Numbers 15:21-32
21From the firstH7225 of your 1doughH6182 you shall giveH5414 to the LordH3068 an 2offeringH8641 throughout your generationsH1755.
22‘But whenH3588 you 3unwittinglyH7686 failH7368 and do not observeH6213 allH3605 theseH428 commandmentsH4687, whichH834 the LordH3068 has spokenH1696 to MosesH4872, 23even allH3605 that the LordH3068 has commandedH6680 you 4throughH3027 MosesH4872, from the dayH3117 whenH834 the LordH3068 gaveH6680 commandmentH6680 and onwardH1973 throughout your generationsH1755, 24then it shall be, ifH518 it is doneH6213 5unintentionallyH7684, 6withoutH4480 the knowledgeH5869 of the congregationH5712, that allH3605 the congregationH5712 shall offerH6213 oneH259 bullH6499H1121H1241 for a burntH5930 offeringH5930, as a soothingH5207 aromaH7381 to the LordH3068, 7with its grain offeringH4503 and its drinkH5262 offeringH5262, according to the ordinanceH4941, and oneH259 maleH8163 goatH5795 for a sinH2403 offeringH2403. 25Then 8the priestH3548 shall makeH3722 atonementH3722 for allH3605 the congregationH5712 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, and they will be forgivenH5545; for it was an errorH7684, and they have broughtH935 their offeringH7133, an offeringH801 by fireH801 to the LordH3068, and their sinH2403 offeringH2403 beforeH6440 the LordH3068, for their errorH7684. 26So allH3605 the congregationH5712 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 will be forgivenH5545, with the alienH1616 who sojournsH1481 amongH8432 them, for it happened to allH3605 the peopleH5971 through 9errorH7684.
27‘Also ifH518 oneH259 personH5315 sinsH2398 10unintentionallyH7684, then he shall offerH7126 a one yearH8141 oldH1323 femaleH5795 goatH5795 for a sinH2403 offeringH2403. 2811The priestH3548 shall makeH3722 atonementH3722 beforeH6440 the LordH3068 for the personH5315 who goesH7683 astrayH7683 when he sinsH2398 unintentionallyH7684, makingH3722 atonementH3722 for him 12that he may be forgivenH5545. 29You shall haveH1961 oneH259 lawH8451 for him who doesH6213 anything unintentionallyH7684, for him who is nativeH249 among the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 and for the alienH1616 who sojournsH1481 amongH8432 them. 30But the personH5315 whoH834 doesH6213 anything 13defiantlyH7311H3027, whetherH4480 he is nativeH249 or an alienH1616, that oneH1931 is blasphemingH1442 the LordH3068; and that personH5315 shall be cutH3772 offH3772 from amongH7130 his peopleH5971. 31BecauseH3588 he has 14despisedH959 the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 and has brokenH6565 His commandmentH4687, that personH5315 shall be completelyH3772 cutH3772 offH3772; 15his 16guiltH5771 will be on him.’”
32Now while the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 were in the wildernessH4057, they foundH4672 a manH376 17gatheringH7197 woodH6086 on the sabbathH7676 dayH3117.
