Exodus 29:19–34

¹⁹“Take the other ram,^v and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on its head.^{w 20}Slaughter it, 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.^x Then splash blood against the sides of the altar.^{y 21}And take some blood^z from the altar and some of the anointing oil^a and sprinkle it on Aaron and his garments and on his sons and their garments. Then he and his sons and their garments will be consecrated.^b

²²“Take from this ram the fat,^c the fat tail, the fat on the internal organs, the long lobe of the liver, both kidneys with the fat on them, and the right thigh. (This is the ram for the ordination.) ²³From the basket of bread made without yeast, which is before the Lord, take one round loaf, one thick loaf with olive oil mixed in, and one thin loaf. ²⁴Put all these in the hands of Aaron and his sons and have them wave them before the Lord as a wave offering.^{d 25}Then take them from their hands and burn them on the altar along with the burnt offering for a pleasing aroma to the Lord, a food offering presented to the Lord.^{e 26}After you take the breast of the ram for Aaron’s ordination, wave it before the Lord as a wave offering, and it will be your share.^f

²⁷“Consecrate those parts of the ordination ram that belong to Aaron and his sons:^g the breast that was waved and the thigh that was presented. ²⁸This is always to be the perpetual share from the Israelites for Aaron and his sons. It is the contribution the Israelites are to make to the Lord from their fellowship offerings.^h

²⁹“Aaron’s sacred garmentsⁱ will belong to his descendants so that they can be anointed and ordained in them.^{j 30}The son^k who succeeds him as priest and comes to the tent of meeting to minister in the Holy Place is to wear them seven days.

³¹“Take the ram^l for the ordination and cook the meat in a sacred place.^{m 32}At the entrance to the tent of meeting, Aaron and his sons are to eat the meat of the ram and the breadⁿ that is in the basket. ³³They are to eat these offerings by which atonement was made for their ordination and consecration. But no one else may eat^o them, because they are sacred. ³⁴And if any of the meat of the ordination ram or any bread is left over till morning,^p burn it up. It must not be eaten, because it is sacred.
