Leviticus 16:20-22
1599 Geneva Bible
20 ¶ When he hath made an end of purging the Holy place, and the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and the Altar, then he shall bring the live goat:
21 And Aaron shall put both his hands upon the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their trespasses in all their sins, putting them [a]upon the head of the goat, and shall send him away (by the hand of a man appointed) into the wilderness.
22 So the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities into [b]the land that is not inhabited, and he shall let the goat go into the wilderness.
