9 And Aaron shall bring the goat on which the Lord’s lot fell, and offer it as a sin offering.
10 But the goat on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat shall be presented alive before the Lord, to make aatonement upon it, and to let it go as the scapegoat into the wilderness.
11 “And Aaron shall bring the bull of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make atonement for ahimself and for his house, and shall kill the bull as the sin offering which is for himself.
12 Then he shall take aa censer full of burning coals of fire from the altar before the Lord, with his hands full of bsweet incense beaten fine, and bring it inside the veil.
13 aAnd he shall put the incense on the fire before the Lord, that the cloud of incense may cover the bmercy seat that is on the Testimony, lest he cdie.
14 aHe shall take some of the blood of the bull and bsprinkle it with his finger on the mercy seat on the east side; and before the mercy seat he shall sprinkle some of the blood with his finger seven times.
15 a“Then he shall kill the goat of the sin offering, which is for the people, bring its blood binside the veil, do with that blood as he did with the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it on the mercy seat and before the mercy seat.
16 So he shall amake atonement for the Holy Place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions, for all their sins; and so he shall do for the tabernacle of meeting which remains among them in the midst of their uncleanness.
17 There shall be ano man in the tabernacle of meeting when he goes in to make atonement in the Holy Place, until he comes out, that he may make atonement for himself, for his household, and for all the assembly of Israel.
