Leviticus 4:1-26 ▼

1 And the Lorde spake vnto Moyses, saying:

2 Speake vnto the chyldren of Israel, and saye, If a soule shall sinne through ignoraunce in any of the commaundementes of the Lord which ought not to be done, but shall do contrarie to any of them:

3 As yf the priest that is annoynted, do sinne accordyng to the sinne of the people, let hym bryng for his sinne which he hath sinned, a young bullocke without blemishe, vnto the Lorde for a sinne offeryng.

4 And he shall bryng the young bullocke vnto the doore of the tabernacle of the congregation before the Lord, and shall put his hand vpon the young bullockes head, and kill the young bullocke before the Lorde.

5 And the priest that is annoynted shall take of the young bullockes blood, and bryng it into the tabernacle of the congregation.

6 And the priest shall dippe his finger in the blood, and sprinckle therof seuen tymes before the Lorde, euen before the vayle of the sanctuarie.

7 And the priest shall put some of the blood before the Lord, vpon the hornes of the aulter of sweete insence, which is in the tabernacle of the congregation, & shall powre all the blood of the young bullocke vnto the bottome of the aulter of burnt offeryng, which is at the doore of the tabernacle of the congregation.

8 And he shall take away all the fat of the bullocke for the sinne offeryng, the fat that couereth the inwardes, and all the fat that is about the inwardes,

9 And the two kidneyes, and the fat that is vpon them, & vpon the flanckes, and the kall vpon the liuer shall he take away with the kidneys,

10 As it was taken away in the bullocke of the peace offeringes: and let the priest burne them vpon the aulter of burnt offeryng.

11 But the skinne of the young bullocke, and all his fleshe, with his head and his legges, with his inwardes & his doung, shall he beare out

12 And cary the whole bullocke altogether out of the hoast vnto a cleane place, euen where the asshes are powred out, & burne hym there on wood in the fire: euen by the place where the asshes are cast out, shall he be burnt.

13 If the whole congregation of Israel sinne through ignoraunce, & the thing be hyd from the eyes of the multitude, and haue done somewhat agaynst any of the comaundementes of ye Lorde which shoulde not be done, and haue offended:

14 Whe the sinne which they haue sinned is knowen, the congregatio shal bring a young bullocke for the sinne, & bring him before ye tabernacle of the congregation,

15 And the elders of the multitude shall put their handes vpon the head of the bullocke before the Lorde: And the bullocke shalbe slayne before the Lord.

16 And the priest that is annoynted, shall bryng of the bullockes blood into the tabernacle of the congregation.

17 And the priest shall dippe his finger in the blood, and sprinckle it seuen tymes before the Lorde, euen before the vayle.

18 And shall put of the blood vpon the hornes of the aulter, which is before the Lorde in the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall powre all the blood vnto the bottome of the aulter of burnt offeryng, which is before the doore of the tabernacle of the congregation.

19 And he shall take his fat from hym, and burne it vpon the aulter,

20 And shall do with this bullocke as he dyd with the bullocke for sinne, euen so shall he do with this: And the priest shal make an attonement for them, and it shalbe forgeuen them.

21 And he shall bryng this bullocke without the hoast, & burne him as he burned the first bullocke: For it is an oblation for the sinne of the congregation.

22 When a Lorde sinneth, and comitteth through ignorauce any of these thynges which the Lorde his God hath forbidden to be done in his commaundementes, and hath offended:

23 And if his sinne be shewed vnto hym which he hath done, he shall bryng his offeryng, euen an hee goate without blemishe,

24 And lay his hande vpon ye head of the hee goate, and kyll it in the place where the burnt offeryng is vsed to be kylled before ye Lorde: For it is a sinne offering.

25 And let the priest take of ye blood of the sinne offeryng with his finger, & put it vpon the hornes of the burnt offeryng aulter, and powre his blood vnto the bottome of the burnt offeryng aulter,

26 And burne all his fat vpon ye aulter, as ye fat of the peace offeringes: And ye priest shal make an attonement for him as cocerning his sinne, & it shalbe forgeue him.
