When the sin that he committed is disclosed to him, he is to bring his offering for his sin that he had committed: a female goat without defect.

Now Moses diligently sought for the goat that had been offered as a sin offering, but it had already been incinerated, so he was angry with Aaron's sons who remained. He asked Eleazar and Ithamar,

You may eat any animal that has divided hooves with cloven feet and that ruminates its cud,

except you are not to eat the following animals that have divided hooves or ruminate their cud: the camel (because it chews the cud but doesn't have divided hooves, it is to be unclean for you),

the rock badger (because it chews its cud but its hooves aren't divided, it is to be unclean for you),

the hare (because it chews its cud, but its hooves aren't divided, it is to be unclean for you),

and the pig (because it has divided hooves and is therefore cloven-footed, but it doesn't ruminate its cud, it is to be unclean for you).

red kite, falcons of any kind,

"Any animal that has divided hooves and is cloven-footed but doesn't chew the cud is unclean for you. Anyone who touches them is unclean.

When he goes to the altar in the LORD's presence to make atonement for himself, he is to take some of the blood from the bull and the male goat, place it around the horns of the altar,

"When he has completed making atonement at the sacred place, the Tent of Meeting, and the altar, then he is to present the live male goat.

Aaron is to lay his two hands upon the head of the male goat and confess over it the sins of Israel, all their transgressions, and all their sins, thus placing them on the head of the male goat that he'll then send out to the wilderness by the hand of a man capable of carrying out this task.

The male goat will bear on itself all their sins to a solitary land as Aaron sends the goat out to the wilderness.

The one who sent away the male goat as a scapegoat is to wash his clothes and bathe his body with water. After doing so, he may enter the camp.

"The bull for the sin offering and the male goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought into the sacred place, are to be taken outside the camp. Their skin, meat, and offal are to be incinerated.
