Leviticus 9

¹And when the eighth day was come, Moyses called Aaron and his sons, and the ancients of Israel, and said to Aaron.

²Take of the herd a calf for sin, and a ram for an holocaust, both without spot, and offer them before our Lord.

³And to the children of Israel thou shalt speak: Take ye a buck goat for sin, and a calf, and a lamb, of a year old, & without spot for an holocaust,

⁴an ox and a ram for pacifics: and immolate them before our Lord, offering in the sacrifice of every one flour tempered with oil; for today our Lord will appear to you.

⁵They took therefore all things that Moyses had commanded before the door of the tabernacle: where when all the multitude stood,

⁶Moyses said: This is the word, which our Lord hath commanded: do it, and his glory will appear to you.

⁷And he said to Aaron: Approach to the altar, & immolate for thy sin: offer the holocaust, and pray for thyself and for the people, and when thou hast slain the people's host, pray for them, as our Lord hath commanded.

⁸And forthwith Aaron approaching to the altar, immolated the calf for his sin:

⁹the blood whereof his sons brought to him: wherein dipping his finger, he touched the horns of the altar, and poured the rest at the foot thereof.

¹⁰And the fat, and the little kidneys, and the caul of the liver, which are for sin, he burnt upon the altar, as our Lord had commanded Moyses:

¹¹but the flesh and skin thereof he burnt with fire without the camp.

¹²He immolated also the victim of holocaust: and his sons brought him the blood thereof, which he poured in the circuit of the altar.

¹³The host also it-self being cut into pieces, they brought with the head and every member. All which he burnt with fire upon the altar,

¹⁴having first washed the entrails and the feet with water.

¹⁵And offering for the sin of the people, he slew the buck goat: and expiating the altar:

¹⁶he made the holocaust,

¹⁷adding in the sacrifice the libaments, which are offered withal, and burning them upon the altar, beside the ceremonies of the morning holocaust.

¹⁸He immolated also the ox, and the ram, the pacific hosts of the people: and his sons brought him the blood, which he poured upon the altar round about.

¹⁹The fat also of the ox, and the rump of the ram, and the two little kidneys with their fat, and the caul of the liver,

²⁰they put upon the breasts, & after the fat was burnt upon the altar,

²¹their breasts, & the right shoulders, Aaron did separate, elevating them before our Lord, as Moyses had commanded.

²²And stretching forth his hand to the people, he blessed them. And so the hosts for sin, and the holocausts, and the pacifics being finished, he descended.

²³And Moyses and Aaron going into the tabernacle of testimony, & afterward coming forth, blessed the people. And the glory of our Lord appeared to all the multitude:

²⁴& behold a fire coming forth from our Lord, devoured the holocaust, and the fat that was upon the altar: Which thing, when the multitude had seen, they praised our Lord, falling on their faces.
