25. The fat of the sin offering he shall burn on the altar.

26. He who releases the goat as the scapegoat shall wash his clothes, and bathe his body in water, and afterward come into the camp.

27. The bull for the sin offering and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the Holy Place, shall be carried outside the camp. They shall burn in the fire their hides, their flesh, and their refuse.

28. He who burns them shall wash his clothes, and bathe his body in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp.

29. This shall be a perpetual statute for you so that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall humble yourselves, and do no work of any kind, whether it is the native citizen or the stranger who sojourns among you.

30. For on that day the priest shall make atonement for you to cleanse you, so that you may be clean from all your sins before the Lord.

31. It shall be a sabbath, a solemn rest for you, and you shall humble yourselves. It is a perpetual statute.
