They also made the tunics, woven of fine linen, for Aaron and his sons,

They made the rosette of the holy diadem of pure gold, and wrote on it an inscription, like the engraving of a signet, "Holy to the Lord ."

Then they brought the tabernacle to Moses, the tent and all its utensils, its hooks, its frames, its bars, its pillars, and its bases;

and anoint them, as you anointed their father, that they may serve me as priests: and their anointing shall admit them to a perpetual priesthood throughout all generations to come.

When they went into the tent of meeting, and when they approached the altar, they washed; as the Lord had commanded Moses.

If the whole congregation of Israel errs unintentionally and the matter escapes the notice of the assembly, and they do any one of the things that by the Lord 's commandments ought not to be done and incur guilt;

when the sin that they have committed becomes known, the assembly shall offer a bull of the herd for a sin offering and bring it before the tent of meeting.

He shall do with the bull just as is done with the bull of sin offering; he shall do the same with this. The priest shall make atonement for them, and they shall be forgiven.

They shall take from it a handful of the choice flour and oil of the grain offering, with all the frankincense that is on the offering, and they shall turn its memorial portion into smoke on the altar as a pleasing odor to the Lord .

Aaron and his sons shall eat what is left of it; it shall be eaten as unleavened cakes in a holy place; in the court of the tent of meeting they shall eat it.

at the spot where the burnt offering is slaughtered, they shall slaughter the guilt offering, and its blood shall be dashed against all sides of the altar.

This is the portion allotted to Aaron and to his sons from the offerings made by fire to the Lord , once they have been brought forward to serve the Lord as priests;

They brought what Moses commanded to the front of the tent of meeting; and the whole congregation drew near and stood before the Lord .

And they brought him the burnt offering piece by piece, and the head, which he turned into smoke on the altar.

They first laid the fat on the breasts, and the fat was turned into smoke on the altar;

Fire came out from the Lord and consumed the burnt offering and the fat on the altar; and when all the people saw it, they shouted and fell on their faces.

Now Aaron's sons, Nadab and Abihu, each took his censer, put fire in it, and laid incense on it; and they offered unholy fire before the Lord , such as he had not commanded them.

And fire came out from the presence of the Lord and consumed them, and they died before the Lord .

They came forward and carried them by their tunics out of the camp, as Moses had ordered.

You shall not go outside the entrance of the tent of meeting, or you will die; for the anointing oil of the Lord is on you." And they did as Moses had ordered.
