim de fazer resgate por eles. 35 E mais uma vez avisou Aarão e seus filhos que deveriam ficar à porta da tenda do encontro dia e noite pelo espaço de sete dias. “Se saírem daí”, disse-lhes, “morrerão; foi o que o Senhor disse.”
36 E Aarão e os seus filhos fizeram tudo o que o Senhor ordenara a Moisés.
