Leviticus 4:22-26

22‘When 1a leader 2sins and unintentionally does any one of all the 3things which the Lord his God has commanded not to be done, and he becomes guilty, 23 4 5if his sin 6which he has committed is made known to him, he shall bring for his offering a 7 8goat, 9a male without defect. 24He shall lay his hand on the head of the male goat and slay it in the place where 10they slay the burnt offering before the Lord; it is a sin offering. 25Then the priest is to take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger and put it on 11the 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. 26 12All 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 13the priest shall make atonement for him in regard to his sin, and he will be forgiven.
