Leviticus

Leviticus 8:9–12

⁹Moses also put the turban on Aaron’s head and set the gold plate, the holy diadem, on the front of the turban, as the LORD had commanded him.

¹⁰Next, Moses took the anointing oil and anointed the tabernacle and everything in it; and so he consecrated them. ¹¹He sprinkled some of the oil on the altar seven times, anointing the altar and all its utensils, and the basin with its stand, to consecrate them.

¹²He also poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron’s head and anointed him to consecrate him.
