6and the priestH3548 shall dipH2881 his fingerH676 in the bloodH1818 and sprinkleH5137 someH4480 of the bloodH1818 sevenH7651 timesH6471 beforeH6440 the LordH3068, in frontH6440 of 1the veilH6532 of the sanctuaryH6944. 7The priestH3548 shall also putH5414 someH4480 of the bloodH1818 on the hornsH7161 of 2the altarH4196 of fragrantH5561 incenseH7004 whichH834 is beforeH6440 the LordH3068 in the tentH168 of meetingH4150; and allH3605 the bloodH1818 of the bullH6499 he shall pourH8210 out at the baseH3247 of the altarH4196 of burntH5930 offeringH5930 whichH834 is at the doorwayH6607 of the tentH168 of meetingH4150. 83He shall removeH7311 from it allH3605 the fatH2459 of the bullH6499 of the sinH2403 offeringH2403: the fatH2459 that coversH3680 the entrailsH7130, and allH3605 the fatH2459 whichH834 is on the entrailsH7130, 9and the twoH8147 kidneysH3629 with the fatH2459 that is on them, whichH834 is on the loinsH3689, and the 4lobeH3508 of the liverH3516, whichH834 he shall removeH5493 5with the kidneysH3629 10(justH3512 as it is removedH7311 from the oxH7794 of the sacrificeH2077 of peaceH8002 offeringsH8002), and the priestH3548 is to offerH6999 them up in smokeH6999 on the altarH4196 of burntH5930 offeringH5930. 11But 6the hideH5785 of the bullH6499 and allH3605 its fleshH1320 with its headH7218 and its legsH3767 and its entrailsH7130 and its refuseH6569, 127that is, allH3605 the rest of the bullH6499, he is to bringH3318 out to 8a cleanH2889 placeH4725 outsideH4480H2351 the campH4264 whereH413 the 9ashesH1880 are pouredH8211 out, and burnH8313 it on woodH6086 with fireH784; whereH5921 the 10ashesH1880 are pouredH8211 out it shall be burnedH8313.
13‘11Now ifH518 the wholeH3605 congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478 commitsH7686 errorH7686 and the matterH1697 12escapesH5956 the noticeH5869 of the assemblyH6951, and they commitH6213 anyH259 of the 13thingsH4687 whichH834 the LordH3068 has commandedH4687 not to be doneH6213, and they becomeH816 guiltyH816; 1414when the sinH2403 15whichH834 they have 16committedH2398 becomesH3045 knownH3045, then the assemblyH6951 shall offerH7126 17a 18bullH6499 of the herdH1241 for a sinH2403 offeringH2403 and bringH935 it beforeH6440 the tentH168 of meetingH4150. 15Then 19the eldersH2205 of the congregationH5712 shall layH5564 their handsH3027 on the headH7218 of the bullH6499 beforeH6440 the LordH3068, and the bullH6499 shall be slainH7819 20beforeH6440 the LordH3068. 16Then the anointedH4899 priestH3548 is to bringH935 someH4480 of the bloodH1818 of the bullH6499 to the tentH168 of meetingH4150; 17and 21the priestH3548 shall dipH2881 his fingerH676 in the bloodH1818 and sprinkleH5137 it sevenH7651 timesH6471 beforeH6440 the LordH3068, in frontH6440 of the veilH6532. 18He shall putH5414 someH4480 of the bloodH1818 on the hornsH7161 of 22the altarH4196 whichH834 is beforeH6440 the LordH3068 23in the tentH168 of meetingH4150; and allH3605 the bloodH1818 he shall pourH8210 out at the baseH3247 of the altarH4196 of burntH5930 offeringH5930 whichH834 is at the doorwayH6607 of the tentH168 of meetingH4150. 1924He shall removeH7311 allH3605 its fatH2459 from it and offerH6999 it up in smokeH6999 on the altarH4196. 20He shall also doH6213 with the bullH6499 justH3512 as he didH6213 with 25the bullH6499 of the sinH2403 offeringH2403; thusH3651 he shall doH6213 with it. So 26the priestH3548 shall makeH3722 atonementH3722 for them, and they will be forgivenH5545. 21Then he is to bringH3318 out the bullH6499 to a place outsideH4480H2351 the campH4264 and burnH8313 it as he burnedH8313 the firstH7223 bullH6499; it is 27the sinH2403 offeringH2403 for the assemblyH6951.
22‘WhenH834 28a leaderH5387 29sinsH2398 and unintentionallyH7684 doesH6213 anyH259 oneH259 of allH3605 the 30thingsH4687 whichH834 the LordH3068 his GodH430 has commandedH4687 not to be doneH6213, and he becomesH816 guiltyH816, 233132ifH176 his sinH2403 33whichH834 he has committedH2398 is madeH3045 knownH3045 to him, he shall bringH935 for his offeringH7133 a 3435goatH8163H5795, 36a maleH2145 withoutH8549 defectH8549.
