16:29 And this shall be a statute for ever unto you: that in the seventh
month, on the tenth day of the month, ye shall afflict your souls, and
do no work at all, whether it be one of your own country, or a stranger
that sojourneth among you:
16:30 For on that day shall the priest make an atonement for you, to
cleanse you, that ye may be clean from all your sins before the LORD.
16:31 It shall be a sabbath of rest unto you, and ye shall afflict your
souls, by a statute for ever.
16:32 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:
16:33 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.
16:34 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.
17:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
17:2 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,
17:3 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,
17:4 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:
17:5 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.
17:6 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.
17:7 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.
17:8 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,
17:9 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.
17:10 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.
