The Burnt Offering

1 Now the Lord ^(A)called to Moses, and spoke to him ^(B)from the tabernacle of meeting, saying, ² “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: ^(C)‘When any one of you brings an offering to the Lord, you shall bring your offering of the livestock—of the herd and of the flock.

³ ‘If his offering is a burnt sacrifice of the herd, let him offer a male ^(D)without blemish; he shall offer it of his own free will at the door of the tabernacle of meeting before the Lord. ^4 (E)Then he shall put his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it will be ^(F)accepted on his behalf ^(G)to make atonement for him. ⁵ He shall kill the ^(H)bull before the Lord; ^(I)and the priests, Aaron’s sons, shall bring the blood ^(J)and sprinkle the blood all around on the altar that is by the door of the tabernacle of meeting. ⁶ And he shall ^(K)skin the burnt offering and cut it into its pieces. ⁷ The sons of Aaron the priest shall put ^(L)fire on the altar, and ^(M)lay the wood in order on the fire. ⁸ Then the priests, Aaron’s sons, shall lay the parts, the head, and the fat in order on the wood that is on the fire upon the altar; ⁹ but he shall wash its entrails and its legs with water. And the priest shall burn all on the altar as a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, a ^(N)sweet^[a] aroma to the Lord.

¹⁰ ‘If his offering is of the flocks—of the sheep or of the goats—as a burnt sacrifice, he shall bring a male ^(O)without blemish. ^11 (P)He shall kill it on the north side of the altar before the Lord; and the priests, Aaron’s sons, shall sprinkle its blood all around on the altar. ¹² And he shall cut it into its pieces, with its head and its fat; and the priest shall lay them in order on the wood that is on the fire upon the altar; ¹³ but he shall wash the entrails and the legs with water. Then the priest shall bring it all and burn it on the altar; it is a burnt sacrifice, an ^(Q)offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the Lord.

¹⁴ ‘And if the burnt sacrifice of his offering to the Lord is of birds, then he shall bring his offering of ^(R)turtledoves or young pigeons. ¹⁵ The priest shall bring it to the altar, ^[b]wring off its head, and burn it on the altar; its blood shall be drained out at the side of the altar. ¹⁶ And he shall remove its crop with its feathers and cast it ^(S)beside the altar on the east side, into the place for ashes. ¹⁷ Then he shall split it at its wings, but ^(T)shall not divide it completely; and the priest shall burn it on the altar, on the wood that is on the fire. ^(U)It is a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, a ^[c]sweet aroma to the Lord.

The Grain Offering

2 ‘When anyone offers ^(V)a grain offering to the Lord, his offering shall be of fine flour. And he shall pour oil on it, and put ^(W)frankincense on it. ² He shall bring it to Aaron’s sons, the priests, one of whom shall take from it his handful of fine flour and oil with all the frankincense. And the priest shall burn ^(X)it as a memorial on the altar, an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the Lord. ^3 (Y)The rest of the grain offering shall be Aaron’s and his ^(Z)sons’. ^(AA)It is most holy of the offerings to the Lord made by fire.

⁴ ‘And if you bring as an offering a grain offering baked in the oven, it shall be unleavened cakes of fine flour mixed with oil, or unleavened wafers ^(AB)anointed^[d] with oil. ⁵ But if your offering is a grain offering baked in a ^[e]pan, it shall be of fine flour, unleavened, mixed with oil. ⁶ You shall break it in pieces and pour oil on it; it is a grain offering.

⁷ ‘If your offering is a grain offering baked in a ^(AC)covered pan, it shall be made of fine flour with oil. ⁸ You shall bring the grain offering that is made of these things to the Lord. And when it is presented to the priest, he shall bring it to the altar. ⁹ Then the priest shall take from the grain offering ^(AD)a memorial portion, and burn it on the altar. It is an ^(AE)offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the Lord. ¹⁰ And ^(AF)what is left of the grain offering shall be Aaron’s and his sons’. It is most holy of the offerings to the Lord made by fire.

¹¹ ‘No grain offering which you bring to the Lord shall be made with ^(AG)leaven, for you shall burn no leaven nor any honey in any offering to the Lord made by fire. ^12 (AH)As for the offering of the firstfruits, you shall offer them to the Lord, but they shall not be burned on the altar for a sweet aroma. ¹³ And every offering of your grain offering ^(AI)you shall season with salt; you shall not allow ^(AJ)the salt of the covenant of your God to be lacking from your grain offering. ^(AK)With all your offerings you shall offer salt.

¹⁴ ‘If you offer a grain offering of your firstfruits to the Lord, ^(AL)you shall offer for the grain offering of your firstfruits green heads of grain roasted on the fire, grain beaten from ^(AM)full heads. ¹⁵ And ^(AN)you shall put oil on it, and lay frankincense on it. It is a grain offering. ¹⁶ Then the priest shall burn ^(AO)the memorial portion: part of its beaten grain and part of its oil, with all the frankincense, as an offering made by fire to the Lord.

The Peace Offering

3 ‘When his offering is a ^(AP)sacrifice of a peace offering, if he offers it of the herd, whether male or female, he shall offer it ^(AQ)without ^[f]blemish before the Lord. ² And ^(AR)he shall lay his hand on the head of his offering, and kill it at the door of the tabernacle of meeting; and Aaron’s sons, the priests, shall ^(AS)sprinkle the blood all around on the altar. ³ Then he shall offer from the sacrifice of the peace offering an offering made by fire to the Lord. ^(AT)The fat that covers the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails, ⁴ the two kidneys and the fat that is on them by the flanks, and the fatty lobe attached to the liver above the kidneys, he shall remove; ⁵ and Aaron’s sons ^(AU)shall burn it on the altar upon the ^(AV)burnt sacrifice, which is on the wood that is on the fire, as an ^(AW)offering made by fire, a ^(AX)sweet aroma to the Lord.

⁶ ‘If his offering as a sacrifice of a peace offering to the Lord is of the flock, whether male or female, ^(AY)he shall offer it without blemish. ⁷ If he offers a ^(AZ)lamb as his offering, then he shall ^(BA)offer it ^(BB)before the Lord. ⁸ And he shall lay his hand on the head of his offering, and kill it before the tabernacle of meeting; and Aaron’s sons shall sprinkle its blood all around on the altar.

⁹ ‘Then he shall offer from the sacrifice of the peace offering, as an offering made by fire to the Lord, its fat and the whole fat tail which he shall remove close to the backbone. And the fat that covers the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails, ¹⁰ the two kidneys and the fat that is on them by the flanks, and the fatty lobe attached to the liver above the kidneys, he shall remove; ¹¹ and the priest shall burn them on the altar as ^(BC)food, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

¹² ‘And if his ^(BD)offering is a goat, then ^(BE)he shall offer it before the Lord. ¹³ He shall lay his hand on its head and kill it before the tabernacle of meeting; and the sons of Aaron shall sprinkle its blood all around on the altar. ¹⁴ Then he shall offer from it his offering, as an offering made by fire to the Lord. The fat that covers the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails, ¹⁵ the two kidneys and the fat that is on them by the flanks, and the fatty lobe attached to the liver above the kidneys, he shall remove; ¹⁶ and the priest shall burn them on the altar as food, an offering made by fire for a sweet aroma; ^(BF)all the fat is the Lord’s.

¹⁷ ‘This shall be a ^(BG)perpetual^[g] statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings: you shall eat neither fat nor ^(BH)blood.’ ”

The Sin Offering

4 Now the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ² “Speak to the children of Israel, saying: ^(BI)‘If a person sins ^[h]unintentionally against any of the commandments of the Lord in anything which ought not to be done, and does any of them, ^3 (BJ)if the anointed priest sins, bringing guilt on the people, then let him offer to the Lord for his sin which he has sinned ^(BK)a young bull without blemish as a ^(BL)sin offering. ⁴ He shall bring the bull ^(BM)to the door of the tabernacle of meeting before the Lord, lay his hand on the bull’s head, and kill the bull before the Lord. ⁵ Then the anointed priest ^(BN)shall take some of the bull’s blood and bring it to the tabernacle of meeting. ⁶ The priest shall dip his finger in the blood and sprinkle some of the blood seven times before the Lord, in front of the ^(BO)veil of the sanctuary. ⁷ And the priest shall ^(BP)put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of sweet incense before the Lord, which is in the tabernacle of meeting; and he shall pour ^(BQ)the remaining blood of the bull at the base of the altar of the burnt offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of meeting. ⁸ He shall take from it all the fat of the bull as the sin offering. The fat that covers the entrails and all the fat which is on the entrails, ⁹ the two kidneys and the fat that is on them by the flanks, and the fatty lobe attached to the liver above the kidneys, he shall remove, ^10 (BR)as it was taken from the bull of the sacrifice of the peace offering; and the priest shall burn them on the altar of the burnt offering. ^11 (BS)But the bull’s hide and all its flesh, with its head and legs, its entrails and offal— ¹² the whole bull he shall carry outside the camp to a clean place, ^(BT)where the ashes are poured out, and ^(BU)burn it on wood with fire; where the ashes are poured out it shall be burned.

¹³ ‘Now ^(BV)if the whole congregation of Israel sins unintentionally, ^(BW)and the thing is hidden from the eyes of the assembly, and they have done something against any of the commandments of the Lord in anything which should not be done, and are guilty; ¹⁴ when the sin which they have committed becomes known, then the assembly shall offer a young bull for the sin, and bring it before the tabernacle of meeting. ¹⁵ And the elders of the congregation ^(BX)shall lay their hands on the head of the bull before the Lord. Then the bull shall be killed before the Lord. ^16 (BY)The anointed priest shall bring some of the bull’s blood to the tabernacle of meeting. ¹⁷ Then the priest shall dip his finger in the blood and sprinkle it seven times before the Lord, in front of the veil. ¹⁸ And he shall put some of the blood on the horns of the altar which is before the Lord, which is in the tabernacle of meeting; and he shall pour the remaining blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of meeting. ¹⁹ He shall take all the fat from it and burn it on the altar. ²⁰ And he shall do ^(BZ)with the bull as he did with the bull as a sin offering; thus he shall do with it. ^(CA)So the priest shall make ^[i]atonement for them, and it shall be forgiven them. ²¹ Then he shall carry the bull outside the camp, and burn it as he burned the first bull. It is a sin offering for the assembly.

²² ‘When a ^[j]ruler has sinned, and ^(CB)done something unintentionally against any of the commandments of the Lord his God in anything which should not be done, and is guilty, ²³ or ^(CC)if his sin which he has committed ^[k]comes to his knowledge, he shall bring as his offering a kid of the goats, a male without blemish. ²⁴ And ^(CD)he shall lay his hand on the head of the goat, and kill it at the place where they kill the burnt offering before the Lord. It is a sin offering. ^25 (CE)The priest shall take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and pour its blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering. ²⁶ And he shall burn all its fat on the altar, like ^(CF)the fat of the sacrifice of the peace offering. ^(CG)So the priest shall make ^[l]atonement for him concerning his sin, and it shall be forgiven him.

^27 (CH)‘If ^[m]anyone of the ^[n]common people sins unintentionally by doing something against any of the commandments of the Lord in anything which ought not to be done, and is guilty, ²⁸ or ^(CI)if his sin which he has committed comes to his knowledge, then he shall bring as his offering a kid of the goats, a female without blemish, for his sin which he has committed. ^29 (CJ)And he shall lay his hand on the head of the sin offering, and kill the sin offering at the place of the burnt offering. ³⁰ Then the priest shall take some of its blood with his finger, put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and pour all the remaining blood at the base of the altar. ^31 (CK)He shall remove all its fat, ^(CL)as fat is removed from the sacrifice of the peace offering; and the priest shall burn it on the altar for a ^(CM)sweet aroma to the Lord. ^(CN)So the priest shall make atonement for him, and it shall be forgiven him.

³² ‘If he brings a lamb as his sin offering, ^(CO)he shall bring a female without blemish. ³³ Then he shall ^(CP)lay his hand on the head of the sin offering, and kill it as a sin offering at the place where they kill the burnt offering. ³⁴ The priest shall take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and pour all the remaining blood at the base of the altar. ³⁵ He shall remove all its fat, as the fat of the lamb is removed from the sacrifice of the peace offering. Then the priest shall burn it on the altar, ^(CQ)according to the offerings made by fire to the Lord. ^(CR)So the priest shall make atonement for his sin that he has committed, and it shall be forgiven him.

The Trespass Offering

5 ‘If a person sins in ^(CS)hearing the utterance of an oath, and is a witness, whether he has seen or known of the matter—if he does not tell it, he ^(CT)bears ^[o]guilt.

² ‘Or ^(CU)if a person touches any unclean thing, whether it is the carcass of an unclean beast, or the carcass of unclean livestock, or the carcass of unclean creeping things, and he is unaware of it, he also shall be unclean and ^(CV)guilty. ³ Or if he touches ^(CW)human uncleanness—whatever uncleanness with which a man may be defiled, and he is unaware of it—when he realizes it, then he shall be guilty.

⁴ ‘Or if a person ^[p]swears, speaking thoughtlessly with his lips ^(CX)to do evil or ^(CY)to do good, whatever it is that a man may pronounce by an oath, and he is unaware of it—when he realizes it, then he shall be guilty in any of these matters.

⁵ ‘And it shall be, when he is guilty in any of these matters, that he shall ^(CZ)confess that he has sinned in that thing; ⁶ and he shall bring his trespass offering to the Lord for his sin which he has committed, a female from the flock, a lamb or a kid of the goats as a sin offering. So the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin.

^7 (DA)‘If he is not able to bring a lamb, then he shall bring to the Lord, for his trespass which he has committed, two ^(DB)turtledoves or two young pigeons: one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering. ⁸ And he shall bring them to the priest, who shall offer that which is for the sin offering first, and ^(DC)wring off its head from its neck, but shall not divide it ^[q]completely. ⁹ Then he shall sprinkle some of the blood of the sin offering on the side of the altar, and the ^(DD)rest of the blood shall be drained out at the base of the altar. It is a sin offering. ¹⁰ And he shall offer the second as a burnt offering according to the ^(DE)prescribed manner. So ^(DF)the priest shall make atonement on his behalf for his sin which he has committed, and it shall be forgiven him.

¹¹ ‘But if he is ^(DG)not able to bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons, then he who sinned shall bring for his offering one-tenth of an ephah of fine flour as a sin offering. ^(DH)He shall put no oil on it, nor shall he put frankincense on it, for it is a sin offering. ¹² Then he shall bring it to the priest, and the priest shall take his handful of it ^(DI)as a memorial portion, and burn it on the altar ^(DJ)according to the offerings made by fire to the Lord. It is a sin offering. ^13 (DK)The priest shall make atonement for him, ^[r]for his sin that he has committed in any of these matters; and it shall be forgiven him. ^(DL)The rest shall be the priest’s as a grain offering.’ ”

Offerings with Restitution

¹⁴ Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: ^15 (DM)“If a person commits a trespass, and sins unintentionally in regard to the holy things of the Lord, then ^(DN)he shall bring to the Lord as his trespass offering a ram without blemish from the flocks, with your valuation in shekels of silver according to ^(DO)the shekel of the sanctuary, as a trespass offering. ¹⁶ And he shall make restitution for the harm that he has done in regard to the holy thing, ^(DP)and shall add one-fifth to it and give it to the priest. ^(DQ)So the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering, and it shall be forgiven him.

¹⁷ “If a person sins, and commits any of these things which are forbidden to be done by the commandments of the Lord, ^(DR)though he does not know it, yet he is ^(DS)guilty and shall bear his ^[s]iniquity. ^18 (DT)And he shall bring to the priest a ram without blemish from the flock, with your valuation, as a trespass offering. So the priest shall make atonement for him regarding his ignorance in which he erred and did not know it, and it shall be forgiven him. ¹⁹ It is a trespass offering; ^(DU)he has certainly trespassed against the Lord.”

Laws About the Burnt Offering, the Grain Offering, and the Sin Offering

6 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: ² “If a person sins and ^(DV)commits a trespass against the Lord by ^(DW)lying^[t] to his neighbor about ^(DX)what was delivered to him for safekeeping, or about ^[u]a pledge, or about a robbery, or if he has ^(DY)extorted from his neighbor, ³ or if he ^(DZ)has found what was lost and lies concerning it, and ^(EA)swears falsely—in any one of these things that a man may do in which he sins: ⁴ then it shall be, because he has sinned and is guilty, that he shall ^[v]restore ^(EB)what he has stolen, or the thing which he has extorted, or what was delivered to him for safekeeping, or the lost thing which he found, ⁵ or all that about which he has sworn falsely. He shall ^(EC)restore its full value, add one-fifth more to it, and give it to whomever it belongs, on the day of his trespass offering. ⁶ And he shall bring his trespass offering to the Lord, ^(ED)a ram without blemish from the flock, with your ^[w]valuation, as a trespass offering, to the priest. ^7 (EE)So the priest shall make atonement for him before the Lord, and he shall be forgiven for any one of these things that he may have done in which he trespasses.”

The Law of the Burnt Offering

⁸ Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ⁹ “Command Aaron and his sons, saying, ‘This is the ^(EF)law of the burnt offering: The burnt offering shall be on the hearth upon the altar all night until morning, and the fire of the altar shall be kept burning on it. ^10 (EG)And the priest shall put on his linen garment, and his linen trousers he shall put on his body, and take up the ashes of the burnt offering which the fire has consumed on the altar, and he shall put them ^(EH)beside the altar. ¹¹ Then ^(EI)he shall take off his garments, put on other garments, and carry the ashes outside the camp ^(EJ)to a clean place. ¹² And the fire on the altar shall be kept burning on it; it shall not be put out. And the priest shall burn wood on it every morning, and lay the burnt offering in order on it; and he shall burn on it ^(EK)the fat of the peace offerings. ¹³ A fire shall always be burning on the ^(EL)altar; it shall never go out.

The Law of the Grain Offering

¹⁴ ‘This is the law of the grain offering: The sons of Aaron shall offer it on the altar before the Lord. ¹⁵ He shall take from it his handful of the fine flour of the grain offering, with its oil, and all the frankincense which is on the grain offering, and shall burn it on the altar for a sweet aroma, as a memorial to the Lord. ¹⁶ And the remainder of it Aaron and his sons shall eat; with unleavened bread it shall be eaten in a holy place; in the court of the tabernacle of meeting they shall eat it. ¹⁷ It shall not be baked with leaven. I have given it as their ^[x]portion of My offerings made by fire; it is most holy, like the sin offering and the ^(EM)trespass offering. ^18 (EN)All the males among the children of Aaron may eat it. ^(EO)It shall be a statute forever in your generations concerning the offerings made by fire to the Lord. ^(EP)Everyone who touches them must be holy.’ ”

¹⁹ And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ^20 (EQ)“This is the offering of Aaron and his sons, which they shall offer to the Lord, beginning on the day when he is anointed: one-tenth of an ^(ER)ephah of fine flour as a daily grain offering, half of it in the morning and half of it at night. ²¹ It shall be made in a ^(ES)pan with oil. When it is mixed, you shall bring it in. The baked pieces of the grain offering you shall offer for a ^[y]sweet aroma to the Lord. ²² The priest from among his sons, ^(ET)who is anointed in his place, shall offer it. It is a statute forever to the Lord. ^(EU)It shall be ^[z]wholly burned. ²³ For every grain offering for the priest shall be wholly burned. It shall not be eaten.”

The Law of the Sin Offering

²⁴ Also the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ²⁵ “Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, ‘This is the law of the sin offering: ^(EV)In the place where the burnt offering is killed, the sin offering shall be killed before the Lord. It is most holy. ^26 (EW)The priest who offers it for sin shall eat it. In a holy place it shall be eaten, in the court of the tabernacle of meeting. ^27 (EX)Everyone who touches its flesh ^[aa]must be holy. And when its blood is sprinkled on any garment, you shall wash that on which it was sprinkled, in a holy place. ²⁸ But the earthen vessel in which it is boiled ^(EY)shall be broken. And if it is boiled in a bronze pot, it shall be both scoured and rinsed in water. ²⁹ All the males among the priests may eat it. It is most holy. ^30 (EZ)But no sin offering from which any of the blood is brought into the tabernacle of meeting, to make atonement in ^[ab]the holy ^(FA)place, shall be ^(FB)eaten. It shall be ^(FC)burned in the fire.

The Day of Atonement

16 Now the Lord spoke to Moses after ^(A)the 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 ^(B)not 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 ^(C)I will appear in the cloud above the mercy seat.

^3 [a]“Thus Aaron shall ^(D)come into the Holy Place: ^(E)with the blood of a young bull as a sin offering, and of a ram as a burnt offering. ⁴ He shall put the ^(F)holy linen tunic and the linen trousers on his body; he shall be girded with a linen sash, and with the linen turban he shall be attired. These are holy garments. Therefore ^(G)he shall wash his body in water, and put them on. ⁵ And he shall take from ^(H)the 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 ^(I)make 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. 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 ^(J)atonement 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 ^(K)himself, and make atonement for himself and for his house, and shall kill the bull as the sin offering which is for himself. ¹² Then he shall take ^(L)a censer full of burning coals of fire from the altar before the Lord, with his hands full of ^(M)sweet incense beaten fine, and bring it inside the veil. ^13 (N)And he shall put the incense on the fire before the Lord, that the cloud of incense may cover the ^(O)mercy seat that is on the Testimony, lest he ^(P)die. ^14 (Q)He shall take some of the blood of the bull and ^(R)sprinkle 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 (S)“Then he shall kill the goat of the sin offering, which is for the people, bring its blood ^(T)inside 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 ^(U)make 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 ^(V)no 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. ¹⁸ And he shall go out to the altar that is before the Lord, and make atonement for ^(W)it, and shall take some of the blood of the bull and some of the blood of the goat, and put it on the horns of the altar all around. ¹⁹ Then he shall sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times, cleanse it, and ^(X)consecrate^[b] it from the ^[c]uncleanness of the children of Israel.

²⁰ “And when he has made an end of atoning for the Holy Place, the tabernacle of meeting, and the altar, he shall bring the live goat. ²¹ Aaron shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, ^(Y)confess over it all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions, concerning all their sins, ^(Z)putting them on the head of the goat, and shall send it away into the wilderness by the hand of a suitable man. ²² The goat ^[d]shall ^(AA)bear on itself all their iniquities to an ^[e]uninhabited land; and he shall ^(AB)release the goat in the wilderness.

²³ “Then Aaron shall come into the tabernacle of meeting, ^(AC)shall take off the linen garments which he put on when he went into the Holy Place, and shall leave them there. ²⁴ And he shall wash his body with water in a holy place, put on his garments, come out and offer his burnt offering and the burnt offering of the people, and make ^[f]atonement for himself and for the people. ^25 (AD)The fat of the sin offering he shall burn on the altar. ²⁶ And he who released the goat as the scapegoat shall wash his clothes ^(AE)and bathe his body in water, and afterward he may come into the camp. ^27 (AF)The 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 in the fire their skins, their flesh, and their offal. ²⁸ Then he who burns them shall wash his clothes and bathe his body in water, and afterward he may come into the camp.

²⁹ “This shall be a statute forever for you: ^(AG)In the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall ^[g]afflict your souls, and do no work at all, whether a native of your own country or a stranger who ^[h]dwells among you. ³⁰ For on that day the priest shall make ^[i]atonement for you, to ^(AH)cleanse you, that you may be clean from all your sins before the Lord. ^31 (AI)It is a sabbath of solemn rest for you, and you shall afflict your souls. It is a statute forever. ^32 (AJ)And the priest, who is anointed and ^(AK)consecrated to minister as priest in his father’s place, shall make atonement, and put on the linen clothes, the holy garments; ³³ then he shall make ^[j]atonement for ^[k]the Holy Sanctuary, and he shall make atonement for the tabernacle of meeting and for the altar, and he shall make atonement for the priests and for all the people of the assembly. ^34 (AL)This shall be an everlasting statute for you, to make atonement for the children of Israel, for all their sins, ^(AM)once a year.” And he did as the Lord commanded Moses.
