Exodus 29
1 Sed et hoc facies, ut mihi in sacerdotio consecrentur. Tolle vitulum de armento, et arietes duos immaculatos,
Now 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,
2 panesque azymos, et crustulam absque fermento, quae conspersa sit oleo, lagana quoque azyma oleo lita: de simila triticea cuncta facies.
bread without yeast, and cakes without yeast mixed with oil. Also take wafers without yeast rubbed with oil. Make the wafers using fine wheat flour.
3 Et posita in canistro offeres: vitulum autem et duos arietes.
You must put them into a single basket, bring them in the basket, and present them with the bull and the two rams.
4 Et Aaron, ac filios eius applicabis ad ostium tabernaculi testimonii. Cumque laveris patrem cum filiis suis aqua,
You must present Aaron and his sons at the entrance to the tent of meeting. You must wash Aaron and his sons in water.
5 indues Aaron vestimentis suis, id est, linea et tunica, et superhumerali et rationali, quod constringes balteo.
You 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.
6 Et pones tiaram in capite eius, et laminam sanctam super tiaram,
You must set the turban on his head and put the holy crown on the turban.
7 et oleum unctionis fundes super caput eius: atque hoc ritu consecrabitur.
Then take the anointing oil and pour it on his head, and in this way anoint him.
8 Filios quoque illius applicabis, et indues tunicis lineis, cingesque balteo,
You must bring his sons and put coats on them.
9 Aaron scilicet et liberos eius, et impones eis mitras: eruntque sacerdotes mihi religione perpetua. Postquam initiaveris manus eorum,
You 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.
10 applicabis et vitulum coram tabernaculo testimonii. Imponentque Aaron et filii eius manus super caput illius,
You must all bring the bull before the tent of meeting, and Aaron and his sons must lay their hands on its head.
11 et mactabis eum in conspectu Domini, iuxta ostium tabernaculi testimonii.
You must kill the bull before Yahweh at the entrance to the tent of meeting.
12 Sumptumque de sanguine vituli, pones super cornua altaris digito tuo, reliquum autem sanguinem fundes iuxta basim eius.
You 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.
13 Sumes et adipem totum qui operit intestina, et reticulum iecoris, ac duos renes, et adipem qui super eos est, et offeres incensum super altare:
You 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.
14 carnes vero vituli et corium et fimum combures foris extra castra, eo quod pro peccato sit.
But 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.
15 Unum quoque arietem sumes, super cuius caput ponent Aaron et filii eius manus.
You must also take the one ram, and Aaron and his sons must lay their hands on its head.
16 Quem cum mactaveris, tolles de sanguine eius, et fundes circa altare.
You must kill the ram, then take its blood and sprinkle it on all sides of the altar.
17 ipsum autem arietem secabis in frustra. lotaque intestina eius ac pedes pones super concisas carnes, et super caput illius.
You 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,
18 Et offeres totum arietem in incensum super altare: oblatio est Domino, odor suavissimus victimae Domini.
on 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.
19 Tolles quoque arietem alterum, super cuius caput Aaron et filii eius ponent manus.
You must then take the other ram, and Aaron and his sons must lay their hands on its head.
20 Quem cum immolaveris, sumes de sanguine eius, et pones super extremum auriculae dextrae Aaron et filiorum eius, et super pollices manus eorum ac pedis dextri, fundesque sanguinem super altare per circuitum.
Then 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.
21 Cumque tuleris de sanguine qui est super altare, et de oleo unctionis, asperges Aaron et vestes eius, filios et vestimenta eorum. Consecratisque ipsis et vestibus,
You 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.
22 tolles adipem de ariete, et caudam et arvinam, quae operit vitalia, ac reticulum iecoris, et duos renes, atque adipem, qui super eos est, armumque dextrum, eo quod sit aries consecrationis:
You 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.
23 tortamque panis unius, crustulam conspersam oleo, laganum de canistro azymorum, quod positum est in conspectu Domini:
Take 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.
24 ponesque omnia super manus Aaron et filiorum eius, et sanctificabis eos elevans coram Domino.
You 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.
25 Suscipiesque universa de manibus eorum: et incendes super altare in holocaustum, odorem suavissimum in conspectu Domini, quia oblatio eius est.
You 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.
26 Sumes quoque pectusculum de ariete, quo initiatus est Aaron, sanctificabisque illud elevatum coram Domino, et cedet in partem tuam.
You 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.
27 Sanctificabisque et pectusculum consecratum, et armum quem de ariete separasti,
You 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.
28 quo initiatus est Aaron et filii eius, cedentque in partem Aaron et filiorum eius iure perpetuo a filiis Israel: quia primitiva sunt et initia de victimis eorum pacificis quae offerunt Domino.
This 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.
29 Vestem autem sanctam, qua utetur Aaron, habebunt filii eius post eum, ut ungantur in ea, et consecrantur manus eorum.
The 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.
30 Septem diebus utetur illa qui pontifex pro eo fuerit constitutus de filiis eius, et qui ingredietur tabernaculum testimonii ut ministret in Sanctuario.
The 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.
31 Arietem autem consecrationis tolles, et coques carnes eius in loco sancto:
You must take the ram for the installation of the priests to me and boil its meat in a holy place.
32 quibus vescetur Aaron et filii eius. Panes quoque, qui sunt in canistro, in vestibulo tabernaculi testimonii comedent,
Aaron 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.
33 ut sit placabile sacrificium, et sanctificentur offerentium manus. Alienigena non vescetur ex eis, quia sancti sunt.
They 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.
34 Quod si remanserit de carnibus consecratis, sive de panibus usque mane, combures reliquias igni: non comedentur, quia sanctificata sunt.
If 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.
35 Omnia, quae praecepi tibi, facies super Aaron et filiis eius. Septem diebus consecrabis manus eorum:
In 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.
36 et vitulum pro peccato offeres per singulos dies ad expiandum. Mundabisque altare cum immolaveris expiationis hostiam, et unges illud in sanctificationem.
Every 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.
37 Septem diebus expiabis altare, et sanctificabis, et erit Sanctum sanctorum. omnis, qui tetigerit illud, sanctificabitur.
For 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.
38 Hoc est quod facies in altari: Agnos anniculos duos per singulos dies iugiter,
You must regularly offer on the altar every day two lambs a year old.
39 unum agnum mane, et alterum vespere,
One lamb you must offer in the morning, and the other lamb you must offer about sundown.
40 decimam partem similae conspersae oleo tuso, quod habeat mensuram quartam partem hin, et vinum ad libandum eiusdem mensurae in agno uno.
With 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.
41 Alterum vero agnum offeres ad vesperam iuxta ritum matutinae oblationis, et iuxta ea quae diximus, in odorem suavitatis:
You 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.
42 sacrificium est Domino, oblatione perpetua in generationes vestras, ad ostium tabernaculi testimonii coram Domino, ubi constituam ut loquar ad te.
These 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.
43 Ibique praecipiam filiis Israel, et sanctificabitur altare in gloria mea.
That is where I will meet with the Israelites; the tent will be set apart for me by my glory.
44 Sanctificabo et tabernaculum testimonii cum altari, et Aaron cum filiis suis, ut sacerdotio fungantur mihi.
I 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.
45 Et habitabo in medio filiorum Israel, eroque eis Deus,
I will live among the Israelites and will be their God.
46 et scient quia ego Dominus Deus eorum, qui eduxi eos de Terra Aegypti, ut manerem inter illos, ego Dominus Deus ipsorum.
They 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.
