Leviticus 9:1-5 Common English Bible (CEB)

1. On the eighth day, Moses called for Aaron, Aaron’s sons, and Israel’s elders.

2. He said to Aaron, "Take a young bull from the herd as a purification offering and a ram as an entirely burned offering, both flawless animals, and bring them before the Lord.

3. Then tell the Israelites, ‘Take a male goat as a purification offering; a young bull and a sheep—both one-year-old flawless animals—as an entirely burned offering;

4. an ox and a ram as a well-being sacrifice before the Lord; and a grain offering mixed with oil, because today the Lord will appear to you.’"

5. They brought what Moses had commanded to the front of the meeting tent. Then the whole community came forward and stood before the Lord.
