Leviticus 16 And the Lord spoke to Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron: when they brought strange fire before the Lord, and were dead,

Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ And the Lord spoke to Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron: when they brought strange fire before the Lord, and were dead, ² the Lord said to Moses, Speak to Aaron thy brother, and let him not come at all times into the sanctuary, within the veil, into the presence of the propitiatory, which is on the ark of the testimony; that he may not die. For in a cloud I will appear on the propitiatory. ³ In this manner Aaron shall come into that holy place. With a young bull from the herd for a sin offering [he shall bring] a ram for a whole burnt offering. ⁴ And he shall put on a holy linen vesture, and shall have linen drawers on his flesh, and shall be girded with a linen girdle, and shall put on a linen tiara. These are holy garments, therefore he shall wash his whole body with water, and put them on. ⁵ And he shall take, from the congregation of the children of Israel, two he goats for a sin offering, and a ram for a whole burnt offering. ⁶ And Aaron shall offer the young bull for his own sin offering, and make atonement for himself and his household. ⁷ Then he shall take the two he goats, and present them before the Lord at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony. ⁸ And Aaron shall cast lots on the goats, one lot, "For the Lord" and one lot, "For escape." ⁹ And Aaron shall bring forward the goat, on which the lot, "For the Lord" fell; and shall offer it for a sin offering, ¹⁰ but the goat, on which the lot, "For escape," fell, he shall present alive before the Lord, to make atonement on it, so as to let it escape; and he shall send it away into the wilderness. ¹¹ Then Aaron shall bring forward the young bull for his own sin offering, to make atonement for himself and his household, and shall slay the young bull for his sin offering; ¹² and he shall take a censer full of coals of fire from the altar, which is before the Lord, and he shall fill his hands with the compound incense, beaten fine, and carry it within the veil; ¹³ and he shall put the incense on the fire before the Lord; and the smoke of this incense shall cover the propitiatory which is on the testimonies, and he shall not die. ¹⁴ Then he shall take some of the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it with his finger on the propitiatory, on the east side. In front of the propitiatory he shall sprinkle some of the blood seven times with his finger. ¹⁵ Then he shall kill the goat for a sin offering; that for the people, before the Lord, and he shall carry some of its blood within the veil, and do with the blood thereof as he did with the blood of the bull, and sprinkle the blood thereof on the propitiatory, in front of the propitiatory, ¹⁶ and make atonement for the holy place on account of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and on account of their transgressions, for all their sins. While he shall be doing this in the tabernacle of the testimony, which is built among them in the midst of their uncleanness, ¹⁷ there shall be no other man in the tabernacle of the testimony, from the time of his going in to make an atonement in the holy place, until he come out. And when he shall have made atonement for himself, and his household, and for all the congregation of the children of Israel, ¹⁸ he shall come out to the altar which is before the Lord, and make atonement on it. He shall take some of the blood of the bull, and some of the blood of the goat, and put it on the horns of the altar round about, ¹⁹ and sprinkle some of the blood against it seven times with his finger, and purify it, and hallow it from the uncleanness of the children of Israel. ²⁰ And when he hath finished making atonement for the sanctuary, and for the tabernacle of the testimony, and the altar, and hath made purification for the priests, then he shall bring forward the living goat, ²¹ and Aaron shall lay his hands on the head of the live goat, and over it make confession of all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and of all their transgressions, and all their sins, and lay them on the head of the live goat, and send him away by the hand of a man ready for the purpose, into the wilderness. ²² And the goat shall bear away upon him their iniquities to an untrodden land. And having sent away the goat into the wilderness, ²³ Aaron shall go into the tabernacle of the testimony, and put off his linen raiment which he had on when he went into the holy place, and shall lay it up there. ²⁴ And he shall wash his body with water, in a holy place, and put on his robe, and come forth, and offer his own whole burnt offering, and the whole burnt offering of the people, and made atonement for himself and his household, and for the people, as well as for the priests; ²⁵ and shall offer up the suet of the sin offerings on the altar. ²⁶ And he who letteth go the he-goat which was sent away to be set at liberty, shall wash his clothes, and wash his body with water, and after that come into the camp. ²⁷ And they shall carry forth out of the camp the bull for the sin offering, and the goat for the sin offering, the blood of which was carried in to make atonement in the holy place, and shall burn them with fire, both the skins, and the flesh, and the dung thereof. ²⁸ And he who burneth them shall wash his clothes and wash his body with water, and after that he shall come into the camp. ²⁹ And this shall be to you an everlasting rite. In the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall humble your souls, and do no work, whether native or the proselyte who dwelleth among you; ³⁰ for on that day he shall make atonement for you, to purify you from all your sins before the Lord, that you may be cleansed. ³¹ This rest shall be to you a sabbath of sabbaths, and you shall humble your souls. It is an everlasting statute. ³² That priest shall make the atonement, who shall be anointed, and whose hands shall be consecrated to officiate as priest after his father. And he shall put on the linen raiment; the holy raiment, ³³ and shall make an atonement for the holy sanctuary, and for the tabernacle of the testimony, and he shall make atonement for the altar; and he shall make atonement for the priests, and for all the congregation. ³⁴ And the making this atonement for the children of Israel, for all their sins, shall be to you an everlasting statute. It shall be made once a year, as the Lord commanded Moses.
