EasyEnglish Bible

A goat will carry away all the bad things that the people have done

²⁰ Aaron must first atone for the Most Holy Place, the Tent of meeting and the altar. Then he must bring the goat that is alive. ²¹ He must put his hands on the goat's head. He must speak aloud all the bad things that Israel's people have done. Then all the bad things will be on the goat's head. Aaron must tell a man that he must send the goat away into the desert. ²² The goat will carry all the sins of the people into the desert. The man must send it away into the desert.
