2 Chronicles 29:21-23
1599 Geneva Bible
21 And they brought seven bullocks, and seven rams, and seven lambs, and seven he goats for a (A)sin offering for the kingdom, and for the sanctuary, and for Judah. And he commanded the Priests the sons of Aaron, to offer them on the altar of the Lord.
22 So they slew the bullocks, and the Priests received the blood, and [a]sprinkled it upon the altar: they slew also the rams, and sprinkled the blood upon the altar, and they slew the lambs, and they sprinkled the blood upon the altar.
23 Then they brought the he goats for the sin offering before the king and the Congregation, [b]and they laid their hands upon them.
