Leviticus 9:5-15

5 tulerunt ergo cuncta quae iusserat Moses ad ostium tabernaculi ubi cum omnis staret multitudo

6 ait Moses iste est sermo quem praecepit Dominus facite et apparebit vobis gloria eius

7 dixit et ad Aaron accede ad altare et immola pro peccato tuo offer holocaustum et deprecare pro te et pro populo cumque mactaveris hostiam populi ora pro eo sicut praecepit Dominus

8 statimque Aaron accedens ad altare immolavit vitulum pro peccato suo

9 cuius sanguinem obtulerunt ei filii sui in quo tinguens digitum tetigit cornua altaris et fudit residuum ad basim eius

10 adipemque et renunculos ac reticulum iecoris quae sunt pro peccato adolevit super altare sicut praeceperat Dominus Mosi

11 carnes vero et pellem eius extra castra conbusit igni

12 immolavit et holocausti victimam obtuleruntque ei filii sui sanguinem eius quem fudit per altaris circuitum

13 ipsam etiam hostiam in frusta concisam cum capite et membris singulis obtulerunt quae omnia super altare cremavit igni

14 lotis prius aqua intestinis et pedibus

15 et pro peccato populi offerens mactavit hircum expiatoque altari
