Leviticus 8:18-21
New English Translation
18 Then he presented the burnt offering ram and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram, 19 and he slaughtered it.[a] Moses then splashed the blood against the altar’s sides. 20 Then he[b] cut the ram into parts,[c] and Moses offered the head, the parts, and the suet up in smoke, 21 but the entrails and the legs he washed with water,[d] and Moses offered the whole ram up in smoke on the altar—it was a burnt offering for a soothing aroma, a gift to the Lord, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.[e]
