shal send him away by the hand of a man appointed into the wildernes 22 So the goat shal beare vpon him all their iniquities into the lād that is not in habited he shal let the goat go into the wildernes 23 After Aarón shal come into the Tabernacle of the Congregacion and put of the linen clothes which he put on when he went into the Holy place and leaue them there 24 He shal wash also his flesh with water in the Holy place and put on his owne raiment and come out and make his burnt offring and the burnt offring of the people and make an atonement for him self and for the people 25 Also
