Laws for Sin Offerings
(Leviticus 5:1–13; Leviticus 6:24–30)

1And Jehovah will speak to Moses, saying, 2Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, When a soul shall sin in error from all the commands of Jehovah which shall not be done, and doing from after any of them: 3If the priest being anointed shall sin according to the guilt of the people; and he brought for his sin which he sinned, a bullock, the son of a cow, blameless to Jehovah for the sin. 4And he brought the bullock to the door of the tent of appointment, before Jehovah; and he placed his hand upon the head of the bullock, and slaughtered the bullock before Jehovah. 5And the priest being anointed, took the blood of the bullock, and brought it to the tent of appointment. 6And the priest dip his finger in the blood, and sprinkled from the blood seven times before Jehovah, before the vail of the holy place. 7And the priest gave from the blood upon the horns of the altar of the incense of aromatics before Jehovah, which is in the tent of appointment; and all the blood of the bullock he shall pour out at the foundation of the altar of burnt-offering, which is at the door of the tent of appointment. 8And all the fat of the bullock of the sin, he shall lift up from it: the fat covering over the bowels, and all the fat which is upon the bowels. 9And the two kidneys, and the fat which is upon them, which is upon the loins, and the lobe upon the liver, upon the kidneys, he shall take it away, 10As it shall be lifted up from the bullock of the sacrifice of peace: and the priest burnt them upon the altar of burnt-offering. 11And the skin of the bullock and all its flesh with its head and with its legs, and its bowels and its dung, 12And he brought forth all the bullock to from without the camp to a clean place, to the pouring out of the ashes, and burnt it upon the wood in fire: upon the pouring out of the ashes it shall be burnt.

13And if all the assembly of Israel shall err, and the word was hid from the eyes of the assembly, and they did behind from the commands of Jehovah, which shall not be done, and they were guilty, 14And the sin which they sinned against it being known, and the assembly brought a bullock, the son of a cow, for the sin, and they brought it before the tent of appointment. 15And the old men of the assembly placed their hands upon the head of the bullock before Jehovah: and slaughtered the bullock before Jehovah. 16And the priest being anointed brought the blood of the bullock to the tent of appointment. 17And the priest dipped his finger from the blood and sprinkled seven times before Jehovah, before the vail. 18And from the blood he will give upon the horns of the altar, which is before Jehovah in the tent of appointment, and he shall pour out all the blood at the foundation of the altar of the burnt-offering, which is at the door of the tent of appointment. 19And he shall lift up all the fat from it, and he burnt it upon the altar. 20And he did to the bullock as he did to the bullock of sin, thus he did to it; and the priest shall expiate for them, and it was forgiven to them. 21And he brought forth the bullock from without the camp, and he burnt it as he burnt the first bullock: it is the sin of the assembly:

22When a chief shall sin, and do one from all the commands of Jehovah his God, which he shall not do in erring, and being guilty, 23Or his sin being made known to him while he sinned in it; and he brought his offering, a he goat of the goats, a blameless male. 24And he placed his hand upon the head of the goat, in the place where he shall slaughter the burnt-offering before Jehovah: it is sin. 25And the priest took from the blood of the sin with his finger, and gave upon the horns of the altar of the burnt-offering, and he shall pour out the blood at the foundation of the altar of the burnt-offering. 26And all the fat he shall burn upon the altar as the fat of the sacrifice of peace: and the priest expiated for him from his sin, and it was forgiven to him.

27And if one shall sin from the people of the land in erring, in doing one from the commands of Jehovah which shall not be done, and being guilty; 28Or his sin being made known to him which he sinned: and he brought a she goat of the goats, a blameless female for his sin which he sinned. 29And he placed his hand upon the head of the sin, and he slaughtered the sin in the place of the burnt-offering. 30And the priest took from its blood with his finger, and gave upon the horns of the altar of the burnt-offering; and all the blood he will pour out at the foundation of the altar. 31And all the fat he will take away, as the fat shall be taken away from the sacrifice of peace; and the priest burnt upon the altar, for an odor of sweetness to Jehovah: and the priest shall expiate for him, and it shall be forgiven to him.

32And if he shall bring a lamb his offering for sin, a blameless female shall he bring. 33And he placed his hand upon the head of the sin, and slaughtered it for sin, in the place where he will slaughter the burnt-offering. 34And the priest took from the blood of the sin with his finger, and gave upon the horns of the altar of the burnt-offering; and all its blood he will pour out at the foundation of the altar. 35And all the fat he shall take away, as the fat of the lamb from the sacrifice of peace shall be taken away; and the priest burnt them upon the altar for sacrifices of Jehovah: and the priest expiated for him for his sin which he sinned, and it was forgiven to him.
