And Moses brought Aaron’s sons, and put coats upon them, and girded them with girdles, and put bonnets upon them; as the LORD commanded Moses.
Then Moses brought Aaron's sons forward and dressed them in special robes. He put sashes around their waists and placed caps on their heads, doing exactly what the LORD had told Moses to do.
Moses is carefully following God's instructions to dress Aaron's sons in their special priestly clothing for their ordination ceremony.
