⁹ For they are gone up to Assyria, a wild ass alone by himself: Ephraim hath hired lovers.

⁸ Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

⁹ "Command Aaron and his sons, saying, 'This is the law of the burnt offering: the burnt offering shall be on the hearth on the altar all night until the morning; and the fire of the altar shall be kept burning on it.

¹⁰ The priest shall put on his linen garment, and he shall put on his linen breeches upon his body; and he shall remove the ashes from where the fire has consumed the burnt offering on the altar, and he shall put them beside the altar.

¹¹ He shall take off his garments, and put on other garments, and carry the ashes outside the camp to a clean place.

¹² The fire on the altar shall be kept burning on it, it shall not go out; and the priest shall burn wood on it every morning: and he shall lay the burnt offering in order upon it, and shall burn on it the fat of the peace offerings.
