Leviticus 8:16-28 English Standard Version (ESV)

16. 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 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. 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 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 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 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.
