Leviticus 9 · Parashat Shemini

And it came to pass on the eighth day, that Moshe called Aharon and his sons, and the elders of Yisra᾽el:

and he said to Aharon, Take thee a young calf for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer them before the Lord.

And to the children of Yisra᾽el thou shalt speak, saying, Take a kid of the goats for a sin offering; and a calf and a lamb, both of the first year, without blemish, for a burnt offering;

also a bullock and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before the Lord; and a meal offering mingled with oil: for today the Lord will appear to you.

And they brought that which Moshe commanded before the Tent of Meeting: and all the congregation drew near and stood before the Lord.

And Moshe said, This is the thing which the Lord commanded you to do: and the glory of the Lord shall appear to you.

And Moshe said to Aharon, Go to the altar, and offer thy sin offering, and thy burnt offering, and make atonement for thyself, and for the people: and offer the offering of the people, and make atonement for them; as the Lord commanded.

Aharon therefore went to the altar, and slaughtered the calf of the sin offering, which was for himself.

And the sons of Aharon brought the blood to him: and he dipped his finger in the blood, and put it upon the horns of the altar, and poured out the blood at the bottom of the altar:

but the fat, and the kidneys, and the appendage above the liver of the sin offering, he burnt upon the altar; as the Lord commanded Moshe.

And the flesh and the hide he burnt with fire outside the camp.

And he slaughtered the burnt offering; and Aharon’s sons presented to him the blood, which he sprinkled round about upon the altar.

And they presented the burnt offering to him, with its pieces, and the head: and he burnt them upon the altar.

And he did wash the inwards and the legs, and burnt them upon the burnt offering on the altar.

And he brought the people’s offering, and took the goat which was the sin offering for the people, and slaughtered it, and offered it for sin, as the first.

And he brought the burnt offering, and offered it according to the prescribed manner.

And he brought the meal offering, and took a handful of it, and burnt it upon the altar, beside the burnt sacrifice of the morning.

He also slaughtered the bullock and the ram for a sacrifice of peace offering, which was for the people: and Aharon’s sons presented to him the blood, which he sprinkled on the altar round about.

And the fat of the bullock and of the ram, the fat tail, and that which covers the inwards, and the kidneys, and the appendage of the liver:

and they put the fat upon the breasts, and he burnt the fat upon the altar:

and the breasts and the right shoulder Aharon waved for a wave offering before the Lord; as Moshe commanded.

And Aharon lifted up his hand towards the people, and blessed them, and came down from offering the sin offering, and the burnt offering, and the peace offerings.

And Moshe and Aharon went into the Tent of Meeting, and came out, and blessed the people: and the glory of the Lord appeared to all the people.

And there came a fire out from before the Lord, and consumed upon the altar the burnt offering and the fat: which, when all the people saw, they shouted, and fell on their faces.
