goat, upon which the lot of the unborn goat shall fall, he shall present alive before the LORD, to make an atonement for him: and he shall send the unborn goat into the wilderness.

And he shall bring the bullock of his sin offering, and make an atonement for himself and for his house, and shall kill it.

And he shall take a vial of fire from off the altar that is before the LORD, and a handful of pounded incense, and put it behind the vail;

And put the incense upon the fire before the LORD, that the mist of the incense may cover the mercy seat, which is upon the testimony, that he die not.

And he shall take the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it with his finger before the mercy seat: seven times shall he sprinkle of the blood with his finger before the mercy seat.

And afterward he shall kill the goat, the sin offering of the people, and bring in the blood thereof behind the vail, and shall do with the blood thereof as he did with the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it before the mercy seat;

And he shall make an atonement for the sanctuary from the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and from their transgression in all their sins. So shall he do unto the tabernacle of the congregation: for they are unclean that are round about.

No man shall be in the tabernacle of the congregation, when he goeth in to make an atonement in the holy place, until he come out: and he shall make an atonement for himself, and for his house, and for all the congregation of Israel.

And when he goeth forth unto the altar which is before the LORD, he shall make an atonement for it, and take the blood of the bullock, and the blood of the goat, and put them round about upon the horns of the altar.

And he shall sprinkle of the blood thereof with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and sanctify it from the uncleanness of the children of Israel.

And when he hath made an atonement for the sanctuary, and for the tabernacle of the congregation, and for the altar, he shall bring the live goat.

Then Aaron shall lay both his hands upon his head, and confess upon him all the iniquity of the children of Israel, and all their transgression in all their sins; and he shall lay them upon the head of the goat, and cause him to run into the wilderness by a man that is present, 22. That the goat may carry all their iniquities upon him into a wilderness, and leave him in the wilderness.

And Aaron shall go into the tabernacle of the congregation, and put off the linen garments which he put on when he entered into the holy place, and shall leave them there.

And he shall bathe his flesh in water in the holy place, and put on his own garments, and go forth, and offer his burnt offering, and the burnt offering of the people, and make an atonement for himself, and for the people,

And burn the fat of the sin offering upon the altar.

And he that hath brought forth the kid shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and come into the camp.

And the bullock of the sin offering, and the goat of the sin offering, which is brought into the sanctuary to make an atonement for the blood thereof, shall be brought forth without the camp, and burnt with fire, both their skin, and their flesh, and their dung.

And he that burneth them shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and come into the camp afterward.

This also shall be a perpetual statute unto you: On the tenth day of the seventh month ye shall mortify your bodies, and do no work, whether it be native or alien among you.

For in this day is your atonement made, that ye should be cleansed; from all your sins ye are cleansed before the LORD.

Therefore it shall be unto you the greatest sabbath, and ye shall humble your bodies. An everlasting right be this!

And the priest whom he hath ordained, and whose hand he hath filled to be a priest in his father’s stead, shall make reconciliation; and he shall put on the linen garments, even the holy garments.

And he shall make an atonement for the holy sanctuary, and for the tabernacle of the congregation, and for the altar, and for the priests, and for all the people of the congregation.

This shall be a statute for ever unto you, to make reconciliation for the children of Israel from all their sins once in a year: and Moses did as the LORD commanded him.
(Leviticus)
Chapter 17
Place of sacrifice determined blood forbidden to eat.

And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying:

Speak unto Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel, and say unto them: This is that the LORD hath commanded:

Whosoever of the house of Israel shall kill an ox, or a lamb, or a kid, in the camp, or without the camp.

And bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to be offered unto the LORD before the tabernacle of the LORD: he shall be guilty of blood, as he that shed blood: and such a man shall be cut off from among his people.

Therefore the children of Israel shall bring their sacrifices, which they offer in the open field, unto the LORD, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, unto the priest, and there shall they offer their peace offerings unto the LORD.

And the priest shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar of the LORD at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and burn the fat for a sweet savour unto the LORD; 7. And they shall no more offer their sacrifices unto the devils of the field, with whom they commit fornication. This shall be a perpetual statute unto them in their generations.

Therefore thou shalt say unto them, What man there is of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that are among you, that offereth a sacrifice or a burnt offering?

And bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, that he may do it unto the LORD: he shall be cut off from among his people.

And whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, that eateth any blood, against him will I set my face, and will cut him off from among his people.

For the life of the body is in the blood: and I have given it unto you for an altar, to make reconciliation for your souls. For the blood is the propitiation for life.

Therefore I said unto the children of Israel, No soul among you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger that sojourneth among you.

And whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the stranger that sojourneth among you, that catcheth any beast or fowl to hunt, which is eaten, he shall shed the blood thereof, and cover it with earth.

For the life of the body is in his blood all the days of his life: and I said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall eat no flesh’s blood. For the life of the body is in his blood. He that eateth it shall be cut off.

And whatsoever soul eateth a carcase, or that which is torn of the beast, whether he be a native or a stranger, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even; and he shall be clean.

If he wash not his clothes, nor bathe himself, he shall be guilty of his iniquity.
(Leviticus)
Chapter 18
Forbidden degrees of blood friendship in marriage.

And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying:

Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them: I am the LORD your God.

Ye shall not do after the manner of the land of Egypt, wherein ye dwelt, nor after the manner of the land of Canaan, whither I will bring you: neither shall ye do after their manner.

But after one righteousness shall ye do, and my statutes shall ye keep, to walk therein: for I am the LORD your God.

Therefore shall ye keep my statutes, and my judgments. For every man that doeth them shall live thereby: for I am the LORD.

Let no man put himself to his near kinswoman to bare her shame: for I am the LORD.

Thou shalt not put thy sister to shame, which is thy father’s daughter, or thy mother’s daughter, born at home, or born without.

Thou shalt not blush thy son’s shame, nor thy daughter’s shame: for it is thine own shame.

Thou shalt not put to shame the daughter of thy father’s wife, which is born unto thy father, and is thy sister.

Thou shalt not put thy father’s sister to shame: for she is thy father’s near kinswoman.

Thou shalt not put thy mother’s sister to shame: for she is thy mother’s near kinswoman.

Thou shalt not put thy father’s brother to shame, to take his wife: for she is thy cousin.

Thou shalt not bare thy cord: for it is thy son’s wife: therefore thou shalt not bare her shame.

Thou shalt not put thy brother’s wife to shame: for she is thy brother’s shame.

Thou shalt not uncover thy wife’s shame, nor
