Exodus 29:7-21 Modern English Version (MEV)

7. Then shall you take the anointing oil and pour it on his head and anoint him.

8. You shall bring his sons and put tunics on them.

9. You shall gird them with sashes, Aaron and his sons, and put the headbands on them, and the priest’s office shall be theirs for a perpetual statute. Thus you shall consecrate Aaron and his sons.

10. Then you shall bring a bull before the tent of meeting, and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands on the head of the bull.

11. You shall kill the bull before the Lord by the door of the tent of meeting.

12. You shall take of the blood of the bull, and put it on the horns of the altar with your finger, and pour all the blood beside the bottom of the altar.

13. You shall take all the fat that covers the entrails, and the lobe that is above the liver, and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, and burn them on the altar.

14. But the flesh of the bull, its skin, and its dung, you shall burn with fire outside the camp. It is a sin offering.

15. You shall also take one ram, and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands on the head of the ram.

16. You shall slay the ram, and you shall take its blood and sprinkle it around on the altar.

17. Then you shall cut the ram in pieces, and wash its entrails and its legs, and put them with its pieces and its head.

18. You shall burn the whole ram on the altar. It is a burnt offering to the Lord. It is a soothing aroma, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

19. Then you shall take the other ram, and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands on the head of the ram.

20. You shall kill the ram and take some of its blood and put it on the tip of the right ear of Aaron, and on the tip of the right ear of his sons, and on the thumb of their right hand, and on the great toe of their right foot, and sprinkle the blood around on the altar.

21. You shall take some of the blood that is on the altar and some of the anointing oil and sprinkle it on Aaron and on his garments, and on his sons, and on the garments of his sons with him. So he and his garments shall be consecrated, along with his sons and his sons’ garments with him.
