Liturgy sur Yoma 3:9

בָּא לוֹ לְמִזְרַח הָעֲזָרָה, לִצְפוֹן הַמִּזְבֵּחַ, הַסְּגָן מִימִינוֹ וְרֹאשׁ בֵּית אָב מִשְּׂמֹאלוֹ. וְשָׁם שְׁנֵי שְׂעִירִים, וְקַלְפִּי הָיְתָה שָׁם וּבָהּ שְׁנֵי גוֹרָלוֹת. שֶׁל אֶשְׁכְּרוֹעַ הָיוּ, וַעֲשָׂאָן בֶּן גַּמְלָא שֶׁל זָהָב, וְהָיוּ מַזְכִּירִין אוֹתוֹ לְשָׁבַח:

Il vint à l'est de l'azarah, au nord de l'autel, l'adjudant grand-prêtre à sa droite et le chef de la maison patriarcale à sa gauche, et là les deux chèvres se tenaient [Car ils n'ont pas amené les chèvres entre l'Ulam et l'autel quand ils voulaient placer les bulletins sur eux; mais ils se tinrent dans l'azarah jusqu'au moment de l'abattage.], et il y avait là un kalpi [une boîte en bois creuse] et deux bulletins de buis [un bois fin]; et Ben Gamla [Yehoshua b. Gamla, quand il fut nommé grand prêtre] les fit d'or, et il reçut une mention honorable.

The High Priest then walked to the eastern part of the Temple Courtyard where stood a pair of goats bought with communal funds. They stood next to each other like twins, identical in color and height,⁹⁴The Mishnah stipulates four categories of similarity: looks (color), height, value, and simultaneous purchase. ready to atone for the sins of a rebellious daughter [Yisrael].⁹⁵Yirmiyahu 31:21. Two golden lots were mixed,⁹⁶Mishnah Yoma 3:9, 4:1. then lifted out of the box,⁹⁷The High Priest placed both hands into the box, then mixed the lots inside, and lifted them out, one in his right hand and one in his left (Rambam ch. 3). one lot for God, the other for “Azazel.”⁹⁸Mishnah Yoma 4:1. On one lot was written “For Hashem” and on the other was written “For Azazel.” The two goats stood in front of him facing west. The goat to his right received the lot in his right hand, and the goat on the left was allotted that in his left. He shouted aloud “A sin offering for Adonoy.”⁹⁹Ibid. This was shouted when he placed the lot “for Adonoy” on the appropriate goat. Those who heard him responded, blessing ‘the Name of God.'¹⁰⁰They actually responded saying: “Blessed [is His] Name, His glorious Kingdom is forever and ever”; as was the procedure each time the Name of Hashem was explicitly pronounced (see note 92). In addition, as before, the people prostrated themselves (see Rambam ch. 2). The goat receiving the lot “for Hashem” would later be sacrificed as a sin offering, while the goat receiving the lot “for Azazel” would be sent out to the Judean hills. A thread of red wool he tied on the head of the Azazel goat¹⁰¹Mishnah Yoma 4:2. This was done so that the scapegoat should not be confused with the other goat, to be sacrificed. which was placed at the eastern gate¹⁰²Ibid. This was the “gate of Niknor.” from whence it would be sent away. He completed this service, approached his ox a second time,¹⁰³Ibid. This was the ox upon which he had previously confessed his and his household’s sins. Thus, the two confessions were interspersed by the drawing of the lots for the two goats. and made confession.¹⁰⁴This confession was for himself and his fellow priests.
