1 L’Éternel parla à Moïse, après la mort des deux fils d’Aaron, qui moururent en se présentant devant l’Éternel.

2 L’Éternel dit à Moïse: Parle à ton frère Aaron, afin qu’il n’entre pas en tout temps dans le sanctuaire, au dedans du voile, devant le propitiatoire qui est sur l’arche, de peur qu’il ne meure; car j’apparaîtrai dans la nuée sur le propitiatoire.

3 Voici de quelle manière Aaron entrera dans le sanctuaire. Il prendra un jeune taureau pour le sacrifice d’expiation et un bélier pour l’holocauste.
