20 “And when he has made an end of (A)atoning for the Holy Place and the tent of meeting and the altar, he shall present the live goat. 21 And Aaron shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, and confess over it all the iniquities of the people of Israel, and all their transgressions, all their sins. And he shall (B)put them on the head of the goat and send it away into the wilderness by the hand of a man who is in readiness. 22 The goat shall (C)bear all their iniquities on itself to a remote area, and (D)he shall let the goat go free in the wilderness.

23 “Then Aaron shall come into the tent of meeting and (E)shall take off the linen garments that he put on when he went into the Holy Place and shall leave them there. 24 And he shall bathe his body in water in a holy place and put on his garments and come out and (F)offer his burnt offering and the burnt offering of the people and make atonement for himself and for the people.
