03:016:031 It shall be a sabbath of rest unto you, and ye shall afflict
your souls, by a statute for ever.
03:016:032 And the priest, whom he shall anoint, and whom he shall
consecrate to minister in the priest's office in his father's stead,
shall make the atonement, and shall put on the linen clothes, even the
holy garments:
03:016:033 And he shall make an atonement for the holy sanctuary, and
he shall make an atonement for the tabernacle of the congregation, and
for the altar, and he shall make an atonement for the priests, and for
all the people of the congregation.
03:016:034 And this shall be an everlasting statute unto you, to make
an atonement for the children of Israel for all their sins once a year.
And he did as the LORD commanded Moses.
03:017:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
03:017:002 Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the
children of Israel, and say unto them; This is the thing which the LORD
hath commanded, saying,
03:017:003 What man soever there be of the house of Israel, that
killeth an ox, or lamb, or goat, in the camp, or that killeth it out of
the camp,
03:017:004 And bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation, to offer an offering unto the LORD before the tabernacle
of the LORD; blood shall be imputed unto that man; he hath shed blood;
and that man shall be cut off from among his people:
03:017:005 To the end that the children of Israel may bring their
sacrifices, which they offer in the open field, even that they may
bring them unto the LORD, unto the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation, unto the priest, and offer them for peace offerings unto
the LORD.
03:017:006 And the priest shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar of
the LORD at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and burn
the fat for a sweet savour unto the LORD.
03:017:007 And they shall no more offer their sacrifices unto devils,
after whom they have gone a whoring. This shall be a statute for ever
unto them throughout their generations.
03:017:008 And thou shalt say unto them, Whatsoever man there be of the
house of Israel, or of the strangers which sojourn among you, that
offereth a burnt offering or sacrifice,
03:017:009 And bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation, to offer it unto the LORD; even that man shall be cut off
from among his people.
03:017:010 And whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of
the strangers that sojourn among you, that eateth any manner of blood;
I will even set my face against that soul that eateth blood, and will
cut him off from among his people.
03:017:011 For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given
it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is
the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.
03:017:012 Therefore I said unto the children of Israel, No soul of you
shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger that sojourneth among you
eat blood.
