Verses 1-5
And Jehovah speaketh
unto Moses,
after the death
of the two sons
of Aaron,
in their drawing near before Jehovah,
and they die;
yea, Jehovah saith unto Moses,
Speak unto Aaron thy brother, and he cometh not in at all times unto the sanctuary within the vail, unto the front of the mercy-seat, which [is] upon the ark, and he dieth not, for in a cloud I am seen upon the mercy-seat. With this doth Aaron come in unto the sanctuary; with a bullock, a son of the herd, for a sin-offering (brain://nfLq8f0DikG8d0X6fjMMzg/SinOffering), and a ram for a burnt-offering (brain://OEYEh5HXxkS0bFWWNTHjsQ/BurntOffering); Holy Garments a holy linen coat he putteth on, and linen trousers are on his flesh, and with a linen girdle he girdeth himself, and with a linen mitre he wrappeth himself up; they [are] holy garments; and he hath bathed with water his flesh, and hath put them on. And from the company
of the sons
of Israel
he taketh
two kids
of the goats
for a sin-offering,
and one ram
for a burnt-offering;
Verses 6-10
and Aaron hath
brought near
the bullock //Aaron’s offering//
of the sin-offering
which is his own,
and hath made atonement
for himself,
and for his house;
and he hath taken the two goats,
and hath caused them to stand
before Jehovah,
at the opening
of the tent of meeting.
And Aaron hath given lots over the two goats, one lot for Jehovah, //Yah’s offering// and one lot for a goat of departure; Azazel (brain://KIKpjKk2Q0K-0P1bv-sO5g/Azazel) //Azazel’s offering// and Aaron hath brought near the goat on which the lot for Jehovah hath gone up, //Yah’s offering// and hath made it a sin-offering. And the goat on which the lot for a goat of departure hath gone up //Azazel’s offering//
is caused to stand living
before Jehovah
to make atonement by it,
to send it away for a goat of departure
into the wilderness.
Verses 11-13
`And Aaron hath brought near
the bullock //Aaron’s offering//
of the sin-offering
which is his own,
and hath made atonement
for himself,
and for his house,
and hath slaughtered the bullock
of the sin-offering
which [is] his own,
and hath taken the fulness of the censer
of burning coals
of fire
from off the altar,
from before Jehovah,
and the fulness of his hands
of thin spice-perfume,
and hath brought [it] within the vail;
and he hath put the perfume
on the fire
before Jehovah,
and the cloud of the perfume
hath covered the mercy-seat
which [is] on the testimony (brain://CPWLP6OrlUyr3n0XW7LGQg/TheTestimony),
and he dieth not.
Verses 14-17
`And he hath taken
of the blood of the bullock, //Aaron’s offering//
and hath sprinkled with his finger
on the front of the mercy-seat
eastward;
even at the front of the mercy-seat
he doth sprinkle seven times
of the blood with his finger.
And he hath slaughtered the goat //Yah’s offering//
of the sin-offering
which [is] the people's,
and hath brought in its blood
unto the inside of the vail,
and hath done with its blood
as he hath done with the blood of the bullock, //Aaron’s offering//
and hath sprinkled it on the mercy-seat,
and at the front of the mercy-seat,
and he hath made atonement
for the sanctuary
because of the uncleanness
of the sons of Israel,
and because of their transgressions
in all their sins;
and so he doth for the tent of meeting
which is tabernacling
with them
in the midst of their uncleannesses.
And no man is in the tent of meeting
in his going in to make atonement
in the sanctuary,
till his coming out;
and he hath made atonement
for himself,
and for his house,
and for all the assembly of Israel.
Verses 18-22
And he hath gone out unto the altar which [is] before Jehovah, and hath made atonement for it; and he hath taken of the blood of the bullock, //Aaron’s offering// and of the blood of the goat, //Yah’s offering// and hath put on the horns of the altar round about; and he hath sprinkled on it of the blood with his finger seven times, and hath cleansed it, and hath hallowed it from the uncleannesses of the sons of Israel. And he hath ceased from making atonement
[for] the sanctuary,
and the tent of meeting,
and the altar,
and hath brought near the living goat; //Azazel’s offering//
and Aaron hath laid his two hands
on the head
of the living goat,
and hath confessed over it
all the iniquities
of the sons
of Israel,
and all their transgressions
in all their sins,
and hath put them on the head of the goat,
and hath sent [it] away
by the hand
of a fit man
into the wilderness;
and the goat hath borne on him
all their iniquities
unto a land of separation.
`And he hath sent the goat away
into the wilderness,
Verses 23-28
and Aaron hath come in
unto the tent of meeting,
and hath stripped off the linen garments
which he had put on in his going in
unto the sanctuary,
and hath placed them there;
and he hath bathed his flesh with water
in the holy place,
and hath put on his garments,
and hath come out //and made burnt-offering//
and hath made his burnt-offering, //Aaron’s offering//
and the burnt-offering of the people,
and hath made atonement
for himself
and for the people;
and with the fat of the sin-offering
he doth make perfume on the altar.
`And he who is sending away the goat
for a goat of departure //Azazel (brain://KIKpjKk2Q0K-0P1bv-sO5g/Azazel)// //Azazel’s offering//
doth wash his garments,
and hath bathed his flesh with water,
and afterwards he cometh in unto the camp.
`And the bullock of the sin-offering, //Aaron’s offering//
and the goat of the sin-offering, //Yah’s offering//
whose blood hath been brought in
to make atonement
in the sanctuary,
doth [one] bring out
unto the outside of the camp,
and they have burnt with fire
their skins,
and their flesh,
and their dung;
and he who is burning them
doth wash his garments,
and hath bathed his flesh with water,
and afterwards he cometh in unto the camp.
Verses 29-34
`And it hath been to you
for a statute age-during,
in the seventh month,
in the tenth of the month,
ye humble yourselves,
and do no work
-- the native,
and the sojourner
who is sojourning in your midst;
for on this day he maketh atonement for you,
to cleanse you;
from all your sins
before Jehovah ye are clean;
it [is] to you a sabbath of rest,
and ye have humbled yourselves
-- a statute age-during.
`And the priest
whom he doth anoint,
and whose hand he doth consecrate
to act as priest
instead of his father,
hath made atonement,
and hath put on the linen garments,
the holy garments;
and he hath made atonement [for]
the holy sanctuary;
and [for] the tent of meeting,
even [for] the altar
he doth make atonement;
yea, for the priests,
and for all the people of
the assembly
he maketh atonement.
`And this hath been to you
for a statute age-during,
to make atonement
for the sons
of Israel,
because of all their sins,
once in a year;'
and he doth as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
