Original text and translations

Latin text Sanctificavit Moyses altare Domino, offerens super illud holocausta et immolans victimas; fecit sacrificium vespertinum in odorem suavitatis Domino Deo in conspectu filiorum Israel.

English translation Moses consecrated an altar to the Lord, and offered burnt-offerings on it, and sacrificial victims. He made a sweet-smelling evening sacrifice to the Lord God in the sight of the children of Israel.
