Levítico 16

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they came near before Yahweh, and died; 2 and Yahweh said to Moses, "Tell Aaron your brother not to come at just any time into the Most Holy Place within the veil, before the mercy seat which is on the ark; lest he die; for I will appear in the cloud on the mercy seat.

3 "Aaron shall come into the sanctuary with a young bull for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering. 4 He shall put on the holy linen tunic. He shall have the linen trousers on his body, and shall put on the linen sash, and he shall be clothed with the linen turban. They are the holy garments. He shall bathe his body in water, and put them on. 5 He shall take from the congregation of the children of Israel two male goats for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering.

6 "Aaron shall offer the bull of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make atonement for himself and for his house. 7 He shall take the two goats, and set them before Yahweh at the door of the Tent of Meeting. 8 Aaron shall cast lots for the two goats: one lot for Yahweh, and the other lot for the scapegoat. 9 Aaron shall present the goat on which the lot fell for Yahweh, and offer him for a sin offering. 10 But the goat on which the lot fell for the scapegoat shall be presented alive before Yahweh, to make atonement for him, to send him away as the scapegoat into the wilderness.

11 "Aaron shall present the bull of the sin offering, which is for himself, and shall make atonement for himself and for his house, and shall kill the bull of the sin offering which is for himself. 12 He shall take a censer full of coals of fire from off the altar before Yahweh, and two handfuls of sweet incense beaten small, and bring it within the veil. 13 He shall put the incense on the fire before Yahweh, that the cloud of the incense may cover the mercy seat that is on the covenant, so that he will not die. 14 He shall take some of the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it with his finger on the mercy seat on the east; and before the mercy seat he shall sprinkle some of the blood with his finger seven times.

15 "Then he shall kill the goat of the sin offering that is for the people, and bring his blood within the veil, and do with his blood as he did with the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it on the mercy seat and before the mercy seat. 16 He shall make atonement for the Holy Place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions, even all their sins; and so he shall do for the Tent of Meeting that dwells with them in the middle of their uncleanness. 17 No one shall be in the Tent of Meeting when he enters to make atonement in the Holy Place, until he comes out, and has made atonement for himself and for his household, and for all the assembly of Israel.

18 "He shall go out to the altar that is before Yahweh and make atonement for it, and shall take some of the bull’s blood, and some of the goat’s blood, and put it around on the horns of the altar. 19 He shall sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and make it holy from the uncleanness of the children of Israel.

20 "When he has finished atoning for the Holy Place, the Tent of Meeting, and the altar, he shall present the live goat. 21 Aaron shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions, even all their sins; and he shall put them on the head of the goat, and shall send him away into the wilderness by the hand of a man who is ready. 22 The goat shall carry all their iniquities on himself to a solitary land, and he shall release the goat in the wilderness.

23 "Aaron shall come into the Tent of Meeting, and shall take off the linen garments which he put on when he went into the Holy Place, and shall leave them there. 24 Then he shall bathe himself in water in a holy place, put on his garments, and come out and offer his burnt offering and the burnt offering of the people, and make atonement for himself and for the people. 25 The fat of the sin offering he shall burn on the altar.

26 "He who lets the goat go as the scapegoat shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp. 27 The bull for the sin offering, and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the Holy Place, shall be carried outside the camp; and they shall burn their skins, their flesh, and their dung with fire. 28 He who burns them shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp.

29 "It shall be a statute to you forever: in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall afflict your souls, and shall do no kind of work, whether native-born or a stranger who lives as a foreigner among you; 30 for on this day shall atonement be made for you, to cleanse you. You shall be clean from all your sins before Yahweh. 31 It is a Sabbath of solemn rest to you, and you shall afflict your souls. It is a statute forever. 32 The priest, who is anointed and who is consecrated to be priest in his father’s place, shall make the atonement, and shall put on the linen garments, even the holy garments. 33 Then he shall make atonement for the Holy Sanctuary; and he shall make atonement for the Tent of Meeting and for the altar; and he shall make atonement for the priests and for all the people of the assembly.

34 "This shall be an everlasting statute for you, to make atonement for the children of Israel once in the year because of all their sins."

It was done as Yahweh commanded Moses.

Te Rā Whakamārie

1 Ā, i kōrero a Ihowā ki a Mohi i muri i te matenga o ngā tama tokorua a Ārona, i te mea i whakahere nei rāua ki te aroaro o Ihowā, ā mate iho. 2 I kōrero anō a Ihowā ki a Mohi: "Kōrero ki a Ārona, ki tōu tuakana, kei haere i ngā wā katoa ki te wāhi tapu, ki roto i te ārai, i tērā i mua mai o te taupoki o te āka; kei mate; ka puta atu hoki ahau i roto i te kapua ki runga ki te taupoki.

3 "Ko ngā mea tēnei hei haerenga mō Ārona ki roto ki te wāhi tapu: ko te kūao pūru hei whakahere hara, me te hipi toa hei tahunga tinana. 4 Me kākahu e ia te koti rīnena tapu; hei tōna kikokiko ngā tarau rīnena, me whītiki anō ki a ia te whītiki rīnena, me pōtae anō te pōtae rīnena; ko ngā kākahu tapu ēnei; mō reira me horoi e ia tōna kikokiko ki te wai, ka kākahu ai. 5 Nā, ka mau ia ki ētahi koati kia rua a te whakaminenga o ngā tama a i Īharaira hei whakahere hara, kia kotahi hoki te hipi toa hei tahunga tinana.

6 "Ā, ka whakaherea e Ārona tāna pūru mō te whakahere hara, te mea hoki mōna, ā, ka whakamārie mōna, mō tōna whare hoki. 7 Nā, ka mau ia ki ngā koati e rua, ka tāpae ki te aroaro o Ihowā ki te whatitoka o te tapenākara o te whakaminenga. 8 Nā, ka makā he rota e Ārona mō ngā koati e rua, tētahi rota mō tā Ihowā, tētahi rota mō te koati haere noa. 9 Ā, ka kawea mai e Ārona te koati i puta nei tā Ihowā rota ki a ia, ā, ka whakaherea hei whakahere hara. 10 Ko te koati ia i puta nei te rota ki a ia hei koati haere noa, ka tāpaea oratia ki te aroaro o Ihowā, ki te whakamārie mōna, kia tukua ai ki te koraha hei koati haere noa.

11 "Ā, ka kawea e Ārona te pūru mō te whakahere hara, te mea mōna ake, ā, ka whakamārie mōna, mō tōna whare hoki, ā, ka patua te pūru mō te whakahere hara, te mea hoki mōna ake. 12 Nā, ka mau ki te tahu kakara, kī tonu i ngā waro ahi nō runga i te āta, i te aroaro o Ihowā; kia kī hoki ōna ringa i te whakakakara reka, tuki rawa kia ririki, ka kawe ai ki roto i te ārai. 13 Nā, ka maka i te whakakakara ki te ahi ki te aroaro o Ihowā, kia ngaro ai i te kapua whakakakara te taupoki i runga i te whakaaturanga, kei mate hoki ia. 14 Nā, ka tango i tētahi wāhi o te toto o te pūru, ā, ka tāuhiuhia e tōna maihao ki te taupoki ki te taha ki te rāwhiti; kia whitu ngā tāuhiuhinga a tōna maihao i te toto ki te taha ki mua o te taupoki.

15 "Kātahi ka patua e ia te koati o te whakahere hara, te mea mō te iwi, ā, ka kawea ōna toto ki roto i te ārai, ā, ka pērā tāna meatanga ki taua toto, me tāna ki te toto o te pūru, ā, ka tāuhiuhia e ia ki te taupoki, ki mua hoki o te taupoki. 16 Ā, ka whakamārie mō te wāhi tapu, mō te poke o ngā tama a Īharaira, mō ā rātou mahi tutū i ō rātou haranga katoa. Kia pērā hoki tāna meatanga mō te tapenākara o te whakaminenga e tū ana i roto i a rātou waenganui o tō rātou poke. 17 Kaua anō hoki he tangata mō roto te tapenākara o te whakaminenga, ina haere ia ki te whakamārie i roto i te wāhi tapu, ā puta noa mai ki waho, kia oti rā anō te whakamārie mōna, mō tōna whare, mō te whakaminenga katoa anō hoki o Īharaira.

18 "Nā, ka puta ia ki te āta, ki tērā i te aroaro o Ihowā, mea ai i tō reira whakamārie; ka tango hoki i tētahi wāhi o te toto o te pūru, o te toto hoki o te koati, ka pani ai ki ngā haona o te āta ā tawhio noa. 19 Kia whitu hoki ngā tāuhiuhinga a tōna maihao i te toto, ā, ka purea, ka whakatapua, kia mā ai i te poke o ngā tama a Īharaira.

20 "Ā, ka oti tāna whakamārie mō te wāhi tapu, mō te tapenākara o te whakaminenga, mō te āta, nā, me kawe mai e ia te koati ora. 21 Nā, ka popoki ngā ringa e rua o Ārona ki te mātenga o te koati ora, ka whāki ai i ngā kino katoa o ngā tama a Īharaira ki runga i a ia, i ā rātou mahi tutū katoa, me ō rātou hara katoa; me uta hoki ki runga ki te mātenga o te koati, ka tuku ai kia kawea ki te koraha e tētahi tangata e noho rite ana. 22 Nā, ka mauria e te koati ō rātou kino katoa i runga i a ia ki tētahi whenua mokemoke; ā, ka tukua atu te koati ki te koraha.

23 "Nā, ka haere a Ārona ki roto ki te tapenākara o te whakaminenga, ā, ka unuhia atu ngā kākahu rīnena i kākahuria e ia i tōna haerenga ki roto ki te wāhi tapu, ka waiho hoki ki reira. 24 Me horoi anō e ia tōna kikokiko ki te wai ki te wāhi tapu, ka kākahu ai i ōna kākahu, ā, ka puta mai ia ki waho, ka mea hoki i tāna tahunga tinana, i te tahunga tinana hoki a te iwi, hei whakamārie mōna, mō te iwi. 25 Me tahu anō e ia te ngako o te whakahere hara ki runga ki te āta.

26 "Ko te kaituku hoki o te koati hei koati haere noa, me horoi e ia ōna kākahu, me horoi anō tōna kikokiko ki te wai, ā muri iho, ka haere mai ki te puni. 27 Ā, ko te pūru mō te whakahere hara, me te koati mō te whakahere hara, nō rāua nei ngā toto i kawea ki roto ki te wāhi tapu hei whakamārie, me mau ki waho o te puni; ā, ka tahuna ki te ahi ō rāua hiako, ō rāua kikokiko, me tō rāua paru. 28 Nā, ko te kaitahu, me horoi ōna kākahu, me horoi anō tōna kikokiko ki te wai, ā muri iho, ka haere mai ki te puni.

29 "Hei tikanga pūmau anō tēnei mā koutou; i te whitu o ngā marama, i te tekau o ngā rā o te marama, me whakapōuri ō koutou wairua, kaua rawa tētahi mahi e mahia, e te tangata whenua, e te manene rānei i roto i a koutou. 30 Ko ā taua rangi hoki te tohunga whakamārie ai mō koutou, hei pure i a koutou i ō koutou hara katoa, kia mā ai koutou i te aroaro o Ihowā. 31 Hei hāpati okiokinga taua rā ki a koutou, me whakapōuri ō koutou wairua; hei tikanga pūmau. 32 Me whakamārie anō te tohunga e whakawahia nei ia, e whakatohungatia hoki hei tohunga i muri i tōna pāpā, me kākahu anō ngā kākahu rīnena, ngā kākahu tapu, 33 me whakamārie ia mō te wāhi tapu, me whakamārie anō mō te tapenākara o te whakaminenga, mō te āta hoki; me whakamārie anō mō ngā tohunga, mō ngā tāngata katoa hoki o te whakaminenga.

34 "Hei tikanga pūmau tēnei ki a koutou, kia whakamārie mō ngā tama a Īharaira, mō ō rātou hara katoa; kia kotahi meatanga i te tau."

Nā, ka meinga e ia tā Ihowā i whakahau ai ki a Mohi.
