18And He saidH559 to me, “16SonH1121 of manH120, thisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 17GodH3068 saysH559: ‘TheseH428 are the statutesH2708 for the altarH4196 on the dayH3117 it is builtH6213, to offerH5927 18burntH5930 offeringsH5930 on it and to 19sprinkleH2236 bloodH1818 on it. 19You shall giveH5414 to the LeviticalH3881 priestsH3548 whoH834 are from the descendantsH2233 of 20ZadokH6659, who comeH7131 21nearH7138 to Me to serveH8334 Me,’ declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068, ‘a 2223bullH6499H1121H1241 as a 24sinH2403 offeringH2403. 20And you shall takeH3947 someH4480 of its bloodH1818 and putH5414 it on its fourH702 25hornsH7161 and on the fourH702 cornersH6438 of the 26ledgeH5835, and on the borderH1366 allH5439 aroundH5439; so you shall 27cleanseH2398 it and makeH3722 atonementH3722 for it. 21You shall also takeH3947 the bullH6499 as the sinH2403 offeringH2403, and it shall be 28burnedH8313 in the appointedH4662 placeH4662 of the houseH1004, outsideH4480H2351 the sanctuaryH4720.
22‘And on the secondH8145 dayH3117 you shall offerH7126 a 29maleH8163 goatH5795 withoutH8549 blemishH8549 as a sinH2403 offeringH2403, and they shall 30cleanseH2398 the altarH4196 fromH2398 sinH2398 as they cleansedH2398 it with the bullH6499. 23When you have finishedH3615 cleansingH2398 it, you shall offerH7126 a 3132bullH6499H1121H1241 withoutH8549 blemishH8549 and a 33ramH352 withoutH8549 blemishH8549 from the flockH6629. 24You shall offerH7126 them beforeH6440 the LordH3068, and the priestsH3548 shall throwH7993 34saltH4417 on them, and they shall offerH5927 them upH5927 as a burntH5930 offeringH5930 to the LordH3068. 2535For sevenH7651 daysH3117 you shall prepareH6213 a goatH8163 as a sinH2403 offeringH2403 dailyH3117; also a 36bullH6499H1121H1241 and a ramH352 from the flockH6629, both withoutH8549 blemishH8549, shall be preparedH6213. 26For sevenH7651 daysH3117 they shall makeH3722 atonementH3722 for the altarH4196 and purifyH2891 it; so shall they 37consecrateH4390H3027 it. 27When they have completedH3615 the daysH3117, it shall be that on the 38eighthH8066 dayH3117 and onwardH1973, the priestsH3548 shall 39offerH6213 your burntH5930 offeringsH5930 on the altarH4196, and your 40peaceH8002 offeringsH8002; and I will 41acceptH7521 you,’ declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068.”
