Leviticus 9:16-24 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

16. He offered the holocaust:

17. Adding in the sacrifice the libations, which are offered withal, and burning them upon the altar, besides the ceremonies of the morning holocaust.

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

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

20. They put upon the breasts. And after the fat was burnt upon the altar,

21. Aaron separated their breasts, and the right shoulders, elevating them before the Lord, as Moses had commanded.

22. And stretching forth his hands to the people, he blessed them. And so the victims for sin, and the holocausts, and the peace offerings being finished, he came down.

23. And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of the testimony, and afterwards came forth and blessed the people. And the glory of the Lord appeared to all the multitude:

24. And behold a fire, coming forth from the Lord, devoured the holocaust, and the fat that was upon the altar: which when the multitude saw, they praised the Lord, falling on their faces.
