¹⁹“Take the other ram—the ram used for dedication—and tell Aaron and his sons to put their hands on its head. ²⁰Kill it, and take some of its blood and put it on the lobes of the right ears of Aaron and his sons, on the thumbs of their right hands and on the big toes of their right feet. Throw the rest of the blood against all four sides of the altar. ²¹Take some of the blood that is on the altar and some of the anointing oil, and sprinkle it on Aaron and his clothes and on his sons and their clothes. He, his sons, and their clothes will then be dedicated to me.

²²“Cut away the ram’s fat, the fat tail, the fat covering the internal organs, the best part of the liver, the two kidneys with the fat on them, and the right thigh. ²³From 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. ²⁴Put all this food in the hands of Aaron and his sons and tell them to dedicate it to me as a special gift. ²⁵Then 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.
