Doxology

^24 (A)Now to him who is able ^(B)to keep you from stumbling and ^(C)to present you ^(D)blameless before the presence of his glory with great joy,

²⁶ that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by ^(A)the washing of water ^(B)with the word, ²⁷ so ^(C)that he might present the church to himself in splendor, ^(D)without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish.^[a]

²¹ And ^(A)the Levites purified themselves from sin and washed their clothes, and ^(B)Aaron offered them as a wave offering before the Lord, and Aaron made atonement for them to cleanse them.

⁶ “Take the Levites from among the people of Israel and cleanse them. ⁷ Thus you shall do to them to cleanse them: sprinkle the ^(A)water of purification upon them, and ^(B)let them go with a razor over all their body, and wash their clothes and cleanse themselves. ⁸ Then let them take a bull from the herd and ^(C)its grain offering of fine flour mixed with oil, ^(D)and you shall take another bull from the herd for a sin offering. ^9 (E)And you shall bring the Levites before the tent of meeting ^(F)and assemble the whole congregation of the people of Israel. ¹⁰ When you bring the Levites before the Lord, the people of Israel ^(G)shall lay their hands on the Levites, ¹¹ and Aaron shall offer the Levites before the Lord as a wave offering from the people of Israel, that they may do the service of the Lord.

³ And assemble all the congregation at the entrance of the tent of meeting.”

Consecration of the Priests

29 “Now this is what you shall do to them to consecrate them, that they may serve me as priests. ^(A)Take one bull of the herd and two rams without blemish, ^2 (B)and unleavened bread, unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers smeared with oil. You shall make them of fine wheat flour. ³ You shall put them in one basket and bring them in the basket, and bring the bull and the two rams. ⁴ You shall bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance of the tent of meeting and ^(C)wash them with water.
