Exodus 29:35-46 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

35. All that I have instructed you concerning Aaron and his sons, you shall do. For seven days shall you consecrate their hands,

36. and you shall offer a calf for sin on each day, as an atonement. And you shall cleanse the altar when you will have immolated the victim of expiation, and you shall anoint it for sanctification.

37. For seven days, you shall expiate and sanctify the altar, and it shall be the Holy of holies. All those who will touch it must be sanctified.

38. This is what you shall acquire for the altar: Two one-year-old lambs, each day continually,

39. one lamb in the morning, and the other in the evening;

40. for the one lamb, a tenth part of fine flour sprinkled with crushed oil, which shall have the measure of the fourth part of a hin, and wine for a libation, of the same measure;

41. truly, the other lamb you shall offer in the evening, according to the ritual of the morning oblation, and according to what we have said, as an odor of sweetness.

42. It is a sacrifice to the Lord, by a perpetual oblation among your generations, at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony before the Lord, where I resolve to speak to you.

43. And there I will instruct the sons of Israel, and the altar shall be sanctified by my glory.

44. I will also sanctify the tabernacle of the testimony with the altar, and Aaron with his sons, to exercise the priesthood for me.

45. And I will live in the midst of the sons of Israel, and I will be their God.

46. And they shall know that I am the Lord their God, who led them away from the land of Egypt, so that I might dwell among them. I am the Lord their God."
