Ver. 22-25. And he brought the other ram, the ram of consecration,

Leviticus 8:22 In-Context

20 And the ram he cut up into its pieces; and Moses burned the head, and the pieces, and the fat;
21 and the inwards and the legs he washed in water; and Moses burned the whole ram on the altar: it was a burnt-offering for a sweet odour, it was an offering by fire to Jehovah; as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
22 And he presented the second ram, the ram of consecration; and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram;
23 and one slaughtered [it]; and Moses took of its blood, and put [it] on the tip of Aaron's right ear, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the great toe of his right foot;
24 and he brought Aaron's sons near, and Moses put of the blood on the tip of their right ear, and on the thumb of their right hand, and on the great toe of their right foot; and Moses sprinkled the blood upon the altar round about.
