| # Chapter 9
#### 1 | It happened on the eighth day, that Moses called Aaron and his sons, and the elders of Israel;
#### 2 | and he said to Aaron, Take a calf of the herd for a sin-offering, and a ram for a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer them before Yahweh.
#### 3 | To the children of Israel you shall speak, saying, Take a male 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 Yahweh; and a meal-offering mingled with oil: for today Yahweh appears to you.
#### 5 | They brought that which Moses commanded before the tent of meeting: and all the congregation drew near and stood before Yahweh.
#### 6 | Moses said, This is the thing which Yahweh commanded that you should do: and the glory of Yahweh shall appear to you.
#### 7 | Moses said to Aaron, Draw near to the altar, and offer your sin-offering, and your burnt offering, and make atonement for yourself, and for the people; and offer the offering of the people, and make atonement for them; as Yahweh commanded.
#### 8 | So Aaron drew near to the altar, and killed the calf of the sin-offering, which was for himself.
#### 9 | The sons of Aaron presented the blood to him; and he dipped his finger in the blood, and put it on 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 cover from the liver of the sin-offering, he burnt on the altar; as Yahweh commanded Moses.
#### 11 | The flesh and the skin he burnt with fire outside of the camp.
#### 12 | He killed the burnt offering; and Aaron's sons delivered to him the blood, and he sprinkled it on the altar round about.
#### 13 | They delivered the burnt- offering to him, piece by piece, and the head: and he burnt them on the altar.
#### 14 | He washed the inwards and the legs, and burnt them on the burnt offering on the altar.
#### 15 | He presented the people's offering, and took the goat of the sin-offering which was for the people, and killed it, and offered it for sin, as the first.
#### 16 | He presented the burnt-offering, and offered it according to the ordinance.
#### 17 | He presented the meal-offering, and filled his hand therefrom, and burnt it on the altar, besides the burnt offering of the morning.
#### 18 | He killed also the ox and the ram, the sacrifice of peace-offerings, which was for the people: and Aaron's sons delivered to him the blood, which he sprinkled on the altar round about,
#### 19 | and the fat of the ox and of the ram, the fat tail, and that which covers [the inwards], and the kidneys, and the cover of the liver:
#### 20 | and they put the fat on the breasts, and he burnt the fat on the altar:
#### 21 | and the breasts and the right thigh Aaron waved for a wave-offering before Yahweh; as Moses commanded.
#### 22 | 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 | Moses and Aaron went into the tent of meeting, and came out, and blessed the people: and the glory of Yahweh appeared to all the people.
#### 24 | There came forth fire from before Yahweh, and consumed on the altar the burnt offering and the fat: and when all the people saw it, they shouted, and fell on their faces.
