< Leviticus 16 >

1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they offered before the LORD, and died;
Sesudah kedua anak Harun mati pada waktu mempersembahkan api yang tidak dikehendaki TUHAN, TUHAN berbicara kepada Musa,
2 And the LORD said unto Moses, Speak unto Aaron your brother, that he comes not at all times into the holy place within the vail before the mercy seat, which is upon the ark; that he die not: for I will appear in the cloud upon the mercy seat.
kata-Nya, "Sampaikanlah kepada saudaramu Harun, bahwa hanya pada waktu yang ditentukan ia boleh memasuki Ruang Mahasuci yang dipisahkan dengan tirai, karena di situlah Aku menampakkan diri-Ku dalam awan di atas tutup Peti Perjanjian. Kalau Harun melanggar perintah itu, ia akan mati.
3 Thus shall Aaron come into the holy place: with a young bullock for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering.
Hanya dengan cara mempersembahkan sapi jantan muda untuk kurban pengampunan dosa dan seekor domba jantan untuk kurban bakaran, Harun boleh memasuki Ruang Mahasuci."
4 He shall put on the holy linen coat, and he shall have the linen breeches upon his flesh, and shall be girded with a linen girdle, and with the linen turban shall he be attired: these are holy garments; therefore shall he wash his flesh in water, and so put them on.
Selanjutnya Harun harus memperhatikan peraturan-peraturan ini. Sebelum memasuki Ruang Mahasuci ia harus mandi lalu memakai pakaian imam, yaitu baju, celana pendek, ikat pinggang dan serban, semuanya dari kain linen.
5 And he shall take of the congregation of the children of Israel two kids of the goats for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering.
Lalu umat Israel harus menyerahkan kepada Harun dua ekor kambing jantan untuk kurban pengampunan dosa dan seekor domba jantan untuk kurban bakaran.
6 And Aaron shall offer his bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make an atonement for himself, and for his house.
Harun harus mempersembahkan seekor sapi jantan untuk kurban pengampunan dosa bagi dirinya sendiri dan keluarganya.
7 And he shall take the two goats, and present them before the LORD at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
Kedua ekor kambing jantan dari umat Israel harus dibawanya ke depan pintu Kemah TUHAN.
8 And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for the LORD, and the other lot for the scapegoat.
Di situ ia harus membuang undi dengan menggunakan dua batu, yang satu ditandai "untuk TUHAN", dan yang lain "untuk Azazel".
9 And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the LORD's lot fell, and offer him for a sin offering.
Kambing yang terpilih bagi TUHAN harus dipersembahkan untuk kurban pengampunan dosa.
10 But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before the LORD, to make an atonement with him, and to let him go for a scapegoat into the wilderness.
Kambing yang terpilih bagi Azazel harus ditempatkan hidup-hidup di hadapan TUHAN lalu diusir ke padang gurun bagi Azazel, supaya dosa-dosa bangsa Israel dihapuskan.
11 And Aaron shall bring the bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and shall make an atonement for himself, and for his house, and shall kill the bullock of the sin offering which is for himself:
Setelah Harun mempersembahkan dan menyembelih sapi jantan untuk kurban pengampunan dosa bagi dirinya sendiri dan bagi keluarganya,
12 And he shall take a censer full of burning coals of fire from off the altar before the LORD, and his hands full of sweet incense beaten small, and bring it within the vail:
ia harus mengambil tempat api dari mezbah dan mengisinya penuh dengan bara api dan dua genggam dupa halus, lalu membawanya ke Ruang Mahasuci.
13 And he shall put the incense upon the fire before the LORD, that the cloud of the incense may cover the mercy seat that is upon the testimony, that he die not:
Dupa itu harus dibakarnya di depan Peti Perjanjian, sehingga asapnya menyelubungi tutup Peti itu dan Harun tidak dapat melihatnya, sebab kalau ia melihatnya, ia akan mati.
14 And he shall take of the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it with his finger upon the mercy seat eastward; and before the mercy seat shall he sprinkle of the blood with his finger seven times.
Lalu Harun harus mengambil sedikit darah sapi, dan dengan jarinya memercikkan darah itu ke bagian muka tutup Peti Perjanjian dan tujuh kali ke depan Peti.
15 Then shall he kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the people, and bring his blood within the vail, and do with that blood as he did with the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it upon the mercy seat, and before the mercy seat:
Sesudah itu Harun harus menyembelih kambing untuk kurban pengampunan dosa umat Israel. Darah kambing itu harus dibawanya ke Ruang Mahasuci, lalu dipercikkan ke bagian depan tutup Peti Perjanjian dan ke depan Peti, seperti yang sudah dilakukannya dengan darah sapi jantan.
16 And he shall make an atonement for the holy place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions in all their sins: and so shall he do for the tabernacle of the congregation, that remains among them in the midst of their uncleanness.
Dengan cara itu ia menyucikan Ruang Mahasuci dari kenajisan bangsa Israel dan dari segala dosa mereka. Kemah TUHAN harus disucikan karena berada di tengah-tengah perkemahan bangsa Israel dan kena kenajisan mereka.
17 And there shall be no man in the tabernacle of the congregation when he goes in to make an atonement in the holy place, until he comes out, and have made an atonement for himself, and for his household, and for all the congregation of Israel.
Mulai dari saat Harun memasuki Ruang Mahasuci untuk melakukan upacara penyucian sampai ia keluar, seorang pun tak boleh berada di dalam Kemah itu. Sesudah selesai melakukan upacara untuk dirinya sendiri, untuk keluarganya dan untuk seluruh bangsa Israel,
18 And he shall go out unto the altar that is before the LORD, and make an atonement for it; and shall take of the blood of the bullock, and of the blood of the goat, and put it upon the horns of the altar round about.
Harun harus keluar dan pergi ke mezbah kurban bakaran untuk menyucikan mezbah itu. Ia harus mengambil sedikit darah sapi dan darah kambing, dan mengoleskannya pada tanduk-tanduk di sudut-sudut mezbah.
19 And he shall sprinkle of the blood upon it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and hallow it from the uncleanness of the children of Israel.
Dengan jarinya ia harus memercikkan sedikit darah itu tujuh kali ke atas mezbah. Dengan cara itu ia menyucikan mezbah dari kenajisan bangsa Israel, supaya menjadi suci.
20 And when he has made an end of reconciling the holy place, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar, he shall bring the live goat:
Sesudah mengadakan upacara penyucian Ruang Mahasuci dan bagian-bagian lain dari Kemah TUHAN serta mezbahnya, Harun harus mempersembahkan kepada TUHAN kambing yang hidup yang dipilih bagi Azazel.
21 And Aaron shall lay 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 transgressions in all their sins, putting them upon the head of the goat, and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness:
Ia harus meletakkan kedua tangannya di atas kepala kambing itu sambil mengakui semua kesalahan, dosa dan pelanggaran bangsa Israel. Dengan demikian semua kesalahan bangsa Israel dipindahkan ke atas kepala kambing itu. Lalu seorang yang ditugaskan harus mengusir kambing itu ke padang gurun.
22 And the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities unto a land not inhabited: and he shall let go the goat in the wilderness.
Kambing itu membawa semua dosa bangsa Israel ke daerah tandus yang tidak didiami dan ia harus dilepaskan di padang gurun.
23 And Aaron shall come into the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall put off the linen garments, which he put on when he went into the holy place, and shall leave them there:
Sesudah itu Harun harus masuk ke dalam Kemah, membuka pakaian imam yang dipakainya waktu masuk ke Ruang Mahasuci, dan meninggalkan pakaian itu di sana.
24 And he shall wash his flesh with water in the holy place, and put on his garments, and come forth, and offer his burnt offering, and the burnt offering of the people, and make an atonement for himself, and for the people.
Lalu ia harus mandi di suatu tempat yang dikhususkan dan memakai pakaiannya sendiri. Sesudahnya ia harus keluar dan mempersembahkan kurban bakaran untuk pengampunan dosanya sendiri dan dosa bangsa Israel.
25 And the fat of the sin offering shall he burn upon the altar.
Lemak binatang untuk kurban pengampunan dosa harus dibakar di mezbah.
26 And he that let go the goat for the scapegoat shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward come into the camp.
Orang yang melepaskan kambing bagi Azazel di padang gurun harus mencuci pakaiannya dan mandi sebelum pulang ke perkemahan.
27 And the bullock for the sin offering, and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the holy place, shall one carry forth without the camp; and they shall burn in the fire their skins, and their flesh, and their dung.
Sapi jantan dan kambing untuk kurban pengampunan dosa, yang darahnya dibawa masuk ke Ruang Mahasuci untuk pengampunan dosa, harus dibawa ke luar perkemahan dan dibakar. Kulit, daging dan isi perut kedua binatang harus dibakar semuanya.
28 And he that burns them shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp.
Orang yang membakarnya harus mencuci pakaiannya dan mandi sebelum pulang ke perkemahan.
29 And this shall be a statute for ever unto you: that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, all of you shall afflict your souls, and do no work at all, whether it be one of your own country, or a stranger that sojourns among you:
Peraturan-peraturan ini harus ditaati untuk selama-lamanya. Pada tanggal sepuluh bulan tujuh, orang Israel dan orang asing yang menetap di antara mereka harus berpuasa dan dilarang bekerja, karena hari ini hari yang sangat suci. Pada hari itu harus dilakukan upacara untuk menyucikan bangsa Israel dari segala dosa mereka supaya mereka bersih.
30 For on that day shall the priest make an atonement for you, to cleanse you, that all of you may be clean from all your sins before the LORD.
31 It shall be a sabbath of rest unto you, and all of you shall afflict your souls, by a statute for ever.
32 And the priest, whom he shall anoint, and whom he shall consecrate to minister in the priest's office in his father's position, shall make the atonement, and shall put on the linen clothes, even the holy garments:
Imam Agung, yang sudah ditahbiskan dan dikhususkan bagi Allah untuk menggantikan ayahnya, harus melakukan upacara penyucian itu. Ia harus memakai pakaian khusus,
33 And he shall make an atonement for the holy sanctuary, and he shall make an atonement for the tabernacle of the congregation, and for the altar, and he shall make an atonement for the priests, and for all the people of the congregation.
lalu melakukan upacara penyucian Ruang Mahasuci, bagian-bagian lain dari Kemah TUHAN, mezbah, imam-imam dan seluruh bangsa Israel.
34 And this shall be an everlasting statute unto you, to make an atonement for the children of Israel for all their sins once a year. And he did as the LORD commanded Moses.
Upacara itu harus dilakukan sekali setahun untuk menyucikan bangsa Israel dari segala dosa mereka. Itulah peraturan-peraturan yang harus ditaati untuk selama-lamanya. Musa melakukan seperti yang diperintahkan TUHAN kepadanya.
