God’s Word Translation
Numbers 15:22-28
22“Suppose you unintentionally do something wrong by not obeying all these commands the Lord gave Moses.
23(Everything the Lord commanded you through Moses holds as true for generations to come as it did the day the Lord gave the commands.)
24If it was unintentional and no one else knows about it, the whole community must sacrifice a young bull as a burnt offering, a soothing aroma to the Lord, along with the proper grain and wine offerings, and a male goat as an offering for sin.
25The priest will make peace with the Lord for the whole community of Israel. Then they will be forgiven because the wrongdoing was unintentional and they brought these two offerings to the Lord for their sin: an offering by fire and an offering for sin.
26So the whole community of Israel will be forgiven, including foreigners who are living among them, since all the people were involved in the unintentional wrongdoing.
27“If one person unintentionally does something wrong, a one-year-old female goat must be sacrificed as an offering for sin.
28The priest will offer the sacrifice to make peace with the Lord for that person, and that person will be forgiven.
