Leviticus 16:11-24

11“Then Aaron shall offer the bull of the sin offering 1which is for himself and make atonement for himself and 2for his household, and he shall slaughter the bull of the sin offering which is for himself. 12He shall take a 3firepan full of coals of fire from upon the altar before the Lord and 4two handfuls of finely ground 5sweet incense, and bring it inside the veil. 13He shall put the incense on the fire before the Lord, that the cloud of incense may cover the 67mercy seat that is on the ark of the testimony, 8otherwise he will die. 14Moreover, 9he shall take some of the blood of the bull and sprinkle it 10with his finger on the 11mercy seat on the east side; also in front of the 12mercy seat he shall sprinkle some of the blood with his finger seven times.

15“Then he shall slaughter the goat of the sin offering 13which is for the people, and bring its blood inside the veil and do with its blood as he did with the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it on the 14mercy seat and in front of the 15mercy seat. 1616He shall make atonement for the holy place, because of the impurities of the sons of Israel and because of their transgressions in regard to all their sins; and thus he shall do for the tent of meeting which abides with them in the midst of their impurities. 17When he goes in to make atonement in the holy place, no one shall be in the tent of meeting until he comes out, that he may make atonement for himself and for his household and for all the assembly of Israel. 18Then he shall go out to the altar that is before the Lord and make atonement for it, and shall take some of the blood of the bull and of the blood of the goat and 17put it on the horns of the altar on all sides. 1918With his finger he shall sprinkle some of the blood on it seven times and cleanse it, and from the impurities of the sons of Israel consecrate it.

20“When he finishes atoning for the holy place and the tent of meeting and the altar, he shall offer the live goat. 21Then Aaron shall lay both of his hands on the head of the live goat, and 19confess over it all the iniquities of the sons of Israel and all their transgressions 20in regard to all their sins; and he shall lay them on the head of the goat and send it away into the wilderness by the hand of a man who stands in readiness. 22The goat shall bear on itself all their iniquities to a solitary land; and he shall release the goat in the wilderness.

23“Then Aaron shall come into the tent of meeting and take off 21the linen garments which he put on when he went into the holy place, and shall leave them there. 2422He shall bathe his 23body with water in a holy place and put on 24his clothes, and come forth and offer his burnt offering and the burnt offering of the people and make atonement for himself and for the people.
