6. Bringing forward Aaron and his sons, Moses first washed them with water.
7. Then he put the tunic on Aaron, girded him with the sash, clothed him with the robe, placed the ephod on him, and girded him with the ephod’s embroidered belt, fastening the ephod on him with it.
8. He then set the breastpiece on him, putting the Urim and Thummim in it.
9. He put the turban on his head, attaching the gold medallion, the sacred headband, on the front of the turban, as the Lord had commanded Moses to do.
10. Taking the anointing oil, Moses anointed and consecrated the tabernacle and all that was in it.
11. Then he sprinkled some of the oil seven times on the altar, and anointed the altar, with all its utensils, and the laver, with its base, to consecrate them.
12. He also poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron’s head and anointed him, to consecrate him.
13. Moses likewise brought forward Aaron’s sons, clothed them with tunics, girded them with sashes, and put skullcaps on them, as the Lord had commanded him to do.
14. He brought forward the bull for a purification offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.
15. When it was slaughtered, Moses took the blood and with his finger he put it on the horns around the altar, thus purifying the altar. He poured out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar. Thus he consecrated it so that atonement could be made on it.
16. Taking all the fat that was over the inner organs, as well as the lobe of the liver and the two kidneys with their fat, Moses burned them on the altar.
17. The bull, however, with its hide and flesh and dung he burned in the fire outside the camp, as the Lord had commanded Moses to do.
18. He next brought forward the ram of the burnt offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.
19. When it was slaughtered, Moses splashed the blood on all sides of the altar.
20. After the ram was cut up into pieces, Moses burned the head, the cut-up pieces and the suet.
21. After the inner organs and the shanks were washed with water, Moses burned these remaining parts of the ram on the altar. It was a burnt offering for a sweet aroma, an oblation to the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
