3. He may enter the Most Holy Place only after he has brought a young bull for a sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering.”
4. Then the Lord gave the following instructions. Before Aaron goes into the Most Holy Place, he must have a bath and put on the priestly garments: the linen robe and shorts, the belt, and the turban.
5. The community of Israel shall give Aaron two male goats for a sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering.
6. He shall offer a bull as a sacrifice to take away his own sins and those of his family.
7. Then he shall take the two goats to the entrance of the Tent of the Lord's presence.
8. There he shall draw lots, using two stones, one marked “for the Lord” and the other “for Azazel”.
9. Aaron shall sacrifice the goat chosen by lot for the Lord and offer it as a sin offering.
10. The goat chosen for Azazel shall be presented alive to the Lord and sent off into the desert to Azazel, in order to take away the sins of the people.
11. When Aaron sacrifices the bull as the sin offering for himself and his family,
12. he shall take a fire pan full of burning coals from the altar and two handfuls of fine incense and bring them into the Most Holy Place.
13. There in the Lord's presence he shall put the incense on the fire, and the smoke of the incense will hide the lid of the Covenant Box so that he will not see it and die.
14. He shall take some of the bull's blood and with his finger sprinkle it on the front of the lid and then sprinkle some of it seven times in front of the Covenant Box.
15. After that, he shall kill the goat for the sin offering for the people, bring its blood into the Most Holy Place, and sprinkle it on the lid and then in front of the Covenant Box, as he did with the bull's blood.
