Leviticus 8:14-24

14 obtulit et vitulum pro peccato cumque super caput eius posuissent Aaron et filii eius manus suas
15 immolavit eum hauriens sanguinem et tincto digito tetigit cornua altaris per gyrum quo expiato et sanctificato fudit reliquum sanguinem ad fundamenta eius
16 adipem autem qui erat super vitalia et reticulum iecoris duosque renunculos cum arvinulis suis adolevit super altare
17 vitulum cum pelle carnibus et fimo cremans extra castra sicut praeceperat Dominus
18 obtulit et arietem in holocaustum super cuius caput cum inposuissent Aaron et filii eius manus suas
19 immolavit eum et fudit sanguinem eius per altaris circuitum
20 ipsumque arietem in frusta concidens caput eius et artus et adipem adolevit igni
21 lotis prius intestinis et pedibus totumque simul arietem incendit super altare eo quod esset holocaustum suavissimi odoris Domino sicut praeceperat ei
22 obtulit et arietem secundum in consecrationem sacerdotum posueruntque super caput illius Aaron et filii eius manus suas
23 quem cum immolasset Moses sumens de sanguine tetigit extremum auriculae dextrae Aaron et pollicem manus eius dextrae similiter et pedis
24 obtulit et filios Aaron cumque de sanguine arietis immolati tetigisset extremum auriculae singulorum dextrae et pollices manus ac pedis dextri reliquum fudit super altare per circuitum
