Leviticus 16:5–19

⁵And he shall take of ^hthe congregation of the children of Israel two kids of the goats for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering. ⁶And Aaron shall offer his bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make an atonement ⁱfor himself, and for his house. ⁷And he shall take the two goats, and present them before the Lord at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. ⁸And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for the Lord, and the other lot for the ^†scapegoat. ⁹And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the Lord’s lot ^†fell, and offer him for a sin offering. ¹⁰But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before the Lord, to make an atonement with him, and to let him go for a scapegoat into the wilderness. ¹¹And Aaron shall bring ^kthe bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and shall make an atonement for himself, and for his house, and shall kill the bullock of the sin offering which is for himself: ¹²And he shall take ^la censer full of burning coals of fire from off the altar before the Lord, and his hands full of ^msweet incense beaten small, and bring it within the vail: ¹³ⁿAnd he shall put the incense upon the fire before the Lord, that the cloud of the incense may cover the ^omercy seat that is upon the testimony, that he die not: ¹⁴And ^phe shall take of the blood of the bullock, and ^qsprinkle it with his finger upon the mercy seat eastward; and before the mercy seat shall he sprinkle of the blood with his finger seven times. ^15rThen shall he kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the people, and bring his blood ^swithin the vail, and do with that blood as he did with the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it upon the mercy seat, and before the mercy seat: ¹⁶And he shall ^tmake an atonement for the holy place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions in all their sins: and so shall he do for the tabernacle of the congregation, that ^†remaineth among them in the midst of their uncleanness. ^17uAnd there shall be no man in the tabernacle of the congregation when he goeth in to make an atonement in the holy place, until he come out, and have made an atonement for himself, and for his household, and for all the congregation of Israel. ¹⁸And he shall go out unto the altar that is before the Lord, and ^xmake an atonement for it; and shall take of the blood of the bullock, and of the blood of the goat, and put it upon the horns of the altar round about. ¹⁹And he shall sprinkle of the blood upon it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and hallow it from the uncleanness of the children of Israel.
