Leviticus 16
Geneva Bible 1599
1Fvrthermore the Lord spake vnto Moses, after the death of the two sonnes of Aaron, whe they came to offer before the Lord, and dyed:
2And the Lord sayd vnto Moses, Speake vnto Aaron thy brother, that he come not at all times into the Holy place within the vayle, before the Merciseate, which is vpon the Arke, that he dye not: for I wil appeare in the cloude vpon the Merciseate.
3After this sort shall Aaron come into the Holy place: euen with a yong bullocke for a sinne offring, and a ramme for a burnt offring.
4He shall put on the holy linnen coate, and shall haue linnen breeches vpon his flesh, and shall be girded with a linnen girdle, and shall couer his head with a linnen miter: these are the holy garments: therefore shall hee wash his flesh in water, when he doeth put them on.
5And hee shall take of the Congregation of the children of Israel, two hee goates for a sinne offring, and a ramme for a burnt offring.
6Then Aaron shall offer the bullocke for his sinne offring, and make an atonement for himselfe, and for his house.
7And he shall take the two hee goates, and present them before the Lord at the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation.
8Then Aaron shall cast lots ouer the two hee goates: one lot for the Lord, and the other for the Scape goate.
9And Aaron shall offer the goat, vpon which the Lords lot shall fal, and make him a sinne offring.
10But the goate, on which the lot shall fall to be the Scape goate, shalbe presented aliue before the Lord, to make reconciliation by him, and to let him go (as a Scape goate) into the wildernes.
