The Third Book of Moses: Called Leviticus, Chapter 9
|
1 |
And it came to pass on the eighth day, that Moses called Aaron and
his sons, and the elders of Israel;
|
2 |
And he said unto Aaron, Take
thee a young calf for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering,
without blemish, and offer them before the LORD.
|
3 |
And unto the children of Israel thou shalt speak, saying, Take ye
a kid of the goats for a sin offering; and a calf and a lamb, both of
the first year, without blemish, for a burnt offering;
|
4 |
Also a
bullock and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before the LORD;
and a meat offering mingled with oil: for to day the LORD will appear
unto you.
|
5 |
And they brought that which Moses commanded before the tabernacle
of the congregation: and all the congregation drew near and stood
before the LORD.
|
6 |
And Moses said, This is the thing which the LORD commanded that ye
should do: and the glory of the LORD shall appear unto you.
|
7 |
And Moses said unto Aaron, Go unto the altar, and offer thy sin
offering, and thy burnt offering, and make an atonement for thyself,
and for the people: and offer the offering of the people, and make an
atonement for them; as the LORD commanded.
|
8 |
Aaron therefore went unto the altar, and slew the calf of the sin
offering, which was for himself.
|
9 |
And the sons of Aaron brought the blood unto him: and he dipped
his finger in the blood, and put it upon the horns of the altar, and
poured out the blood at the bottom of the altar:
|
10 |
But the fat, and
the kidneys, and the caul above the liver of the sin offering, he
burnt upon the altar; as the LORD commanded Moses.
|
11 |
And the flesh and the hide he burnt with fire without the camp.
|
12 |
And he slew the burnt offering; and Aaron's sons presented unto
him the blood, which he sprinkled round about upon the altar.
|
13 |
And they presented the burnt offering unto him, with the pieces
thereof, and the head: and he burnt them upon the altar.
|
14 |
And he did wash the inwards and the legs, and burnt them upon the
burnt offering on the altar.
|
15 |
And he brought the people's offering, and took the goat, which
was the sin offering for the people, and slew it, and offered it for
sin, as the first.
|
16 |
And he brought the burnt offering, and offered it according to
the manner.
|
17 |
And he brought the meat offering, and took an handful thereof,
and burnt it upon the altar, beside the burnt sacrifice of the
morning.
|
18 |
He slew also the bullock and the ram for a sacrifice of peace
offerings, which was for the people: and Aaron's sons presented unto
him the blood, which he sprinkled upon the altar round about,
|
19 |
And
the fat of the bullock and of the ram, the rump, and that which
covereth the inwards, and the kidneys, and the caul above the liver:
|
20 |
And they put the fat upon the breasts, and he burnt the fat upon
the altar:
|
21 |
And the breasts and the right shoulder Aaron waved for
a wave offering before the LORD; as Moses commanded.
|
22 |
And Aaron lifted up his hand toward the people, and blessed them,
and came down from offering of the sin offering, and the burnt
offering, and peace offerings.
|
23 |
And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of the congregation,
and came out, and blessed the people: and the glory of the LORD
appeared unto all the people.
|
24 |
And there came a fire out from before the LORD, and consumed upon
the altar the burnt offering and the fat: which when all the people
saw, they shouted, and fell on their faces.
