13 And shall put the incense upon the fire before the Lord, that the [b]cloud of the incense may cover the Mercy seat that is upon [c]the Testimony: so he shall not die.

14 And he shall (A)take of the blood of the bullock, (B)and sprinkle it with his finger upon the Mercy seat [d]Eastward: and before the Mercy seat shall he sprinkle of the blood with his finger seven times.
