New Living Translation

Leviticus 9:16-24 New Living Translation (NLT)

16. Then he presented the burnt offering and sacrificed it in the prescribed way.

17. He also presented the grain offering, burning a handful of the flour mixture on the altar, in addition to the regular burnt offering for the morning.

18. Then Aaron slaughtered the bull and the ram for the people’s peace offering. His sons brought him the blood, and he splattered it against all sides of the altar.

19. Then he took the fat of the bull and the ram—the fat of the broad tail and from around the internal organs—along with the kidneys and the long lobes of the livers.

20. He placed these fat portions on top of the breasts of these animals and burned them on the altar.

21. Aaron then lifted up the breasts and right thighs as a special offering to the lord, just as Moses had commanded.

22. After that, Aaron raised his hands toward the people and blessed them. Then, after presenting the sin offering, the burnt offering, and the peace offering, he stepped down from the altar.

23. Then Moses and Aaron went into the Tabernacle, and when they came back out, they blessed the people again, and the glory of the lord appeared to the whole community.

24. Fire blazed forth from the lord’s presence and consumed the burnt offering and the fat on the altar. When the people saw this, they shouted with joy and fell face down on the ground.
