Darby Translation

Douay-Rheims

He shall immolate the lamb, where the victim for sin is wont to be immolated, and the holocaust, that is, in the holy place: for as that which is for sin, so also the victim for a trespass offering pertaineth to the priest: it is holy of holies.

Jewish Publication Society (1917)

Brenton’s Septuagint (1851), English

And they shall kill the lamb in the place where they kill the whole-burnt-offerings, and the sin-offerings, in the holy places; for it is a sin-offering: as the trespass-offering, it belongs to the priest, it is most holy.

Septuagint (Brenton’s Greek, 1851)

Καὶ σφάξουσι τὸν ἀμνὸν ἐν τόπῳ, οὗ σφάζουσι τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα, καὶ τὰ περὶ ἁμαρτίας, ἐν τόπῳ ἁγίῳ· ἔστι γὰρ τὸ περὶ ἁμαρτίας, ὥσπερ τὸ τῆς πλημμελείας ἐστὶ τῷ ἱερει· ἅγια ἁγίων ἐστί.
