1Adonai spoke to Moses Drawn out, after the death of the two sons of Aaron Light-bringer, when they came near before Adonai , and died;
2and Adonai said to Moses Drawn out, “Tell Aaron Light-bringer your brother, not to come at all times into the Most Holy Place within the veil, before the mercy seat which is on the ark; lest he die: for I will appear in the cloud on the mercy seat.
3“Aaron Light-bringer shall come into the sanctuary with a young bull for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering.
4He shall put on the holy linen coat. He shall have the linen breeches on his body, and shall put on the linen sash, and he shall be clothed with the linen turban. They are the holy garments. He shall bathe his body in water, and put them on.
5He shall take from the congregation of the children of Israel God prevails two male goats for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering.
6“Aaron Light-bringer shall offer the bull of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make atonement for himself and for his house.
7He shall take the two goats, and set them before Adonai at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
8Aaron Light-bringer shall cast lots for the two goats; one lot for Adonai , and the other lot for the scapegoat.
9Aaron Light-bringer shall present the goat on which the lot fell for Adonai , and offer him for a sin offering.
10But the goat, on which the lot fell for the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before Adonai , to make atonement for him, to send him away for the scapegoat into the wilderness.
11“Aaron Light-bringer shall present the bull of the sin offering, which is for himself, and shall make atonement for himself and for his house, and shall kill the bull of the sin offering which is for himself.
12He shall take a censer full of coals of fire from off the altar before Adonai , and two handfuls of sweet incense beaten small, and bring it within the veil:
13and he shall put the incense on the fire before Adonai , that the cloud of the incense may cover the mercy seat that is on the testimony, so that he will not die.
14He shall take some of the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it with his finger on the mercy seat on the east; and before the mercy seat he shall sprinkle some of the blood with his finger seven times.
15“Then he shall kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the people, and bring his blood within the veil, and do with his blood as he did with the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it on the mercy seat, and before the mercy seat.
16He shall make atonement for the Holy Place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel God prevails, and because of their transgressions, even all their sins; and so he shall do for the Tent of Meeting, that dwells with them in the middle of their uncleanness.
17No one shall be in the Tent of Meeting when he enters to make atonement in the Holy Place, until he comes out, and has made atonement for himself and for his household, and for all the assembly of Israel God prevails. (LY:2)
18“He shall go out to the altar that is before Adonai and make atonement for it, and shall take some of the bull’s blood, and some of the goat’s blood, and put it around on the horns of the altar.

19He shall sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and make it holy from the uncleanness of the children of Israel God prevails.
20“When he has finished atoning for the Holy Place, the Tent of Meeting, and the altar, he shall present the live goat.
21Aaron Light-bringer shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, and yadah ·extend hands in confession· over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel God prevails, and all their transgressions, even all their sins; and he shall put them on the head of the goat, and shall send him away into the wilderness by the hand of a man who is in readiness.
22The goat shall carry all their iniquities on himself to a solitary land, and he shall let the goat go in the wilderness.
23“Aaron Light-bringer shall come into the Tent of Meeting, and shall take off the linen garments, which he put on when he went into the Holy Place, and shall leave them there.
24Then he shall bathe himself in water in a holy place, and put on his garments, and come out and offer his burnt offering and the burnt offering of the people, and make atonement for himself and for the people. (RY:2, LY:3)
25The fat of the sin offering he shall burn on the altar.
26“He who lets the goat go for the scapegoat shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp.
27The bull for the sin offering, and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the Holy Place, shall be carried outside the camp; and they shall burn their skins, their flesh, and their dung with fire.
28He who burns them shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp.
29“It shall be a regulation to you forever: in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall afflict your souls, and shall do no kind of work, the native-born, or the stranger who lives as a foreigner among you:
30for on this day shall atonement be made for you, to cleanse you; from all your sins you shall be clean before Adonai .
31It is a Sabbath ·To cease· of solemn rest to you, and you shall afflict your souls. It is a regulation forever.
32The priest, who is anointed and who is consecrated to be priest in his father’s place, shall make the atonement, and shall put on the linen garments, even the holy garments.
33Then he shall make atonement for the Holy Sanctuary; and he shall make atonement for the Tent of Meeting and for the altar; and he shall make atonement for the priests and for all the people of the assembly.
34“This shall be an everlasting regulation for you, to make atonement for the children of Israel God prevails once in the year because of all their sins.” It was done as Adonai enjoined Moses Drawn out.
