Now the LORD spoke
to Moses
after
athe death
of the two
sons
of Aaron
, when they had approached
the presence
of the LORD
and died
.
"Tell your brother
Aaron
that he shall not enter
aat any
time
into the holy
place inside
the veil
, before
the 1mercy
seat
which
is on the ark
, or
he will die
; for bI will appear
in the cloud
over
the 1mercy
seat
.
"Aaron shall enter
the holy
place with this
: with a 1bull
for a asin
offering
and a ram
for a burnt
offering
.
"He shall put on the aholy
linen
tunic
, and the linen
undergarments
shall be next
to his 1body
, and he shall be girded
with the linen
sash
and attired
with the linen
turban
(these
are holy
garments
). Then he shall bbathe
his 1body
in water
and put
them on.
"He shall take from the congregation
of the sons
of Israel
atwo
male
goats
for a sin
offering
and one
ram
for a burnt
offering
.
"Then aAaron shall offer
the bull
for the sin
offering
which
is for himself, that he may make
atonement
for himself and for his household
.
"He shall take the two
goats
and present
them before
the LORD
at the doorway
of the tent
of meeting
.
"Aaron shall cast
lots
for the two
goats
, one
lot
for the LORD
and the other
lot
for the 1scapegoat
.
"Then Aaron shall offer
the goat
on which
the lot
for the LORD
fell
, and make
it a sin
offering
.
"But the goat on which
the lot
for the 1scapegoat
fell
shall be presented
alive
before
the LORD
, to make
aatonement
upon it, to send
it into the wilderness
as the 1scapegoat
.
"Then Aaron shall offer
the bull
of the sin
offering
awhich
is for himself and make
atonement
for himself and bfor his household
, and he shall slaughter
the bull
of the sin
offering
which
is for himself.
"He shall take a afirepan
full
of coals
of fire
from upon the altar
before
the LORD
and 1two handfuls
of finely
ground
bsweet
incense
, and bring
it inside
the veil
.
"He shall put the incense
on the fire
before
the LORD
, that the cloud
of incense
may cover
the 1 amercy
seat
that is on the ark of the testimony
, botherwise
he will die
.
"Moreover, ahe shall take some
of the blood
of the bull
and sprinkle
it bwith his finger
on the 1mercy
seat
on the east
side; also in front
of the 1mercy
seat
he shall sprinkle
some
of the blood
with his finger
seven
times
.
"Then he shall slaughter the goat
of the sin
offering
awhich
is for the people
, and bring
its blood
inside
the veil
and do
with its blood
as he did
with the blood
of the bull
, and sprinkle
it on the 1mercy
seat
and in front
of the 1mercy
seat
.
" aHe shall make atonement
for the holy
place, because
of the impurities
of the sons
of Israel
and because
of their transgressions
in regard to all
their sins
; and thus
he shall do
for the tent
of meeting
which abides
with them in the midst
of their impurities
.
"When he goes in to make
atonement
in the holy
place, no
one
shall be in the tent
of meeting
until
he comes
out, that he may make
atonement
for himself and for his household
and for all
the assembly
of Israel
.
"Then he shall go out to the altar
that is before
the LORD
and make
atonement
for it, and shall take
some
of the blood
of the bull
and of the blood
of the goat
and aput
it on the horns
of the altar
on all
sides
.
" aWith his finger he shall sprinkle
some
of the blood
on it seven
times
and cleanse
it, and from the impurities
of the sons
of Israel
consecrate
it.
"When he finishes atoning
for the holy
place and the tent
of meeting
and the altar
, he shall offer
the live
goat
.
"Then Aaron shall lay
both
of his hands
on the head
of the live
goat
, and aconfess
over
it all
the iniquities
of the sons
of Israel
and all
their transgressions
1in regard to all
their sins
; and he shall lay
them on the head
of the goat
and send
it away
into the wilderness
by the hand
of a man
who stands in readiness
.
"The goat shall bear
on itself all
their iniquities
to a solitary
land
; and he shall release
the goat
in the wilderness
.
"Then Aaron shall come
into the tent
of meeting
and take
off
athe linen
garments
which
he put
on when he went
into the holy
place, and shall leave
them there
.
" aHe shall bathe his 1body
with water
in a holy
place
and put
on bhis clothes
, and come
forth
and offer
his burnt
offering
and the burnt
offering
of the people
and make
atonement
for himself and for the people
.
"Then he shall offer up in smoke
the fat
of the sin
offering
on the altar
.
"The one who released the goat
as the 1scapegoat
ashall wash
his clothes
and bathe
his 2body
with water
; then afterward
he shall come
into the camp
.
"But the bull of the sin
offering
and the goat
of the sin
offering
, awhose
blood
was brought
in to make
atonement
in the holy
place, shall be taken
outside
the camp
, and they shall burn
their hides
, their flesh
, and their refuse
in the fire
.
"Then the aone who burns them shall wash
his clothes
and bathe
his body
with water
, then afterward
he shall come
into the camp
.
"This shall be a permanent statute
for you: ain the seventh
month
, on the tenth
day of the month
, you shall humble
your souls
and not bdo
any
work
, whether the native
, or the alien
who sojourns
among
you;
for it is on this day
that 1atonement
shall be made
for you to acleanse
you; you will be clean
from all
your sins
before
the LORD
.
"It is to be a sabbath of solemn
rest
for you, that you may ahumble
your souls
; it is a permanent
statute
.
"So the priest who
is anointed
and 1ordained
to serve
as priest
in his father's
place
shall make
atonement
: he shall thus put
on athe linen
garments
, the holy
garments
,
and make atonement
for the holy
sanctuary
, and he shall make
atonement
for the tent
of meeting
and for the altar
. He shall also make
atonement
for athe priests
and for all
the people
of the assembly
.
"Now you shall have this
as a apermanent
statute
, to bmake
atonement
for the sons
of Israel
for all
their sins
once
every year
." And just
as the LORD
had commanded
Moses
, so he did
.
