Leviticus 16:19-30 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

19. He is to sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and consecrate it from the uncleanness of Bnei-Yisrael.

20. “When he has finished atoning for the Holy Place, the Tent of Meeting and the altar, then he is to present the live goat.

21. Aaron should lay both his hands on the head of the live goat and confess over it all the iniquities of Bnei-Yisrael and all their transgressions, all their sins. He should place them on the head of the goat and send it away into the wilderness by the hand of a man who is in readiness.

22. The goat will carry all their iniquities by itself into a solitary land and he is to leave the goat in the wilderness.

23. “Then Aaron is to come into the Tent of Meeting, take off the linen garments that he put on when he went into the Holy Place, and leave them there.

24. He is to bathe himself with water in a holy place, put on his garments, and come out to offer his burnt offering and the burnt offering of the people, to make atonement for himself and for the people.

25. “Then he is to burn up fat of the sin offering in smoke on the altar.

26. The man who leaves the goat as a scapegoat is to wash his clothes and bathe his body in water. Afterward he may 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, and their hides, their flesh, and their dung burned with fire.

28. The one who burns them is to wash his clothes and bathe his body in water. Then afterward he may come into the camp.

29. “It is to be a statute to you forever, that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you are to afflict your souls, and do no kind of work—both the native-born and the outsider dwelling among you.

30. For on this day atonement will be made for you, to cleanse you. From all your sins you will be clean before Adonai.
