23. From the basket of bread which has been offered to me, take one loaf of each kind: one loaf made with olive oil and one made without it and one biscuit.

24. Put all this food in the hands of Aaron and his sons and tell them to dedicate it to me as a special gift.

25. Then take it from them and burn it on the altar, on top of the burnt offering, as a food offering to me. The odour of this offering pleases me.

26. “Take the breast of this ram and dedicate it to me as a special gift. This part of the animal will be yours.

27. “When a priest is ordained, the breast and the thigh of the ram being used for the ordination are to be dedicated to me as a special gift and set aside for the priests.

28. It is my unchanging decision that when my people make their fellowship offerings, the breast and the thigh of the animal belong to the priests. This is the people's gift to me, the Lord.

29. “Aaron's priestly garments are to be handed on to his sons after his death, for them to wear when they are ordained.
