1 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 "Take Aaron, and his sons with him, along with the garments, the anointing oil, the bull for the sin offering, the two rams, and the basket of unleavened bread,
3 and gather all the congregation at the entrance of the tent of meeting."
4 Moses did just as the LORD had commanded him, and the congregation gathered at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
5 Moses told the congregation, "This is what the LORD has commanded to be done."
6 Moses brought Aaron and his sons forward and washed them with water.
7 He put the tunic on Aaron, girded him with the sash, clothed him in the robe, and put the ephod on him; then he girded him with the woven band of the ephod and bound the ephod to him with it.
8 He put the breastpiece on him and placed in the breastpiece the Urim and the Thummim.
9 He put the turban on his head, and on the front of the turban he put the gold plate, the holy diadem, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
10 Moses then took the anointing oil and anointed the tabernacle and everything in it, and so consecrated them.
11 Some of it he sprinkled on the altar seven times; he anointed the altar with all its utensils, and the basin with its stand, to consecrate them.
12 He poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron's head and anointed him, to consecrate him.
13 Next Moses brought Aaron's sons forward, clothed them in tunics, girded them with sashes, and wrapped headbands on them, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
14 He then brought near the bull for the sin offering, and Aaron and his sons pressed their hands on the head of the bull for the sin offering.
15 He slaughtered it, and Moses took the blood and with his finger put it on every horn of the altar round about, purifying the altar; the blood he poured out at the base of the altar, and so he consecrated it, making atonement for it.
16 He took all the fat on the inner parts, the appendage of the liver, and the two kidneys with their fat, and Moses sent them up in smoke on the altar.
17 But the bull, with its hide, its flesh, and its dung, he burned with fire outside the camp, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
18 Then he brought near the ram of the burnt offering, and Aaron and his sons pressed their hands on the ram's head.
19 He slaughtered it, and Moses dashed the blood on every side of the altar.
20 The ram he cut into its pieces, and Moses sent up in smoke the head, the pieces, and the suet.
21 The inner parts and the legs he washed in water, and Moses sent up the whole ram in smoke on the altar. It was a burnt offering for a pleasing aroma, a food offering to the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
22 Then he brought near the second ram, the ram of ordination, and Aaron and his sons pressed their hands on the ram's head.
23 He slaughtered it, and Moses took some of its blood and put it on Aaron's right earlobe, on his right thumb, and on the big toe of his right foot.
24 Then he brought Aaron's sons near, and Moses put some of the blood on their right earlobes, on their right thumbs, and on the big toes of their right feet. And Moses dashed the blood on every side of the altar.
25 He took the fat—the broad tail, all the fat on the inner parts, the appendage of the liver, the two kidneys and their fat—and the right thigh.
26 From the basket of unleavened bread that stood before the LORD he took one unleavened cake, one cake of bread made with oil, and one wafer, and laid them on the fat portions and on the right thigh.
27 He placed all of these in Aaron's hands and in his sons' hands and waved them as a wave offering before the LORD.
28 Then Moses took them back from their hands and sent them up in smoke on the altar on top of the burnt offering. They were an ordination offering for a pleasing aroma; it was a food offering to the LORD.
29 Moses also took the breast and waved it as a wave offering before the LORD. It was Moses' share of the ram of ordination, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
30 Moses then took some of the anointing oil and some of the blood on the altar and sprinkled it on Aaron and on his garments, and on his sons and on his sons' garments with him. Thus he consecrated Aaron and his garments, and his sons and his sons' garments with him.
31 Moses said to Aaron and his sons, "Boil the meat at the entrance of the tent of meeting and eat it there, together with the bread that is in the basket of the ordination offering, just as I commanded when I said, 'Aaron and his sons are to eat it.'
32 Whatever is left over of the meat and the bread you shall burn up with fire.
33 For seven days you must not go out from the entrance of the tent of meeting, until the day your days of ordination are complete; for your ordination will take seven days.
34 What has been done this day, the LORD has commanded to be done, to make atonement for you.
35 You are to stay at the entrance of the tent of meeting day and night for seven days, keeping the LORD's charge, so that you will not die; for this is what I was commanded."
36 So Aaron and his sons did everything that the LORD had commanded by the hand of Moses.
