亚郎的两个儿子,因擅自走近上主面前而遭受死亡;他们死后,上主训示梅瑟

对他这样说:"你告诉你的哥哥亚郎,不可随时进入帐幔后的圣所,到约柜上的赎罪盖前去,免得在我乘云显现在赎罪盖上时,遭受死亡。
3OnlyinthiswaymayAaronenterthesanctuary.Heshallbringayoungbullockforasinofferingandaramforaholocaust.
亚郎应这样进入圣所:带上一只公牛犊作赎罪祭,一只公绵羊作全燔祭;

应穿上亚麻圣长衣,身着亚麻短裤,束上亚麻腰带,戴上亚麻头巾;这些都是圣衣,他用水洗身后才能穿上。

此外,还应由以色列子民会众,取两只公山羊作赎罪祭,一只公绵羊作全燔祭。
6"Aaronshallbringinthebullock,hissinofferingtoatoneforhimselfandforhishousehold.
亚郎先要奉献为自己作赎罪祭的公牛犊,替自己和家人赎罪;

以后牵那两只公山羊来,放在会幕门口上主面前,

亚郎将那为上主抽到的公山羊,献作赎罪祭;

至于那为"阿匝则耳"抽到的公山羊,应让它活着,立在上主面前,用它行赎罪礼,放入旷野,归于"阿匝则耳。"
11"ThusshallAaronofferupthebullock,hissinoffering,toatoneforhimselfandforhisfamily.Whenhehasslaughteredit,
于是亚郎先奉献为自己作赎罪祭的公牛犊,替自己和家人赎罪,宰杀为自己作赎罪祭的公牛犊;

以后,取些牛血,用手指洒在赎罪盖东面;又用手指在赎罪盖前,洒血七次。
15"Thenheshallslaughterthepeople'ssin-offeringgoat,andbringingitsbloodinsidetheveil,heshalldowithitashedidwiththebullock'sblood,sprinklingitonthepropitiatoryandbeforeit.
此后,宰杀了为人民作赎罪祭的公山羊,将羊血带进帐幔内,照洒牛血的方式,将羊血洒在赎罪盖上和赎罪盖的前面,
16ThusheshallmakeatonementforthesanctuarybecauseofallthesinfuldefilementsandfaultsoftheIsraelites.Heshalldothesameforthemeetingtent,whichissetupamongtheminthemidstoftheiruncleanness.
为以色列子民的不洁,和他们犯的种种罪过,给圣所取洁;给存留在他们中,为他们不洁玷污的会幕,也举行同样的礼仪。

当他走近圣所行赎罪礼时,直到他出来,任何人不许在会幕内。几时他为自己,为家人,为以色列全会众赎罪完毕,

再用手指向祭坛洒血七次:这样使祭坛免于以色列子民的不洁,而获洁净和祝圣。

为圣所、会幕及祭坛行完取洁礼后,便将那只活公山羊牵来,

这羊负着他们的种种罪恶到了荒野地方,那人应在旷野里释放这只羊。

然后亚郎进入会幕,脱下他进入圣所时穿的亚麻衣服,放在那里,
