| # Chapter 9
#### 1 | And it came to pass on the eighth day, that Moses called Aaron and his sons, and the elders of Israel;
#### 2 | and he said unto Aaron, Take thee a calf of the herd for a sin-offering, and a ram for a burnt-offering, without blemish, and offer them before Jehovah.
#### 3 | And unto the children of Israel thou shalt speak, saying, Take ye a he-goat for a sin-offering; and a calf and a lamb, both a year old, without blemish, for a burnt-offering;
#### 4 | and an ox and a ram for peace-offerings, to sacrifice before Jehovah; and a meal-offering mingled with oil: for to-day Jehovah appeareth unto you.
#### 5 | And they brought that which Moses commanded before the tent of meeting: and all the congregation drew near and stood before Jehovah.
#### 6 | And Moses said, This is the thing which Jehovah commanded that ye should do: and the glory of Jehovah shall appear unto you.
#### 7 | And Moses said unto Aaron, Draw near unto the altar, and offer thy sin-offering, and thy burnt-offering, and make atonement for thyself, and for the people; and offer the oblation of the people, and make atonement for them; as Jehovah commanded.
#### 8 | So Aaron drew near unto the altar, and slew the calf of the sin-offering, which was for himself.
#### 9 | And the sons of Aaron presented the blood unto him; and he dipped his finger in the blood, and put it upon the horns of the altar, and poured out the blood at the base of the altar:
#### 10 | but the fat, and the kidneys, and the caul from the liver of the sin-offering, he burnt upon the altar; as Jehovah commanded Moses.
#### 11 | And the flesh and the skin he burnt with fire without the camp.
#### 12 | And he slew the burnt-offering; and Aaron's sons delivered unto him the blood, and he sprinkled it upon the altar round about.
#### 13 | And they delivered the burnt-offering unto him, piece by piece, and the head: and he burnt them upon the altar.
#### 14 | And he washed the inwards and the legs, and burnt them upon the burnt-offering on the altar.
#### 15 | And he presented the people's oblation, and took the goat of the sin-offering which was for the people, and slew it, and offered it for sin, as the first.
#### 16 | And he presented the burnt-offering, and offered it according to the ordinance.
#### 17 | And he presented the meal-offering, and filled his hand therefrom, and burnt it upon the altar, besides the burnt-offering of the morning.
#### 18 | He slew also the ox and the ram, the sacrifice of peace-offerings, which was for the people: and Aaron's sons delivered unto him the blood, which he sprinkled upon the altar round about,
#### 19 | and the fat of the ox and of the ram, the fat tail, and that which covereth [the inwards], and the kidneys, and the caul of the liver:
#### 20 | and they put the fat upon the breasts, and he burnt the fat upon the altar:
#### 21 | and the breasts and the right thigh Aaron waved for a wave-offering before Jehovah; as Moses commanded.
#### 22 | And Aaron lifted up his hands toward the people, and blessed them; and he came down from offering the sin-offering, and the burnt-offering, and the peace-offerings.
#### 23 | And Moses and Aaron went into the tent of meeting, and came out, and blessed the people: and the glory of Jehovah appeared unto all the people.
#### 24 | And there came forth fire from before Jehovah, and consumed upon the altar the burnt-offering and the fat: and when all the people saw it, they shouted, and fell on their faces.
