Leviticus 16:2, 12-15

Leviticus 16:2 CSB

The LORD said to Moses, “Tell your brother Aaron that he may not come whenever he wants into the holy place  behind the curtain  in front of the mercy seat  on the ark or else he will die, because I appear in the cloud  above the mercy seat.

Leviticus 16:12-15 CSB

Then he is to take a firepan full of blazing coals from the altar before the LORD and two handfuls of finely ground fragrant incense,  and bring them inside the curtain.  He is to put the incense on the fire before the LORD, so that the cloud  of incense covers the mercy seat that is over the testimony,  or else he will die.  He is to take some of the bull’s blood  and sprinkle it with his finger against the east side of the mercy seat; then he will sprinkle some of the blood with his finger before the mercy seat seven times.  “When he slaughters the male goat for the people’s sin offering and brings its blood inside the curtain, he will do the same with its blood as he did with the bull’s blood: He is to sprinkle it against the mercy seat and in front of it.
