043:022 On the second day you shall offer a male goat without blemish
for a sin offering; and they shall cleanse the altar,
as they did cleanse it with the bull.
043:023 When you have made an end of cleansing it, you shall offer a young
bull without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish.
043:024 You shall bring them near before Yahweh, and the priests shall
cast salt on them, and they shall offer them up for a burnt
offering to Yahweh.
043:025 Seven days shall you prepare every day a goat for a sin offering:
they shall also prepare a young bull, and a ram out of
the flock, without blemish.
043:026 Seven days shall they make atonement for the altar and purify it;
so shall they consecrate it.
043:027 When they have accomplished the days, it shall be that on
the eighth day, and forward, the priests shall make your
burnt offerings on the altar, and your peace offerings;
and I will accept you, says the Lord Yahweh.
044:001 Then he brought me back by the way of the outer gate of the sanctuary,
which looks toward the east; and it was shut.
