5. he said, “We are here to follow the Lord's instructions.”
6. After Moses told Aaron and his sons to step forward, he made them wash themselves.
7. He put the priestly shirt and robe on Aaron and wrapped the sash around his waist. Then he put the sacred apron on Aaron and fastened it with the finely woven belt.
8. Next, he put on Aaron the sacred breastpiece that was used in learning what the Lord wanted his people to do.
9. He placed the turban on Aaron's head, and on the front of the turban was the narrow strip of thin gold as a sign of his dedication to the Lord.
20-21. Moses had the animal cut up, and he washed its insides and hind legs. Then he laid the head, the fat, and the rest of the ram on the altar and sent them up in smoke with a smell that pleased the Lord. All this was done just as the Lord had commanded.
22. Moses led out the ram for the ceremony of ordination. Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head,
23. and it was killed. Moses smeared some of its blood on Aaron's right ear lobe, some on his right thumb, and some on the big toe of his right foot.
24. Moses did the same thing for Aaron's sons, before splattering the rest of the blood against the four sides of the altar.
25. He took the animal's fat tail, the fat on its insides, and the lower part of the liver and the two kidneys with their fat, and the right hind leg.

27. Moses placed the bread on top of the meat and gave it all to Aaron and his sons, who lifted it up to show that it was dedicated to the Lord.
