16
1 And the Lord spake with Mosheh after the two sons of Aharon were dead, who offered the strange fire before the Lord, and died;
2 And the Lord said unto Mosheh, Speak with Aharon thy brother, that he may not enter at any time into the Holy Place within the veil before the mercy seat which is upon the ark, that he die not; for in the cloud will I reveal Myself over the mercy seat.
3 With this shall Aharon enter the holy place: With a young bullock for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering.
4 With the holy linen vesture shall he be clothed, and linen drawers shall be upon his flesh, and with the linen girdle shall he be bound, and the linen mitre shall be upon his head: these are holy garments; and he shall wash his flesh in water, and then put them on.
5 And of the congregation of the sons of Israel let him take two kids of the goats for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering.
6 And Aharon shall offer the bullock of the sin offering for himself, and make atonement for himself and for the men of his house.
7 And he shall take the two goats, and make them to stand before the Lord, at the door of the tabernacle of ordinance.
8 And Aharon shall put lots upon the two goats; one lot for the Name of the Lord, and one lot for Azazel.
9 And Aharon shall offer the goat whose lot came up for the Name of the Lord, and make him a sin offering;
10 And the goat whose lot came up for Azazel he shall make to stand alive before the Lord, to make an atonement upon him, and to send him away to Azazel, to the desert.
11 And Aharon shall offer the bullock for his own sin, and make atonement for himself and for the men of his house and he shall kill the bullock for the sin offering which is for himself.
12 And he shall take a censer full of coals of fire from off the altar before the Lord, and his handful of sweet incense beaten small, and carry (them) within the veil.
13 And he shall put the sweet incense upon the fire before the Lord, and the cloud of incense will envelope the mercy seat which is over the testimony, that he may not die.
14 And he shall take of the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it with his finger upon the face of the mercy seat eastward, and before the mercy seat he shall sprinkle seven times of the blood with his finger.
15 And be shall kill the goat for the sin offering of the people, and enter, with its blood, within the veil, and do with his blood as he had done with the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it upon the mercy seat and before the mercy seat.
16 And he shall (thus) make atonement for the holy place on account of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and the rebellion of all their sin. And so shall he do for the tabernacle of ordinance which remaineth with them in the midst of their uncleanness.
17 But no man shall be in the tabernacle of ordinance (at the time of) his entering to make atonement in the holy place until his coming out: and he shall atone for himself, and for the men of his house, and for all the congregation of Israel.
18 And he shall go forth to the altar which is before the Lord, and make atonement for it; and take of the blood of the bullock and of the goat’s blood, and put upon the horns of the altar round about;
19 And of the blood he shall sprinkle upon it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it and sanctify it from the uncleanness of the children of Israel.
20 And when he hath completed to atone for the holy place, and for the tabernacle of ordinance, and for the altar, then shall he bring the living goat.
21 And Aharon shall lay his two hands upon the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their rebellions, and all their sins, and put them upon the head of the goat, and send him away, by the hand of an appointed man, to go into the desert.
22 And the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities into a land not inhabited; and he shall send the goat away into the desert.
23 And Aharon shall go into the tabernacle of ordinance, and put off the linen robes which he wore on going into the Holy Place, and shall lay them there aside.
24 And he shall wash his flesh with water in the Holy Place, and put on his garments, and come forth to offer his burnt sacrifice, and the burnt sacrifice of the people, and make atonement for himself and for the people.
25 And the fat of the sin offering he shall burn at the altar.
26 But he who led away the goat unto Azazel shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterwards go into the camp.
27 And the bullock of the sin offering whose blood was carried in to make atonement in the Holy Place, he shall take forth out of the camp, and they shall burn their skins and their flesh and their food with fire.
28 And he who burned them must wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh with water, and may then enter into the camp.
29 And this shall be to you for an everlasting statute: in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall afflict (humble) your souls, and do no work, whether the native-born or the stranger that dwelleth among you.
30 For on that day he shall make atonement for you, to cleanse you from all your sins, that you may be cleansed from all your sins before the Lord.
31 A Sabbath it shall be to you, and you shall humble your souls. It is an everlasting statute.
32 And the priest whom he shall anoint, and who shall offer his oblation, to minister instead of his father, shall make the atonement, and dress himself with the vestments of fine linen, even the consecrated vestments.
33 And he shall make atonement for the Holy of Holies, and for the tabernacle of ordinance and for the altar he shall atone, and for all the people of the congregation shall he atone.
34 And this shall be to you an everlasting statute for the expiation of all the children of Israel from all their sins once in the year. And he did as the Lord commanded Mosheh.
