1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Speak
unto the children of Israel, saying, If a soul shall sin through ignorance
against any of the commandments of the LORD concerning things which ought not to be done, and shall
do against any of them:
3 If
the priest that is anointed do sin according to the sin of the people; then let
him bring for his sin, which he hath sinned, a young bullock without blemish
unto the LORD for a sin offering.
4 And
he shall bring the bullock unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation
before the LORD; and shall lay his hand upon the bullock's head, and kill the
bullock before the LORD.
5 And
the priest that is anointed shall take of the bullock's blood, and bring it to
the tabernacle of the congregation:
6 And
the priest shall dip his finger in the blood, and sprinkle of the blood seven
times before the LORD, before the vail of the sanctuary.
7 And
the priest shall put some of the blood upon the horns of the
altar of sweet incense before the LORD, which is in the tabernacle of the congregation;
and shall pour all the blood of the bullock at the bottom of the altar of the
burnt offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation.
8 And
he shall take off from it all the fat of the bullock for the sin offering; the
fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that is upon
the inwards,
9 And
the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, which is by the
flanks, and the caul above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he take away,
10 As
it was taken off from the bullock of the sacrifice of peace offerings: and the
priest shall burn them upon the altar of the burnt offering.
11 And
the skin of the bullock, and all his flesh, with his head, and with his legs,
and his inwards, and his dung,
12 Even
the whole bullock shall he carry forth without the camp unto a clean place,
where the ashes are poured out, and burn him on the wood with fire: where the
ashes are poured out shall he be burnt.
13 And
if the whole congregation of Israel sin through ignorance, and the thing be hid
from the eyes of the assembly, and they have done somewhat against any
of the commandments of the LORD concerning things which should not be done, and are
guilty;
14 When
the sin, which they have sinned against it, is known, then the congregation
shall offer a young bullock for the sin, and bring him before the tabernacle of
the congregation.
15 And
the elders of the congregation shall lay their hands upon the head of the
bullock before the LORD: and the bullock shall be killed before the LORD.
16 And
the priest that is anointed shall bring of the bullock's blood to the
tabernacle of the congregation:
17 And
the priest shall dip his finger in some of the blood, and sprinkle it seven
times before the LORD, even before the vail.
18 And
he shall put some of
the blood upon the horns of the altar which is before the LORD, that is in the
tabernacle of the congregation, and shall pour out all the blood at the bottom
of the altar of the burnt offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation.
19 And
he shall take all his fat from him, and burn it upon the altar.
20 And
he shall do with the bullock as he did with the bullock for a sin offering, so
shall he do with this: and the priest shall make an atonement for them, and it
shall be forgiven them.
21 And
he shall carry forth the bullock without the camp, and burn him as he burned
the first bullock: it is a sin offering for the congregation.
22 When
a ruler hath sinned, and done somewhat through ignorance against any
of the commandments of the LORD his God concerning things which should not be done, and is
guilty;
23 Or
if his sin, wherein he hath sinned, come to his knowledge; he shall bring his
offering, a kid of the goats, a male without blemish:
24 And
he shall lay his hand upon the head of the goat, and kill it in the place where
they kill the burnt offering before the LORD: it is a sin
offering.
25 And
the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, and put it upon
the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out his blood at the
bottom of the altar of burnt offering.
26 And
he shall burn all his fat upon the altar, as the fat of the sacrifice of peace
offerings: and the priest shall make an atonement for him as concerning his
sin, and it shall be forgiven him.
27 And
if any one of the common people sin through ignorance, while he doeth somewhat against any
of the commandments of the LORD concerning things which ought not to be done, and be
guilty;
28 Or
if his sin, which he hath sinned, come to his knowledge: then he shall bring
his offering, a kid of the goats, a female without blemish, for his sin which
he hath sinned.
29 And
he shall lay his hand upon the head of the sin offering, and slay the sin
offering in the place of the burnt offering.
30 And
the priest shall take of the blood thereof with his finger, and put it upon
the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood
thereof at the bottom of the altar.
31 And
he shall take away all the fat thereof, as the fat is taken away from off the
sacrifice of peace offerings; and the priest shall burn it upon
the altar for a sweet savour unto the LORD; and the priest shall make an
atonement for him, and it shall be forgiven him.
32 And
if he bring a lamb for a sin offering, he shall bring it a female without
blemish.
33 And
he shall lay his hand upon the head of the sin offering, and slay it for a sin
offering in the place where they kill the burnt offering.
34 And
the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, and put it upon
the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood
thereof at the bottom of the altar:
35 And
he shall take away all the fat thereof, as the fat of the lamb is taken away
from the sacrifice of the peace offerings; and the priest shall burn them upon
the altar, according to the offerings made by fire unto the LORD: and the
priest shall make an atonement for his sin that he hath committed, and it shall
be forgiven him.
