| Chapter
4 |
| 1 | And the
LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 2
| Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a soul shall sin through
ignorance against any of the commandments of the LORD concerning things which
ought not to be done, and shall do against any of them: |
| 3 | If the priest that is anointed do sin
according to the sin of the people; then let him bring for his sin, which he
hath sinned, a young bullock without blemish unto the LORD for a sin
offering. |
| 4 | And he shall
bring the bullock unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before
the LORD; and shall lay his hand upon the bullock's head, and kill the bullock
before the LORD. |
| 5 | And
the priest that is anointed shall take of the bullock's blood, and bring it to
the tabernacle of the congregation: |
|
6 | And the priest shall dip his finger in the blood, and sprinkle of
the blood seven times before the LORD, before the vail of the sanctuary. |
| 7 | And the priest shall put
some of the blood upon the horns of the altar of sweet incense before the LORD,
which is in the tabernacle of the congregation; and shall pour all the blood of
the bullock at the bottom of the altar of the burnt offering, which is at the
door of the tabernacle of the congregation. |
| 8 | And he shall take off from it all the fat of the bullock
for the sin offering; the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that
is upon the inwards, |
| 9 |
And the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, which is by the flanks, and
the caul above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he take away, |
| 10 | As it was taken off from the
bullock of the sacrifice of peace offerings: and the priest shall burn them
upon the altar of the burnt offering. |
| 11 | And the skin of the bullock, and all his flesh, with
his head, and with his legs, and his inwards, and his dung, |
| 12 | Even the whole bullock shall he carry
forth without the camp unto a clean place, where the ashes are poured out, and
burn him on the wood with fire: where the ashes are poured out shall he be
burnt. |
| 13 | And if the
whole congregation of Israel sin through ignorance, and the thing be hid from
the eyes of the assembly, and they have done somewhat against any of the
commandments of the LORD concerning things which should not be done, and are
guilty; |
| 14 | When the sin,
which they have sinned against it, is known, then the congregation shall offer
a young bullock for the sin, and bring him before the tabernacle of the
congregation. |
| 15 | And the
elders of the congregation shall lay their hands upon the head of the bullock
before the LORD: and the bullock shall be killed before the LORD. |
| 16 | And the priest that is anointed
shall bring of the bullock's blood to the tabernacle of the congregation: |
| 17 | And the priest shall dip
his finger in some of the blood, and sprinkle it seven times before the LORD,
even before the vail. |
| 18 |
And he shall put some of the blood upon the horns of the altar which is before
the LORD, that is in the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall pour out all
the blood at the bottom of the altar of the burnt offering, which is at the
door of the tabernacle of the congregation. |
| 19 | And he shall take all his fat from him, and burn it
upon the altar. |
| 20 | And
he shall do with the bullock as he did with the bullock for a sin offering, so
shall he do with this: and the priest shall make an atonement for them, and it
shall be forgiven them. |
| 21 |
And he shall carry forth the bullock without the camp, and burn him as he
burned the first bullock: it is a sin offering for the congregation. |
| 22 | When a ruler hath sinned, and
done somewhat through ignorance against any of the commandments of the LORD his
God concerning things which should not be done, and is guilty; |
| 23 | Or if his sin, wherein he hath sinned,
come to his knowledge; he shall bring his offering, a kid of the goats, a male
without blemish: |
| 24 | And
he shall lay his hand upon the head of the goat, and kill it in the place where
they kill the burnt offering before the LORD: it is a sin offering. |
| 25 | And the priest shall take of
the blood of the sin offering with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the
altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out his blood at the bottom of the
altar of burnt offering. |
| 26 |
And he shall burn all his fat upon the altar, as the fat of the sacrifice
of peace offerings: and the priest shall make an atonement for him as
concerning his sin, and it shall be forgiven him. |
|
27 | And if any one of the common people sin through
ignorance, while he doeth somewhat against any of the commandments of the LORD
concerning things which ought not to be done, and be guilty; |
| 28 | Or if his sin, which he hath sinned,
come to his knowledge: then he shall bring his offering, a kid of the goats, a
female without blemish, for his sin which he hath sinned. |
| 29 | And he shall lay his hand upon the
head of the sin offering, and slay the sin offering in the place of the burnt
offering. |
| 30 | And the
priest shall take of the blood thereof with his finger, and put it upon the
horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof
at the bottom of the altar. |
| 31
| And he shall take away all the fat thereof, as the fat is taken away
from off the sacrifice of peace offerings; and the priest shall burn it upon
the altar for a sweet savor unto the LORD; and the priest shall make an
atonement for him, and it shall be forgiven him. |
|
32 | And if he bring a lamb for a sin offering, he shall
bring it a female without blemish. |
|
33 | And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the sin offering, and
slay it for a sin offering in the place where they kill the burnt offering. |
| 34 | And the priest shall take
of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, and put it upon the horns of
the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof at the
bottom of the altar: |
| 35 |
And he shall take away all the fat thereof, as the fat of the lamb is taken
away from the sacrifice of the peace offerings; and the priest shall burn them
upon the altar, according to the offerings made by fire unto the LORD: and the
priest shall make an atonement for his sin that he hath committed, and it shall
be forgiven him. |
