Exodus 29:15-21 Good News Bible (GNB)

15. “Take one of the rams and tell Aaron and his sons to put their hands on its head.

16. Kill it, and take its blood and throw it against all four sides of the altar.

17. Cut the ram in pieces; wash its internal organs and its hind legs, and put them on top of the head and the other pieces.

18. Burn the whole ram on the altar as a food offering. The odour of this offering pleases me.

19. “Take the other ram — the ram used for dedication — and tell Aaron and his sons to put their hands on its head.

20. Kill it, and take some of its blood and put it on the lobes of the right ears of Aaron and his sons, on the thumbs of their right-hands and on the big toes of their right feet. Throw the rest of the blood against all four sides of the altar.

21. Take some of the blood that is on the altar and some of the anointing oil, and sprinkle it on Aaron and his clothes and on his sons and their clothes. He, his sons, and their clothes will then be dedicated to me.
