Leviticus 16:1-16 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

1. And the Lord spoke unto Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they came near before the Lord and died;

2. and the Lord said unto Moses, Speak unto Aaron, thy brother, that he not enter at all times into the sanctuary inside the veil before the seat of reconciliation, which is upon the ark, that he not die; for I will appear in the cloud above the seat of reconciliation.

3. Thus shall Aaron come into the holy place: with a young bullock as sin and a ram as a burnt offering.

4. He shall put on the holy linen coat, and he shall have the linen underwear upon his flesh and shall be girded with a linen girdle, and with the linen mitre shall he cover himself. These are holy garments; and he shall wash his flesh with water and put them on.

5. And he shall take of the congregation of the sons of Israel two he goats as the sin and one ram as a burnt offering.

6. And Aaron shall cause the bullock of his sin to be brought, and make reconciliation for himself and for his house.

7. After that, he shall take the two goats and present them before the Lord at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony.

8. And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two he goats, one lot for the Lord and the other lot for Azazel. {Heb. entire removal}

9. And Aaron shall cause the he goat upon which the Lord’s lot fell to be brought and offer him for the sin.

10. But the he goat on which the lot fell for Azazel shall be presented alive before the Lord, to make the reconciliation upon him and to send him to Azazel into the wilderness.

11. And Aaron shall cause the bullock of his own sin to be brought and shall make the reconciliation for himself and for his house and shall kill the bullock of his own sin.

12. After that he shall take the censer full of burning coals of fire from off the altar before the Lord and his hands full of aromatic incense beaten small and bring it inside the veil.

13. And he shall put the incense upon the fire before the Lord, and the cloud of the incense shall cover the seat of reconciliation that is upon the testimony, and he shall not die.

14. Then he shall take of the blood of the bullock and sprinkle it with his finger towards the seat of reconciliation eastward; towards the seat of reconciliation he shall sprinkle of the blood with his finger seven times.

15. After that, he shall kill the goat of the sin of the people and bring its blood inside the veil and do with that blood as he did with the blood of the bullock and sprinkle it upon the seat of reconciliation and before the seat of reconciliation;

16. and he shall cleanse the sanctuary of the uncleanness of the sons of Israel and of their rebellions and of all their sins; in the same manner so shall he do for the tabernacle of the testimony, which dwells among them in the midst of their uncleanness.
