Liber Leviticus, 8

1. Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen dicens:

1. The LORD said to Moses,

2. “Tolle Aaron cum filiis suis, vestes eorum et unctionis oleum, vitulum pro peccato, duos arietes, canistrum cum azymis;

2. "Take 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;

3. et congregabis omnem coetum ad ostium tabernaculi conventus”.

3. and assemble all the congregation at the door of the tent of meeting."

4. Fecit Moyses, ut Dominus imperarat; congregatoque omni coetu ante fores tabernaculi conventus,

4. And Moses did as the LORD commanded him; and the congregation was assembled at the door of the tent of meeting.

5. ait: “Iste est sermo, quem iussit Dominus fieri”.

5. And Moses said to the congregation, "This is the thing which the LORD has commanded to be done."

6. Statimque applicavit Aaron et filios eius. Cumque lavisset eos aqua,

6. And Moses brought Aaron and his sons, and washed them with water.

7. vestivit pontificem subucula linea accingens eum balteo et induens tunica hyacinthina et desuper ephod imposuit,

7. And he put on him the coat, and girded him with the girdle, and clothed him with the robe, and put the ephod upon him, and girded him with the skilfully woven band of the ephod, binding it to him therewith.

8. quod astrinxit cingulo ephod firmiter; et imposuit ei pectorale, in quo dedit Urim et Tummim.

8. And he placed the breastpiece on him, and in the breastpiece he put the Urim and the Thummim.

9. Cidari quoque texit caput et super eam contra frontem posuit laminam auream, diadema sanctum, sicut praeceperat Dominus Moysi.

9. And he set the turban upon his head, and on the turban, in front, he set the golden plate, the holy crown, as the LORD commanded Moses.

10. Tulit et unctionis oleum, quo levit habitaculum cum omni supellectili sua et sanctificavit ea.

10. Then Moses took the anointing oil, and anointed the tabernacle and all that was in it, and consecrated them.

11. Cumque de eo aspersisset altare septem vicibus, unxit illud et omnia vasa eius labrumque cum basi sua sanctificavit oleo.

11. And he sprinkled some of it on the altar seven times, and anointed the altar and all its utensils, and the laver and its base, to consecrate them.

12. Quod fundens super caput Aaron, unxit eum et consecravit;

12. And he poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron's head, and anointed him, to consecrate him.

13. filios quoque eius applicatos vestivit subuculis lineis et cinxit balteo imposuitque mitras, ut iusserat Dominus Moysi.

13. And Moses brought Aaron's sons, and clothed them with coats, and girded them with girdles, and bound caps on them, as the LORD commanded Moses.

14. Adduxit et vitulum pro peccato; cumque super caput eius posuissent Aaron et filii eius manus suas,

14. Then he brought the bull of the sin offering; and Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the bull of the sin offering.

15. immolavit eum; et hauriens Moyses sanguinem tincto digito tetigit cornua altaris per gyrum et mundavit illud; fuditque reliquum sanguinem ad fundamenta eius et sanctificavit illud expiando.

15. And Moses killed it, and took the blood, and with his finger put it on the horns of the altar round about, and purified the altar, and poured out the blood at the base of the altar, and consecrated it, to make atonement for it.

16. Adipem autem, qui erat super vitalia, et reticulum iecoris duosque renunculos cum arvinulis suis adolevit super altare;

16. And he took all the fat that was on the entrails, and the appendage of the liver, and the two kidneys with their fat, and Moses burned them on the altar.

17. vitulum cum pelle, carnibus et fimo cremans extra castra, sicut praeceperat Dominus Moysi.

17. But the bull, and its skin, and its flesh, and its dung, he burned with fire outside the camp, as the LORD commanded Moses.

18. Attulit et arietem in holocaustum, super cuius caput cum imposuissent Aaron et filii eius manus suas,

18. Then he presented the ram of the burnt offering; and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram.

19. immolavit eum et fudit sanguinem eius per altaris circuitum.

19. And Moses killed it, and threw the blood upon the altar round about.

20. Ipsumque arietem in frusta concidens, caput eius et artus et adipem adolevit igni;

20. And when the ram was cut into pieces, Moses burned the head and the pieces and the fat.

21. lotis prius intestinis et pedibus, totumque simul arietem adolevit super altare, eo quod esset holocaustum suavissimi odoris, incensum Domino, sicut praeceperat Dominus Moysi.

21. And when the entrails and the legs were washed with water, Moses burned the whole ram on the altar, as a burnt offering, a pleasing odor, an offering by fire to the LORD, as the LORD commanded Moses.

22. Attulit et arietem secundum in consecrationem sacerdotum; posueruntque super caput illius Aaron et filii eius manus suas.

22. Then he presented the other ram, the ram of ordination; and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram.

23. Quem cum immolasset Moyses, sumens de sanguine tetigit extremum auriculae dextrae Aaron et pollicem manus eius dextrae, similiter et pedis.

23. And Moses killed it, and took some of its blood and put it on the tip of Aaron's right ear and on the thumb of his right hand and on the great toe of his right foot.

24. Applicavit et filios Aaron; cumque de sanguine arietis immolati tetigisset extremum auriculae singulorum dextrae et pollices manus ac pedis dextri, reliquum fudit super altare per circuitum.

24. And Aaron's sons were brought, and Moses put some of the blood on the tips of their right ears and on the thumbs of their right hands and on the great toes of their right feet; and Moses threw the blood upon the altar round about.

25. Tulitque adipem et caudam omnemque pinguedinem, quae operit intestina reticulumque iecoris, et duos renes cum adipibus suis et armo dextro.

25. Then he took the fat, and the fat tail, and all the fat that was on the entrails, and the appendage of the liver, and the two kidneys with their fat, and the right thigh;

26. Tollens autem de canistro azymorum, quod erat coram Domino, panem absque fermento et collyridam conspersam oleo laganumque posuit super adipes et armum dextrum,

26. and out of the basket of unleavened bread which was before the LORD he took one unleavened cake, and one cake of bread with oil, and one wafer, and placed them on the fat and on the right thigh;

27. tradens simul omnia super manus Aaron et filiorum eius. Qui, postquam levaverunt ea coram Domino,

27. and he put all these in the hands of Aaron and in the hands of his sons, and waved them as a wave offering before the LORD.

28. rursum suscepta de manibus eorum adolevit in altari super holocausto, eo quod illa essent consecrationis oblatio, in odorem suavitatis: incensum erat Domino.

28. Then Moses took them from their hands, and burned them on the altar with the burnt offering, as an ordination offering, a pleasing odor, an offering by fire to the LORD.

29. Tulit et pectusculum elevans illud coram Domino de ariete consecrationis in partem suam, sicut praeceperat Dominus Moysi.

29. And Moses took the breast, and waved it for a wave offering before the LORD; it was Moses' portion of the ram of ordination, as the LORD commanded Moses.

30. Assumensque de unguento et sanguine, qui erat in altari, aspersit super Aaron et vestimenta eius et super filios illius ac vestes eorum.

30. Then Moses took some of the anointing oil and of the blood which was on the altar, and sprinkled it upon Aaron and his garments, and also upon his sons and his sons' garments; so he consecrated Aaron and his garments, and his sons and his sons' garments with him.

31. Cumque sanctificasset eos in vestitu suo, praecepit eis dicens: “Coquite carnes ante fores tabernaculi et ibi comedite eas; panes quoque consecrationis edite, qui positi sunt in canistro, sicut mihi praeceptum est: "Aaron et filii eius comedent eos;

31. And Moses said to Aaron and his sons, "Boil the flesh at the door of the tent of meeting, and there eat it and the bread that is in the basket of ordination offerings, as I commanded, saying, `Aaron and his sons shall eat it';

32. quidquid autem reliquum fuerit de carne et panibus, ignis absumet".

32. and what remains of the flesh and the bread you shall burn with fire.

33. De ostio quoque tabernaculi conventus non exibitis septem diebus usque ad diem, quo complebitur tempus consecrationis vestrae; septem enim diebus finitur consecratio.

33. And you shall not go out from the door of the tent of meeting for seven days, until the days of your ordination are completed, for it will take seven days to ordain you.

34. Sicut et impraesentiarum factum est, praecepit Dominus, ut fieret in expiationem eorum.

34. As has been done today, the LORD has commanded to be done to make atonement for you.

35. Die ac nocte manebitis in ostio tabernaculi conventus observantes observationem Domini, ne moriamini: sic enim mihi praeceptum est”.

35. At the door of the tent of meeting you shall remain day and night for seven days, performing what the LORD has charged, lest you die; for so I am commanded."

36. Feceruntque Aaron et filii eius cuncta, quae locutus est Dominus per manum Moysi.

36. And Aaron and his sons did all the things which the LORD commanded by Moses.
