Leviticus 16:3-10 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

3. “Before Aaron enters the Most Holy Place, he will offer a bull for a sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering.

4. Aaron will wash his whole body with water and put on the special clothes. He will put on the linen underwear next to his body, the linen robe, the linen belt, and then he will put the linen turban on his head.

5. “From the whole community of Israel, Aaron will accept two male goats for a sin offering and one ram for a burnt offering.

6. Then he will offer the bull for the sin offering. This sin offering is for himself. He will do this to purify himself and his family.

7. “Then Aaron will take the two goats and bring them before the Lord at the doorway of the Meeting Tent.

8. Aaron will throw lots for the two goats. One lot will be for the Lord. The other lot will be for Azazel.

9. “Then Aaron will offer the goat chosen by the lot for the Lord. Aaron will make this goat a sin offering.

10. But the goat chosen by the lot for Azazel will be brought alive before the Lord. Then this goat will be sent out to Azazel in the desert. This is to make the people pure.
