Exodus 29:13-22

13And you shall take all the fat that covers the entrails, and the long lobe of the liver, and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them, and burn them on the altar.

14But the flesh of the bull and its skin and its dung you shall burn with fire outside the camp; it is a sin offering.

15"Then you shall take one of the rams, and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on the head of the ram,

16and you shall kill the ram and shall take its blood and throw it against the sides of the altar.

17Then you shall cut the ram into pieces, and wash its entrails and its legs, and put them with its pieces and its head,

18and burn the whole ram on the altar. It is a burnt offering to the Lord. It is a pleasing aroma, a food offering to the Lord.

19"You shall take the other ram, and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on the head of the ram,

20and you shall kill the ram and take part of its blood and put it on the tip of the right ear of Aaron and on the tips of the right ears of his sons, and on the thumbs of their right hands and on the great toes of their right feet, and throw the rest of the blood against the sides of the altar.

21Then you shall take part of the blood that is on the altar, and of the anointing oil, and sprinkle it on Aaron and his garments, and on his sons and his sons' garments with him. He and his garments shall be holy, and his sons and his sons' garments with him.

22"You shall also take the fat from the ram and the fat tail and the fat that covers the entrails, and the long lobe of the liver and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them, and the right thigh (for it is a ram of ordination),
