Leviticus 8:16

Moses

14 Moses then brought the bull near for the sin offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.

15 Moses slaughtered the bull, took some of the blood, and applied it with his finger to all four horns of the altar, purifying the altar. He poured out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar and consecrated it so that atonement could be made on it.

Moses also took all the fat that was on the entrails, the lobe of the liver, and both kidneys and their fat, and burned it all on the altar.

17 But the bull with its hide, flesh, and dung he burned outside the camp, as the LORD had commanded him.

18 Then Moses presented the ram for the burnt offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.

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.
