1Now this is what you must do to set them apart to me so that they may serve me as priests. Take one young bull and two rams without blemish,
2bread without yeast, and cakes without yeast mixed with oil. Also take wafers without yeast rubbed with oil. Make the wafers using fine wheat flour.
3You must put them into a single basket, bring them in the basket, and present them with the bull and the two rams.
4You must present Aaron and his sons at the entrance to the tent of meeting. You must wash Aaron and his sons in water.
5You must take the garments and clothe Aaron with the coat, the robe of the ephod, the ephod, and the breastpiece, fastening the finely-woven waistband of the ephod around him.
6You must set the turban on his head and put the holy crown on the turban.
7Then take the anointing oil and pour it on his head, and in this way anoint him.
8You must bring his sons and put coats on them.
9You must clothe Aaron and his sons with sashes and put headbands on them. The work of the priesthood will belong to them by permanent law. In this way you must consecrate Aaron and his sons for them to serve me.
10You must all bring the bull before the tent of meeting, and Aaron and his sons must lay their hands on its head.
11You must kill the bull before Yahweh at the entrance to the tent of meeting.
12You must take some of the bull's blood and put it on the horns of the altar with your finger, and you must pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.
13You must take all the fat that covers the inner parts, and also take the covering of the liver and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them; burn it all on the altar.
14But as for the bull's flesh, as well as its skin and dung, you must burn it up outside the camp. It will be a sin offering.
15You must also take the one ram, and Aaron and his sons must lay their hands on its head.
16You must kill the ram, then take its blood and sprinkle it on all sides of the altar.
17You must cut the ram into pieces and wash its inner parts and its legs, and you must put the inner parts, together with its pieces and with its head,
18on the altar. Then burn the whole ram. It will be a burnt offering to Yahweh, a sweet aroma, an offering made to Yahweh by fire.

19You must then take the other ram, and Aaron and his sons must lay their hands on its head.
20Then you must kill the ram and take some of its blood. Put it on the tip of Aaron's right ear, and on the tip of his sons' right ears, on the thumb of their right hands, and on the great toe of their right feet. Then you must sprinkle the blood against the altar on every side.
21You must take some of the blood that is on the altar and some of the anointing oil, and sprinkle it all on Aaron and on his garments, and also on his sons and on their garments. Aaron will then be set apart for me, as well as his garments, his sons and his sons' garments with him.
22You must take the ram's fat, the fat tail, the fat that covers the inner parts, the covering of the liver, the two kidneys and the fat on them, and the right thigh—for this ram is for the priests' consecration to me.
23Take one loaf of bread, one cake of bread made with oil, and one wafer out of the basket of bread without yeast that is before Yahweh.
24You must put these in Aaron's hands and in the hands of his sons and wave them before me for a wave offering before Yahweh.
25You must then take the food from their hands and burn it on the altar with the burnt offering. It will produce a sweet aroma for me; it will be an offering made to me by fire.
26You must take the breast of Aaron's ram of dedication and wave it for a wave offering before Yahweh, and it will be your share.
27You must set apart to me the breast of the wave offering that is waved, and the thigh that is the contribution for the priests—both the breast that was waved and the thigh that was contributed for Aaron and his sons.
28This will be a perpetual ordinance for Aaron and his sons. It will be a contribution from the people of Israel to give to Yahweh from their peace offerings.
29The holy garments of Aaron must also be reserved for his sons after him. They are to be anointed in them and ordained to me in them.
30The priest who succeeds him from among his sons, who comes into the tent of meeting to serve me in the holy place, is to wear those garments for seven days.
31You must take the ram for the installation of the priests to me and boil its meat in a holy place.
32Aaron and his sons must eat the ram's meat and the bread that is in the basket at the entrance to the tent of meeting.
33They must eat the meat and bread that were given to atone for them and to ordain them, to be set apart to me. No one else may eat that food, because they must treat it as consecrated to me, reserved for me.
34If any of the meat of the ordination offering, or any of the bread, remains to the next morning, then you must burn it. It must not be eaten because it has been set apart to me.
35In this way, by following all that I have commanded you to do, you must treat Aaron and his sons. For seven days you must prepare them.
36Every day you must offer a bull as a sin offering for atonement. You must purify the altar by making atonement for it, and you must anoint it in order to set it apart to me.

37For seven days you must make atonement for the altar and set it apart it to Yahweh. Then the altar will be completely set apart to me. Whatever touches the altar will be set apart to Yahweh.
38You must regularly offer on the altar every day two lambs a year old.
39One lamb you must offer in the morning, and the other lamb you must offer about sundown.
40With the first lamb, offer a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with the fourth part of a hin of oil from pressed olives, and the fourth part of a hin of wine as a drink offering.
41You must offer the second lamb about sunset. You must offer the same grain offering as in the morning, and the same drink offering. These will produce a sweet aroma for me; it will be an offering made to me by fire.
42These must be regular burnt offerings throughout your generations, at the entrance to the tent of meeting before Yahweh, where I will meet with you to speak to you there.
43That is where I will meet with the Israelites; the tent will be set apart for me by my glory.
44I will set apart the tent of meeting and the altar for these to belong to me alone. I will also set apart Aaron and his sons to serve me as priests.
45I will live among the Israelites and will be their God.
46They will know that I am Yahweh, their God, who brought them out from the land of Egypt so that I might live among them. I am Yahweh, their God.
