15 “And he shall slaughter the sin offering’s goat, which is for the people, and he shall bring its blood from behind[e] the curtain, and he shall do with its blood as that which he did with[f] the bull’s blood, and he shall spatter it on the atonement cover and before[g] the atonement cover. 16 Thus[h] he shall make atonement for the sanctuary from the Israelites[i] impurities and from their transgressions for all their sins; and so he must do for the tent of assembly, which dwells with them in the midst of their impurities.

14 He is to take some of the bull’s blood(A) and with his finger sprinkle it on the front of the atonement cover; then he shall sprinkle some of it with his finger seven times before the atonement cover.(B)

15 “He shall then slaughter the goat for the sin offering for the people(C) and take its blood behind the curtain(D) and do with it as he did with the bull’s blood: He shall sprinkle(E) it on the atonement cover and in front of it. 16 In this way he will make atonement(F) for the Most Holy Place(G) because of the uncleanness and rebellion of the Israelites, whatever their sins have been.
