Leviticus 9

1
English · Berean Standard Bible

On the eighth day Moses summoned Aaron and his sons and the elders of Israel.

2
English · Berean Standard Bible

He said to Aaron, “Take for yourself a young bull for a sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering, both without blemish, and present them before the LORD.

3
English · Berean Standard Bible

Then speak to the Israelites and say, ‘Take a male goat for a sin offering, a calf and a lamb—both a year old and without blemish—for a burnt offering,

4
English · Berean Standard Bible

an ox and a ram for a peace offering to sacrifice before the LORD, and a grain offering mixed with oil. For today the LORD will appear to you.’”

5
English · Berean Standard Bible

So they took what Moses had commanded to the front of the Tent of Meeting, and the whole congregation drew near and stood before the LORD.

6
English · Berean Standard Bible

And Moses said, “This is what the LORD has commanded you to do, so that the glory of the LORD may appear to you.”

7
English · Berean Standard Bible

Then Moses said to Aaron, “Approach the altar and sacrifice your sin offering and your burnt offering to make atonement for yourself and for the people. And sacrifice the people’s offering to make atonement for them, as the LORD has commanded.”

8
English · Berean Standard Bible

So Aaron approached the altar and slaughtered the calf as a sin offering for himself.

9
English · Berean Standard Bible

The sons of Aaron brought the blood to him, and he dipped his finger in the blood and applied it to the horns of the altar. And he poured out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.

10
English · Berean Standard Bible

On the altar he burned the fat, the kidneys, and the lobe of the liver from the sin offering, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

11
English · Berean Standard Bible

But he burned up the flesh and the hide outside the camp.

12
English · Berean Standard Bible

Then Aaron slaughtered the burnt offering. His sons brought him the blood, and he splattered it on all sides of the altar.

13
English · Berean Standard Bible

They brought him the burnt offering piece by piece, including the head, and he burned them on the altar.

14
English · Berean Standard Bible

He washed the entrails and the legs and burned them atop the burnt offering on the altar.

15
English · Berean Standard Bible

Aaron then presented the people’s offering. He took the male goat for the people’s sin offering, slaughtered it, and offered it for sin like the first one.

16
English · Berean Standard Bible

He presented the burnt offering and offered it according to the ordinance.

17
English · Berean Standard Bible

Next he presented the grain offering, took a handful of it, and burned it on the altar in addition to the morning’s burnt offering.

18
English · Berean Standard Bible

Then he slaughtered the ox and the ram as the people’s peace offering. His sons brought him the blood, and he splattered it on all sides of the altar.

19
English · Berean Standard Bible

They also brought the fat portions from the ox and the ram—the fat tail, the fat covering the entrails, the kidneys, and the lobe of the liver—

20
English · Berean Standard Bible

and placed these on the breasts. Aaron burned the fat portions on the altar,

21
English · Berean Standard Bible

but he waved the breasts and the right thigh as a wave offering before the LORD, as Moses had commanded.

22
English · Berean Standard Bible

Aaron lifted up his hands toward the people and blessed them. And having made the sin offering, the burnt offering, and the peace offering, he stepped down.

23
English · Berean Standard Bible

Moses and Aaron then entered the Tent of Meeting. When they came out, they blessed the people, and the glory of the LORD appeared to all the people.

24
English · Berean Standard Bible

Fire came out from the presence of the LORD and consumed the burnt offering and the fat portions on the altar. And when all the people saw it, they shouted for joy and fell facedown.
