:

When anyone touches any unclean thing, the uncleanness of man, or an unclean animal, or any unclean abomination, and eats some of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which belong to Yahweh, that soul shall be cut off from his people.’”

:

Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

:

“Speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘You shall eat no fat, of bull, or sheep, or goat.

:

The fat of that which dies of itself, and the fat of that which is torn of animals, may be used for any other service, but you shall in no way eat of it.

:

For whoever eats the fat of the animal, of which men offer an offering made by fire to Yahweh, even the soul who eats it shall be cut off from his people.

:

You shall not eat any blood, whether it is of bird or of animal, in any of your dwellings.

:

Whoever it is who eats any blood, that soul shall be cut off from his people.’”

:

Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

:

“Speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘He who offers the sacrifice of his peace offerings to Yahweh shall bring his offering to Yahweh out of the sacrifice of his peace offerings.

:

With his own hands he shall bring the offerings of Yahweh made by fire. He shall bring the fat with the breast, that the breast may be waved for a wave offering before Yahweh.

:

The priest shall burn the fat on the altar, but the breast shall be Aaron’s and his sons’.

:

The right thigh you shall give to the priest for a heave offering out of the sacrifices of your peace offerings.

:

He among the sons of Aaron who offers the blood of the peace offerings, and the fat, shall have the right thigh for a portion.

:

For the waved breast and the heaved thigh I have taken from the children of Israel out of the sacrifices of their peace offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons as their portion forever from the children of Israel.’”

:

This is the anointing portion of Aaron, and the anointing portion of his sons, out of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire, in the day when he presented them to minister to Yahweh in the priest’s office;

:

which Yahweh commanded to be given them of the children of Israel, in the day that he anointed them. It is their portion forever throughout their generations.

:

This is the law of the burnt offering, of the meal offering, and of the sin offering, and of the trespass offering, and of the consecration, and of the sacrifice of peace offerings;

:

which Yahweh commanded Moses in Mount Sinai, in the day that he commanded the children of Israel to offer their offerings to Yahweh, in the wilderness of Sinai.

:

Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

:

“Take Aaron and his sons with him, and the garments, and the anointing oil, and the bull of the sin offering, and the two rams, and the basket of unleavened bread;

:

and assemble all the congregation at the door of the Tent of Meeting.”

:

Moses did as Yahweh commanded him; and the congregation was assembled at the door of the Tent of Meeting.

:

Moses said to the congregation, “This is the thing which Yahweh has commanded to be done.”

:

Moses brought Aaron and his sons, and washed them with water.

:

He put the coat on him, tied the sash on him, clothed him with the robe, put the ephod on him, and he tied the skillfully woven band of the ephod on him, and fastened it to him with it.

:

He placed the breastplate on him; and in the breastplate he put the Urim and the Thummim.

:

He set the turban on his head; and on the turban, in front, he set the golden plate, the holy crown; as Yahweh commanded Moses.

:

Moses took the anointing oil, and anointed the tabernacle and all that was in it, and sanctified them.

:

He sprinkled it on the altar seven times, and anointed the altar and all its vessels, and the basin and its base, to sanctify them.

:

He poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron’s head, and anointed him, to sanctify him.

:

Moses brought Aaron’s sons, and clothed them with coats, and tied sashes on them, and put headbands on them; as Yahweh commanded Moses.

:

He brought the bull of the sin offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the bull of the sin offering.

:

He killed it; and Moses took the blood, and put it around on the horns of the altar with his finger, and purified the altar, and poured out the blood at the base of the altar, and sanctified it, to make atonement for it.

:

He took all the fat that was on the innards, and the cover of the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat; and Moses burned it on the altar.

:

But the bull, and its skin, and its flesh, and its dung, he burned with fire outside the camp; as Yahweh commanded Moses.

:

He presented the ram of the burnt offering: and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram.

:

He killed it; and Moses sprinkled the blood around on the altar.

:

He cut the ram into its pieces; and Moses burned the head, and the pieces, and the fat.

:

He washed the innards and the legs with water; and Moses burned the whole ram on the altar. It was a burnt offering for a pleasant aroma. It was an offering made by fire to Yahweh; as Yahweh commanded Moses.

:

He presented the other ram, the ram of consecration: and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram.

:

He killed it; and Moses took some of its blood, and put it on the tip of Aaron’s right ear, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the great toe of his right foot.

:

He brought Aaron’s sons; and Moses put some of the blood on the tip of their right ear, and on the thumb of their right hand, and on the great toe of their right foot; and Moses sprinkled the blood around on the altar.

:

He took the fat, and the fat tail, and all the fat that was on the innards, and the cover of the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat, and the right thigh;

:

and out of the basket of unleavened bread, that was before Yahweh, he took one unleavened cake, and one cake of oiled bread, and one wafer, and placed them on the fat, and on the right thigh.

:

He put all these in Aaron’s hands and in his sons’ hands, and waved them for a wave offering before Yahweh.

:

Moses took them from their hands, and burned them on the altar on the burnt offering. They were a consecration for a pleasant aroma. It was an offering made by fire to Yahweh.

:

Moses took the breast, and waved it for a wave offering before Yahweh. It was Moses’ portion of the ram of consecration, as Yahweh commanded Moses.

:

Moses took some of the anointing oil, and some of the blood which was on the altar, and sprinkled it on Aaron, on his garments, and on his sons, and on his sons’ garments with him, and sanctified Aaron, his garments, and his sons, and his sons’ garments with him.

:

Moses said to Aaron and to his sons, “Boil the flesh at the door of the Tent of Meeting, and there eat it and the bread that is in the basket of consecration, as I commanded, saying, ‘Aaron and his sons shall eat it.’

:

What remains of the flesh and of the bread you shall burn with fire.

:

You shall not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting seven days, until the days of your consecration are fulfilled: for he shall consecrate you seven days.

:

What has been done this day, so Yahweh has commanded to do, to make atonement for you.

:

You shall stay at the door of the Tent of Meeting day and night seven days, and keep Yahweh’s command, that you don’t die: for so I am commanded.”

:

Aaron and his sons did all the things which Yahweh commanded by Moses.

:

It happened on the eighth day, that Moses called Aaron and his sons, and the elders of Israel;

:

and he said to Aaron, “Take a calf from the herd for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer them before Yahweh.

:

You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘Take a male goat for a sin offering; and a calf and a lamb, both a year old, without blemish, for a burnt offering;

:

and a bull and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before Yahweh; and a meal offering mixed with oil: for today Yahweh appears to you.’”

:

They brought what Moses commanded before the Tent of Meeting: and all the congregation drew near and stood before Yahweh.

:

Moses said, “This is the thing which Yahweh commanded that you should do: and the glory of Yahweh shall appear to you.”

:

Moses said to Aaron, “Draw near to the altar, and offer your sin offering, and your burnt offering, and make atonement for yourself, and for the people; and offer the offering of the people, and make atonement for them; as Yahweh commanded.”

:

So Aaron drew near to the altar, and killed the calf of the sin offering, which was for himself.

:

The sons of Aaron presented the blood to him; and he dipped his finger in the blood, and put it on the horns of the altar, and poured out the blood at the base of the altar:

:

but the fat, and the kidneys, and the cover from the liver of the sin offering, he burned upon the altar; as Yahweh commanded Moses.

:

The flesh and the skin he burned with fire outside the camp.

:

He killed the burnt offering; and Aaron’s sons delivered the blood to him, and he sprinkled it around on the altar.

:

They delivered the burnt offering to him, piece by piece, and the head: and he burned them upon the altar.

:

He washed the innards and the legs, and burned them on the burnt offering on the altar.

:

He presented the people’s offering, and took the goat of the sin offering which was for the people, and killed it, and offered it for sin, like the first.

:

He presented the burnt offering, and offered it according to the ordinance.

:

He presented the meal offering, and filled his hand from there, and burned it upon the altar, besides the burnt offering of the morning.

:

He also killed the bull and the ram, the sacrifice of peace offerings, which was for the people: and Aaron’s sons delivered to him the blood, which he sprinkled around on the altar,

:

and the fat of the bull and of the ram, the fat tail, and that which covers the innards, and the kidneys, and the cover of the liver:

:

and they put the fat upon the breasts, and he burned the fat on the altar:

:

and the breasts and the right thigh Aaron waved for a wave offering before Yahweh, as Moses commanded.

:

Aaron lifted up his hands toward the people, and blessed them; and he came down from offering the sin offering, and the burnt offering, and the peace offerings.

:

Moses and Aaron went into the Tent of Meeting, and came out, and blessed the people: and the glory of Yahweh appeared to all the people.

:

There came forth fire from before Yahweh, and consumed the burnt offering and the fat upon the altar: and when all the people saw it, they shouted, and fell on their faces.

:

Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer, and put fire in it, and laid incense on it, and offered strange fire before Yahweh, which he had not commanded them.

:

And fire came forth from before Yahweh, and devoured them, and they died before Yahweh.

:

Then Moses said to Aaron, “This is what Yahweh spoke of, saying, ‘I will show myself holy to those who come near me, and before all the people I will be glorified.’” Aaron held his peace.

:

Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said to them, “Draw near, carry your brothers from before the sanctuary out of the camp.”

:

So they drew near, and carried them in their coats out of the camp, as Moses had said.

:

Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons, “Don’t let the hair of your heads go loose, neither tear your clothes; that you don’t die, and that he not be angry with all the congregation: but let your brothers, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which Yahweh has kindled.

:

You shall not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting, lest you die; for the anointing oil of Yahweh is on you.” They did according to the word of Moses.

:

Yahweh spoke to Aaron, saying,

:

“Drink no wine nor strong drink, you, nor your sons with you, when you go into the Tent of Meeting, that you don’t die: it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations:

:

and that you are to make a distinction between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the clean;

:

and that you are to teach the children of Israel all the statutes which Yahweh has spoken to them by Moses.”

:

Moses spoke to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons who were left, “Take the meal offering that remains of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire, and eat it without yeast beside the altar; for it is most holy;

:

and you shall eat it in a holy place, because it is your portion, and your sons’ portion, of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire: for so I am commanded.

:

The waved breast and the heaved thigh you shall eat in a clean place, you, and your sons, and your daughters with you: for they are given as your portion, and your sons’ portion, out of the sacrifices of the peace offerings of the children of Israel.

:

The heaved thigh and the waved breast they shall bring with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering before Yahweh: and it shall be yours, and your sons’ with you, as a portion forever; as Yahweh has commanded.”

:

Moses diligently inquired about the goat of the sin offering, and, behold, it was burned: and he was angry with Eleazar and with Ithamar, the sons of Aaron who were left, saying,

:

“Why haven’t you eaten the sin offering in the place of the sanctuary, since it is most holy, and he has given it you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them before Yahweh?

:

Behold, its blood was not brought into the inner part of the sanctuary: you certainly should have eaten it in the sanctuary, as I commanded.”

:

Aaron spoke to Moses, “Behold, this day they have offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before Yahweh; and such things as these have happened to me: and if I had eaten the sin offering today, would it have been pleasing in the sight of Yahweh?”

:

When Moses heard that, it was pleasing in his sight.

:

Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,

:

“Speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘These are the living things which you may eat among all the animals that are on the earth.
