Then the LORD spoke
to Moses
, saying
,
"Speak to the sons
of Israel
, saying
, `If
a person
sins
aunintentionally
in any
of the 1things
which
the LORD
has bcommanded
not to be done
, and commits
any
of them,
aif the anointed
priest
sins
so as to bring
guilt
on the people
, then let him offer
to the LORD
a 1bull
without
defect
as a sin
offering
for the sin
he has 2committed
.
`He shall bring the bull
to the doorway
of the tent
of meeting
before
the LORD
, and ahe shall lay
his hand
on the head
of the bull
and slay
the bull
before
the LORD
.
`Then the aanointed priest
is to take
some
of the blood
of the bull
and bring
it to the tent
of meeting
,
and the priest shall dip
his finger
in the blood
and sprinkle
some
of the blood
seven
times
before
the LORD
, in front
of athe veil
of the sanctuary
.
`The priest shall also put
some
of the blood
on the horns
of athe altar
of fragrant
incense
which
is before
the LORD
in the tent
of meeting
; and all
the blood
of the bull
he shall pour
out at the base
of the altar
of burnt
offering
which
is at the doorway
of the tent
of meeting
.
` aHe shall remove from it all
the fat
of the bull
of the sin
offering
: the fat
that covers
the entrails
, and all
the fat
which
is on the entrails
,
and the two kidneys
with the fat
that is on them, which
is on the loins
, and the 1lobe
of the liver
, which
he shall remove
awith the kidneys
(just as it is removed
from the ox
of the sacrifice
of peace
offerings
), and the priest
is to offer
them up in smoke
on the altar
of burnt
offering
.
`But athe hide of the bull
and all
its flesh
with its head
and its legs
and its entrails
and its refuse
,
1that is, all the rest of the bull
, he is to bring
out to aa clean
place
outside
the camp
where
the 2ashes
are poured
out, and burn
it on wood
with fire
; where
the 2ashes
are poured
out it shall be burned
.
` aNow if the whole
congregation
of Israel
commits
error
and the matter
1escapes
the notice
of the assembly
, and they commit
any
of the 2things
which
the LORD
has commanded
not to be done
, and they become
guilty
;
awhen the sin 1which
they have 2committed
becomes
known
, then the assembly
shall offer
ba 3bull
of the herd
for a sin
offering
and bring
it before
the tent
of meeting
.
`Then athe elders of the congregation
shall lay
their hands
on the head
of the bull
before
the LORD
, and the bull
shall be slain
bbefore
the LORD
.
`Then the anointed priest
is to bring
some
of the blood
of the bull
to the tent
of meeting
;
and athe priest shall dip
his finger
in the blood
and sprinkle
it seven
times
before
the LORD
, in front
of the veil
.
`He shall put some
of the blood
on the horns
of athe altar
which
is before
the LORD
1in the tent
of meeting
; and all
the blood
he shall pour
out at the base
of the altar
of burnt
offering
which
is at the doorway
of the tent
of meeting
.
` aHe shall remove all
its fat
from it and offer
it up in smoke
on the altar
.
`He shall also do with the bull
just
as he did
with athe bull
of the sin
offering
; thus
he shall do
with it. So bthe priest
shall make
atonement
for them, and they will be forgiven
.
`Then he is to bring out the bull
to a place outside
the camp
and burn
it as he burned
the first
bull
; it is athe sin
offering
for the assembly
.
`When aa leader
bsins
and unintentionally
does
any
one
of all
the 1things
which
the LORD
his God
has commanded
not to be done
, and he becomes
guilty
,
1 aif his sin
2which
he has committed
is made
known
to him, he shall bring
for his offering
a 3 bgoat
, ca male
without
defect
.
`He shall lay his hand
on the head
of the male
goat
and slay
it in the place
where
1they slay
the burnt
offering
before
the LORD
; it is a sin
offering
.
`Then the priest is to take
some
of the blood
of the sin
offering
with his finger
and put
it on athe horns
of the altar
of burnt
offering
; and the rest of its blood
he shall pour
out at the base
of the altar
of burnt
offering
.
` aAll its fat
he shall offer
up in smoke
on the altar
as in the case of the fat
of the sacrifice
of peace
offerings
. Thus bthe priest
shall make
atonement
for him in regard to his sin
, and he will be forgiven
.
`Now if 1anyone
of 2the common
people
sins
aunintentionally
in doing
any
of the 3things
which
the LORD
has commanded
not to be done
, and becomes
guilty
,
1 aif his sin
which
he has 2committed
is made
known
to him, then he shall bring
for his offering
a 3 bgoat
, a cfemale
without
defect
, for his sin
which
he has 2committed
.
` aHe shall lay his hand
on the head
of the sin
offering
and bslay
the sin
offering
at the place
of the burnt
offering
.
`The priest shall take
some
of its blood
with his finger
and put
it on the horns
of athe altar
of burnt
offering
; and ball
the rest of its blood
he shall pour
out at the base
of the altar
.
` aThen he shall remove all
its fat
, just
as the fat
was removed
from the sacrifice
of peace
offerings
; and the priest
shall offer
it up in smoke
on the altar
for ba soothing
aroma
to the LORD
. Thus the priest
shall make
atonement
for him, 1and he will be forgiven
.
`But if he brings
aa lamb
as his offering
for a sin
offering
, he shall bring
it, a female
without
defect
.
` aHe shall lay his hand
on the head
of the sin
offering
and slay
it for a sin
offering
bin the place
where
1they slay
the burnt
offering
.
`The priest is to take
some
of the blood
of the sin
offering
with his finger
and put
it on the horns
of athe altar
of burnt
offering
, and ball
the rest of its blood
he shall pour
out at the base
of the altar
.
`Then he shall remove aall
its fat
, just
as the fat
of the lamb
is removed
from the sacrifice
of the peace
offerings
, and the priest
shall offer
them up in smoke
on the altar
, on the offerings
by fire
to the LORD
. Thus bthe priest
shall make
atonement
for him in regard
to his sin
which
he has 1committed
, and he will be forgiven
