Leviticus 16:2-4
New American Standard Bible
2 The Lord said to Moses:
“Tell your brother Aaron that he shall not enter (A)at [a]any time into the Holy Place inside the veil, before the [b]atoning cover which is on the ark, or he will die; for (B)I will appear in the cloud over the [c]atoning cover. 3 Aaron shall enter the Holy Place with this: with a [d]bull as a [e](C)sin offering and a ram as a burnt offering. 4 He shall put on the (D)holy linen tunic, and the linen undergarments shall be next to his [f]body, and he shall be wrapped about the waist with the linen sash and the linen turban wound around his forehead (these are holy garments). He shall (E)bathe his [g]body in water and put them on.
