These are holy gar. ments: therefore shall he wash his flesh in water, and so put them on. 5 And he shall take of the Congregation of the children of Israel, two kids of the goats for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering. 6 And Aaron shall offer his bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make an atonement for himself, and for his house. 7 And he shall take the two goats, and present them before the LORD at the door of the Tabernacle of the Congregation. 8 And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats: one lot for the LORD, and the other lot for the Scape goat. 9 And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the LORD'S lot fell, and offer him for a sin offering. 10 But the goat on which the lot fell to be the Scape goat, shall be presented alive before the LORD, to make an atonement with him, and to let him go for a Scape goat into the wilderness. A sin offering have made an atonement for himself, and for his household, and for all the Congregation of Israel. 18 And he shall go out unto the Altar that is before the LORD, and make 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. 19 And 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. 20 And when he hath made an end of reconciling the holy place, and the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and the Altar, he shall bring the live goat. 21 And Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat, and con. fess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their trans 11 And Aaron shall bring the bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and shall make an atonement for him-gressions in all their sins, putting them self, and for his house, and shall kill the bullock of the sin offering which is for himself. 12 And he shall take a censer full of burning coals of fire from off the Altar before the LORD, and his hands full of sweet incense beaten small, and bring it within the vail. 13 And he shall put the incense upon the fire before the LORD, that the cloud of the incense may cover the mercy seat that is upon the testimony, that he die not. 14 And he shall take of the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle 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. upon the head of the goat, and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness. 22 And the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities, unto a land not inha bited; and he shall let go the goat in the wilderness. 23 And Aaron shall come into the Ta. bernacle of the Congregation, and shall put off the linen garments which he put on, when he went into the holy place, and shall leave them there. 24 And he shall wash his flesh with water in the holy place, and put on his garments, and come forth, and offer his burnt offering, and the burnt offering of the people, and make an atonement for himself, and for the people. 25 And the fat of the sin offering shall he burn upon the Altar. 26 And he that let go the goat for the Scape-goat, shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward come into the camp. 15 Then shall he kill the goat of the sin offering that is for the people, and bring his blood within 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. 27 And the bullock for the sin offering, 16 And he shall make an atonement and the goat for the sin offering, whose for the holy place, because of the un-blood was brought in, to make atone. cleanness 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. 17 And there shall be no man in the Tabernacle of the Congregation, when ne goeth in to make an atonement in the holy place, until he come out, and ment in the holy place, shall one carry forth without the camp, and they shall burn in the fire their skins and their flesh, and their dung. 28 And he that burneth them, shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp. 29 And this shall be a statute for ever unto you: that in the seventh jor atonement. CHAP. XVII. No blood eaten month, on the tenth day of the month, | blood upon the Altar of the LORD, at ye shall afflict your souls, and do no the door of the Tabernacle of the Conwork at all, whether it be one of your gregation, and burn the fat for a sweet own country, or a stranger that sojourn- savour unto the LORD. eth among you. 30 For on that day shall the Priest make an atonement for you, to cleanse you, that ye may be clean from all your sins before the LORD. 31 It shall be a Sabbath of rest unto you, and ye shall afflict your souls by a statute for ever. 32 And the Priest whom he shall anoint, and whom he shall consecrate to minister in the Priest's office in his father's stead, shall make the atonement, and shall put on the linen clothes, even the holy garments. 33 And he shall make an atonement for the holy Sanctuary, and he shall make an atonement for the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and for the Altar: and he shall make an atonement for the Priests, and for all the people of the Congregation. 34 And this shall be an everlasting statute unto you, to make an atonement for the children of Israel, for all their sins once a year. And he did as the LORD commanded Moses. CHAP. XVII. The blood of all slain beasts must be offered to the Lord. 7 And they shall no more offer their sacrifices unto devils, after whom they have gone a whoring: this 'shall be a statute for ever unto them throughout their generations. 8 And thou shalt say unto them, Whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, that offereth a burnt offer ing or sacrifice, 9 And bringeth it not unto the door of the Tabernacle of the Congregation, to offer it unto the LORD, even that man shall be cut off from among his people. 10 And whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, that eateth any manner of blood, I will even set my face against that soul that eateth blood, and will cut him off from among his people. 11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you upon the Altar, to make an atonement for your souls for it is the blood, that maketh an atonement for the soul. 12 Therefore I said unto the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, AND the LORD spake unto Moses, neither shall any stranger that sojourn saying, 2 Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons, and unto all the children. of Israel, and say unto them; This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded, saying; 3 What man soever there be of the house of Israel, that killeth an ox, or lamb, or goat in the camp, or that kill. eth it out of the camp, 4 And bringeth it not unto the door of the Tabernacle of the Congregation, to offer an offering unto the LORD before the Tabernacle of the LORD, blood shall be imputed unto that man; he hath shed blood, and that man shall be cut off from among his people: 5 To the end that the children of Israel may bring their sacrifices, which they offer in the open field, even that they may bring them unto the LORD, unto the door of the Tabernacle of the Congregation unto the Priest, and offer them for peace offerings unto the LORD. 6 And the Priest shall sprinkle the eth among you eat blood. 13 And whatsoever man there be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, which hunteth and catcheth any beast or fowl that may be eaten, he shall even pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with dust. 14 For it is the life of all flesh, the blood of it is for the life thereof; therefore I said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh for the life of all flesh is the blood thereof: whosoever eateth it, shall be cut off. : Onlawful CHAP.
