Aaron and His Sons Consecrated

1And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 2“Take Aaron and his sons with him, and the garments, the anointing oil, a bull as the sin offering, two rams, and a basket of unleavened bread; 3and gather all the congregation together at the door of the tabernacle of meeting.”
4So Moses did as the Lord commanded him. And the congregation was gathered together at the door of the tabernacle of meeting. 5And Moses said to the congregation, “This is what the Lord commanded to be done.”
6Then Moses brought Aaron and his sons and washed them with water. 7And he put the tunic on him, girded him with the sash, clothed him with the robe, and put the ephod on him; and he girded him with the intricately woven band of the ephod, and with it tied the ephod on him. 8Then he put the breastplate on him, and he put the Urim and the Thummim in the breastplate. 9And he put the turban on his head. Also on the turban, on its front, he put the golden plate, the holy crown, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
10Also Moses took the anointing oil, and anointed the tabernacle and all that was in it, and consecrated them. 11He sprinkled some of it on the altar seven times, anointed the altar and all its utensils, and the laver and its base, to consecrate them. 12And he poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron’s head and anointed him, to consecrate him.
13Then Moses brought Aaron’s sons and put tunics on them, girded them with sashes, and put hats on them, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
14And he brought the bull for the sin offering. Then Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the bull for the sin offering, 15and Moses killed it. Then he took the blood, and put some on the horns of the altar all around with his finger, and purified the altar. And he poured the blood at the base of the altar, and consecrated it, to make atonement for it. 16Then he took all the fat that was on the entrails, the fatty lobe attached to the liver, and the two kidneys with their fat, and Moses burned them on the altar. 17But the bull, its hide, its flesh, and its offal, he burned with fire outside the camp, as the Lordhad commanded Moses.
18Then he brought the ram as the burnt offering. And Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram, 19and Moses killed it. Then he sprinkled the blood all around on the altar. 20And he cut the ram into pieces; and Moses burned the head, the pieces, and the fat. 21Then he washed the entrails and the legs in water. And Moses burned the whole ram on the altar. It was a burnt sacrifice for a sweet aroma, an offering made by fire to the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
22And he brought the second ram, the ram of consecration. Then Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram, 23and Moses killed it. Also he took some of its blood and put it on the tip of Aaron’s right ear, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot. 24Then he brought Aaron’s sons. And Moses put some of the blood on the tips of their right ears, on the thumbs of their right hands, and on the big toes of their right feet. And Moses sprinkled the blood all around on the altar. 25Then he took the fat and the fat tail, all the fat that was on the entrails, the fatty lobe attached to the liver, the two kidneys and their fat, and the right thigh; 26and from the basket of unleavened bread that was before the Lord he took one unleavened cake, a cake of bread anointed with oil, and one wafer, and put them on the fat and on the right thigh; 27and he put all these in Aaron’s hands and in his sons’ hands, and waved them as a wave offering before the Lord. 28Then Moses took them from their hands and burned them on the altar, on the burnt offering. They were consecration offerings for a sweet aroma. That was an offering made by fire to the Lord. 29And Moses took the breast and waved it as a wave offering before the Lord. It was Moses’ part of the ram of consecration, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
30Then 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, on his sons, and on the garments of his sons with him; and he consecrated Aaron, his garments, his sons, and the garments of his sons with him.
31And Moses said to Aaron and his sons, “Boil the flesh at the door of the tabernacle of meeting, and eat it there with the bread that is in the basket of consecration offerings, as I commanded, saying, ‘Aaron and his sons shall eat it.’ 32What remains of the flesh and of the bread you shall burn with fire. 33And you shall not go outside the door of the tabernacle of meeting for seven days, until the days of your consecration are ended. For seven days he shall consecrate you. 34As he has done this day, so the Lord has commanded to do, to make atonement for you. 35Therefore you shall stay at the door of the tabernacle of meeting day and night for seven days, and keep the charge of the Lord, so that you may not die; for so I have been commanded.” 36So Aaron and his sons did all the things that the Lord had commanded by the hand of Moses.

祭司的條例

(出29.1-37)

1耶和華吩咐摩西說: 2「你領亞倫和他兒子前來,並將聖衣、膏油,與贖罪祭的一頭公牛、兩隻公綿羊、一筐無酵餅都一同帶來; 3又要召集全會眾到會幕的門口。」 4摩西就遵照耶和華的吩咐做了,於是會眾聚集在會幕的門口。 5摩西對會眾說:「這是耶和華所吩咐當做的事。」
6摩西領了亞倫和他兒子前來,用水洗他們。 7他給亞倫穿上內袍,束上腰帶,套上外袍,加上以弗得,再束上精緻的帶子,把以弗得繫在他身上。 8他又給亞倫戴上胸袋,把烏陵和土明放在胸袋內。 9他把禮冠戴在亞倫的頭上,禮冠前面安上金牌,成為聖冕,是照耶和華所吩咐摩西的。
10摩西用膏油抹帳幕和其中所有的,使它們成為聖。 11他又用膏油在祭壇上彈了七次,抹了壇和壇的一切器皿,以及洗濯盆和盆座,使它們成為聖。 12他把膏油倒在亞倫的頭上膏他,使他成為聖。 13摩西帶了亞倫的兒子來,給他們穿上內袍,束上腰帶,裹上頭巾,是照耶和華所吩咐摩西的。
14他把贖罪祭的公牛牽來,亞倫和他兒子按手在贖罪祭公牛的頭上, 15就宰了公牛。摩西取了血,用指頭抹在祭壇周圍的四個翹角上,使壇潔淨,再把其餘的血倒在壇的底座上,使壇成為聖,為壇贖罪。 16摩西把內臟所有的脂肪和肝上的網油,以及兩個腎與腎上的脂肪取出,都燒在壇上。 17至於公牛,連皮帶肉和糞,他都用火燒在營外,是照耶和華所吩咐摩西的。
18他把燔祭的公綿羊牽來,亞倫和他兒子按手在羊的頭上, 19就宰了公羊。摩西把血灑在祭壇的周圍, 20把羊切成塊,把頭和肉塊,以及脂肪拿去燒, 21他用水洗了內臟和腿之後,就把全羊燒在壇上,作為馨香的燔祭,是獻給耶和華的火祭,都是照耶和華所吩咐摩西的。
22他又牽來第二隻公綿羊,就是聖職禮的羊,亞倫和他兒子按手在羊的頭上, 23就宰了羊。摩西把一些血抹在亞倫的右耳垂上,右手的大拇指上和右腳的大腳趾上。 24他領了亞倫的兒子來,把一些血抹在他們的右耳垂上,右手的大拇指上和右腳的大腳趾上。摩西把其餘的血灑在壇的周圍。 25他把脂肪,肥尾巴、內臟所有的脂肪、肝上的網油、兩個腎、腎上的脂肪,和右腿取下, 26再從耶和華面前那裝無酵餅的籃子中取一個無酵餅、一個油餅和一個薄餅,把這些放在脂肪和右腿上。 27他把這一切放在亞倫和他兒子的手上,在耶和華面前搖一搖,作為搖祭。 28摩西從他們的手上把這些祭物拿來,放在壇的燔祭上燒,這就是聖職禮中獻給耶和華馨香的火祭。 29摩西拿羊的胸,在耶和華面前搖一搖,作為搖祭,這是聖職禮的羊歸給摩西的一份,是照耶和華所吩咐摩西的。
30摩西取些膏油和壇上的血,彈在亞倫和他的衣服上,以及他兒子和他們的衣服上,使亞倫和他的衣服,他兒子和他們的衣服都成為聖。
31摩西亞倫和他兒子說:「你們要在會幕的門口把肉煮了,在那裏吃這肉和聖職禮中籃子裏的餅,按我所吩咐的說:『這是亞倫和他兒子當吃的。』 32剩下的肉和餅,你們要用火焚燒。 33這七天,你們不可走出會幕的門口,直等到你們聖職禮的日子滿了,因為授予你們聖職需要七天 34今天所做的,都是耶和華吩咐要做的,好為你們贖罪。 35這七天,你們要晝夜留在會幕門內,遵守耶和華所吩咐的,免得你們死亡,因為所吩咐我的就是這樣。」 36於是,亞倫和他的兒子就做了耶和華藉着摩西所吩咐的一切事。
