29And the holy garments that are Aaron’s shall belong to his sons after him, for anointing in them and for ordaining them in them.

30For seven days the priest from among his sons who succeeds him shall put them on, when he enters the tent of meeting to minister in the holy place.

31And you shall take the ram of ordination and boil its flesh in a holy place.

32Aaron and his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram and the bread that is in the basket at the entrance of the tent of meeting.

33They shall eat those things by which atonement was made, to ordain them and to consecrate them; but an outsider shall not eat them, because they are holy.

34And if any of the flesh of the ordination offering or any of the bread is left until the morning, then you shall burn what is left with fire. It shall not be eaten, because it is holy.

35And you shall do thus for Aaron and for his sons, according to all that I have commanded you. Seven days you shall ordain them.

36And each day you shall offer a bull as a sin offering for atonement, and you shall purify the altar when you make atonement for it, and you shall anoint it to consecrate it.

37For seven days you shall make atonement for the altar and consecrate it, and the altar shall be most holy. Whatever touches the altar shall become holy.

38This is what you shall offer on the altar: two one-year-old lambs each day continually.

39You shall offer the one lamb in the morning, and the second lamb you shall offer between the evenings.

40and a tenth of fine flour mixed with a quarter of a hin of beaten oil, and a drink offering of a quarter of a hin of wine, for the one lamb.

41And you shall offer the second lamb at twilight; you shall offer for it its grain offering and its drink offering, as in the morning, as a pleasing aroma, a food offering to Yahweh.

42It shall be a regular burnt offering throughout your generations at the entrance of the tent of meeting before Yahweh, where I will meet with you, to speak to you there.

43There I will meet with the sons of Israel, and it will be sanctified by my glory.

44And I will consecrate the tent of meeting and the altar; and I will consecrate Aaron and his sons to serve me as priests.

45And I will dwell among the sons of Israel, and I will be their God.

46And they shall know that I am Yahweh their God, who brought them out from the land of Egypt so that I might dwell among them. I am Yahweh their God.
