Leviticus 16:1-6 ▼

1 And YHWH spoke to Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they drew near before the face of YHWH, and they died.

2 And YHWH said to Moses, “Speak to Aaron your brother, and he shall not come in at any time to the Holy Place inside the veil before the face of the mercy seat that is on the ark, and he will not die. For in the cloud I appear above the mercy seat.

3 In this way Aaron shall come to the Holy Place; with a bull, a son of the herd, for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering.

4 And he shall put on the holy linen tunic, and the linen undergarments he shall have on his flesh, and he shall gird himself with a linen sash, and he shall wrap himself with the linen turban; these are holy garments. And he shall bathe his flesh in the water, and he shall put them on.

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

6 And Aaron shall bring near the bull of the sin offering, which is for himself, and he shall make atonement on behalf of himself, and on behalf of his house.
