⁷ Moses said to Aaron, “Come to the altar and sacrifice your sin offering and your burnt offering and make atonement for yourself and the people;^(A) sacrifice the offering that is for the people and make atonement for them, as the Lord has commanded.^(B)”

He sacrificed for their sins once for all^(C) when he offered himself.^{(D) 28} For the law appoints as high priests men in all their weakness;^(E) but the oath, which came after the law, appointed the Son,^(F) who has been made perfect^(G) forever.

⁷ But only the high priest entered^(A) the inner room,^(B) and that only once a year,^(C) and never without blood,^(D) which he offered for himself^(E) and for the sins the people had committed in ignorance.^(F)
