Leviticus 8:28-36 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

28. He took them again from their hands, and burnt them upon the altar of holocaust, because it was the oblation of consecration, for a sweet odour of sacrifice to the Lord.

29. And he took of the ram of consecration, the breast for his portion, elevating it before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded him.

30. And taking the ointment, and the blood that was upon the altar, he sprinkled Aaron, and his vestments, and his sons, and their vestments with it.

31. And when he had sanctified them in their vestments, he commanded them, saying: Boil the flesh before the door of the tabernacle, and there eat it. Eat ye also the loaves of consecration, that are laid in the basket, as the Lord commanded me, saying: Aaron and his sons shall eat them:

32. And whatsoever shall be left of the flesh and the leaves, shall be consumed with fire.

33. And you shall not go out of the door of the tabernacle for seven days, until the day wherein the time of your consecration shall be expired. For in seven days the consecration is finished:

34. As at this present it hath been done, that the rite of the sacrifice might be accomplished.

35. Day and night shall you remain in the tabernacle observing the watches of the Lord, lest you die: for so it hath been commanded me.

36. And Aaron and his sons did all things which the Lord spoke by the hand of Moses.
