Leviticus 16:2-19

2The Lord said to Moses:

“Tell your brother Aaron that he shall not enter 1at any time into the holy place inside the veil, before the 2mercy seat which is on the ark, or he will die; for 3I will appear in the cloud over the 4mercy seat. 3Aaron shall enter the holy place with this: with a 5bull for a 6sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering. 4He shall put on the 7holy linen tunic, and the linen undergarments shall be next to his 8body, and he shall be girded with the linen sash and attired with the linen turban (these are holy garments). Then he shall 9bathe his 10body in water and put them on. 5He shall take from the congregation of the sons of Israel 11two male goats for a sin offering and one ram for a burnt offering. 6Then 12Aaron shall offer the bull for the sin offering which is for himself, that he may make atonement for himself and for his household. 7He shall take the two goats and present them before the Lord at the doorway of the tent of meeting. 8Aaron shall cast lots for the two goats, one lot for the Lord and the other lot for the 13scapegoat. 9Then Aaron shall offer the goat on which the lot for the Lord fell, and make it a sin offering. 10But the goat on which the lot for the 14scapegoat fell shall be presented alive before the Lord, to make 15atonement upon it, to send it into the wilderness as the 16scapegoat.

11“Then Aaron shall offer the bull of the sin offering 17which is for himself and make atonement for himself and 18for his household, and he shall slaughter the bull of the sin offering which is for himself. 12He shall take a 19firepan full of coals of fire from upon the altar before the Lord and 20two handfuls of finely ground 21sweet 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 2223mercy seat that is on the ark of the testimony, 24otherwise he will die. 14Moreover, 25he shall take some of the blood of the bull and sprinkle it 26with his finger on the 27mercy seat on the east side; also in front of the 28mercy seat he shall sprinkle some of the blood with his finger seven times.

15“Then he shall slaughter the goat of the sin offering 29which 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 30mercy seat and in front of the 31mercy seat. 1632He 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 33put it on the horns of the altar on all sides. 1934With 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.
