The Day of Atonement
1 Now the Lord spoke to Moses after athe death of the two sons of Aaron, when they offered profane fire before the Lord, and died;
2 and the Lord said to Moses: “Tell Aaron your brother anot to come at just any time into the Holy Place inside the veil, before the mercy seat which is on the ark, lest he die; for bI will appear in the cloud above the mercy seat.
3 “Thus Aaron shall acome into the Holy Place: bwith the blood of a young bull as a sin offering, and of a ram as a burnt offering.
4 He shall put the aholy linen tunic and the linen trousers on his body; bhe shall be girded with a linen sash, and with the linen turban he shall be attired. These are holy garments. Therefore he shall wash his body in water, and put them on.
5 And he shall take from athe congregation of the children of Israel two kids of the goats as a sin offering, and one ram as a burnt offering.
6 “Aaron shall offer the bull as a sin offering, which is for himself, and amake atonement for himself and for his house.
7 He shall take the two goats and present them before the Lord at the door of the tabernacle of meeting.
8 Then Aaron shall cast lots for the two goats: one lot for the Lord and the other lot for the scapegoat.
