But Aaron shall put a propitiatory-covering upon the horns thereof, once in the year: of the blood of the sin-bearer for propitiatory-coverings, once in the year, shall he put a propitiatory-covering thereupon to your generations, most holy, it is to Yahweh.


And Yahweh said unto Moses - Speak unto Aaron thy brother, that he do not come at all times into the holy place, within the veil, - into the presence of the propitiatory, which is upon the ark, so shall he not die, for, in the cloud, will I appear upon the propitiatory. Herewith, shall Aaron come into the holy place, - With a bullock the choice of the herd as a sin-bearer, and a ram as an ascending-sacrifice. A holy tunic of linen, shall he put on and drawers of linen, shall be upon his flesh, and with a band of linen, shall he gird himself, and with a turban of linen, shall his head be wrapped about, - holy garments, they are, therefore shall he bathe in water his flesh, and so put them on. read more.
And, from the assembly of the sons of Israel, shall he receive two he-goats, for bearing sin, - and one ram, as an ascending-sacrifice. Then shall Aaron bring near the sin-bearing bullock which is for himself, - and put a propitiatory-covering about himself, and about his household. Then shall he take the two goats, - and cause them to stand before Yahweh, at the entrance of the tent of meeting. And Aaron shall cast lots over the two goats, - one lot for Yahweh, and one lot for Azazel. Then shall Aaron bring near the goat over which came up the lot for Yahweh, - and shall make of hint a sin-bearer; but, the goat over which came up the lot for Azazel, shall he cause to stand alive - before Yahweh to put a propitiatory-covering over him, - to send him away unto Azazel, towards the desert. So Aaron shall bring near the sin-bearing bullock which is for himself, and shall put a propitiatory-covering about himself, and about his household, - and shall slay the sin-bearing bullock which is for himself; and shall take the censer-full of burning coals of fire from off the altar from before Yahweh, and his hands full of fragrant incense, beaten small, - and bring within the veil; and shall put the incense upon the fire before Yahweh, - and the cloud of incense shall cover the propitiatory which is over the testimony, and he shall not die. Then shall he take of the blood of the bullock, and shall sprinkle with iris finger upon the face of the propitiatory, eastwards, - and before the propitiatory, shall he sprinkle seven times, of the blood, with his finger. Then shall he slay the sin-bearing goat which is for the people, and bring in its blood, within the veil, - and do with its blood, as he did to the blood of the bullock, and shall sprinkle it, upon the propitiatory and before the propitiatory: so shall he put a propitiatory-covering, over the holy place because of the uncleanness of the sons of Israel, and because of their transgressions to the extent of all their sins, - and, so, shall he do for the tent of meeting which abideth with them, in the midst of their uncleanness. And no human being, shall be in the tent of meeting, when he cometh in to make a covering by propitiation in the holy place, until he goeth out, - so shall he put a propitiatory-covering about himself and about his household and about all the convocation of Israel. Then shall he go out unto the altar which is before Yahweh and shall put a propitiatory-covering thereupon, - and shall take of the blood of the bullock, and of the blood of the goat, and put upon the horns of the altar, round about; and shall sprinkle upon it, of the blood with his finger seven times, - and shall cleanse it and hallow it, from the uncleannesses of the sons of Israel. And, when he hath made an end of covering by propitiation the holy place, and the tent of meeting, and the altar, then shall he bring near the living goat. And Aaron shall lean his two hands upon the head of the living goat, and confess over him, all the iniquities of the sons of Israel, and all their transgressions, to the extent of all their sins, - and shall put them upon the head of the goat, and then send him away, by the hand of a man appointed towards the desert: so shall the goat hear upon him all their iniquities into a lone land, - and he shall set the goat free, in the desert. Then shall Aaron come into the tent of meeting, and put off the linen garments which he put on when he came into the holy place, - and shall leave them there; and shall bathe his flesh in water in a holy place, and put on his other garments, - and go forth, and offer his own ascending-sacrifice, and the ascending-sacrifice of the people, so shall he put a propitiatory-covering about himself, and about the people; and, with the fat of the sin-bearer, shall he make a perfume at the altar. And he that sent away the goat unto Azazel, shall wash - his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, - and, after that, shall he come into the camp. And the, sin-bearing bullock, and the sin-bearing goat whose blood was brought in to make a propitiatory-covering in the holy place, shall be carried forth outside the camp, - and they shall burn up, in fire, their skins and their flesh, and their dung; and he that hath burned them, shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, - and, after that, shall he come into the camp. And it shall become unto you, a statute age-abiding, - In the seventh month on the tenth of the month, Shall ye humble you souls And, no work, shall ye do, The home-born, Or the sojourner that sojourneth in your midst; For on this day, shall a propitiatory-covering, be put over you, to cleanse you, - From all your sins before Yahweh, shall ye be clean. A sabbath of sacred rest, it is unto you, Therefore shall ye humble your souls, A statute age-abiding. Therefore shall the priest who shall be anointed, and installed, to minister as priest in the stead of his father make propitiation, - So then he shall put on the linen garments the holy garments; And make propitiation for the holy sanctuary, And for the tent of meeting, and for the altar, shall he make propitiation, - Over the priests also and over all the people of the convocation, shall he put a covering by propitiation. So shall this become unto you an age-abiding statute, - to put a propitiatory-covering over the sons of Israel because of all their sins, Once in the year. And he did, As Yahweh commanded Moses.

Surely on the tenth of this seventh month, is, the Day of Propitiation, a holy convocation, shall it be to you, therefore shall ye humble your souls, - and bring near an altar-flame unto Yahweh. And, no work, shall ye do, on this selfsame day, - for a day of propitiation, it is, to put a propitiatory-covering over you before Yahweh your God. For, whosoever be the person that shall not be humbled on this selfsame day, then shall he be cut off from among his kinsfolk. read more.
And, whosoever be the person that shall do any work on this selfsame day, then will I destroy that person from the midst of his people. No work, shall ye do, - an age-abiding statute to your generations, in all your dwellings. A sabbath of sacred rest, shall it be unto you, so shall ye humble your souls, - on the ninth of the month in the evening, from evening to evening, shall ye keep your sabbath.

And on the tenth of this seventh month, a holy convocation, shall there be unto you, - when ye shall humble your souls, - no work, shall ye do; but ye shall bring near, as an ascending-sacrifice unto Yahweh a satisfying odour, one choice bullock one ram, - seven he-lambs a year old, without defect, shall they be for you; and, as their meal-offering, fine meal overflowed with oil, - three-tenths to a bullock, two-tenths to the one ram; read more.

And, when a considerable time had passed, and sailing was already dangerous, because, even the Fast, had already gone by, Paul began to advise,

And, for this cause, is he obliged - as for the people, so also, for himself, - to be offering for sins;

For, when every commandment according to the law had been spoken by Moses unto all the people, taking the blood of the calves and the goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, both, the scroll itself, and all the people, he sprinkled;



When he saw that there was no mighty man, Then was he astonished that there was none to interpose, - So his own arm brought him salvation, And his own righteousness, the same, upheld him;




For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the profaned, halloweth unto the purity of the flesh,

For, when every commandment according to the law had been spoken by Moses unto all the people, taking the blood of the calves and the goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, both, the scroll itself, and all the people, he sprinkled; Saying - This, is the blood of the covenant which, God, hath sent in command unto you: Yea, the tent also, and all the utensils of the public ministry, with blood, in like manner, he sprinkled: read more.
And, nearly, all things, with blood, are purified, according to the law, and, apart from blood-shedding, cometh no remission.




Now, these things having been thus prepared, into the first tent, indeed, continually do the priests enter, the divine services completing; But, into the second, once for all in the year, only the high-priest, not without blood, which he offered for himself and the ignorances of the people: The Holy Spirit making this evident - that, not yet, hath been manifested, the way through the Holy place, so long as the first tent hath a standing. read more.
The which is a similitude for the present season, according to which both gifts and sacrifices are offered, which cannot, as to the conscience, perfect him that rendereth the divine service: - Only as to eatings, and drinkings, and diversified immersions, - righteous-appointments of the flesh, which, until a season of rectifying, are in force. But, when Christ approached, as high-priest of the coming good things, through the greater and more perfect tent, not made by hand, that is, not of this creation, - Nor yet through blood of goats and calves, but through his own blood he entered once for all into the Holy place, age-abiding redemption discovering. For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the profaned, halloweth unto the purity of the flesh, How much rather shall the blood of the Christ, who through an age-abiding spirit offered himself unspotted unto God, purify our conscience from dead works, to the rendering of divine-service, unto a Living God? And, for this cause, of a new covenant, is he mediator, - to the end that, death coming to pass for the redemption of the transgressions against the first covenant, the called might receive the promise of the age-abiding inheritance; For, where a covenant is, it is necessary for, the death, to be brought in, of him that hath covenanted; For, a covenant over dead persons, is firm, - since it is not then of force when he is living that hath covenanted. Whence, not even the first, apart from blood, hath been consecrated; For, when every commandment according to the law had been spoken by Moses unto all the people, taking the blood of the calves and the goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, both, the scroll itself, and all the people, he sprinkled; Saying - This, is the blood of the covenant which, God, hath sent in command unto you: Yea, the tent also, and all the utensils of the public ministry, with blood, in like manner, he sprinkled: And, nearly, all things, with blood, are purified, according to the law, and, apart from blood-shedding, cometh no remission. It was indeed therefore necessary for the glimpses of the things in the heavens with these to be purified; but, the heavenly things themselves, with better sacrifices than these. For, not into a Holy place made by hand, entered Christ, - counterpart of the real Holy place ; but, into the heaven itself, now, to be plainly manifested before the face of God in our behalf; - Nor yet that, ofttimes, he should be offering himself, - just as the high-priest entereth into the Holy place, year by year, with alien blood; - Else had it been needful for him, ofttimes, to suffer, from the foundation of the world; but, now, once for all, upon a conjunction of the ages, for a setting aside of sin through means of his sacrifice, hath he been made manifest; And, inasmuch as it is in store for men - once for all to die, but after this, judgment, Thus, the Christ also, once for all having been offered, for the bearing of the sins, of many, a second time, apart from sin, will appear, to them who for him are ardently waiting - unto salvation.

And Aaron shall lean his two hands upon the head of the living goat, and confess over him, all the iniquities of the sons of Israel, and all their transgressions, to the extent of all their sins, - and shall put them upon the head of the goat, and then send him away, by the hand of a man appointed towards the desert:


Purge ye out the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, - even as ye are unleavened; for, our passover, hath even been sacrificed - Christ:

For, in the case of those living creatures, whose blood for sins is carried into the holy place, through means of the high-priest, the bodies of these, are burned up, outside the camp. Wherefore, Jesus also, that he might hallow the people through means of his own blood, outside the gate, suffered: Now, therefore, let us be going forth unto him, outside the camp, his reproach bearing.

And, every priest, indeed, standeth daily publicly ministering, and the same sacrifices ofttimes offering, the which never can clear away sins; But this priest, having offered one sacrifice for sins evermore, sat down on the right hand of God:

And I saw, in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, a Lamb, standing, showing that it had been slain, - having seven horns, and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.

For the law, having in a shadow of the destined good things, not the very image of the things, they can never, with the same sacrifices which year by year they offer evermore, make them who approach, perfect; Else would they not, in that case, have ceased being offered, by reason of those rendering the divine service having no further conscience at all of sins, being once for all purified? But, in them, is a recalling to mind of sins, year by year, read more.

Wherefore, coming into the world, he saith: Sacrifice and offering, thou willedst not, but, a body, hast thou fitted for me, - In whole-burnt-offerings and sacrifices for sins, thou didst not delight: Then, said I - Lo! I am come, - in the heading of the scroll, it is written concerning me, - to do, O God, thy will. Higher up, saying - Sacrifices, and offerings, and whole-burnt-offerings, and sacrifices for sins, thou willedst not, neither delightedst in, - the which, according to the law, are offered, Then, hath he said - Lo! I am come! to do, thy will: - he taketh away the first, that, the second, he may establish: By which will, we have been made holy, through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ, once for all. And, every priest, indeed, standeth daily publicly ministering, and the same sacrifices ofttimes offering, the which never can clear away sins; But this priest, having offered one sacrifice for sins evermore, sat down on the right hand of God: As for the rest, waiting - until his foes be made his footstool; For, by one offering, hath he perfected for evermore, them who are being made holy.

Of the travail of his soul, shall he see He shall be satisfied with his knowledge, A setting right when set right himself, shall my Servant win for the Many, Since of their iniquities, he, taketh the burden. Therefore, will I give him a portion in the great, And the strong, shall he apportion as spoil, Because he poured out, to death his own soul, And with transgressors, let himself be numbered, - Yea, he, the sin of Many, bare, And for transgressors, interposeth.

I am come! to do, thy will: - he taketh away the first, that, the second, he may establish: By which will, we have been made holy, through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ, once for all.
