²⁴ He is to lay his hand on the goat’s head and slaughter it at the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered before the Lord.^(A) It is a sin offering.^(B)

¹⁰ Once a year^(A) Aaron shall make atonement^(B) on its horns. This annual atonement must be made with the blood of the atoning sin offering^[a](C) for the generations to come.^(D) It is most holy to the Lord.”

⁶ As a penalty for the sin they have committed, they must bring to the Lord a female lamb or goat^(A) from the flock as a sin offering^[a];^(B) and the priest shall make atonement^(C) for them for their sin.

⁷ “‘Anyone who cannot afford^(D) a lamb^(E) is to bring two doves or two young pigeons^(F) to the Lord as a penalty for their sin—one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering. ⁸ They are to bring them to the priest, who shall first offer the one for the sin offering. He is to wring its head from its neck,^(G) not dividing it completely,^{(H) 9} and is to splash^(I) some of the blood of the sin offering against the side of the altar;^(J) the rest of the blood must be drained out at the base of the altar.^(K) It is a sin offering. ¹⁰ The priest shall then offer the other as a burnt offering in the prescribed way^(L) and make atonement^(M) for them for the sin they have committed, and they will be forgiven.^(N)

¹¹ “‘If, however, they cannot afford^(O) two doves or two young pigeons,^(P) they are to bring as an offering for their sin a tenth of an ephah^[b](Q) of the finest flour^(R) for a sin offering. They must not put olive oil or incense on it, because it is a sin offering. ¹² They are to bring it to the priest, who shall take a handful of it as a memorial^[c] portion^(S) and burn it on the altar^(T) on top of the food offerings presented to the Lord. It is a sin offering. ¹³ In this way the priest will make atonement^(U) for them for any of these sins they have committed, and they will be forgiven. The rest of the offering will belong to the priest,^(V) as in the case of the grain offering.^(W)’”

² He said to Aaron, “Take a bull calf for your sin offering^[a] and a ram for your burnt offering, both without defect, and present them before the Lord. ³ Then say to the Israelites: ‘Take a male goat^(A) for a sin offering,^(B) a calf^(C) and a lamb^(D)—both a year old and without defect—for a burnt offering, ⁴ and an ox^[b](E) and a ram for a fellowship offering^(F) to sacrifice before the Lord, together with a grain offering mixed with olive oil. For today the Lord will appear to you.^(G)’”

⁵ They took the things Moses commanded to the front of the tent of meeting, and the entire assembly came near and stood before the Lord. ⁶ Then Moses said, “This is what the Lord has commanded you to do, so that the glory of the Lord^(H) may appear to you.”

⁷ Moses said to Aaron, “Come to the altar and sacrifice your sin offering and your burnt offering and make atonement for yourself and the people;^(I) sacrifice the offering that is for the people and make atonement for them, as the Lord has commanded.^(J)”

⁸ So Aaron came to the altar and slaughtered the calf as a sin offering^(K) for himself. ⁹ His sons brought the blood to him,^(L) and he dipped his finger into the blood and put it on the horns of the altar; the rest of the blood he poured out at the base of the altar.^{(M) 10} On the altar he burned the fat, the kidneys and the long lobe of the liver from the sin offering, as the Lord commanded Moses; ¹¹ the flesh and the hide^(N) he burned up outside the camp.^(O)

¹² Then he slaughtered the burnt offering.^(P) His sons handed him the blood,^(Q) and he splashed it against the sides of the altar. ¹³ They handed him the burnt offering piece by piece, including the head, and he burned them on the altar.^{(R) 14} He washed the internal organs and the legs and burned them on top of the burnt offering on the altar.^(S)

¹⁵ Aaron then brought the offering that was for the people.^(T) He took the goat for the people’s sin offering and slaughtered it and offered it for a sin offering as he did with the first one.

¹⁶ He brought the burnt offering and offered it in the prescribed way.^{(U) 17} He also brought the grain offering, took a handful of it and burned it on the altar in addition to the morning’s burnt offering.^(V)

¹⁸ He slaughtered the ox and the ram as the fellowship offering for the people.^(W) His sons handed him the blood, and he splashed it against the sides of the altar. ¹⁹ But the fat portions of the ox and the ram—the fat tail, the layer of fat, the kidneys and the long lobe of the liver— ²⁰ these they laid on the breasts, and then Aaron burned the fat on the altar. ²¹ Aaron waved the breasts and the right thigh before the Lord as a wave offering,^(X) as Moses commanded.

²² Then Aaron lifted his hands toward the people and blessed them.^(Y) And having sacrificed the sin offering, the burnt offering and the fellowship offering, he stepped down.

¹³ The blood of goats and bulls^(A) and the ashes of a heifer^(B) sprinkled on those who are ceremonially unclean sanctify them so that they are outwardly clean. ¹⁴ How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit^(C) offered himself^(D) unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences^(E) from acts that lead to death,^[a](F) so that we may serve the living God!^(G)
