New Testament

Leviticus 16:9-13 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

9. The goat that is determined by lot for the Lord, Aaron shall present and offer up as a purification offering.

10. But the goat determined by lot for Azazel he shall place before the Lord alive, so that with it he may make atonement by sending it off to Azazel in the desert.

11. Thus shall Aaron offer his bull for the purification offering, to make atonement for himself and for his family. When he has slaughtered it,

12. he shall take a censer full of glowing embers from the altar before the Lord, as well as a double handful of finely ground fragrant incense, and bringing them inside the veil,

13. there before the Lord he shall put incense on the fire, so that a cloud of incense may shield the cover that is over the covenant, else he will die.
