Lv 8:1Then Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

Lv 8:2Take Aaron and his sons with him, and the garments and the anointing oil and the bull of the sin offering and the two rams and the basket of unleavened bread;

Lv 8:3And gather all the assembly at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting.

Lv 8:4And Moses did just as Jehovah had commanded him, and the assembly was gathered at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting.

Lv 8:5And Moses said to the assembly, This is what Jehovah has commanded to be done.

Lv 8:6And Moses brought Aaron and his sons near and washed them with water.

Lv 8:27And he put all these in the palms of Aaron and in the palms of his sons, and he waved them as a wave offering before Jehovah.

Lv 8:32And what is left of the flesh and of the bread you shall burn with fire.

Lv 8:33And you shall not go out from the entrance of the Tent of Meeting for seven days, until the days of your consecration are fulfilled, for it will take seven days to consecrate you.

Lv 8:34As has been done this day, so Jehovah has commanded to do, to make expiation for you.

Lv 8:36And Aaron and his sons did all the things which Jehovah had commanded through Moses.
