3 and gather together all the assembly at the door of the tabernacle.3 And thou shalt gather together all the congregation to the door of the tabernacle.
4 And Moses did as the Lord had commanded. And when all the crowd was gathered together before the entrance of the tabernacle,4 And Moses did as the Lord had commanded. And all the multitude being gathered together before the door of the tabernacle,
5 he said: “This is the word that the Lord has ordered to be done.”5 He said: This is the word that the Lord hath commanded to be done.
6 And immediately, he brought forward Aaron and his sons. And when he had washed them,6 And immediately he offered Aaron and his sons: and when he had washed them,
7 he vested the high priest with the linen undergarment, wrapped him with the wide belt, and clothed him with the hyacinth tunic, and over it he imposed the ephod.7 He vested the high priest with the strait linen garment, girding him with the girdle, and putting on him the violet tunick, and over it he put the ephod,

And when it was expiated and sanctified, he poured out the remainder of the blood at its base.15 He immolated it: and took the blood, and dipping his finger in it, he touched the horns of the altar round about. Which being expiated, and sanctified, he poured the rest of the blood at the bottom thereof.
16 Yet truly, the fat which was on the vital organs, and the mesh of the liver, and the two little kidneys with their fat, he burned upon the altar.16 But the fat that was upon the entrails, and the caul of the liver, and the two little kidneys, with their fat, he burnt upon the altar:

19 he immolated it, and he poured out its blood around the altar.19 He immolated it, and poured the blood thereof round about upon the altar.
20 And cutting the ram into pieces, he burned its head, and the limbs, and the fat in the fire,20 And cutting the ram into pieces, the head thereof, and the joints, and the fat he burnt in the fire,

26 Then, taking bread without leaven from the basket of unleavened bread, which was before the Lord, and a cake sprinkled with oil, and a wafer, he placed them upon the fat and the right shoulder,26 And taking out of the basket; of unleavened bread, which was before the Lord, a loaf without leaven, and a cake tempered with oil and a wafer, he put them upon the fat, and the right shoulder,
27 delivering all these to Aaron and his sons. And when they had lifted them up in the sight of the Lord,27 Delivering all to Aaron, and to his sons: wile having lifted them up before the Lord,
28 he received them again from their hands, and he burned them upon the altar of holocaust, because it was an oblation of consecration, as a sweet odor of sacrifice to the Lord.28 He took them again from their hands, and burnt them upon the altar of holocaust, because it was the oblation of consecration, for a sweet odour of sacrifice to the Lord.

31 And when he had sanctified them with their vestments, he instructed them, saying: “Cook the flesh before the entrance of the tabernacle, and eat it there. Likewise, eat the loaves of consecration, which have been placed in the basket, just as the Lord instructed me, saying: ‘Aaron and his sons shall eat them.’31 And when he had sanctified them in their vestments, he commanded them, saying: Boil the flesh before the door of the tabernacle, and there eat it. Eat ye also the loaves of consecration, that are laid in the basket, as the Lord commanded me, saying: Aaron and his sons shall eat them:
32 Then whatever will remain of the flesh and the loaves shall be consumed with fire.32 And whatsoever shall be left of the flesh and the leaves, shall be consumed with fire.
33 Also, you shall not exit from the door of the tabernacle for seven days, until the day on which the time of your consecration shall be completed. For in seven days the consecration is finished,33 And you shall not go out of the door of the tabernacle for seven days, until the day wherein the time of your consecration shall be expired. For in seven days the consecration is finished:
34 even as it has begun at this present time, so that the rite of the sacrifice might be accomplished.34 As at this present it hath been done, that the rite of the sacrifice might be accomplished.
35 Day and night you shall remain in the tabernacle, observing the watches of the Lord, otherwise you shall die. For so it has been commanded to me.”35 Day and night shall you remain in the tabernacle observing the watches of the Lord, lest you die: for so it hath been commanded me.
