Exodus 29:10

Aaron

8 Present his sons as well and clothe them with tunics.

9 Wrap the sashes around Aaron and his sons and tie headbands on them. The priesthood shall be theirs by a permanent statute. In this way you are to ordain Aaron and his sons.

You are to present the bull at the front of the Tent of Meeting, and Aaron and his sons are to lay their hands on its head.

11 And you shall slaughter the bull before the LORD at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

12 Take some of the blood of the bull and put it on the horns of the altar with your finger; then pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
