Leviticus 4:14-23
141when the sin 2which they have 3committed becomes known, then the assembly shall offer 4a 5bull of the herd for a sin offering and bring it before the tent of meeting. 15Then 6the elders of the congregation shall lay their hands on the head of the bull before the Lord, and the bull shall be slain 7before the Lord. 16Then the anointed priest is to bring some of the blood of the bull to the tent of meeting; 17and 8the priest shall dip his finger in the blood and sprinkle it seven times before the Lord, in front of the veil. 18He shall put some of the blood on the horns of 9the altar which is before the Lord 10in 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. 1911He shall remove all its fat from it and offer it up in smoke on the altar. 20He shall also do with the bull just as he did with 12the bull of the sin offering; thus he shall do with it. So 13the priest shall make atonement for them, and they will be forgiven. 21Then he is to bring out the bull to a place outside the camp and burn it as he burned the first bull; it is 14the sin offering for the assembly.
22‘When 15a leader 16sins and unintentionally does any one of all the 17things which the Lord his God has commanded not to be done, and he becomes guilty, 231819if his sin 20which he has committed is made known to him, he shall bring for his offering a 2122goat, 23a male without defect.
