1
It came to pass on the eighth day that Moses called Aaron and his sons and the elders of Israel.
2
And he said to Aaron, "Take for yourself a young bull as a sin offering and a ram as a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer them before the Lord.
3
And to the children of Israel you shall speak, saying, 'Take a kid of the goats as a sin offering, and a calf and a lamb, both of the first year, without blemish, as a burnt offering,
4
also a bull and a ram as peace offerings, to sacrifice before the Lord, and a grain offering mixed with oil; for today the Lord will appear to you.' "
5
So they brought what Moses commanded before the tabernacle of meeting. And all the congregation drew near and stood before the Lord.
6
Then Moses said, "This is the thing which the Lord commanded you to do, and the glory of the Lord will appear to you."
7
And Moses said to Aaron, "Go to the altar, offer your sin offering and your burnt offering, and make atonement for yourself and for the people. Offer the offering of the people, and make atonement for them, as the Lord commanded."
8
Aaron therefore went to the altar and killed the calf of the sin offering, which was for himself.
9
Then the sons of Aaron brought the blood to him. And he dipped his finger in the blood, put it on the horns of the altar, and poured the blood at the base of the altar.
10
But the fat, the kidneys, and the fatty lobe from the liver of the sin offering he burned on the altar, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
11
The flesh and the hide he burned with fire outside the camp.
12
And he killed the burnt offering; and Aaron's sons presented to him the blood, which he sprinkled all around on the altar.
13
Then they presented the burnt offering to him, with its pieces and head, and he burned them on the altar.
