* Now the LORD spoke to Moses , saying , * "Speak to the children of Israel , saying : "If a person sins unintentionally against any of the commandments of the LORD in anything which ought not to be done , and does any of them , * if the anointed priest sins , bringing guilt on the people , then let him offer to the LORD for his sin which he has sinned a young bull without blemish as a sin offering . * He shall bring the bull to the door of the tabernacle of meeting before the LORD , lay his hand on the bull 's head , and kill the bull before the LORD . * Then the anointed priest shall take some of the bull 's blood and bring it to the tabernacle of meeting . * The priest shall dip his finger in the blood and sprinkle some of the blood seven times before the LORD , in front of the veil of the sanctuary . * And the priest shall put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of sweet incense before the LORD , which is in the tabernacle of meeting ; and he shall pour the remaining blood of the bull at the base of the altar of the burnt offering , which is at the door of the tabernacle of meeting . * He shall take from it all the fat of the bull as the sin offering . The fat that covers the entrails and all the fat which is on the entrails , * the two kidneys and the fat that is on them by the flanks , and the fatty lobe attached to the liver above the kidneys , he shall remove , * as it was taken from the bull of the sacrifice of the peace offering ; and the priest shall burn them on the altar of the burnt offering . * But the bull 's hide and all its flesh , with its head and legs , its entrails and offal -- * the whole bull he shall carry outside the camp to a clean place , where the ashes are poured out , and burn it on wood with fire ; where the ashes are poured out it shall be burned . * "Now if the whole congregation of Israel sins unintentionally , and the thing is hidden from the eyes of the assembly , and they have done something against any of the commandments of the LORD in anything which should not be done , and are guilty ; * when the sin which they have committed becomes known , then the assembly shall offer a young bull for the sin , and bring it before the tabernacle of meeting . * And the elders of the congregation shall lay their hands on the head of the bull before the LORD . Then the bull shall be killed before the LORD . * The anointed priest shall bring some of the bull 's blood to the tabernacle of meeting . * Then the priest shall dip his finger in the blood and sprinkle it seven times before the LORD , in front of the veil . * And he shall put some of the blood on the horns of the altar which is before the LORD , which is in the tabernacle of meeting ; and he shall pour the remaining blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering , which is at the door of the tabernacle of meeting . * He shall take all the fat from it and burn it on the altar . * And he shall do with the bull as he did with the bull as a sin offering ; thus he shall do with it . So the priest shall make atonement for them , and it shall be forgiven them . * Then he shall carry the bull outside the camp , and burn it as he burned the first bull . It is a sin offering for the assembly . * "When a ruler has sinned , and done something unintentionally against any of the commandments of the LORD his God in anything which should not be done , and is guilty , * or if his sin which he has committed comes to his knowledge , he shall bring as his offering a kid of the goats , a male without blemish . * And he shall lay his hand on the head of the goat , and kill it at the place where they kill the burnt offering before the LORD . It is a sin offering . * The priest shall take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger , put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering , and pour its blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering . * And he shall burn all its fat on the altar , like the fat of the sacrifice of the peace offering . So the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin , and it shall be forgiven him . * "If anyone of the common people sins unintentionally by doing something against any of the commandments of the LORD in anything which ought not to be done , and is guilty , * or if his sin which he has committed comes to his knowledge , then he shall bring as his offering a kid of the goats , a female without blemish , for his sin which he has committed . * And he shall lay his hand on the head of the sin offering , and kill the sin offering at the place of the burnt offering . * Then the priest shall take some of its blood with his finger , put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering , and pour all the remaining blood at the base of the altar . * He shall remove all its fat , as fat is removed from the sacrifice of the peace offering ; and the priest shall burn it on the altar for a sweet aroma to the LORD . So the priest shall make atonement for him , and it shall be forgiven him . * "If he brings a lamb as his sin offering , he shall bring a female without blemish . * Then he shall lay his hand on the head of the sin offering , and kill it as a sin offering at the place where they kill the burnt offering . * The priest shall take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger , put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering , and pour all the remaining blood at the base of the altar . * He shall remove all its fat , as the fat of the lamb is removed from the sacrifice of the peace offering . Then the priest shall burn it on the altar , according to the offerings made by fire to the LORD . So the priest shall make atonement for his sin that he has committed , and it shall be forgiven him .
