Leviticus 16:12 in Context — Leviticus 16

10 Et le bouc sur lequel est tombé le sort pour Azazel sera placé vivant devant l’Éternel, afin qu’il serve à faire l’expiation et qu’il soit lâché dans le désert pour Azazel.

11 Aaron offrira son taureau expiatoire, et il fera l’expiation pour lui et pour sa maison. Il égorgera son taureau expiatoire.

12 Il prendra un brasier plein de charbons ardents ôtés de dessus l’autel devant l’Éternel, et de deux poignées de parfum odoriférant en poudre; il portera ces choses au-delà du voile;

13 il mettra le parfum sur le feu devant l’Éternel, afin que la nuée du parfum couvre le propitiatoire qui est sur le témoignage, et il ne mourra point.

14 Il prendra du sang du taureau, et il fera l’aspersion avec son doigt sur le devant du propitiatoire vers l’orient; il fera avec son doigt sept fois l’aspersion du sang devant le propitiatoire.
