Exodus 29:1-9

1“Now this is what you are to do for them to consecrate them so that they may minister as my priests. Take a young bull and two rams without blemish;

2and bread made without yeast, and perforated cakes without yeast mixed with oil, and wafers without yeast spread with oil – you are to make them using fine wheat flour.

3You are to put them in one basket and present them in the basket, along with the bull and the two rams.

4“You are to present Aaron and his sons at the entrance of the tent of meeting. You are to wash them with water

5and take the garments and clothe Aaron with the tunic, the robe of the ephod, the ephod, and the breastpiece; you are to fasten the ephod on him by using the skillfully woven waistband.

6You are to put the turban on his head and put the holy diadem on the turban.

7You are to take the anointing oil and pour it on his head and anoint him.

8You are to present his sons and clothe them with tunics

9and wrap the sashes around Aaron and his sons and put headbands on them, and so the ministry of priesthood will belong to them by a perpetual ordinance. Thus you are to consecrate Aaron and his sons.
