Leviticus 9:5-17 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

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

6. Moses said, “This is what the Lord commanded you to do, that the glory of the Lord may appear to you.”

7. Then Moses said to Aaron, “Approach the altar and sacrifice your sin offering and your burnt offering; make atonement for yourself and the people. Sacrifice the people’s offering and make atonement for them, as the Lord commanded.”

8. So Aaron approached the altar and slaughtered the calf as a sin offering for himself.

9. Aaron’s sons brought the blood to him, and he dipped his finger in the blood and applied it to the horns of the altar. He poured out the blood at the base of the altar.

10. He burned the fat, the kidneys, and the fatty lobe of the liver from the sin offering on the altar, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

11. He burned up the flesh and the hide outside the camp.

12. Then he slaughtered the burnt offering. Aaron’s sons brought him the blood, and he sprinkled it on all sides of the altar.

13. They brought him the burnt offering piece by piece, along with the head, and he burned them on the altar.

14. He washed the entrails and the shanks and burned them with the burnt offering on the altar.

15. Aaron presented the people’s offering. He took the male goat for the people’s sin offering, slaughtered it, and made a sin offering with it as he did before.

16. He presented the burnt offering and sacrificed it according to the regulation.

17. Next he presented the grain offering, took a handful of it, and burned it on the altar in addition to the morning burnt offering.
