New Living Translation
Numbers 15:22-29
22“But suppose you unintentionally fail to carry out all these commands that the Lord has given you through Moses.
23And suppose your descendants in the future fail to do everything the Lord has commanded through Moses.
24If the mistake was made unintentionally, and the community was unaware of it, the whole community must present a young bull for a burnt offering as a pleasing aroma to the Lord. It must be offered along with its prescribed grain offering and liquid offering and with one male goat for a sin offering.
25With it the priest will purify the whole community of Israel, making them right with the Lord, and they will be forgiven. For it was an unintentional sin, and they have corrected it with their offerings to the Lord—the special gift and the sin offering.
26The whole community of Israel will be forgiven, including the foreigners living among you, for all the people were involved in the sin.
27“If one individual commits an unintentional sin, the guilty person must bring a one-year-old female goat for a sin offering.
28The priest will sacrifice it to purify the guilty person before the Lord, and that person will be forgiven.
29These same instructions apply both to native-born Israelites and to the foreigners living among you.
